摘要:

Notch信号途径的激活能够维持神经干细胞的自我增殖状态,提高神经修复能力。目前对脑出血损伤信号传导通路变化的研究较少。我们采用针刺干预脑出血模型大鼠,实验分为4组:空白组不做任何干预;模型组采用自体血脑内注入法制作脑出血模型大鼠;针刺组在模型组基础上给予针刺大鼠百会穴(DU 20)曲鬓穴(GB 7)干预,每日1次,30 min/次;DAPT组在模型组干预基础上再将0.15 ?g/?L DAPT溶液10 ?L注入脑内。以免疫组织化学及免疫印迹检测结果发现,针刺能够有效的抑制大鼠基底节组织中Notch1及Hes1蛋白的表达,与Notch信号通路的抑制剂DAPT作用后效果相当。说明针刺可能通过抑制脑出血大鼠基底节Notch-Hes信号通路的传导,对脑出血起神经保护作用。

Abstract:

Notch pathway activation maintains neural stem cells in a proliferating state and increases nerve repair capacity. To date, studies have rarely focused on changes or damage to signal transduction pathways during cerebral hemorrhage. Here, we examined the effect of acupuncture in a rat model of cerebral hemorrhage. We examined four groups: in the control group, rats received no treatment. In the model group, cerebral hemorrhage models were established by infusing non-heparinized blood into the brain. In the acupuncture group, modeled rats had Baihui (DU20) and Qubin (GB7) acupoints treated once a day for 30 minutes. In the DAPT group, modeled rats had 0.15 µg/mL DAPT solution (10 mL) infused into the brain. Immunohistochemistry and western blot results showed that acupuncture effectively inhibits Notch1 and Hes1 protein expression in rat basal ganglia. These inhibitory effects were identical to DAPT, a Notch signaling pathway inhibitor. Our results suggest that acupuncture has a neuroprotective effect on cerebral hemorrhage by inhibiting Notch-Hes signaling pathway transduction in rat basal ganglia after cerebral hemorrhage
