摘要
背景:姜黄素对脑缺血再灌注损伤(CIRI)有显著作用。然而,对其潜在机制的研究较少。目的:探讨姜黄素在CIRI中的作用及其机制。材料与方法:将CIRI模型Sprague-Dawley大鼠分为模型组、阳性对照组和姜黄素低、中、高剂量组(50、100、200 mg/kg/d),每组10只。药物干预方式为灌胃,每天1次,连续4周。计算神经行为学评分,观察脑梗死体积。血红素-伊红染色观察神经胶质细胞病理改变。TUNEL (TdT介导的dUTP缺口末端标记)检测细胞凋亡。实时荧光定量PCR检测细胞外信号调节蛋白激酶(ERK)、C/ ebp同源蛋白(CHOP)和caspase-11 mRNA的表达。Western blot检测磷酸化ERK (p-ERK)、磷酸化CHOP (p-CHOP)和caspase-11。黄嘌呤氧化法检测超氧化物歧化酶(SOD)活性;硫代巴比妥酸比色法测定丙二醛含量;分光光度法测定谷胱甘肽(GSH)。结果:与对照组比较,模型组大鼠神经行为评分、神经元凋亡、MDA、IL-1β、IL-18、mrna及ERK/p-ERK、CHOP/p-CHOP、caspase-11蛋白水平均显著升高(p p p p p)。我们的研究结果可能为CIRI的发病机制提供新的见解,并有助于CIRI治疗策略的发展。
Curcumin inhibits cerebral ischaemia-reperfusion injury and cell apoptosis in rats through the ERK-CHOP-caspase-11 pathway.
Context: Curcumin has a significant effect on cerebral ischaemia-reperfusion injury (CIRI). However, the underlying mechanism is less studied.
Objective: This study investigates the role and mechanism of curcumin in CIRI.
Materials and methods: CIRI model Sprague-Dawley rats were divided into model, positive control and curcumin low/middle/high dose (50, 100 and 200 mg/kg/d) groups (n = 10 each). Drug intervention was administered by gavage once a day for 4 weeks. We calculated the neurobehavioural score and observed the cerebral infarct volume. Glial cytopathological changes were observed after haematoxylin-eosin staining. Apoptosis was detected by TUNEL (TdT mediated dUTP nick end labelling). Extracellular signal-regulated protein kinase (ERK), C/EBP-homologous protein (CHOP) and caspase-11 mRNA were detected by real-time PCR. Phosphorylated ERK (p-ERK), phosphorylated CHOP (p-CHOP) and caspase-11 were detected by Western blot. Superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity was detected by xanthine oxidation method; malondialdehyde (MDA) content by thiobarbituric acid colorimetry; and, glutathione (GSH) by spectrophotometry.
Results: Compared with control, the neurobehavioural scores, neuronal apoptosis, MDA, IL-1β, IL-18, mRNAs and protein levels of ERK/p-ERK, CHOP/p-CHOP and caspase-11 in model group were significantly higher (p < 0.01). Compared with model, the positive control and medium/high dose curcumin groups were significantly lower (p < 0.01). However, SOD and GSH decreased significantly in model group but increased significantly in positive control and medium/high dose curcumin groups (p < 0.01). Moreover, curcumin significantly alleviated ischaemic state and neuroinflammation (p < 0.01).
Discussion and conclusions: Curcumin may alleviate CIRI through ERK-CHOP-caspase-11 pathway. Our results may provide new insights into the pathogenesis of CIRI, and contribute to the development of treatment strategies for CIRI.
