Alterations of the second-messenger systems, adenylate cyclase (AC) and protein kinase C (PKC), and local cerebral blood flow (lCBF) were evaluated during experimental cerebral ischemia in gerbils employing a quantitative autoradiographic method, which permitted these three parameters to be measured in the same brain. Ischemia was induced by occlusion of the right common carotid artery for 6 h. Animals attaining more than 5 in their ischemic scores were utilized for further experiments. At the end of ischemia, lCBF was measured by the [14C]iodoantipyrine method. The AC and PKC activities were estimated by the autoradiographic technique developed in our laboratory using [3H]forskolin (FK) and [3H]phorbol-12,13-dibutyrate (PDBu), respectively. The lCBF fell below 10 ml/100 g/min in most cerebral regions on the ligated side. The greatest reduction in FK binding was noted in the olfactory tubercle, caudate-putamen, and globus pallidus, followed by the hippocampus and cerebral cortices. The FK binding tended to be low at lCBF less than 20 ml/100 g/min in the cerebral cortices. However, the PDBu binding was relatively well preserved in each cerebral structure, and no significant correlation between lCBF and PDBu binding was noted in the cerebral cortices. The AC system may thus be vulnerable to ischemic insult over extensive brain regions, while the PKC system may be relatively resistant to ischemia.
