A Combined Method for Immunohistochemistry and Autoradiographic Measurement of Focal Cerebral Blood Flow in Investigation of Pathophysiological Roles of Microcirculation in Cerebral Ischemia

  • Chapter
Microcirculation in Circulatory Disorders

Abstract

Measurement of focal cerebral blood flow (CBF) using quantitative autoradiography has provided valuable information in the investigation of cerebral ischemia [1]. However, the measurement of CBF alone has not been very successful for elucidation of the pathophysiological mechanism of cerebral ischemia and the selective tissue vulnerability, partly because of the lack of a sensitive morphological method for visualization of early ischemic damage. Since immunohistochemical techniques can detect early ischemic damage [2, 3], we aimed, in the present study, to establish a combined auto radiographic and immunohistochemical method for exact measurement of focal CBF in the area of an early immunohistochemical ischemic lesion. A more detailed description of the present work appears elsewhere [4].
