Effects of Tuina on Astrocytes and Neurons in Spinal Dorsal Horn of Rats with Chronic Sciatic Nerve Crush Injury
摘要
Abstract
Objective:To observe the effect of tuina on astrocytes and neurons in rats with chronic constriction injury(CCI),and to explore the poten-tial mechanism of action of tuina in the treatment of neuropathic pain.Methods:Forty SD rats were randomly divided into 5 groups(n=8):control group,model group,tuina group,astrocyte inhibitor group and astrocyte inhibitor + tuina group.All groups except the control group were established CCI model.From the 4th day after modeling,the tuina group received pressing-kneading intervention for 10 minutes/time/day,and the astrocyte in-hibitor group received intrathecal injection of fluorocitrate(FCA)10ul/rat/day.The astrocyte inhibitor + tuina group was treated with intrathecal in-jection of FCA and pressing and knead Weizhong points for 14 days.The expression of glial fibrillary acidic protein(GFAP)protein in the spinal dor-sal horn was detected by immunofluorescence.The changes in the morphology,arrangement and number of neurons in the spinal dorsal horn were ob-served by Ni staining.The correlation between GFAP expression level and the number of surviving neurons was analyzed.Results:Compared with the control group,the mechanical pain threshold of the model group decreased significantly(P<0.01);After tuina intervention,the threshold of the tuina group gradually increased compared with the model group,and there was a significant difference after 14 days of cumulative treatment(P<0.01).From the 7th day of FCA injection,the pain threshold of the astrocyte inhibitor group and the astrocyte inhibitor + tuina group increased sig-nificantly(P<0.01).Compared with the control group,the expression of GFAP in the spinal dorsal horn of the model group was significantly in-creased(P<0.01),the morphology of neurons was irregular,loosely arranged,and the number of neurons was reduced(P<0.01).After tuina treat-ment,GFAP expression was down-regulated(P<0.01),the morphology of neurons tended to be regular,the arrangement tended to be neat,and the number of neurons increased(P<0.01).After FCA injection,GFAP expression levels in the astrocyte inhibitor group and the astrocyte inhibitor+tuina group were significantly lower than those in the model group(P<0.01).Compared with the model group,the morphology and arrangement of neu-rons in the model group were more regular and the number was increased(P<0.01).Correlation analysis showed that the mean fluorescence intensity of GFAP was negatively correlated with the number of surviving neurons(r=-0.4649,P<0.05).Conclusion:Tuina can alleviate the pain behavior of CCI rats and reduce the damage of spinal dorsal horn neurons,and its mechanism may be related to the inhibition of astrocyte activation.关键词
