RESUMO

ETHNOPHARMACOLOGICAL RELEVANCE: Evodiamine (EVO) is a natural compound derived from Tetradium ruticarpum (A.Juss.) T.G.Hartley used to treat pain and migraine in traditional Chinese medicine. EVO is the primary active ingredient of Tetradium ruticarpum. However, the preventive effect of EVO against migraine remains unexplored. AIM OF THE STUDY: To investigate the preventive effect of EVO against nitroglycerin (NTG)-induced acute migraine in rats. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Male Sprague-Dawley rats were intragastrically administered EVO (45 or 90 mg/kg) for nine days. To establish an acute migraine model, we subcutaneously injected rats with a 10 mg/kg NTG solution. The migraine-like behavior of the rats was evaluated via the formalin test and the warm water tail-withdrawal assay. The periaqueductal gray (PAG) and serum samples were collected from the rats and used to determine the effect of EVO on the levels of serum nitric oxide (NO), CGRP, c-Fos, neuronal nitric oxide synthase (nNOS), inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) and the α-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazole-propionic acid (AMPA) receptor GluA1. RESULTS: The formalin test and the warm water tail-withdrawal assay showed that EVO inhibited the licking foot/shaking response and reversed the shortened tail-withdrawal latency in NTG-treated rats. Additionally, EVO suppressed serum NO levels and reduced the mRNA/protein expression of c-Fos and nNOS, but not iNOS, in the PAG. Furthermore, EVO suppressed total protein expression of the AMPA receptor GluA1 and its phosphorylation at Ser831 and Ser845. CONCLUSIONS: This study showed that EVO inhibits the migraine-like pain response and that this beneficial effect might be attributed to the regulation of nNOS and suppression of the AMPA receptor GluA1. We suggest that EVO has the potential to treat migraine as a lead compound of natural origin.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVE: To study the clinical value of the preeclampsia risk assessment system, and to explore the preventive effect of Qiju Dihuang Oral Liquid (QDOL) on preeclampsia patients. METHODS: Totally 2 000 pregnant women in the gestational week 16 -20 were equally assigned to Group A and Group B by randomized sampling. Their preeclampsia incidence was respectively assessed by preeclampsia risk assessment system and mean arterial pressure method. Of them, 200 pregnant women at predicted high risk of preeclampsia were assigned to the control group and the treatment group, 100 in each group. All received routine treatment. Patients in the treatment group additionally took QDOL, 10 mL each time, twice daily; 2 consecutive weeks per month for totally 2 weeks; lasting for six consecutive courses or ending according to the therapeutic course. The incidence was observed and compared between the two groups. RESULTS: The predicted coincidence rate of the risk assessment system was 72.3%, higher than that of mean arterial pressure method (50.5%, P < 0.05). The incidence rate of the treatment group was 32.0%, lower than that of the control group (46.0%, P < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS: The preeclampsia risk assessment system was more accurate. QDOL could lower the incidence of preeclampsia as intervention.
