Calcitriol treatment reduced apoptotic cell death after traumatic brain injury in rats.
Calcitriol treatment was associated with decreased LC3II/LC3I ratio and decreased p62 expression after traumatic brain injury, and chloroquine pretreatment increased LC3II/LC3I ratio in the calcitriol group.
Calcitriol treatment increased vitamin D receptor protein expression after traumatic brain injury in rats.
The protective effects of calcitriol after traumatic brain injury might be associated with restoration of autophagy flux and decreased apoptosis in rat cortex.
