The role of Müller cells in the preconditioned retinal ischemic injury rat was investigated. In anesthetized Sprague Dawley rats, retinal ischemia for 5 minutes constituted the preconditioning stimulus for the left eye. After 24 hours, both eyes were clamped for 60 minutes. In 30, 60, 90, and 120, minutes and 1 day, 3 days, and 7 days after ischemia, electroretinograms were recorded, and the eyeballs were enucleated. After fixation with 4% paraformaldehyde, the avidin-biotin-peroxidase technique was applied to show glutamine synthetase (GS) and glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP). Furthermore, for the solubilized retinas, Western blot analysis and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay were performed to detect GS and GFAP in the extracts. Preconditioning performed 24 hours before ischemia significantly improved the recovery of the a-, and b-waves 1 day after 60 minute ischemia. In the 30, 60, 90, and 120 minutes after ischemia, the recovery of the a-wave only was observed. There was a nonsignificant trend toward greater recovery in the first 120 minutes after 60 minute ischemia, especially in the b-wave. GS immunoreactivity had no significant difference between non-preconditioned and preconditioned groups 30, 60, 90, and 120 minutes after ischemia. In 1 day after ischemia, GS immunoreactivity decreased in both groups. In 3 and 7 days after ischemia, GS immunoreactivity recovered only in the preconditioned group. The retinas at 3 and 7 days after 1 hour of ischemia showed increased GFAP immunoreactivity in the non-preconditioned group. In the preconditioned group, only slight GFAP immunoreactivity was observed. These results suggested that the mechanism of preconditioned retinal ischemia may be related to Müller cells in the retina.
