ABSTRACT

@# Objective To explore the effect of the combination of Tuina and treadmill training on denervation skeletal muscle atrophy. Methods A total of 80 Sprague-Dawley rats (one month old) were randomly divided into control group (n=40) and manipulation group (n=40). Their sciatic nerves were transected, and the manipulative group accepted treadmill training and kneading of Tuina, while the control group accepted no intervention. Their muscle wet weight ratio, muscle satellite cells and insulin-like growth factor I (IGF-I) positive cells count were measured, and HE staining of gastrocnemius muscle were observed one, two, three and four months after intervention, ten rats in each group. Results Compared with the control group, the muscle wet weight ratio decreased three months after intervention (F=4.590, P<0.05), muscle satellite cells increased three months after intervention (F=12.466, P<0.01), and IGF-I positive cells increased two, three and four months after intervention (F>6.489, P<0.05). HE staining showed the skeletal muscle injury relieved somehow.Conclusion The combination of Tuina and treadmill training can relieve denervation skeletal muscle injury, but it is not enough for skeletal muscle atrophy, which may associate with promoting the expression of muscle satellite cells and IGF-I.

ABSTRACT

@# Objective To explore the effect of Tuina combined with treadmill training on nerve regeneration after sciatic nerve transection. Methods Ninty-six Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into normal group (n=32), model group (n=32) and treatment group (n=32). The sciatic nerve was transected and the epineurium was sutured in the latter two groups. The treatment group was given Tuina manipulation and treadmill training once a day. Eight rats from each group were detected their sciatic nerve conduction velocity (NCV), the number of axons and Schwann cells (SCs) two, three, four and eight weeks after intervention. Results Compared with the model group, the NCV accelerated in the treatment group four and eight weeks after intervention (P<0.05); while the number of axons was significantly different two and four weeks after intervention (P<0.05), and the number of SCs was not very different between the treatment group and the model group after intervention (P>0.05). Conclusion Tuina combined with treadmill training may promote the regeneration of peripheral nerve after injury in rats.
