title="The protective effect of Wnt3a on inflammatory response in oxygen-glucose deprivation/reoxygenation (OGD/R) astrocyte model",
abstract="Involving in the immune response after cerebral infarction, astrocytes could secrete large amounts of pro- and anti-inflammatory factors. The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of Wnt3a intervention on the inflammatory response of oxygen-glucose deprivation (OGD) followed by reoxygenation (OGD/R) astrocyte model, and to provide a new target for immunoprotective treatment of cerebral infarction. We constructed the OGD/R rat astrocyte model, the astrocytes were treated by different concentrations of glucose (25, 50, 100 mM) intervened with/without Wnt3a (25 µg/ml). Microscope was used to observe the cell survival in rat astrocytes. The relative expression of inflammatory factors (TNF-a, IL-6, HIF-a) in rat astrocytes was detected by qRT-PCR. The expression of inflammatory factors such as TNF-a, IL-6 and HIF-a in rat astrocytes was increased after OGD/R treatment. The Wnt3a intervention promoted cell survival and decreased the expression of inflammatory factors in rat astrocytes induced by OGD/R. There is a neuroprotective effect that Wnt3a intervention could reduce inflammatory response in the OGD/R rat astrocyte model.",
