甘草酸调控水通道蛋白4表达影响创伤性脑损伤后神经元活性的研究
Regulation of aquaporin 4 expression by glycyrrhizin acid affects neuronal activity after traumatic brain injury
摘要
Abstract
Objective To explore the effects of glycyrrhizic acid(GA)on neurons injury in traumatic brain injury(TBI)rats and the possible mechanism.Methods The rats were randomly divided into sham-operation group,model group,control group and experimental-L,-M,-H groups,with 20 rats each group.The sham-operation group was only treated with craniotomy;the other 5 groups were used to establish TBI models by extracorporeal shock method.At 0,24 and 48 h after modeling,the experimental-L,-M,-H groups were intraperitoneally injected with 10,50 and 100 mg·kg-1 GA solution,respectively;control group was intraperitoneally injected with 2 mg·kg-1 nimodipine;sham-operation and model groups were intraperitoneally injected with the equal volume of phosphate buffered solution.The degree of neurological dysfunction was evaluated by cerebral edema and modified neurological severity score(mNSS).The apoptosis rates of neurons in rat brain tissue was evaluated by apoptosis staining.Western blot was used to analyze the expression levels of apoptosis-related proteins and aquaporin 4(AQP4)protein.Results The mNSS scores of experimental-M,-H groups,control group,model group,sham-operation group were(6.98±0.82),(5.28±0.37),(5.91±0.52),(13.28±1.59)and(0.36±0.01)points;the degrees of brain edema were(63.27±10.33)%,(60.09±9.38)%,(66.86±9.91)%,(85.92±11.93)%and(52.17±8.53)%;the apoptosis rates of neurons were(6.81±0.73)%,(5.39±0.25)%,(5.87±0.62)%,(15.13±3.29)%and(2.56±0.03)%;the relative expression levels of B cell lymphoma 2(Bel-2)protein were 0.49±0.06,0.68±0.15,0.62±0.03,0.13±0.03 and 0.95±0.13;the relative expression levels of Bel-2 associated X protein were 0.61±0.08,0.55±0.17,0.39±0.09,0.92±0.19 and 0.16±0.02;the relative expression levels of AQP4 protein were 0.69±0.15,0.38±0.03,0.47±0.09,0.86±0.13 and 0.13±0.09,respectively.There were statistically significant differences in the above indexes between the model group and the experimental-M,-H groups and control group(all P<0.05).Conclusion GA is able to reduce the brain edema degree and neurological dysfunction in TBI rats,and inhibit neuronal damage and apoptosis,and the mechanism of action may be associated with the inhibition of AQP 4 expression.关键词
