Subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) is a severe cerebrovascular disease with few effective pharmacotherapies available. Salvia miltiorrhiza, a traditional Chinese medicinal herb, has been widely used to treat cardiovascular diseases for centuries. Recent studies have demonstrated that magnesium lithospermate B (MLB), a bioactive ingredient extracted from Salvia miltiorrhiza, exerts neuroprotective effects in several central nervous system insults. However, little is known about the role of MLB in SAH-induced brain injury and the exact molecular mechanism. In the current study, we studied the neuroprotective effects of MLB in SAH and explored the potential mechanism. Adult male Sprague-Dawley rats were subjected to an endovascular perforation process to produce an SAH model. MLB was administrated intraperitoneally at 30[Formula: see text]min after SAH with a dose of 25[Formula: see text]mg/kg or 50[Formula: see text]mg/kg. We found that administration of MLB significantly attenuated brain edema and neurological deficits after SAH. In addition, immunofluorescence staining demonstrated that MLB dose-dependently inhibited the activation of microglia and reduced neuronal apoptosis. Western blot analysis showed that MLB decreased the expression of inflammatory cytokine TNF-[Formula: see text] and pro-apoptotic protein cleaved caspase-3. More importantly, MLB increased the expression of SIRT1, while inhibited the acetylation of NF-[Formula: see text]B. Furthermore, pretreatment with sirtinol (a selective inhibitor of SIRT1) reversed all the aforementioned effects of MLB after SAH. In conclusion, our results indicated that MLB exerted robust neuroprotective effects against SAH via suppressing neuroinflammation and apoptosis. These neuroprotective effects of MLB against SAH might be exerted via regulating the SIRT1/NF-[Formula: see text]B pathway. MLB or the SIRT1/NF-[Formula: see text]B pathway could be a novel and promising therapeutic strategy for SAH management.
