电针对创伤性颅脑损伤大鼠神经功能及损伤区脑组织p-JNK和Beclin-1表达的影响Effects of electroacupuncture on neurological function and expressions of p-JNK and Beclin-1 in traumatic brain injury rats
摘要
目的:观察电针对创伤性颅脑损伤(TBI)大鼠神经功能和磷酸化c-Jun氨基末端激酶(p-JNK)、Beclin-1表达的影响,探讨电针治疗TBI的可能机制。方法:将64只6周龄SD大鼠随机分为空白组、假手术组各8只,其余大鼠采用改良Feeney自由落体撞击法复制TBI模型并随机均分为模型组、电针组,进一步分为3、7、14 d 3个亚组,每组8只。电针组大鼠予“百会”“水沟”、右侧“内关”“足三里”针刺干预,“百会”留针15 min
Objective To observe the effect of electroacupuncture(EA) on neurological function
the expressions of phosphorylated c-Jun amino terminal kinase(p-JNK) and Beclin-1 in rats with traumatic brain injury(TBI)
so as to explore the underlying mechanism of EA in the treatment of TBI. Methods A total of 64 SD rats were randomly divided into blank
sham
modeling groups
with 8 rats in the blank group and the sham group and 48 rats in the modeling group. The modified Feeney free-fall impact method was used to establish the TBI rat model. After modeling
rats of the modeling group were randomly divided into model and EA groups
which were further divided into 3 d
7 d and 14 d subgroups with 8 rats in each group. Rats in the EA group were treated with acupuncture at “Baihui”(GV20
retained for 15 min)
“Shuigou”(GV26
stabbed for 20 s)
“Neiguan”(PC6) and “Zusanli”(ST36) of the right side. EA(2 Hz
1 mA) was applied to PC6 and ST36 for 15 min. The above treatments were performed once a day
and different subgroups were continuously stimulated for 3
7 and 14 days
respectively. The neurological impairment was evaluated by modified neurological severity score(mNSS). The pathological morphological changes and the protein expressions of p-JNK and Beclin-1 in the injured area of the brain were detected by Nissl staining and immunohistochemistry
separately. Results After modeling
the mNSS and the protein expressions of p-JNK and Beclin-1 were increased(P< 0.05) on day 3
7 and 14 in the model group relative to the sham group. The Nissl bodies were reduced or even dissolved and neurons were seriously damaged in the model group on the 3rd day
which were mildly repaired on day 7 and 14. Following acupuncture interventions
compared with the model group
the mNSS on day 7 and 14 and the protein expressions of p-JNK and Beclin-1 on day 3
7 and 14 were decreased(P< 0.05)in the EA group. The status of Nissl bodies and neurons in the EA group was better at all time points than that in the model group. There were no significant differences in the above indicators between the blank group and the sham group. Conclusion EA can significantly improve the neurological function of TBI model rats
which may be related to its effects in down-regulating the protein expressions of p-JNK and Beclin-1 in the injured area of the brain.
