摘要
背景:目前已有研究发现曲克芦丁对脑部疾病有明显的改善作用,但是关于曲克芦丁对脑梗死治疗及神经元细胞影响的研究较少。目的:探究曲克芦丁调控核因子κB信号通路对脑梗死大鼠脑损伤及神经元凋亡的作用机制。方法:选取清洁级大鼠50只,将其随机分为健康组、模型组、曲克芦丁+核因子κB激动剂组、曲克芦丁组、核因子κB抑制剂组,后4组均采用动脉结扎法建立脑梗死大鼠模型。健康组及模型组采用等量生理盐水灌胃处理,曲克芦丁+核因子κB激动剂组采用72 mg/kg曲克芦丁灌胃+20 mg/kg RANK腹腔注射干预,曲克芦丁组采用72 mg/kg曲克芦丁灌胃处理,核因子κB抑制剂组采用120 mg/kg核因子κB抑制剂二硫代氨基甲酸吡咯烷进行腹腔注射,各组给药均1次/d,均连续干预30 d。药物干预完成后24 h,采用Zea-longa检测大鼠神经功能损伤,苏木精-伊红染色观察脑组织病理改变,TUNEL法检测神经元凋亡,采用免疫印迹法及PCR检测核因子κB p65、核因子κB p50蛋白及mRNA表达水平。结果与结论:①与健康组比较,模型组大鼠神经功能评分、神经元凋亡率、核因子κB p65、核因子κB p50 mRNA及蛋白表达水平升高(P<0.05);②与模型组比较,曲克芦丁+核因子κB激动剂组神经功能评分、神经元凋亡率、核因子κB p65、核因子κB p50 mRNA及蛋白表达水平降低(P<0.05);③与曲克芦丁+核因子κB激动剂组比较,曲克芦丁组、核因子κB抑制剂组神经功能评分、神经元凋亡率、核因子κB p65、核因子κB p50 mRNA及蛋白表达水平降低(P<0.05),且曲克芦丁组与核因子κB抑制剂组比较无差异(P>0.05);④模型组大鼠脑组织有大量神经元细胞胞质空泡化,明显水肿和坏死现象及大量炎性细胞浸润现象;曲克芦丁+核因子κB激动剂组脑组织肿胀减轻,网状结构和固缩细胞减少,仍伴有部分水肿;曲克芦丁组及核因子κB抑制剂组脑组织肿胀和神经元水肿变性、细胞胞质空泡化及神经元细胞核固缩减少,炎症细胞浸润明显降低;⑤提示曲克芦丁能够降低脑梗死大鼠神经功能损伤表达、抑制神经元凋亡及改善其脑组织病理损伤,其作用机制可能与调控核因子κB及相关信号通路的表达相关。
BACKGROUND:Troxerutin has been found to have a significant ameliorative effect on brain disorders,but there are fewer studies on the effects of troxerutin on the treatment of cerebral infarction and on neuronal cells.OBJECTIVE:To investigate the mechanism by which troxerutin regulates nuclear factor-κB signaling pathway to reduce brain injury and neuronal apoptosis in cerebral infarction rats.METHODS:Fifty clean grade rats were randomized into healthy group,model group,and troxerutin+nuclear factor-κB agonist group,troxerutin group,and nuclear factor-κB inhibitor group.Except for the healthy group,all other groups were used to establish a rat model of cerebral infarction by arterial ligation.The healthy and model groups were treated once a day with an equal amount of physiological saline by gavage.The troxerutin+nuclear factor-κB agonist group was intervened with 72 mg/kg troxerutin by gavage+20 mg/kg RANK intraperitoneally.The troxerutin group was treated with 72 mg/kg troxerutin by gavage.The nuclear factorκB inhibitor group was intervened intraperitoneally with 120 mg/kg nuclear factorκB inhibitor pyrrolidine disulfiram.Administration in each group was given once a day for 30 continuous days.Zea-longa was used to detect neurological damage in rats,hematoxylin-eosin staining was used to observe pathological changes,TUNEL was used to detect neuronal apoptosis,and immunoblotting and PCR were used to detect the expression of nuclear factor-κB p65 and nuclear factor-κB p50 at protein and mRNA levels,respectively.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Compared with the healthy group,the neurological function score,neuronal apoptosis rate,nuclear factor-κB p65,nuclear factor-κB p50 mRNA and protein expression levels were elevated in the model group(P<0.05).Compared with the model group,the neurological function score,neuronal apoptosis rate,nuclear factor-κB p65 and nuclear factor-κB p50 mRNA and protein expression levels were decreased in the troxerutin+nuclear factor-κB agonist group(P<0.05).Compared with the troxerutin+nuclear factor-κB agonist group,the neurological function score,neuronal apoptosis rate,nuclear factor-κB p65 and nuclear factor-κB p50 mRNA and protein expression levels were reduced in the troxerutin group and nuclear factor-κB inhibitor group(P<0.05).In addition,there was no difference between the troxerutin group and the nuclear factor-κB inhibitor group(P>0.05).In the model group,there was a large number of cytoplasmic vacuolation,obvious edema and necrosis,and a large number of inflammatory cell infiltrations.In the troxerutin+nuclear factor-κB agonist,the swelling of brain tissue was reduced,and reticulate structures and condensed cells were reduced,still with some edema.In the troxerutin group and nuclear factor-κB inhibitor group,brain tissue swelling,neuronal edema degeneration,cytoplasmic vacuolation and neuronal nucleus consolidation were reduced,and the inflammatory cell infiltration was significantly decreased.To conclude,troxrutin can reduce the expression of neurological impairment,inhibit neuronal apoptosis and improve the pathological injury of brain tissue in rats with cerebral infarction,and its mechanism of action may be related to the modulation of nuclear factor-κB expression and related signaling pathways.
