Abstract

The work addresses neuroprotectoral action of Lornoxicam, a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug, on rats with modeled ischemic insult (OMCA) and ischemic insult complicated with reperfusion injury (OMCA+RI). In the first case we irreversibly coagulated the medial cerebral artery and the frontal vein; in the latter case two carotid arteries were clamped in addition to OMCA and reperfused in one hour. Lornoxicam was injected intravenously 20 minutes after the beginning of ischemia and intra-abdominally 24 and 72 hours later. A dosage of 230 mkg/kg recommended for humans was used. Possible protective action of the drug was studied 28 days after OMCA in each experimental group of N=3 species. We have observed three main morphological effects of Lornoxicam: 1) Lornoxicam induced 25-40 % reduction of cerebral cortex necrosis size both for rats with OMCA and with OMCA+RI; 2) neuroglial index was significantly reduced in 28 days after the surgery due to increase in number of survived neurons in the penumbra area; 3) the volume of neuron nuclei significantly increased for animals with insult.
