RESUMEN

OBJECTIVE: To explore the molecular mechanism of electrical stimulation with scalp acupuncture (ESA) in alleviating neuroinflammatory injury in ischemic stroke rats based on interferon γ (IFN-γ)-mediated Janus kinase/signal transduction and transcriptional activator 1 (JAK/STAT1) signaling pathway. METHODS: Fifty-six SD rats aged 7 weeks were randomly divided into normal, model, ESA and inhibitor groups, with 14 rats in each group. The middle cerebral artery embolization rat model was established by means of thread embolization. Rats in the inhibitor group were intraperitoneally injected with the inhibitor PJ34 (5 mg/mL, 25 mg/kg) once a day for 7 days. Rats in the ESA group were treated at bilateral anterior parietotemporal slash (MS6) with ESA (2 Hz/100 Hz, 1 mA), 30 min a day for 7 days. Before and after interventions, the neurological deficit score and neurobehavioral score were evaluated. The percentage of cerebral infarction volume was detected by TTC staining. The positive expressions of interleukin (IL)-6 and IL-10 in cerebral cortex were detected by immunohistochemistry. The protein expression levels of IFN-γ, JAK1, JAK2 and phosphorylated (p)-STAT1 in rats cerebral cortex were detected by Western blot. RESULTS: Compared with the normal group, the neurological deficit score, neurobehavioral score, the percentage of cerebral infarction volume, the expression levels of IL-6, IFN-γ, JAK1, JAK2 and p-STAT1 in cerebral cortex were increased (P<0.01), while the expression level of IL-10 was decreased (P<0.01) in the model group. Compared with the model group, the neurological deficit score and neurobehavioral score after treatment were significantly decreased (P<0.01), the percentage of cerebral infarction volume was decreased (P<0.01), the expression levels of IL-6, IFN-γ, JAK1, JAK2 and p-STAT1 in cerebral cortex were decreased (P<0.01), while the expression level of IL-10 was increased (P<0.01) in the ESA and inhibitor groups. ESA was superior to inhibitors in improving neurological deficit score and down-regulating p-STAT1 expression (P<0.05, P<0.01), and was inferior to inhibitor in reducing the percentage of cerebral infarction volume as well as down-regulating IFN-γ and JAK1 (P<0.01, P<0.05). CONCLUSION: Down-regulating the expression of IFN-γ and inhibiting the activity of JAK/STAT1 signaling pathway may be one of the mechanisms by which ESA alleviates neuroinflammatory injury in ischemic stroke rats.

RESUMEN

OBJECTIVE: To observe the effect of scalp acupuncture on the expression of argarginine vasopressin receptor-1a(V1aR), phosphorylated calmodulin-dependent protein kinase Ⅱ(p-CaMKⅡ), and aquaporin 4(AQP4) at hypothalamus in middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) rats, so as to explore the molecular mechanisms of scalp acupuncture reducing encepha-ledema in acute ischemic stroke. METHODS: A total of 96 male SD rats were randomly divided into normal, model, inhibitor and scalp acupuncture groups, with 24 rats in each group. The MCAO model was established by thread occlusion method. The inhibitor group was intraperitoneally injected with V1aR inhibitor (30 µg/kg),once a day for 7 consecutive days. In the scalp acupuncture group, acupuncture was applied to bilateral "parietal and temporal anterior oblique line", with rapid insertion of 2 needles at 15° to 20°, twisting at 100 r/min for 1 min, and retaining the needles for 30 min, once a day for 7 consecutive days. The neurologic deficit score (NDS) and neurological score (NS) were evaluated before and after intervention. The positive expression of p-CaMKⅡ and AQP4 proteins in hypothalamus was detected by immunohistochemistry. The water content of left brain tissue was determined by BIIiot method. The expression of V1aR mRNA in hypothalamus was detected by real-time PCR. RESULTS: Compared with the normal group, the NDS, NS, hypothalamic V1aR mRNA expression, water content of the brain tissue, and hypothalamic p-CaMKⅡ and AQP4 positive expression levels were significantly increased (P<0.01) in the model group. Compared with the model group, the NDS, NS, hypothalamic V1aR mRNA expression, water content of the brain tissue, and hypothalamic p-CaMKⅡ and AQP4 positive expression levels were significantly decreased (P<0.01) in the inhibitor and scalp acupuncture groups. CONCLUSION: Regulating the signaling pathway of V1aR/CaMKⅡ/AQP4 in hypothalamus may be one of the molecular mechanisms of scalp acupuncture reducing encephaledema in acute ischemic stroke.

RESUMEN

OBJECTIVE: To observe the influence of scalp-acupuncture on the expression of pentraxin 3 (PTX3), Interleukin (IL)-1ß, zonula occludens-1(ZO-1) mRNA and Occludin mRNA in striatum in acute ischemic cerebrovascular disease (AICD) rats, so as to investigate its mechanisms underlying improvement of AICD. METHODS: Forty-eight male SD rats were randomly allocated to control, model, IL-1Ra and IL-1Ra+scalp-acupuncture groups (n=12 rats in each group). The AICD model was established by occlusion of the middle cerebral artery (MCAO). Rats of the IL-1Ra group and IL-1Ra+scalp-acupuncture group received intraperitoneal injection of IL-1Ra (0.05 mg·kg-1·d-1), once daily for 6 days. Scalp acupuncture stimulation was applied to bilateral "Dingnieqianxiexian" (MS6) once daily for 6 days for rats in IL-1Ra+scalp-acupuncture group. Before and after intervention, the neurologic deficit score (NDS) was evalua-ted according to Longa's method. The expression of striatum PTX3 and IL-1ß was detected by immunohistochemistry, and ZO-1 mRNA and Occludin mRNA in the striatum tissue were detected by fluorescence quantitative real-time PCR. The Evans Blue (EB) tracer method was used to monitor the degree of blood-brain barrier (BBB) damage. RESULTS: Following modeling, the NDS, EB content and the expression of PTX3 and IL-1ß in the striatum tissue were significantly increased, and the ZO-1 mRNA and Occludin mRNA expression was considerably decreased in the model group compared with the control group (P<0.05). After the interventions and compared with the model group, the NDS, EB content in both IL-1Ra and IL-1Ra+scalp acupuncture groups, and PTX3 in the IL-1Ra group were significantly down-regulated (P<0.05), while the striatum ZO-1 mRNA and Occludin mRNA expression in both IL-1Ra and IL-1Ra+scalp acupuncture groups, and PTX3 in the IL-1Ra+scalp acupuncture group were obviously up-regulated (P<0.05), and the expression of IL-1ß was obviously down-regulated in the IL-1Ra+scalp acupuncture group (P<0.05) rather than in the IL-1Ra group (P>0.05). The effects of scalp acupuncture combined with IL-1Ra were obviously superior to that of IL-1Ra in down-regulating NDS, EB content and IL-1ß expression level, and in up-regulating PTX3, ZO-1 mRNA and Occludin mRNA expression levels (P<0.05). CONCLUSION: Scalp acupuncture can improve neurological function and reduce the degree of BBB injury in AICD rats, which may be associated with its function in up-regulating the expression of PTX3 and in promoting the expression of ZO-1 mRNA and Occludin mRNA.

RESUMEN

OBJECTIVE: To observe the influence of scalp acupuncture on cerebral infarct size and expression of IL-10, IL-6, and IL-1ß in the para-hippocampal gyrus in acute ischemic cerebrovascular disease(AICD) rats, so as to investigate its mechanisms underlying improvement of AICD. METHODS: Forty-eight male SD rats were randomly allocated to normal control (control), AICD model, medication, and scalp acupuncture groups (n=12 per group). The AICD model was established by occlusion of the middle cerebral artery (MCAO). Rats of the medication group received intraperitoneal injection of Ammonium 1-Pyrrolidinedithiocarbamate (APDC, 100 mg•kg-1•d-1), once daily for 7 days. Scalp acupuncture stimulation was applied to bilateral "Dingnieqianxiexian" (MS6) once daily for 7 days. Before and after intervention, the neurologic deficit score (NDS) and the neurological score (NS) were evaluated according to Longa's and Schäbitz's methods, respectively. At the end of the intervention, the para-hippocampal gyrus and whole brain were collected respectively. The expression levels of IL-10, IL-6 and IL-1ß in the para-hippocampal gyrus tissue were detected by immunohistochemistry, and the cerebral infarct volume of the brain was detected by triphenyltetrazollium chloride (TTC) staining after sectioning. RESULTS: Following modeling, the NDS, NS and the expression of IL-10, IL-6 and IL-1ß in para-hippocampal gyrus were significantly increased in the model group compared with the control group (P<0.01). After the intervention, the NDS, NS and infarct volume, and the expression levels of IL-6 and IL-1ß in the para-hippocampal gyrus were significantly decreased in both medication and scalp acupuncture groups compared with the model group (P<0.05), and the expression of IL-10 was further obviously up-regulated in the scalp acupuncture group (P<0.05) rather than in the medication group (P>0.05). The effect of scalp acupuncture was obviously superior to that of medication in up-regulating IL-10 expression level (P<0.05). No significant differences were found between the medication and scalp acupuncture groups in the levels of NDS, NS, infarct volume, IL-6 and IL-1ß proteins (P>0.05). CONCLUSION: Scalp acupuncture can improve neurological function and reduce infarct volume in AICD rats, which may be associated with its function in up-regulating the expression of IL-10 and in inhibiting the expression of IL-6 and IL-1ß to reduce inflammation reaction.

RESUMEN

OBJECTIVE: To observe the effect of scalp-acupuncture intervention on the expression of Interleukin (IL)-10 mRNA, IL-6 mRNA and tumor necrosis factor (TNF) - α in the parahippocampal gyrus of cerebral ischemia (CI) rats, so as to explore its molecular mechanisms underlying improvement of CI. METHODS: A total of 64 male SD rats were randomized into normal control, model, medication and scalp-acupuncture groups (n=16 rats in each group). The focal CI model was established by middle cerebral artery occlusion. Intraperitoneal injection of Ammonium Pyrrolidine Dithiocarbamate (100 mg•kg-1•d-1) was administrated for rats in the medication group, once a day for 7 days. For rats of the scalp-acupuncture group, the acupuncture needles were rapidly inserted into bilateral Dingnieqianxiexian (MS6), followed by twirling the needles at 100 cycles/min for 1 min, once again every 10 min during 20 min' needle retention. The treatment was conducted once a day for 7 days. The neurologic deficit score (0-4 points, impaired consciousness, death, etc.) and neurological function score (motor, sensory and sensory tests, 0-10 points) were assessed according to Longa's (1989) and Schabitz's (2004) methods, respectively. The expression levels of IL-10 mRNA and IL-6 mRNA were detected by fluorescence quantitative PCR, and the expression of TNF-α was detected by immunohistochemistry. RESULTS: After modeling, the neurologic deficit and neurological function scores and the expression levels of IL-10 mRNA, IL-6 mRNA and TNF-α protein in the parahippocampus were significantly increased in the model group than in the normal control group (P<0.01). Following the intervention, the neurologic deficit and neurological function scores as well as IL-6 mRNA and TNF-α protein expression were significantly down-regulated in both scalp-acupuncture and medication groups (P<0.05), and the expression of IL-10 mRNA was obviously increased (P<0.05) relevant to the model group. CONCLUSION: Scalp-acupuncture can improve neurologic function in CI rats, which is related to its effects in up-regulating the expression of IL-10, then down-regulating the expression of IL-6 and TNF-α (reducing inflammatory response) in the parahippocampal gyrus.

RESUMEN

OBJECTIVE: To observe the effect of scalp-acupuncture intervention on the expression of parahippocampal factor-κB p 65 mRNA (NF-κB p 65 mRNA), IκB mRNA, interleukin-1 ß (IL-1 ß) and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) in rats with cerebral ischemia (CI), so as to investigate its molecular mechanisms underlying improving CI by reducing inflammatory response. METHODS: A total of 64 SD rats were randomized into normal control, model, medication and scalp-acupuncture groups, with 16 rats in each group. The focal CI model was established by middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO). Intraperitoneal injection of Pyrrolidine Dithiocarbamate (100 mg•kg-1•d-1) was administrated for rats in the medication group, once a day for 7 days. For rats of the scalp-acupuncture group, the acupuncture needles were rapidly inserted into bilateral Dingnieqianxiexian (MS 6) and Dingniehouxiexian (MS 7), followed by twirling the needles at 200 cycles/min for 1 min, once again every 10 min during 30 min's needle retention. The treatment was conducted once a day for 7 days. The neurologic deficit score (0-5 points, impaired consciousness, death, etc.) and neurological function score (motor, sensory and sensory tests, 0-10 points) were assessed according to Longa's (1989) and Schäbitz's (2004) methods, respectively. The expression levels of NF-κB p 65 mRNA and IκB mRNA in the parahippocampus gyrus tissue were detected by fluorescence quantitative reverse transcription-PCR, and IL-1 ß and TNF-α proteins in the parahippocampus gyrus tissue were detected by immunohistochemistry. RESULTS: After modeling, the neurologic deficit and neurological function scores and the expression levels of NF-κB p 65 mRNA, IL-1 ß and TNF-α in the parahip-pocampus were significantly increased in the model group than in the normal group (P<0.01), while the expression of IκB mRNA was considerably down-regulated (P<0.01). Following treatment intervention, the neurologic deficit and neurological function scores as well as NF-κB p 65 mRNA, and IL-1 ß and TNF-α protein expression were significantly decreased in both scalp-acupuncture and medication groups compared with the model group (P<0.05, P<0.01), and the decreased expression of IκB mRNA was obviously increased (P<0.05).. CONCLUSION: Scalp-acupuncture can improve neurologic function in cerebral ischemic rats, which is related with its effects in up-regulating the expression of IκB to inhibit the dissociation of NF-κB, then decreasing the expression of IL-1 ß and TNF-α (reducing inflammatory response) in the parahippocampal gyrus tissue.

RESUMEN

OBJECTIVE: To explore the specific mechanism of heat-reinforcing needling (HRN) for rheumatoid arthritis (RA) rabbits with cold syndrome based on metabolomics. METHODS: A total of 40 healthy rabbits were randomly divided into a normal group, a model group, a reinforcing-reducing needling(RRN) group, a twirling-reinforcing needling (TRN) group and a HRN group (n=8 rabbits/group). The RA model with cold syndrome was established with ovalbumin and freezing. Except the normal and model groups, RRN, TRN and HRN were given at "Zusanli" (ST 36) in the corresponding acupuncture groups for 30 min, once a day for 7 days. After the interventions, the pain threshold and the local skin temperature of each group were observed. The endogenous metabolites in the serum were analyzed by the gas chromatography mass spectrometry (GC-MS) technology combined with the pattern-recognition method. RESULTS: The pain threshold and the local skin temperature in the model group were lower than those in the normal group (P<0.05). The pain thresholds and the local skin temperatures in the three acupuncture groups were higher than those in the model group after interventions (P<0.05), and those in the HRN group were obviously higher than those in the RRN and TRN groups (P<0.05). The serum metabolites of leucine, valine, isoleucine, and arachidonic acid in the model group were increased compared with those in the normal group (P<0.05), and the metabolites of α-ketoglutaric acid, citric acid, succinic acid, glucose, inositol, palmitic acid, stearic acid, lactose, d-ribose, and D-mannose were decreased (P<0.05). The above-mentioned metabolites in the three acupuncture groups were significantly reversed relevant to the model group (P<0.05), and the effect of HRN group was significantly superior to those of the RRN and TRN groups in regulating α-ketoglutaric acid, citric acid, succinic acid, glucose, inositol, d-ribose, and D-mannose (P<0.05). CONCLUSIONS: HRN for RA with cold syndrome is effective, which may be related to the specific regulation for the krebs cycle and glycometabolism.

RESUMEN

OBJECTIVE: To observe the influence of scalp-acupuncture on the expression of acid-sensing ion channels (ASICs) 1 a and 2 b of hippocampal CA 1 region in cerebral ischemia (CI) rats, so as to investigate its mechanism underlying improvement of ischemic stroke. METHODS: Thirty-two male SD rats were randomly allocated to normal control, model, scalp-acupuncture and Amiloride group (n=8 in each group). The model of focal CI was established by middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO). Scalp acupuncture stimulation was applied to bilateral Dingnieqianxiexian (MS 6) and Dingniehouxiexian (MS 7), once daily for 7 days. Rats of the Amiloride group were fed with Amiloride solution, twice a day for 7 days, and those of the normal control and model groups were grabbled and fixed in the same way with the acupuncture and Amiloride groups. The neurological deficit score was given according to Longa's method. The expression of hippocampal ASIC 1 a and ASIC 2 b was detected by immunohistochemistry, and the Ca2+ concentration in the hippocampal tissue assayed using flowing cytometry. RESULTS: After the intervention, the neurological deficit score of both the scalp-acupuncture and Amiloride groups were significantly decreased in comparison with pre-treatment (P<0.01), and the effect of scalp-acupuncture was markedly superior to that of Amiloride in reducing neurological deficit score (P<0.05). The expression of ASIC 1 a and ASIC 2 b in the hippocampal CA 1 region and hip-pocampal Ca2+ concentration were significantly up-regulated in the model group compared with the normal control group (P<0.01), and obviously down-regulated in both scalp-acupuncture and Amiloride groups (P<0.01, P<0.05),without significant differences between the two treatment groups in the ASIC 1 a and ASIC 2 b expression and Ca2+ concentration (P>0.05). CONCLUSIONS: Scalp-acupuncture stimulation can improve neurological function in CI rats, which may be related to its effects in suppressing the increased expression of hippocampal ASIC 1 a and ASIC 2 b proteins and in reducing calcium overload in hip-pocampal neurocytes.
