However, the translation of these results to usually elderly and sick patients moreover taking many various medicines has to date been disappointing. 3-Methyltin (TMT) poisoning and short-term transient cerebral ischemia cause similar damage, especially, to selectively vulnerable brain regions such as hippocampal CA1 and CA3. Methods: Using dual conditioning, we activated the full ischemic tolerance the products of which are located to blood plasma. As sublethal stresses, two periods of 20-minute hind-limb ischemia was used with a two-day interval in rats. Active plasma was isolated 6 h after the second hind limb ischemia. Brain damage was detected by visualizing dead neurons by Fluoro-Jade B staining and neuronal survival by NeuN immunoreaction. The functional capabilities of the surviving neurons were monitored by the Morris water maze. Results: The use of activated plasma dramatically reduced the hippocampal degenerative CA1 neurons from 56.59% to 7.51%. NeuN positivity was increased from 23.82% to 78.67%. Time spent searching for a hidden island in the Morris water maze was shortened from 48.46 to 21.63 s. Conclusions: By using double conditioning it is possible to provoke the synthesis of substances present in the blood plasma, providing the organism with significant protection against acute degenerative processes.
