摘要

目的:

研究电针 (EA) 对奥沙利铂诱导的大鼠周围神经病变 (OIPN) 的影响.

方法:

雄性SD大鼠按随机数字表法分为3组:对照组、OIPN组和EA (OIPN + EA)组

每组10只. 测定机械敏感度、冷敏感性和微循环血流强度的时间进程. 电镜观察背根神经节(DRG)的形态. Western blot检测DRGs中核因子E2相关因子2 (Nrf2)、血红素加氧酶-1 (HO-1)和瞬时受体电位(TRP)蛋白家族的表达水平.

Abstract

Objective:

To study the effect of electroacupuncture (EA) on oxaliplatin-induced peripheral neuropathy (OIPN) in rats.

Methods:

Male Sprague-Dawley rats were equally divided into 3 groups using a random number table: the control group

the OIPN group

and the EA (OIPN + EA) group

with 10 rats in each. The time courses of mechanical

cold sensitivity

and microcirculation blood flow intensity were determined. The morphology of the dorsal root ganglion (DRG) was observed by electron microscopic examination. The protein levels of nuclear factor E2-related factor 2 (Nrf2)

heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1)

and the transient receptor potential (TRP) protein family in DRGs were assayed by Western blot.

Results:

EA treatment significantly reduced mechanical allodynia and cold allodynia in OIPN rats (

0.01). Notably

oxaliplatin treatment resulted in impaired microcirculatory blood flow and pathomorphological defects in DRGs (

0.01). EA treatment increased the microcirculation blood flow and attenuated the pathological changes induced by oxaliplatin (

0.01). In addition

the expression levels of Nrf2 and HO-1 were down-regulated

and the TRP protein family was over-expressed in the DRGs of OIPN rats (

0.01). EA increased the expression levels of Nrf2 and HO-1 and decreased the level of TRP protein family in DRG (

0.05 or

0.01).

Conclusion:

EA may be a potential alternative therapy for OIPN

and its mechanism may be mainly mediated by restoring the Nrf2/HO-1 signaling pathway.
