摘要
Ornithine decarboxylase (ODC) transgenic and alpha-difluoromethyl ornithine (DFMO)-treated rats were exposed to transient middle cerebral occlusion (MCAO) to examine the role of intraischaemic ODC-activity on the evolution of ischaemia-reperfusion damage. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) data show that the damage develops slower in ODC transgenic than in DFMO-treated rats, which is not caused by a difference in perfusion. Furthermore, infarct volumes are smaller in the former animals one day later. These data support the idea of endogenous neuroprotective action of ODC. (C) 1999 Elsevier Science B.V.
