During progression and recovery of ischemia, extracellular purine catabolites were measured and compared with purine catabolites and adenine nucleotide levels in the tissue. Ischemia was induced by bilateral occlusion of the common carotid arteries in gerbil. Extracellular purine catabolites were sampled by in vivo brain microdialysis technique, and tissue adenine nucleotides and purine catabolites were extracted from in situ frozen and lypholized brain tissue. These metabolites were measured with simple method of isoclatic condition by HPLC system. Ischemia depleted tissue ATP and ADP, whereas AMP and purine catabolites accumulated strikingly. In parallel, extracellular purine catabolites increased as consecutive degradation on the biochemical metabolic pathway in the same animal. Levels of tissue ATP and adenosine normalized in the recovery phase of ischemia immediately. However, extracellular purine catabolites during the recovery are much higher than those during the progression of ischemia. These data indicated extracellular high levels of purine catabolites during the ischemic insult, and especially adenosine as neuromodulator which may turn off spontaneous neuronal activity and exert antiepileptic effects during the recovery rather than the progression of ischemia.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D011687 Purines A series of heterocyclic compounds that are variously substituted in nature and are known also as purine bases. They include ADENINE and GUANINE, constituents of nucleic acids, as well as many alkaloids such as CAFFEINE and THEOPHYLLINE. Uric acid is the metabolic end product of purine metabolism.
D001921 Brain The part of CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM that is contained within the skull (CRANIUM). Arising from the NEURAL TUBE, the embryonic brain is comprised of three major parts including PROSENCEPHALON (the forebrain); MESENCEPHALON (the midbrain); and RHOMBENCEPHALON (the hindbrain). The developed brain consists of CEREBRUM; CEREBELLUM; and other structures in the BRAIN STEM. Encephalon
D002546 Ischemic Attack, Transient Brief reversible episodes of focal, nonconvulsive ischemic dysfunction of the brain having a duration of less than 24 hours, and usually less than one hour, caused by transient thrombotic or embolic blood vessel occlusion or stenosis. Events may be classified by arterial distribution, temporal pattern, or etiology (e.g., embolic vs. thrombotic).
