摘要: 目的 观察电针对创伤性脊髓损伤(TSCI)大鼠腓肠肌中肌肉生长抑制素(MSTN)、肌肉特异性环指蛋白1 (MuRF1/Trim63)、肌肉萎缩盒F蛋白32 (Atrogin-1/Fbxo32)、成肌分化抗原(Myod)和肌细胞生成素(Myog) mRNA表达的影响,探讨电针延缓TSCI大鼠下肢萎缩的可能机制。 方法 将雌性Sprague-Dawley大鼠45只随机分为假手术组(n = 12)和造模组(n = 33)。采用 Allen法制备大鼠TSCI模型。将造模组存活大鼠(n = 24)随机分为模型组(n = 12)和电针组(n = 12)。术后1 d,电针组电针大椎、命门和双侧足三里穴,共28 d。术前,术后3 d、7 d、14 d、21 d、28 d比较各组BBB评分;术前和术后28 d,比较各组大鼠体质量;术后28 d,比较各组腓肠肌湿重比,HE染色比较腓肠肌纤维截面积和直径,实时定量聚合酶链反应(PCR)比较各组腓肠肌中MSTN、Trim63、Fbxo32、Myod和Myog mRNA的相对表达量。 结果 术后3 d、7 d、14 d、21 d和28 d,模型组BBB评分明显低于假手术组(P < 0.01),术后7 d、14 d、21 d和28 d,电针组BBB评分明显高于模型组(P < 0.01)。术后28 d,与假手术组比较,模型组体质量、左右侧肌湿重比、肌纤维横截面积和直径均减小(P < 0.01),MSTN、Trim63、Fbxo32、Myod和Myog mRNA的相对表达量升高(P < 0.05);与模型组比较,电针组左右侧肌湿重比、肌纤维横截面积和直径均增加(P < 0.05),MSTN、Trim63和Fbxo32 mRNA相对表达量降低(P < 0.05),Myod和Myog mRNA相对表达量升高(P < 0.05)。 结论 电针干预大鼠大椎、命门和双侧足三里穴可能通过下调MSTN、Trim63、Fbxo32 mRNA的表达,并上调Myod和Myog mRNA的表达,促进肌卫星细胞的成肌分化,延缓肌蛋白降解,从而减轻TSCI大鼠下肢腓肠肌萎缩。

Abstract: Objective To explore the effects and mechanism of electroacupuncture (EA) on expression of myostatin (MSTN), muscle-specific ring finger protein 1 (MuRF1/Trim63), F-box only protein 32 (Atrogin-1/ Fbxo32), myogenic differentiation antigen (Myod) and myogenin (Myog) in traumatic spinal cord injury (TSCI) rats. Methods A total of 45 adult female Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into sham operation group (n = 12) and operation group (n = 33). The TSCI model was established with the modified Allen's method. After modeling, there were 24 survival rats and they were randomly divided into model group (n = 12) and EA group (n = 12). EA group was electroacupunctured at Dazhui (DU 14), Mingmen (DU 4) and bilateral Zusanli (ST 36) for 10 minutes, once a day, six times a week for 28 days. Basso-Beattie-Bresnahan (BBB) score was tested before modeling, and three days, seven days, 14 days, 21 days and 28 days after modeling. The rats were measured their body mass before and 28 days after modeling. The ratio of gastrocnemius wet mass was calculated; the cross-sectional area (CSA) and fiber diameter were measured by HE staining; the expression of MSTN, Trim63, Fbxo32, Myod and Myog mRNA were tested with real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR). Results Three days, seven days, 14 days, 21 days, and 28 days after modeling, the score of BBB was lower in the model group than in the sham operation group (P < 0.01); seven days, 14 days, 21 days, and 28 days after modeling, the score of BBB was higher in EA group than in the model group (P < 0.01). Compared with the sham operation group, the mass of rats, the gastrocnemius wet mass, the CSA and the diameter of the muscle fiber were smaller in the model group (P < 0.05), while the expression of MSTN, Trim63, Fbxo32, Myod and Myog mRNA were higher (P < 0.05). Compared with the model group, the mass of rats, the gastrocnemius wet mass, the CSA, the expression of Myod and Myog mRNA were higher (P < 0.05) in EA group, while the expression of MSTN, Trim63 and Fbxo32 mRNA were lower (P < 0.05). Conclusion EA might delay the gastrocnemius atrophy in TSCI rats by down-regulating the expression of MSTN, Trim63, Fbxo32 mRNA and up-regulating the expression of Myod and Myog mRNA via controlling the differentiation of the muscle satellite cells and the degradation of protein in skeletal muscle cells.
