Abstract
Taohong siwu decoction (THSWD) has been shown to have a therapeutic effect on ischemic strokes (IS). However, it is not clear to us whether THSWD reduces deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) damage after stroke and reduces the inflammatory response caused by the damage. Therefore, we constructed an IS model (I/R) in rats and performed oxygen-glucose deprivation/reoxygenation (OGD/R) on BV2 cells. Then ELISA, immunofluorescence staining, immunohistochemistry staining, and RT-qPCR were performed to detect the expressions of absent in melanoma 2 (AIM2), NLRC4, and Caspase-1 inflammasomes and other inflammatory factors. Experimental stroke causes DNA damage, and we found that the aforementioned inflammasomes as well as inflammatory factors were significantly inhibited after treatment with THSWD by comparing the model group with the model administration group. In addition, we examined the expression of AIM2, NLRC4, and Caspase-1 in BV2 cells of OGD/R and found that the expression of the aforementioned inflammasomes was significantly decreased in OGD/R by administration of THSWD-containing serum. Our data suggest that THSWD can reduced DNA damage after stroke as well as the inflammatory response caused by the damage.
