摘要: 目的 探讨甲醛致急性疼痛大鼠中脑导水管周围灰质腹外侧区(vLPAG)γ-氨基丁酸A受体α1亚基(GABAAα1)的表达变化。方法 将大鼠随机分为对照组(C组,n=12)和甲醛致痛组(F组,n=12):于右侧后足底注射0.9%氯化钠溶液和2%甲醛各50 μL。记录大鼠建模后1 h内每5 min的缩足舔爪时间,分别统计两时相缩足舔爪时间之和,作为大鼠疼痛学评分;记录大鼠建模后1 h内每10 min各时间点的机械痛阈;1 h后处死大鼠,用蛋白免疫印迹法检测各组vLPAG处GABAAα1相对表达量。结果 F组大鼠出现了明显的缩足舔爪的急性疼痛表现,且呈两相性,疼痛学评分均高于C组(P<0.05);机械痛阈各时点均低于C组(P<0.05);F组GABAAα1蛋白表达含量较C组明显升高(P<0.05)。结论 中脑导水管周围灰质腹外侧区GABAAα1表达上调与大鼠急性疼痛痛阈降低有关。

Abstract: Objective To investigate the expression of γ-aminobutyric acid A receptor α1 subunit ( GABAAα1 ) in the ventrolateral periaqueductal gray ( vLPAG ) in rats with formalin-induced acute pain. Methods The rats were randomly divided into two groups: control group ( group C ) and formalin-induced pain group (group F),12 rats in each group: 0.9% sodium chloride solution or 2% formaldehyde 50 μL was injected into the ventral surface of right hind paw respectively. The pain scores were recorded for every 5 minutes and the mechanical pain threshold were recorded for every 10 minutes until 1 h. The expression levels of GABAAα1 in vLPAG were determined by Western blotting analysis in each group. Results The rats in formalin group showed significant nociceptive behaviors immediately, such as paw withdrawal and/or paw licking. Results demonstrated that the rats exhibited a biphasic response to pain. The pain behavior scores in group F were significantly higher than that in group C ( P <0.05 ), and the mechanical pain threshold in group F was decreased after injection compared with group C ( P <0.05 ). The expression of GABAAα1 protein in group F was significantly higher than that in group C ( P <0.05 ). Conclusion The up-regulation of GABAAα1 expression in ventrolateral periaqueductal gray is associated with the decrease of pain threshold in rats with acute pain.
