Effect of the warming kidney for dredging governor channel acupuncture method on related neurotransmitters and the cAMP-RAF1 signal pathway on depression with kidney yang deficiency syndrome model rats
By estabtishing depression with kidney yang deficiency syndrome model rats
to explore the effect of warming kidney for dredging governor channel acupuncture method on warming kidney and regulating spirit
and reveal the mechanism underlying the warming kidney for dredging governor channel acupuncture method.
Methods
2
The rats were randomly divided into the normal group
model group
warm needle group
inhibitor group
and warm needle combined with inhibitor group
with six rats per group. Except for the normal group
the other groups were given a hydrocortisone hormone injection (intramuscular injection
25 mg/kg) combined with chronic unpredictable mild stimulation for modeling. Acupuncture and moxibustion were used in the warm needle group and warm needle combined with inhibitor group. The rats in the warm needle combined with inhibitor group and inhibitor group were orally treated with ESI-09 (cAMP-RAF1 signal pathway inhibitor) at a dose of 10 mg/kg 24 h before being sacrificed. Before and after modeling and intervention
the general conditions of rats were observed
and forced swimming and water maze tests were used to observe the behavioral changes in rats. The levels of brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF)
5-hydroxytryptophan (5-HT)
dopamine (DA)
and norepinephrine (NE) were determined by ELISA. Western blotting was used to detect the expression of cAMP
RAS-related protein 1 (RAP1)
and RAF1 proteins in the cAMP-RAF1 signal pathway.
Results
2
After intervention
compared with the normal group
the body weights of the model group
warm needle group
inhibitor group
and warm needle combined with inhibitor group were decreased (
P
<
0.01)
as were the anal temperatures of the model group and inhibitor group (
P
<
0.01). Compared with the model group
the body weight and anal temperature of the inhibitor group were decreased (
P
<
0.05
P
<
0.01)
while those of the warm needle group and warm needle combined with inhibitor group were increased (
P
<
0.05
P
<
0.01). After intervention
compared with the normal group
the forced swimming immobility time of the model group
the inhibitor group and the warm needle combined with inhibitor group was prolonged (
P
<
0.01)
and there was no significant difference in the forced swimming immobility time of the warm needle group. Compared with the model group
the forced swimming immobility time of the inhibitor group was prolonged (
P
<
0.01)
and the forced swimming immobility time of the warm needle group and warm needle combined with inhibitor group was shortened (
P
<
0.05
P
<
0.01). After intervention
compared with the normal group
the platform latency
shuttle times of the platform area
and the platform quadrant time ratio of the model group
warm needle group
inhibitor group and warm needle combined with inhibitor group were all decreased (
P
<
0.01). Compared with the model group
the platform latency
shuttle times of the platform area
and the platform quadrant time ratio of the inhibitor group were decreased (
P
<
0.01)
but were increased in the warm needle group and warm needle combined with inhibitor group (
P
<
0.01). The contents of BDNF
5-HT
DA
and NE
and the protein expressions of cAMP
RAP1
and RAF1 in the hippocampus of the model group were lower than those of the normal group (
P
<
0.01)
but those were higher in the warm needle group compared with the model group (
P
<
0.01).
Conclusion
