Neuroprotective effects of Ghrelin on traumatic brain injury in mice
Objective
To investigate the neuroprotective effect of Ghrelin on traumatic brain injury (TBI) in mice.
Methods
TBI model of C57BL / 6 mice was established by electronic cortical impact instrument (eCCI). According to the random figure table method, twenty-four mice were randomly divided into sham group(Sham group), TBI group and Ghrelin intervention group(Ghrelin group) with 8 mice in each group. The model of TBI was established in TBI group and Ghrelin group.The mice in Ghrelin group was injected intraperitoneally 0.5 g/kg before and 1 h after injury respectively. And the mice Sham group and TBI group were injected with the same amount of normal saline. The changes of cerebral blood perfusion (CBP) were monitored in real time by laser speckle contrast analysis(LSCI), the changes of neuroelectrophysiology were observed by monitoring motor evoked potential (MEP), and the status of neurological deficit was evaluated by modified neurological deficit score (mNSS).
Results
Compared with Sham group, the mice in TBI group had significantly lower cerebral blood perfusion(CBP) (t=-12.36, P<0.01), longer latency and lower amplitude of motor evoked potential (MEP) (t=5.03, -11.55, all P<0.01), and significantly higher mNSS scores (t=9.34, P<0.01). However, compared with the TBI group, the cerebral blood perfusion(CBP) of Ghrelin group increased significantly at 12 h after TBI((196.87±17.36) PU/mm2vs (123.62±8.04)PU/mm2, t=10.45, P<0.01), while the latency of MEP decreased((5.30±0.33)ms vs (6.80±0.97)ms, t=-5.01, P<0.01), the amplitude of MEP increased((2.21±0.16)mV vs (1.27±0.27)mV, t=9.65, P<0.01). And compared with the TBI group, the neurological deficit score of Ghrelin group decreased significantly at 24 h after TBI((4.9±1.2) vs (8.4±2.6), t=-3.87, P<0.01).
Conclusion
Ghrelin exhibits a significant neuroprotective role by increasing cerebral blood flow perfusion, reducing the degree of neurological deficit and promoting motor function recovery in TBI mice.

"Chinese Journal of Behavioral Medicine and Brain Science" (CN 37-1468/R, ISSN 1674-6554) is a national academic journal under the supervision of the National Health Commission, sponsored by the Chinese Medical Association and Jining Medical College. The journal was founded in June 1992 and was formerly known as "Chinese Journal of Behavioral Medicine" (1992-1993) and "Chinese Behavioral Medical Science" (1994-2008). In 2009, it was renamed "Chinese Journal of Behavioral Medicine and Brain Science" with the approval of the State Administration of Press, Publication, Radio, Film and Television.
The purpose of "Chinese Journal of Behavioral Medicine and Brain Science" is to implement the health and health policies of the Party and the State, implement the principle of combining theory with practice and popularization and improvement, and reflect the major progress in the theory and practical application of behavioral medicine and brain science in my country. It publishes academic papers and scientific research results in the field of behavioral medicine and brain science in my country, and has columns such as monographs/reviews, basic research, clinical research, health prevention, methods and techniques, psychological behavior and evaluation, and systematic evaluation.
