Effects of resveratrol on spatial memory ability in chronic constriction injury of sciatic nerve mice / 中华行为医学与脑科学杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate spatial memory ability of intraperitoneal injection of resveratrol in a mice model of chronic constriction injury of sciatic nerve(CCI).Methods Forty-four C57BL/6 mice were divided randomly into 4 groupssham group (n=14),CCI group (n=14),resveratrol pre-treatment group (i.p.resveratrol 100 mg/kg 30 minutes before CCI model,n=8) and resveratrol post-treatment group (i.p.resveratrol 100 mg/kg 14 days after CCI model,n =8).CCI group,resveratrol pre-treatment group and resveratrol post-treatment group were operated with the model of neuropathic pain induced by chronic constriction injury of sciatic nerve.In shamoperated controls,an identical surgical procedure was performed,except that the sciatic nerve was not ligated.This was accomplished by using intellicage for mice by newbehavior to record their spatial memory after surgery.Results (l) Resveratrol pre-treatment group showed improved spatial memory ability compared with sham group and CCI group during day 17-21 (17 d(55.80±7.66) ％,(51.20±7.94) ％ ; 18 d(60.20±3.89) ％,(49.80±8.61) ％ ; 19 d(62.20±7.25) ％,(51.20±6.83) ％ ;20 d(63.00±9.69) ％,(48.40±8.84) ％ ;21 d(56.80±7.52) ％,(47.20±4.54) ％)(P＜0.05),compared with CCI group.(2)From day 26,the spatial memory damage was observed in mice with CCI (26 d(37.50±5.50)％,(51.80±9.01)％;27 d(37.25±4.19)％,(51.20±5.76)％;28 d(42.25± 3.50) ％,(52.80± 7.52) ％) (P＜ 0.05),compared with sham group.And this damage could be reversed by resveratrol,which was injected when the chronic pain was stable (26 d (46.60± 5.27) ％,27 d (54.00± 7.31) ％,28 d (52.60±4.39)％),compared with CCI group(P＜0.05).Conclusion Chronic constriction injury of sciatic nerve mice due to spatial memory impairment can be improved by resveratrol.
