ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND/AIMS:
Gastro-oesophageal reflux disease (GORD) is a chronic high-morbidity disease with a bidirectional relationship with sleep disturbance (SD) that may occur via the transient receptor potential vanilloid type 1 receptor (TRPV1) in the oesophageal mucosa. Yet the related mechanism was still unclear, the aim of this study is to investigate whether TRPV1 is associated with the presence of SD in GORD patients.METHODS:
A case-control study was performed. After the screening, A total of 88 subjects were assigned to GORD without sleep disturbance (GORD + NOSD, n = 28), GORD comorbid sleep disturbance (GORD + SD, n = 30) and matched healthy controls (n = 30). Mucosal tissue was obtained from the participants by digestive endoscopy, the levels of TRPV1 expressed in the oesophageal mucosa were detected via RT-qPCR and western blot in different groups, and the correlation between GORD and SD were also analysed.RESULTS:
In this study, we found that the Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease Diagnostic Questionnaire (GerdQ) scores was positively correlated with Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) scores but negatively correlated with total sleep time (TST). We also found that the level of TRPV1 expressed in the oesophageal mucosa of GORD + SD was significantly higher than GORD + NOSD patients, and they were all higher than healthy controls.CONCLUSION:
The current study suggested a closer link exists between GORD and sleep disturbance, and TRPV1 in oesophageal mucosa may be a crucial factor affecting sleep in GORD patients.Palavras-chave
