[0002] Cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury is an important pathophysiological process of cerebrovascular disease, and its occurrence and development are related to multiple factors, including oxidative stress, inflammatory response, and cell apoptosis. Establishing an effective model of cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury is of great significance for studying these mechanisms. Currently, commonly used methods include suture method and photochemical induction method, but these methods have problems such as complex operation and unstable results.
[0003] After searching, the application scheme of Chinese patent application number CN202311625123.X discloses the use of gastrodin in the preparation of JAK2-STAT3 signaling pathway inhibitors and anti-cerebral ischemia reperfusion injury drugs. The middle cerebral artery ischemia (MCAO) model of SD rats was constructed by the thread embolism method, and the glucose-oxygen deprivation / reoxygenation (OGD / R) model of BMEC cells was constructed in vitro. The gastrodin was intervened with different concentrations, and the expression of JAK2, STAT3, phosphorylated JAK2, phosphorylated STAT3, oxidative stress and apoptosis levels before and after the intervention of gastrodin was detected. In the above patent, the middle cerebral artery ischemia (MCAO) model of SD rats was constructed by the thread embolism method, which has the above-mentioned problems such as complex operation and unstable results.

The method for establishing a cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury model according to claim 1, characterized in that: The data analysis of S7 includes: Neurological function score: Garcia test was used to evaluate the degree of neurological deficit at different time points after surgery; Determination of brain edema volume: Calculate the edema space ratio after obtaining image information through magnetic resonance imaging scan; Detection of inflammatory factor levels: Peripheral blood samples were drawn and centrifuged to separate serum, and ELISA kits were used to quantitatively measure the content of TNF-α and IL-1β mediators; Histological evaluation: Fresh brain tissue sections were taken for HE staining to observe the morphological and structural changes; Molecular biology analysis: After RNA was extracted and reverse transcribed into cDNA, the target gene fragment was amplified by qPCR technology to explore the activation status of related signaling pathways.
8. The method for establishing a cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury model according to claim 7, characterized in that: In S7, the measurement of brain edema volume includes: MRI scanning preparation: ensure that the magnetic resonance imaging machine is in the best working condition and all parameter settings meet the requirements. Fix the rat on the special scanning bed and fix the head with ear bars; Image acquisition: T2-weighted image sequence was used for cross-sectional scanning of the brain, with the slice thickness set to 1 mm, and the image acquisition work within the whole brain was completed according to the preset plan; Data analysis: use medical imaging analysis software to process the original images, remove background noise, manually or automatically identify the edema boundary, and calculate its space occupancy ratio; In S7, the detection of inflammatory factor levels includes: For sample collection, the first, third, and seventh days after surgery were selected as sampling days. 0.5 mL of peripheral blood was drawn by tail vein puncture and placed in EDTA anticoagulant tubes; Serum separation: fresh whole blood samples were placed in a low-temperature centrifuge and spun at 3000 rpm for 10 minutes. The upper clear liquid was taken out as the serum. The obtained serum was divided into several small portions and frozen in a -80℃ refrigerator for later use. For ELISA experiment operation, prepare various necessary reagents, including standard substances and enzyme-labeled antibodies, according to the instructions of the manual, add the samples to be tested and the control substances to the microplate pre-coated with specific antigens, let it stand at room temperature for 1 hour, discard the liquid in the wells and wash several times with PBST buffer, then add the substrate solution and incubate in the dark for an appropriate period of time until the color appears. After terminating the reaction, immediately read the OD value of each well with an enzyme reader, and convert the corresponding concentration value according to the standard curve.
9. The method for establishing a cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury model according to claim 7, characterized in that: In S7, the histological evaluation includes: After fixation, the whole brain was taken out and placed on an operating table under ice bath condition, and then immediately immersed in 4% paraformaldehyde solution for at least 24 hours to allow it to be fully cross-linked and solidified; HE staining sections were prepared by dehydrating with graded ethanol concentrations and then immersed in xylene until completely transparent. The processed sample blocks were embedded in a melted paraffin mold and cooled to form, cut into 5 μm slices, and then subjected to hematoxylin-eosin staining procedures; Observe and take pictures under a microscope. First use a low-magnification lens to view the overall morphological features, then switch to a high-magnification objective to carefully observe changes in the cell structure and take pictures for archiving.
10. The method for establishing a cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury model according to claim 7, characterized in that: In S7, the molecular biological analysis comprises: RNA extraction and purification: take fresh or frozen tissue, add TRIZOL reagent, shake vigorously, and let it stand for a few minutes to release the nucleic acid. Add an equal volume of chloroform, shake vigorously for tens of seconds, centrifuge and separate, and then aspirate the upper aqueous phase to continue the subsequent steps. Add 0.5 times the volume of isopropanol to the supernatant, mix it upside down and let it stand for a while to precipitate RNA. Rinse the precipitate repeatedly with 75% ethanol to remove residual impurities, and finally air-dry it naturally to obtain pure RNA powder; cDNA synthesis reverse transcription, using DNase I to digest the total RNA sample to eliminate potential genetic material interference factors, mix the oligo primers, dNTPs, and M-MLV reverse transcriptase components in proportion in an EP tube, and then heat and denature briefly, control the temperature cycle conditions, and promote the synthesis of complementary DNA chains, i.e. cDNA products, under the guidance of the mRNA template; qPCR amplification detection, a pair of specific oligonucleotide probes are specially customized for the target gene sequence for subsequent quantitative analysis. The template cDNA is diluted and mixed with SYBR Green dye and buffer and evenly distributed into each PCR tube and sealed. The real-time quantitative PCR instrument is used to dynamically monitor the changes in fluorescence intensity generated during the entire amplification process, thereby indirectly reflecting the number of copies of the target fragment.
