Several days following transient ischemia/reperfusion treatment, apoptotic degenerative changes in hippocampal neurons in gerbil brain are observed. Cerebral ischemia increases the activity of astrocyte and microglia, and this cellular response may play a key role in brain injury development. In the present study, changes in astrocyte (GFAP) and microglia (Iba-1) in lycopene-induced neurodegenerative depression were investigated using Mongolian gerbil brains. In addition, we measured inflammatory cytokines (IL-1β and TNF-α) using ELISA. Animals were fed either a normal or a lycopene-containing diet (5 mg/100 g feed) freely. After attaining a body weight of 60-65 g, animals were subjected to transient cerebral ischemia for 10 min or a sham operation. Animals were decapitated under flothane anesthesia, and the brains were removed at intervals of 3h, 1, 3 and 7day post-treatment. GFAP and Iba-1 expression in the hippocampus were analyzed using Western blotting. Expression of GFAP and Iba-1 protein in the hippocampus gradually increased in control (ischemia and non-lycopene) group after ischemia/reperfusion. In contrast, GFAP and Iba-1 protein level was significantly lower in lycopene-treated ischemia group than the control group at 7d after ischemia. The results indicate that astrocyte and microglia activation decreased in the gerbil hippocampus due to lycopene and suggest that the oral administration of lycopene could protect neurons from ischemic damage.
