Many experimental surgerical procedures have been perfomed in the analyse of the phenomenon of brain trophism and plasticity, however undesirable intercorrence can occour leading to specific changes in the results that should be taken into attention. To study this issue we have promoted a transient cardiogenic interruption of the blood flow together with a transient occlusion of the bilateral common carotid arteries (2VO) in rats and analysed the state of activation of astrocyte and microglia by means of the glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) and OX42 immunohistochemistry, respectively. Rats were submitted to incomplete global cerebral ischemia (IGCI) by occlusion of the bilateral carotid arteries for 30 minutes. During the IGCI surgical, some rats received a higher dose of the chloral hydrate anaesthesia which promoted a cardiogenic interruption of the blood flow (CIBF) for a period of 10 minutes followed by and prompt reperfusion. During that period, animals were submited to a cardiac massage and ventilated. Sham operation were made in control animals. Rats were killed and their brains processed 14 days after the surgery. The animals that have received a IGCI showed a slight astroglial and microglial reaction in all subfields of the hippocampal formation, however the animal submitted to CIBF showed a massive infiltration of the reactive astrocyte and microglia in CA1 subfield. This results demonstrated that a transient occlusion of the bilateral common carotid arteries leads to activation of glial cells in the hippocampus, however this response can be remarkable changed in animal developing a transient systemic hypoperfusion during surgery. Thus, an accurated monitoration of the hemodinamic condition of the animal has to be done in experimental models of brain ischemia and the results have to be analysed in view of this aspect.

Platelets are implicated as etiologic agents in cerebral ischemia and as modulators of neural injury following an ischemic insult. We examined the effects of severe, transient global ischemia on platelet aggregation during 45-min ischemia and 30-, 60-, and 120-min reperfusion in adult and neonatal lambs. We also examined postischemic platelet deposition in brain and other tissues (120-min reperfusion) using indium-111-labeled platelets. Ischemic cerebral blood flow fell to 5 ± 1 and 5 ± 2 ml ⋅ min−1⋅ 100 g−1in lambs and sheep, respectively. During ischemia, platelet counts fell to 47.5 ± 5.1% of control ( P < 0.05) in lambs and 59 ± 4.9% of control in sheep ( P < 0.05). Ischemia depressed platelet aggregation response ( P < 0.01) to 4 μg collagen in lambs and sheep (20.4 ± 29.2 and 26 ± 44.7% of control, respectively). Marked platelet deposition occurred in brain and spleen in sheep, whereas significant platelet entrapment occurred only in brain in lambs. Our findings suggest that ischemia causes platelet activation and deposition in brain and noncerebral tissues.
