The effect of glyproline-containing peptide MGHPPGP (Met-Glu-His-Phe-Pro-Gly-Pro) was studied in experiments on male Wistar rats with modeled traumatic brain injury. The peptide was administered intraperitoneally in a dose of 1 mg/kg in 3 h and on days 2, 3, 4, 5 after injury. We evaluated morphometric parameters of the epithelial cells of the tongue, small intestine, and liver cells (AgNOR staining), neuronal layers II and V of the neocortex of the parietal lobe and hippocampal CA1 field (staining with gallocyanin) were evaluated in the post-traumatic period. Traumatic brain injury (TBI) was induced in rats by using the impact model (WDM; weight drop method). MGHPPGP peptide corrected the activity indicators of the nuclear organizer regions in epitheliocytes of the tongue.

Cerebrovascular diseases (CVDs) are one of the leading causes of death and disability In Russia: they rank second in the structure of mortality from diseases of the circulatory system and in the overall mortality of the population. Successful treatment of CVD involves an integrated approach to the problem, taking into account the compensation of cardiovascular disorders, the elimination of neurological and psychopathological syndromes, the improvement of cerebral circulation and the use of neuroprotective agents that increase the resistance of brain tissue to hypoxia and ischemia. Insufficient clinical efficacy of neuroprotectors is due to a number of objective reasons, of which only two are universal.
