The tail-cuff method was used to assess systolic blood pressure, as previously described. At 48 weeks of age, the rats were assessed, with 2 days of tailcuff blood pressure training followed by 3 days of measurements. On each measurement day, two sets of measurements were taken, each with up to five independent measurements. Animals were tested on a daily basis at roughly the same time.

Stroke is the leading cause of motor impairments and a leading cause of death around the world. Adult stem cells have been found to protect neurons from degeneration through mechanisms that include neurotransmitter activity recovery as well as a reduction in apoptosis and oxidative stress. As a model for stem cells, we used the lineage stroke-prone spontaneously hypertensive rat (SHRSP).Recent research suggests that to restore the loss of cells in the nervous system, particular combinations of therapies are required, based on the already existing neural network as well as the blood supply and intrinsic mechanisms of healing. MSCs have been shown to give birth to neural cells in vitro and in vivo in numerous investigations. Bone marrow stem cells may become involved after an ischemic event. Before the trials, bone marrow-derived stem cells were tested for the presence of mesenchymal surface antigens (CD90 and CD105) and the absence of haematological markers (CD45, c-kit,and Sca1). CD45, c-kit, Sca1, CD105, and CD90 antibodies (Molecular Probes)were conjugated to R-phycoerythrin.

The 48-week-old SHRSP rats were sedated with a 60 mg/kg intraperitoneal dose of sodium thiopental for MSC transplantation.The skin on the back around the injection site was shaved, alcohol-wiped, and left to dry. In all, 1106 MSCs from passage 3 were suspended in 10 liter’s of PBS and injected into the cisterna magna via the atlanto-occipital artery. Thirty days following the transplantation surgery, the animals were slaughtered. The rats were sedated with sodium thiopental (60 mg/kg, intraperitoneal) to observe the transplanted MSCs. After that, the mice were transcardially perfused with 0.1 M PBS (pH 7.4) and 4 percent paraformaldehyde in 0.1 M phosphate buffer (pH 7.4). The brains were removed and post fixed for 24 hours in the same fixative. Following transplantation, brain sections were submitted to immunohistochemistry to detect the double staining of CFSE and CD90, confirming the transplanted cells' mesenchymal nature and no differentiation. Processed tissues were post fixed for 30 minutes in 4% paraformaldehyde, permeabilized with 0.1 percent TritonX-100, and incubated at room temperature with APC-conjugated antiCD90 (1:300; Molecular Probes).

Neuronal DNA damage of apoptotic cells was verified by terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase-mediated biotinylated-dUTP nick-end labeling (TUNEL) staining. TUNEL assay was per-formed using the In Situ Cell Death Detection Kit Fluorescence (Roche Applied Science, Mannheim, Germany) as per the manufacturer’s instructions. After rinsing frozen tissue slices in PBS for 5 minutes, they were treated with Our findings also revealed that superoxide production was higher in SHRSP rats than in WKY rats, and that this enhanced production was linked to an increase in the occurrence of apoptosis (Figs. 8 and10). These findings point to a complicated link between oxidative stress and hypertension and stroke pathogenesis. The level of superoxideanion was reduced in the treated mice.

During blood pressure measurements, the rats in both groups were 48 weeks old on average. The pressure was 112.8 mm Hg on average, with a standard deviation of 2 mm Hg. The SHRSP rats' average blood pressure was 210.9 mm Hg, with a standard variation of 3 mm Hg. The average blood pressure of the SHRSP rats was considerably greater than the average blood pressure of the WKY rats.
