摘要
背景:巴豆霜能够激活ERK通路、对神经元细胞具有抗凋亡作用,是否具有抑制JNK、p38通路的激活而发挥抗凋亡的协同效应尚不清楚。目的:探讨巴豆霜对脑缺血再灌注损伤大鼠缺血侧皮质区神经元损伤和凋亡的影响及机制。方法:①将90只SD大鼠随机分为假手术组,模型组,巴豆霜低、中、高剂量组,尼莫地平组,每组15只,除假手术组外,剩余各组均采取线栓法制备大脑中动脉栓塞大鼠模型,巴豆霜各组大鼠分别按剂量20,40,60 mg/kg灌胃;假手术组和模型组大鼠给予等量生理盐水,1次/d,连续给药7 d。运用神经功能缺损评分、TTC染色、脑组织含水量、苏木精-伊红染色及尼氏染色筛选出最佳浓度即巴豆霜高剂量。②将120只SD大鼠随机分为假手术组、模型组、巴豆霜组、JNK抑制剂组、巴豆霜+JNK抑制剂组、p38 MAPK抑制剂组、巴豆霜+p38 MAPK抑制剂组和尼莫地平组,每组15只,除假手术组外,剩余各组大鼠均制备大脑中动脉栓塞大鼠模型,在造模之前30 min,将10μL JNK抑制剂SP600125或10μL p38 MAPK抑制剂SB203580分别注射到大鼠侧脑室,巴豆霜各组大鼠灌胃60 mg/kg巴豆霜,7 d后,采用Western Blot、TUNEL染色及流式细胞术检测各组大鼠脑组织JNK/p38 MAPK信号通路及凋亡相关蛋白水平及细胞凋亡情况。结果与结论:①与假手术组相比,模型组神经功能缺损评分、脑含水量、脑梗死体积、细胞凋亡率显著升高(P<0.05),神经细胞呈散乱分布;与模型组相比,巴豆霜中、高剂量组和尼莫地平组大鼠神经功能缺损评分、脑组织含水量、脑梗死体积显著降低(P<0.05),神经细胞病理形态明显改善;②与JNK抑制剂组相比,巴豆霜+抑制剂组大鼠脑组织p-JNK/JNK、p-p38/p38、Bax表达显著降低(P<0.05),细胞凋亡率显著降低(P<0.05),而Bcl-2表达显著升高(P<0.05);③结果提示,巴豆霜可能通过抑制JNK/p38 MAPK信号通路的激活、减少神经元凋亡等途径,达到对脑缺血再灌注损伤大鼠的神经保护作用。
BACKGROUND:Croton cream can activate ERK pathways and have anti-apoptotic effects on neuronal cells.It is not clear whether it synergistically exerts antiapoptotic effects by inhibiting the activation of JNK and p38 pathways.OBJECTIVE:To explore the effects and mechanisms of croton cream on neuronal damage and apoptosis in the ischemic cortex of rats with cerebral ischemiareperfusion injury.METHODS:(1)Ninety Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into sham operation group,model group,croton cream low-dose group,croton cream medium-dose group,croton cream high-dose group and nimodipine group,with 15 rats in each group.Except for the sham operation group,animal models of middle cerebral artery occlusion were prepared in rats by the thread method.Rats in the three croton cream groups were given 20,40,and 60 mg/kg croton cream,respectively.Rats in the sham operation and model groups were given the same amount of normal saline,once a day,for 7 consecutive days.The optimal concentration of croton cream,namely the high dose of croton cream,was selected based on neurological deficit score,TTC staining,brain tissue water content,hematoxylin-eosin staining and Nissl staining.(2)Another 120 Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into sham operation group,model group,croton cream group,JNK inhibitor group,croton cream+JNK inhibitor group,p38 MAPK inhibitor group,croton cream+p38 MAPK inhibitor group,and nimodipine group,with 15 rats in each group.Animal models of middle cerebral artery occlusion were prepared using the thread method in all the groups except in the sham operation group.Thirty minutes before modeling,10μL of SP600125(JNK inhibitor)and 10μL of SB203580(p38 MAPK inhibitor)were injected into the lateral ventricle of the rats,respectively.Rats in croton cream groups were intragastrically given 60 mg/kg croton cream.Seven days later,the JNK/p38 MAPK signaling pathway,apoptosis-related proteins and cell apoptosis were detected by western blot,TUNEL staining and flow cytometry,respectively.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)Compared with the sham operation group,neurological deficit score,cerebral water content,cerebral infarction volume and apoptosis rate were significantly increased in the model group(P<0.05),where nerve cells showed scattered distribution.Compared with the model group,neurological deficit score,water content of brain tissue and cerebral infarction volume were significantly decreased in the croton cream medium-dose group,high-dose group and nimodipine group(P<0.05),and the pathological morphology of nerve cells was significantly improved.(2)Compared with the JNK inhibitor group,p-JNK/JNK,p-p38/p38 and Bax expressions in rat brain tissue and the apoptotic rate were significantly decreased in the croton cream+inhibitor groups(P<0.05),while the expression of and Bcl-2 was significantly increased(P<0.05).To conclude,croton cream may inhibit the activation of JNK/p38 MAPK signaling pathway and reduce neuronal apoptosis to achieve neuroprotective effects in rats with cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury.
