Embodiment 1
[0022] Example 1: The dose-dependent effect of ramelteon on permanent cerebral ischemic injury
[0023] Mouse model of permanent cerebral ischemia
[0024] For focal cerebral ischemia, the middle cerebral artery (MCAO) of C57BL / 6 mice was blocked by suture method. The branches of the external carotid artery were ligated and cut off, and the thread was inserted into the ring of William's to block the beginning of the middle cerebral artery. In the sham operation group, the nylon thread was only inserted about 0.5 cm, and the thread was left for 24 hours. At the same time, Doppler laser cerebral blood flowmeter was used to monitor the blood flow in the infarcted brain area, and the animals whose blood flow dropped below 20% of the baseline value after ischemia were selected.
[0025] Neurological symptom score and calculation of cerebral infarction volume
[0026] The degree of neurological damage was evaluated by neurological symptom score; the infarct volume was calculated b...
Embodiment 2
[0028] Example 2: The optimal administration time window of ramelteon against permanent cerebral ischemic injury
[0029] Using the pMCAO model, 3 mg / kg ramelteon was administered at different time points (0h, 4h, 6h) after pMCAO model establishment, and the neurological symptoms of each group of animals at different time points after ischemia were investigated and scored. After the brain was removed, the volume of cerebral infarction was measured by TTC staining method. The results showed that administration within 6 hours after cerebral ischemia in mice could significantly reduce the volume of cerebral infarction ( figure 2 ), suggesting that 0-6h after acute cerebral ischemia is the best administration time window for ramelteon treatment. *P<0.05, **P<0.05v.s pMCAO group (n=6)
Embodiment 3
[0030] Example 3: MT 2 Melatonin receptor inhibitor 4-P-PDOT effectively inhibits the brain protection of ramelteon
[0031] Using the pMCAO model, preoperative intraperitoneal injection of specific MT 2 The melatonin receptor inhibitor 4-P-PDOT was given ramelteon by intragastric administration, and the neurological symptoms of animals in each group were observed and scored after 24 hours of ischemia. After the brain was removed, the volume of cerebral infarction was measured by TTC staining method. As a result, it was found that the cerebral infarction volume and neurological symptom scores of mice given 4-P-PDOT and ramelteon were significantly greater than those of ramelteon alone ( image 3 ), suggesting that 4-P-PDOT can effectively inhibit the anti-ischemic effect of ramelteon. *P<0.05v.s ramelteon administration group (n=6)
