In order to evaluate the potential involvement of immediate early genes in ischemic tolerance, we examined Fos- and Jun-related protein immunoreactivity in gerbil brain. Two minutes of preconditioning ischemia or sham operation was followed by 3-min ischemia 3 days later. The animals were sacrificed after 4 h to 7 days of survival. Fos immunoreactivity was seen in dentate hilar neurons 4 h after 3-min ischemia regardless of preconditioning. Jun immunoreactivity increased in dentate granule cells 4 h after 3-min ischemia without preconditioning. Prominent Jun immunoreactivity was induced in astrocytes in the CA1 region of the gerbils with ischemic tolerance. The result suggests that Jun may contribute to the ischemic tolerance by inducing changes in gen expression in astrocytes.

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.

D006624 Hippocampus A curved elevation of GRAY MATTER extending the entire length of the floor of the TEMPORAL HORN of the LATERAL VENTRICLE (see also TEMPORAL LOBE). The hippocampus proper, subiculum, and DENTATE GYRUS constitute the hippocampal formation. Sometimes authors include the ENTORHINAL CORTEX in the hippocampal formation.

D000818 Animals Unicellular or multicellular, heterotrophic organisms, that have sensation and the power of voluntary movement. Under the older five kingdom paradigm, Animalia was one of the kingdoms. Under the modern three domain model, Animalia represents one of the many groups in the domain EUKARYOTA.

D001253 Astrocytes A class of large neuroglial (macroglial) cells in the central nervous system - the largest and most numerous neuroglial cells in the brain and spinal cord. Astrocytes (from "star" cells) are irregularly shaped with many long processes, including those with "end feet" which form the glial (limiting) membrane and directly and indirectly contribute to the BLOOD-BRAIN BARRIER. They regulate the extracellular ionic and chemical environment, and "reactive astrocytes" (along with MICROGLIA) respond to injury.

D016755 Proto-Oncogene Proteins c-jun Cellular DNA-binding proteins encoded by the c-jun genes (GENES, JUN). They are involved in growth-related transcriptional control. There appear to be three distinct functions: dimerization (with c-fos), DNA-binding, and transcriptional activation. Oncogenic transformation can take place by constitutive expression of c-jun. c-fos-Associated Protein p39,c-jun Proteins,fos-Associated Protein p39,jun B Proteins,jun D Proteins,jun Proto-Oncogene Proteins,p39(c-jun),Proto-Oncogene Products c-jun,Proto-Oncogene Proteins jun,jun Proto-Oncogene Product p39,p39 c-jun,Proto Oncogene Products c jun,Proto Oncogene Proteins c jun,Proto Oncogene Proteins jun,c fos Associated Protein p39,c jun Proteins,fos Associated Protein p39,jun Proto Oncogene Product p39,jun Proto Oncogene Proteins,p39 c jun
