Abstract | Ischemic stroke is a syndrome of severe neurological responses that cause neuronal death, damage to the neurovascular unit and inflammation. Notoginsenoside R1 (NG-R1) is a neuroprotective drug that is commonly used to treat neurodegenerative and cerebrovascular diseases. However, its potential mechanisms on the regulation of small molecule metabolism in ischemic stroke are largely unknown. The aim of this study was to explore the potential mechanisms of NG-R1 on the regulation of small molecule metabolism after ischemic stroke. Here, we found that NG-R1 reduced infarct size and improved neurological deficits by ameliorating neuronal damage and inhibiting glial activation in MCAO/R rats. Furthermore, using matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization mass spectrometry imaging (MALDI-MSI), we clarified that NG-R1 regulated ATP metabolism, the tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle, the malate-aspartate shuffle, antioxidant activity, and the homeostasis of iron and phospholipids in the striatum and hippocampus of middle cerebral artery occlusion/reperfusion (MCAO/R) rats. In general, NG-R1 is a promising compound for brain protection from ischemic/reperfusion injury, possibly through the regulation of brain small molecule metabolism. |
