MicroNAR-194-5p hinders the activation of NLRP3 inflammasomes and alleviates neuroinflammation during intracerebral hemorrhage by blocking the interaction between TRAF6 and NLRP3.

The possible role of miR-194-5p in brain and neurodegenerative diseases has been reported, but its role in intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) has not been studied. This study estimated the mechanism of miR-194-5p in ICH. ICH rat model was established by injecting collagenase type VII.

[Effects of naoyian serum on VEGF protein expression in cultured rat cerebral microvascular endothelial cell with hypoxia].

Objective: To determine the effects of naoyian (NYA) serum on the expression of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) protein in cultured rat cerebral microvascular endothelial cell (RCMEC) with hypoxia.

Methods: NYA serum was separated from rat heart which had been filled stomach with NYA successively for 3 days. The rat cerebral microvascular endothelial cells were taken from the Sprageu-Dawley rat brain at postborn 7 days.
