摘要
目的探讨人参皂苷对创伤后应激障碍(PTSD)大鼠海马神经元的保护作用及可能的作用机制。方法将Wistar大鼠分为3组,空白对照组、PTSD模型组及人参皂苷治疗组,使用Tunel染色观察神经元凋亡情况,测定大鼠海马神经元皮质醇(cortisol)、5-羟色胺(5-HT)、肿瘤坏死因子-ɑ(TNF-α)、白介素-6(IL-6)含量,并分别测定3组的旷场实验、高架十字迷宫实验、Morris水迷宫实验行为学改变情况。结果检测结果显示:空白对照组、PTSD模型组与人参皂苷治疗组5-HT为(1.87±0.47)、(0.36±0.15)、(0.98±0.33)ng/g,TNF-α为(1.27±0.13)、(10.22±0.32)、(5.39±0.27)pg/mL,IL-6为(2.25±0.27)、(14.76±1.12)、(8.96±0.34)pg/mL,皮质醇为(4.33±0.61)、(1.83±0.19)、(3.81±0.42)μg/L,神经元的凋亡率分别为(4.39±0.96)%、(68.35±5.97)%、(39.48±4.15)%,组间差异均有统计学意义(均P<0.05),人参皂苷治疗组行为学功能改善。结论人参皂苷对PTSD大鼠海马神经元具有保护作用,其作用机制可能主要通过调节下丘脑-垂体-肾上腺素皮质轴(HPA轴)及降低炎性反应而获得。
Objective To observe protective effect of Ginsenoside on neurons in rats with posttraumatic stress disorder(PTSD)and the related mechanism.Methods Wistar rats were randomly divided into three groups:the normal control group,PTSD model group,Ginsenoside treatment group.Tunel staining was used to observe the apoptosis of rat hippocampal neurons.Cortisol,5-hydroxytryptamine(5-HT),tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α),interleukin-6(IL-6)were detected.Moreover behavioral evaluation was performed in open field test,elevated plus maze and Morris water maze.Results In the normal control group,PTSD model group and Ginsenoside treatment group,the concentration of 5-HT was[(1.87±0.47),(0.36±0.15),(0.98±0.33)ng/g];the concentration of TNF-α[(1.27±0.13),(10.22±0.32),(5.39±0.27)pg/mL];the concentration of IL-6[(2.25±0.27),(14.76±1.12),(8.96±0.34)pg/mL],and the concentration of cortisol[(4.33±0.61),(1.83±0.19),(3.81±0.42)μg/L].Apoptosis rates of the three groups were(4.39±0.96)%,(68.35±5.97)%,and(39.48±4.15)%(all P<0.05).Behavioral function was improved.Conclusion Ginsenoside may play a neuroprotective role in hippocampus of PTSD rats by regulation of the HPA axis and reduction of inflammatory response.
