Abstract
According to the report of Korea National Statistical Office in 2007, cerebral vascular disease is second cause of deaths in Korean. Cerebral ischemia is one of the main reason of cerebral vascular diseases. To evaluate the neuroprotective effect of heyneanol A against cerebral ischemia, we used the middle cerebral artery occlusion model (MCAO). Heyneanol A from root of vitis amurensis Rup is a tetramer of resveratrol as known anti-oxidant and anti-cancer agent. Although the effects of resveratrol in the various fields have been well established, little is known of the effects of heyneanol A. In this study, heyneanol A reduced infarction and edema volume by 33.5% and 57% compared with control groups (vehicle), respectively. Also, neurological score was decreased by heyneanol A. It's effects were more potent than resveratol. Taken together, these results exerted that heyneanol A has a neuroprotective effect against cerebral ischemia.
