The experimental study of the effect of dexamethasone,lidocaine and contrast medium on the activity of collagenase / 介入放射学杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To study the effects of hormone,anesthetie and contrast medium on the activities of collagenase lysis.Methods Nuclear tissues were divided into equal amount for different groups and same units of collagenase were used for the lysis.The only difference in the control group from experimental groups was that there were no dexamethasone,lidocaine or omnipaque but existing in experimental groups.Twenty four hours later,the concentrations of the hydroxyproline were determined in different groups and the data were analyzed by statistical software with computer.Results 1.The concentrations of hydroxyproline in the dexamcthasone group,lidocaine group and omnipaque group were significantly lower than that of control group,especially that of lidocaine group,P value was＜0.05 or 0.01.2. The concentrations of hydroxyproline in the dexamethasone+lidocaine group,dexamethasone+omnipaque group,lidocaine+omnipaque group and dexamethasone+lidocaine+omnipaque group were significantly lower than that of control group;and simultaneously lower in dexamethasone group,lidocaine group,omnipaque group respectively;P value was also＜0.05 or 0.01.Conclusion Dexamethasone,lidocaine and omnipaque can individually inhibit the activity of collagenase at different degrees,so they shouldn't be used together with collagenase in treating the lumber disc herniation.
