To Explore the Effect of Xiangpi Shengji Ointment on the Apoptosis of Wound Cells in Model Rats after Anal Fistula Operation based on Fas/Fas L Pathway / 世界科学技术-中医药现代化

ABSTRACT

Objective To explore the effect of Xiangpi Shengji Ointment on wound healing and apoptosis-related Fas/Fas L pathway in model rats after anal fistula operation.Methods Thirty-six SD rats were used to construct the anal fistula model by using steel wire hanging line and indwelling for 30 days.After successful modeling,27 rats with anal fistula were randomly selected for"fistulectomy"to construct a postoperative wound model.After operation,the wound model rats were randomly divided into three groups,9 rats in each group,which were Xiangpi Shengji Ointment Group,Vaseline Group and Model Group,and the remaining 9 rats with anal fistula were sham operation group.The rats in the Xiangpi Shengji Ointment group were externally applied with Xiangpi Shengji Ointment gauze,while those in the Vaseline group were externally applied with Vaseline gauze.The rats in the model group were only disinfected and rinsed.No special treatment was given to the rats in the sham operation group.The wound healing was observed on the 3rd,5th,7th and 10th day after medication intervention,and the wound healing rate was calculated.After 10 days of continuous intervention,wound tissues were taken from each group,and the histopathological changes,the number of apoptosis,the expressions of Fas,Fas L,caspase-8 and cyto-c in wound tissues were observed by HE staining,TUNEL staining and immunohistochemistry respectively,and the mRNA expressions of Fas,Fas L and cyto-c in wound tissues were detected by RT-PCR.Results Compared with the model group,Xiangpi Shengji ointment group and Vaseline group significantly promoted wound healing at 7 and 10 days after intervention(P<0.01),and the wound healing rate of Xiangpi Shengji ointment group was significantly higher than that of Vaseline group(P<0.01).After 10 days of drug intervention,compared with sham operation group,the apoptosis rate of Xiangpi Shengji ointment group,Vaseline group and model group increased significantly(P<0.01),and the relative expressions of Fas,Fas L and cyto-c mRNA and the expression levels of Fas,Fas L,caspase-8 and cyto-c protein in wound tissue increased significantly(P<0.05,P<0.01).Compared with the model group,the apoptosis rate,the relative expression of Fas,Fas L and cyto-c mRNA and the expression level of Fas,Fas L,caspase-8 and cyto-c protein in Xiangpi Shengji ointment and Vaseline groups decreased significantly(P<0.05,P<0.01).Compared with Vaseline group,the apoptosis rate of Xiangpi Shengji ointment group decreased significantly(P<0.01),and the relative expression of Fas,Fas L and cyto-c mRNA and the expression level of Fas,Fas L,caspase-8 and cyto-c protein decreased significantly(P<0.05,P<0.01).Conclusion Xiangpi Shengji Ointment can inhibit the activation of Fas/Fas L pathway,reduce the apoptosis of wound tissue cells and promote wound healing after anal fistula operation.
