ABSTRACT

Objective:By observing the effects of curcumin on synovial pathology, synovial osteoprotegerin and receptor activator of nuclear factor κB ligand expression factor of adjuvant arthritis rat models, we try to explore the possible mechanism of prevention and treatment of rheumatoid arthritis.Methods: There were three groups, the normal group, the model group and the curcumin group.We made adjuvant arthritis rat models with Freund′s complete adjuvant,and they were divided into the model group and the curcumin group.On d 28 after modeling,all rats were killed.All synovial membranes were sent for routine histological evaluation with HE staining.And synovial RANKL and OPG protein expression were measured by Western blot.Results: Curcumin could influence synovium pathology change of adjuvant arthritis rats,the pathological picture showed that infiltration of joint synovial cell,pro-liferation of synovial fibroblasts in model group rats were significantly increased,compared with normal group( P<0.01).Pathology of rats synovial tissue in rats of curcumin group were significantly improved, compared with that in rats of model group.Expression of RANKL,OPG protein in synovial tissue of curcumin group,based on pairwise comparison between with model group,the results were statistically significant( P<0.01 ).Synovial RANKL/OPG ratio were significantly lower than model group ( P<0.01 ).Conclusion:Curcumin can improve synovial pathology damage of adjuvant arthritis rats,curcumin may exert a protective effect on arthritis rats by regulating OPG/RANKL signaling pathway.

ABSTRACT

In 1999, the nomenclature and case definitions for neuropsychiatric lupus syndromes were published by American College of Rheumatology (ACR), and the cognition of neuropsychiatric damage of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) was gradually unified and standardized. Lupus headache is an intractable problem in SLE, especially in SLE patients complicated with multiple organ injury. In general, vascular headache is common in most SLE patients, and a small number of SLE patients complicated with nervous headache are found in clinic. Moreover, its pathophysiological mechanism is far from being understood. Although early diagnosis is essential for good outcomes, the diagnosis method is rather confused in the world. There still exist some limitations in the proposal of clinical classification of headache from ACR and International Headache Society (IHS), and the proposal does not mention the classification of headache related to psychiatric damage. Current therapeutic regimens are almost exclusively based on empirical evidence. Treatment approaches include symptomatic treatment, immunosuppressive, anticoagulant and anti-aggregant therapies. It provides enormous and hopeful space in research of combined therapy strategy, especially in the field of traditional Chinese medicine. The authors discussed the relationship between lupus headache and headache due to internal injury in the view of integrated traditional Chinese and Western medicine, and suggested that the treatment strategy for lupus headache should be made in argument with the headache due to internal injury. Syndrome differentiation treatment according to deficiency in the root and excess in the branch and the therapy for activating blood to dredge collaterals maybe have great advantages in treatment of the headache in SLE.
