丁香酚联合中医五行音乐疗愈改善特应性皮炎症状及引起的焦虑抑郁样行为
Effects of eugenol combined with traditional Chinese medicine five-elements music therapy on symptoms of atopic dermatitis and associated anxiety-and depression-like behaviors
摘要
Abstract
Objective To explore the effects of eugenol combined with traditional Chinese medicine Wuxing music(EUG+MUSIC)on skin inflammation,behavioral characteristics,hormone and neurotransmitter levels,and the intestinal microbiota in a mouse model of 2,4-dinitrofluorobenzene(DNFB)-induced atopic dermatitis(AD).Methods A mouse model of AD was established by induction with DNFB for 21 consecutive days;throughout the study,changes in dorsal skin lesions and scratching behavior were recorded in mice and changes in dorsal skin lesions and pruritus were recorded.Mice underwent open-field,elevated 0 maze,tail-suspension,and forced-swimming tests on days 19 and 20.The mice were then sacrificed on day 21 and the organ index was calculated.Serum levels of immunoglobulin E,interleukin(IL)-4,and IL-10 were determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay.Pathological changes in back-skin sections were detected by hematoxylin-eosin(HE)and toluidine blue staining,and brain levels of corticosterone,dopamine,and serotonin were measured.The composition of the intestinal microbiota was analyzed by 16S rRNA gene sequencing.Results The skin lesion score and skin inflammatory cell infiltration were significantly reduced in the EUG+MUSIC group.Regarding the behavioral tests,mice in the EUG+MUSIC group showed more active locomotion,an increased desire to explore unfamiliar environments,and increased struggling time in stressful situations.Brain levels of serotonin,dopamine,and corticosterone were also increased in the EUG+MUSIC group.16S rRNA gene sequencing showed that DNFB affected the diversity of the intestinal microbiota in AD mice,while EUG+MUSIC treatment remodeled the gut microbial composition,including increasing the relative abundance of gut microbes such as Ligilactobacillus and Lachnospiraceae and decreasing Parabacteroides and Bacteroides spp.Spearman's analysis showed significant correlations among altered gut microbiota,AD-associated skin manifestations,and anxiety-and depressive-like behaviors arising from comorbidities.Conclusions Eugenol combined with traditional Chinese medicine five-elements music therapy may have a positive effect on comorbid anxiety-and depression-like behaviors by regulating the intestinal microbiota and improving the behavioral performance in mice with AD,thus providing new ideas and method for improving AD and its associated anxiety-and depressive behaviors.关键词
