Abstract
Ischemic tolerance determines resistance to lethal ischemia gained by a prior sublethal stimulus (i.e., preconditioning). We reproduced this effect in two variants. In vitro the preliminary short (5 s) photodynamic treatment (PDT) (photosensitizer Photosens, 10 nM, 30 min preincubation; laser: 670 nm, 100 mW/cm2) significantly reduced the necrosis of neurons and glial cells in the isolated crayfish stretch receptor, which was caused by following 30-min PDT by 66% and 46%, respectively. In vivo PDT of the rat cerebral cortex with hydrophilic photosensitizer Rose Bengal (i.v. administration, laser irradiation: 532 nm, 60 mW/cm2, 3 mm beam diameter, 30 min) caused occlusion of small brain vessels and local photothrombotic infarct (PTI). It is a model of ischemic stroke. Cerebral tissue edema and global necrosis of neurons and glial cells occurred in the infarction core, which was surrounded by a 1.5 mm transition zone, penumbra. The maximal pericellular edema, hypo- and hyperchromia of neurons were observed in penumbra 24 h after PTI. The repeated laser irradiation of the contralateral cerebral cortex also caused PTI but lesser as compared with single PDT. Preliminary unilateral PTI provided ischemic tolerance: at 14 day after second exposure the PTI volume significantly decreased by 24% than in the case of a single exposure. Sensorimotor deficits in PDT-treated rats was registered using the behavioral tests. The preliminary PTI caused the preconditioning effect.
