Male Wistar-Kyoto rats, aged 22-24 months, were intracerebrally transplanted syngeneic mesenchymal stem cells (MSC). Cognitive functions of these animals were tested in 3 weeks. The density of microvascular bed, the tissue blood flow, saturation of mixed blood in cortex microvessels were measured under the standard conditions, under the impact of noradrenaline and in the context of global ischemia. The control groups consisted of rats aged 2-3 months and 22-24 months. MSC transplantation have a positive impact on the microcirculation in brain cortex of old animals: reduction of vascular density was prevented, level of saturation in the blood vessels was increased, which enabled animals to endure easier extreme impacts, but did not correct age-related deterioration of cognitive functions.

D008833 Microcirculation The circulation of the BLOOD through the MICROVASCULAR NETWORK. Microvascular Blood Flow,Microvascular Circulation,Blood Flow, Microvascular,Circulation, Microvascular,Flow, Microvascular Blood,Microvascular Blood Flows,Microvascular Circulations
D009638 Norepinephrine Precursor of epinephrine that is secreted by the ADRENAL MEDULLA and is a widespread central and autonomic neurotransmitter. Norepinephrine is the principal transmitter of most postganglionic sympathetic fibers, and of the diffuse projection system in the brain that arises from the LOCUS CERULEUS. It is also found in plants and is used pharmacologically as a sympathomimetic.

D002540 Cerebral Cortex The thin layer of GRAY MATTER on the surface of the CEREBRAL HEMISPHERES that develops from the TELENCEPHALON and folds into gyri and sulci.

D002545 Brain Ischemia Localized reduction of blood flow to brain tissue due to arterial obstruction or systemic hypoperfusion. This frequently occurs in conjunction with brain hypoxia (HYPOXIA, BRAIN). Prolonged ischemia is associated with BRAIN INFARCTION.
