RESUMEN
Aim To investigate whether and how Huy- izhenbao tablets regulated osteoarthritis pain.Methods We transected the meniscotibial ligament of mice, which caused osteoarthritis by destabilizing the medial meniscus ( DMM).Different doses of Huyizhenbao tablets (12.5,25,50 mg • kg-1) were administered intragastrically.Dynamic and static mechanical allo- dynia were measured.The spinal cord slices were pre¬pared to record miniature excitatory postsynaptic cur-rents (niEPSCs) and miniature inhibitory postsynaptic currents (mlPSCs) by using patch clamp electrophysi¬ological recordings.The phosphorylation of NMDA re¬ceptor ( N-methyl-D-aspartate receptors) (rluNl sub- unit at S897 residue ( pS897-GluNl ) was observed by immunohistochemistry.Results Huyizhenbao tablets dose-dependently attenuated the dynamic and static mechanical allodynia induced by DMM, reduced the frequency of niEPSCs and inhibited the pS897-GluNI level.Huyizhenbao tablets had no effects on mlPSCs.Conclusions Huyizhenbao tablets effectively alleviate osteoarthritis pain by blocking the presynaptic release of excitatory transmitter glutamate and inhibiting the phosphorylation of NMDA receptor in spinal cord dorsal horn.
RESUMEN
Objective To explore the protective effect mechanism of minocyline on the model of the cerebral ischemia-reperfusion of gerbils by decreasing expression of phosphorylation P38MAPK.Methods A cerebral ischemia-reperfusion model in gerbils was established by clamping both common carotids.The ultrastructural alteration in pyramidal neuron in the hippocampal CA1 and the cortex of frontal lobe at different time was observed by electron microscope.And observe the expression level of phosphorylation P38MAPK by using immunohistochemistry technique.Results ①The damage to the neunos became more and more severe as gerbils survived longer postocclusion.Minocyline treated groups were lessened obviously.② Treatment with minocycline reduced expression of phosphorylation P38MAPK with a significant difference(P
