Ischemia is defined as cell death caused by insufficient perfusion of the tissue due to reduction in arterial or venous blood flow, depletion of cellular energy storages, and accumulation of toxic metabolites. The positive effects of controlled reperfusion are known and are used clinically. But the positive effects of controlled reperfusion on ovarian tissue have not been seen in the literature yet. The biochemical and histopathological comparative investigation of rat ovaries that were experimentally exposed to ischemia (IG), ischemia-reperfusion (I/R), and ischemia-controlled reperfusion (ICR) was aimed. Forty rats were divided into four groups (10 rats per group). First group: 3 h ischemia by vascular clips on ovarian tissue. Second group: 3 h ischemia + 1 h reperfusion. Third group: 3 h ischemia + 1 h controlled reperfusion (on-off method: controlled reperfusion by opening and closing the clips (on/off) in 10-second intervals, for 5 times for a total of 100 seconds). Fourth group: healthy rats. Biochemical (tGSH, MDA, and DNA damage level and SOD activity) and histopathological analysis were performed. The highest glutathione and superoxide dismutase measurements were found in ischemia/controlled reperfusion group among the ischemia or ischemia/reperfusion groups. Similarly the damage indicators (malondialdehyde, DNA damage level and histopathological damage grade) were the lowest in ischemia/controlled reperfusion group. These results indicate that controlled reperfusion can be helpful in minimizing ischemia-reperfusion injury in ovarian tissue exposed to ischemia for various reasons (ovarian torsion, tumor, etc.).

Objective: To study NF-κB and IL-6 expression in a rat retina that has been inj ured by ischemia-reperfusion and the effect of β-aescin on its expression.Methods: A retinal model of the rat retina for ischemia-reperfusion was establi s hed. 60 SD rats were divided into two groups: one was an ischemia-reperfusion g r oup and the other was an ischemia-reperfussion and β-aescin group. Each group wa s then divided into sub-groups according to the amount of time after ischemia- re perfusion:1 hour,6 hours,12 hours,24 hours,48 hours,and 72 hours. Each sub -group consisted of 5 rats. NF-κB mRNA and IL-6 mRNA in the rat retina was m easured by the ISH method. Each rat was examined by ERG before being sacrificed.Results: NF-κB and IL-6 began to express at 6 hours after ischemia-reperfusio n i n the ischemia-reperfusion group. The highest level of expression occurred 24 h o urs after injury. In the ischemia-reperfusion and β-aescin group,the NF-κB and IL-6 expressed at 12 hours after ischemia-reperfusion injury and reached the hi ghest level at 24 hours. However,its level was lower than the level for the isc hemia-reperfusion group at every stage(P0.05). The b wave of the ERG in the is chemia-reperfusion group was lower than that for the ischemia-reperfusion and β-aescin group at every stage(P0.05).Conclusion: NF-κB may induce IL-6 and play an important role in ischemia-reperfusion inj ury in the rat retina. The β-aescin may suppress NF-κB activity and protect the retina from injury caused by ischemia-reperfusion.

[Objective]To study the IL-6 express in rat's retina which injuried by ischemia-reperfusion and the effect of β-aescin on its expression. The model of rat's retina ischemia-reperfusion was employed. 60 SD rats were devided into two groups, one was ischemia-reperfusion group, the other was ischemia-reperfusion andβ-aescin group. Every group was devided into 1 hour, 6 hour, 12 hour, 24 hour, 48 hour and 72 hour groups. Every group had 5 rats. IL-6 mRNA was measured by ISH method in rat's retina. Every rat was examinated ERG before executed. IL-6 began to express at 6 hours after ischemia-reperfusion in ischemia-reperfusion group. It expressed most at 24 hours after ischemia-reperfusion injury. In ischemia-reperfusion and β-aescin group, IL-6 expressed at 12 hours after ischmia-reperfusion injury and reached the hightest level was lower than ischemia-reperfusion group at every stage (P 0.05). The a wave of ERG of ischemia-reperfusion group was lower than ischemia-reperfusion and β-aescin group at every stage (P 0.05). [Conclusion] IL-6 take important role in rat's retina ischemia-reperfusion injury, the β-aescni may suppress the activity of IL-6 and relieve the retina injury from the ischemia-reperfusion.

Objective:The retina ischemia-reperfusion injury is caused by many factors. A lot of cell factors take part in it. Many researches suggest MCP-1 has special effect on leukocyte and lymphocyte.The research try to study the effect of MCP-1 in rat's retina ischemia-reperfusion injury.Methods:To employ the rat's retina ischemia-reperfusion model and use SABC method to test the expression of MCP-1 on retina.Results:There was no MCP-1 expressed in retina after ischemia-reperfusion injury for one hour. MCP-1 began to express in retina after ischemia-reperfusion injury for six hours, and expressed at most after ischemia-reperfusion injury for 24 hours. Then it began to decrease in 48 hours after ischemia-reperfusion injury, but it still expressed in retina in seventy-two hours after ischemia-reperfusion injury.Conclusions:MCP-1 plays an important role in rat's retina ischemia-reperfusion injury.
