- Abstract
Selenium has been shown to possess antioxidant and neuroprotective effects by modulating mitochondrial function and activating mitochondrial biogenesis. Our previous study has also suggested that selenium protected neurons against glutamate toxicity and hyperglycemia-induced damage by regulating mitochondrial fission and fusion. However, it is still not known whether the mitochondrial biogenesis is involved in selenium alleviating hyperglycemia-aggravated cerebral ischemia reperfusion (I/R) injury. The object of this study is to define whether selenium protects neurons against hyperglycemia-aggravated cerebral I/R injury by promoting mitochondrial biogenesis. In vitro oxygen deprivation plus high glucose model decreased cell viability, enhanced reactive oxygen species production, and meanwhile stimulated mitochondrial biogenesis signaling. Pretreated with selenium significantly decreased cell death and further activated the mitochondrial biogenesis signaling. In vivo 30 min of middle cerebral artery occlusion in the rats under hyperglycemic condition enhanced neurological deficits, enlarged infarct volume, exacerbated neuronal damage and oxidative stress compared with normoglycemic ischemic rats after 24 h reperfusion. Consistent to the in vitro results, selenium treatment alleviated ischemic damage in hyperglycemic ischemic animals. Furthermore, selenium reduced the structural changes of mitochondria caused by hyperglycemic ischemia and further promoted the mitochondrial biogenesis signaling. Selenium activates mitochondrial biogenesis signaling, protects mitochondrial structure integrity and ameliorates cerebral I/R injury in hyperglycemic rats.
