OBJECTIVE: Cerebral blood perfusion (CBP) reduction is a prevalent complication following subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) in clinical practice, often associated with long-term cognitive impairment and prognosis. Electroacupuncture (EA), a widely utilized traditional Chinese therapy for central nervous system disorders, has demonstrated promising therapeutic effects. This study aims to investigate the therapeutic potential of EA in restoring CBP in SAH rats and to explore the mechanisms involving HIF-1α in this process.
METHODS: Rats were randomly assigned to one of five groups, including Sham, SAH, EA, EA + Saline, and EA + dimethyloxallyl glycine (DMOG) groups. EA treatment was administered for 10 min daily, while DMOG were intraperitoneally injected. Behavioral tests, cerebral blood flow monitoring, vascular thickness measurement, western blotting, and immunofluorescence staining were conducted to assess the therapeutic effects of EA on cerebral blood flow.
RESULTS: SAH resulted in elevated levels of HIF-1α, endothelin (ET), ICAM-1, P-SELECTIN, E-SELECTIN, and decreased level of eNOS in the brain. This led to cerebral vasospasm, decreased CBF, and cognitive deficits in the rat SAH model. EA intervention downregulated the expression of HIF-1α, ET, ICAM-1, P-SELECTIN, and E-SELECTIN, while increasing eNOS expression. This alleviated cerebral vasospasm, restored CBF, and improved cognitive function. However, the administration of the HIF-1α stabilizer (DMOG) counteracted the therapeutic effects of EA.
CONCLUSION: EA promotes the recovery of cerebral blood flow after SAH injury, attenuates cerebral vasospasm, and accelerates the recovery of cognitive dysfunction, and its mechanism of action may be related to the inhibition of the HIF-1α signaling pathway.
