Combination treatment with progesterone and rehabilitation training further promotes behavioral recovery after acute ischemic stroke in mice

Abstract: Purpose: The present study was aimed to investigate whether combination treatment with progesterone and rehabilitation training would be more effective than monotherapy after cerebral ischemia. Methods: C57BL/6 mice were subjected to focal ischemia by photothrombosis and were treated with progesterone (2 mg/kg), rehabilitation training or their combination. 2,3,5-triphenyltetrazolium chloride (TTC) staining and Nissl staining were used to measure infarct size at day 3 and day 7 after surgery, and rotarod test … Show more

“…Rehabilitation could increase reorganization of cortical maps whereas the progesterone might reduce the infarct volume through its neuroprotective effect by targeting excitotoxicity. Although this combination had no additional effect in reducing infarct volume, functional recovery effectiveness was promoted as shown by the increased rotarod performance and forelimb grip strength at all time points within 7 days after ischemic stroke [ 32 ].…”

“…The second consideration is whether early locomotor exercise combined with other rehabilitative treatments or drugs is more reasonable than locomotor exercise only. 146,147 A related rehabilitative treatment may be functional electrical stimulation, acupuncture, music stimulus, light stimulus, skilled training, and so on. Drugs can include multiple agents that alleviate inflammatory response and neuronal apoptosis and promote angiogenesis and neurogenesis.…”

“…Progesterone treatment can improve the neurological function of rats with brain injury, and its mechanism may be related to the regulatory of progesterone on immuneinflammatory after brain injury [6]. In animal experiments of acute toxic injury, traumatic injury, spinal cord injury, and the central nervous system stroke, the application of progesterone therapy can delay the necrosis and apoptosis of nerve cells in model animals, reduce the inflammatory reaction and brain edema caused by ischemic brain injury, promote the synthesis of brain myelin sheath, and promote the reconstruction of the blood-brain barrier [7][8][9].…”
