Astragalin Regulates Autophagy and Apoptosis of Astrocytes in L4-5 Spinal Dorsal Horn of Mouse Inflammatory Pain Model
摘要
Abstract
[Objective]To explore the effects of astragalin(AST)on autophagy and apoptosis of astrocytes in the L4-5 dorsal horn of the spinal cord in mice with inflammatory pain induced by complete Freund's adjuvant(CFA).[Methods]Twenty-four male C57BL/6 mice,aged six months,were randomly assigned to four groups:control group,saline group,CFA model group,and CFA+AST group,six mice in each group.The inflammatory pain model was established by injection of 10 μL CFA into the right lateral malleolus fossa.The saline group were injected with an equal amount of normal saline at the same site.The inflammatory pain mice in CFA+AST group were further treated with AST(60 mg/kg)intraperitoneally once a day for 21 consecutive days.Multiplex immunofluorescence staining was used to detect the coexpression of autophagy-related factors including ATG 12 and Beclin-1,apoptosis-related factors including Cleaved-Caspase3 and Caspase9,and the astrocyte marker such as GFAP in the L4-5 spinal dorsal horn of the mice in each group.Western blot was used to examine the protein expression levels of autophagy-related proteins(ATG12,Beclin-1)and apoptosis-related proteins(Caspase 3,Caspase 9)in the L4-5 spinal dorsal horn of mice.[Results]Immunofluorescent staining showed that in the L4-5 dorsal horn of the spinal cord,the fluorescence intensity of ATG12(P<0.000 1)and Beclin-1(P<0.000 1)was significantly increased,while that of Cleaved-Caspase 3(P<0.001)and Caspase 9(P<0.000 1)was decreased in the CFA+AST group when compared to the CFA model group.Furthermore,AST could inhibit the activation of astrocytes.Western blot further confirmed that AST significantly upregulated the expression of ATG12(P<0.000 1)and Beclin-1(P<0.000 1)in the L4-5 spinal cord of CFA mice,and downregulated the expression of Caspase 3(P<0.01)and Caspase 9(P<0.001).[Conclusions]AST promotes autophagy of astrocytes and inhibits their apoptosis in the L4-5 spinal dorsal horn of CFA mice.关键词
