PG - 289-96 AB - The relationship between local cerebral blood flow (ICBF) and local cerebral glucose metabolism (ICGU) at the chronic stage of focal cerebral ischaemia was assessed in young stroke-prone spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHRSP) following occlusion of the distal middle cerebral artery (MCA). On day 7 following this occlusion, ICBF and ICGU were measured by autoradiographic methods using 14C-iodoantipyrine and 14C-2-deoxyglucose (2DG), respectively. The infarct was limited to the ipsilateral cerebral cortex. A narrow band of increased uptake of 14C-2DG was observed in the border zone at the periphery of infarcted areas. The ICBF in the ischaemic cortex revealed a graded reduction from the ischaemic centre to the surrounding tissues. A significant reduction in ICGU coupled to CBF was also observed in 4 of 13 selected noninfarcted regions ipsilateral to the MCA occlusion. The ischaemic regions had a significant increase in water content. The region with ischaemic oedema was limited to a narrow area compared with the findings regarding ICBF and ICGU. The SHRSP strain has more severe cerebral ischaemia, oedema formation, and metabolic derangement at the chronic stage of focal ischaemia, compared to normo-tensive animals.
