文题释义:
神经型钙黏素:与上皮型钙黏素同属于经典型钙黏素,神经型钙黏素的表达升高,上皮型钙黏素的表达降低参与了许多上皮来源肿瘤的恶化、转移与侵袭,还发现神经型钙黏素有抗肿瘤凋亡的作用;其可发挥细胞间的黏附作用和作为细胞应答的信号受体发挥信号转导作用参与神经元细胞和胶质细胞间的黏附、迁移和增殖等,也被证实参与协调面部神经元的集体迁移,并在轴突导向、识别、中枢神经系统和周围神经系统的髓鞘化中发挥着重要作用。
电针疗法:毫针刺入不同穴位后,予以不同的频率、波形的电流刺激可发挥不同的防治作用;临床上常用于各种痛症、痹证和心、胃、肠、膀胱等器官的功能失调,肌肉、韧带、关节的损伤性疾病,麻醉、气血运动障碍、坐骨神经痛、瘫痪等,面瘫是针灸在临床应用中最常见和最有效的优势病种,属于针灸的Ⅰ级病谱,电针疗法作为针灸的发展,常以疏密波电流刺激作为重要的治疗方式应用于临床面瘫。
摘要
背景:
作者所在课题组前期研究发现周围性面神经损伤能引起神经元中黏附分子的表达变化,而电针穴位治疗周围性面神经损伤的机制尚不清楚。
目的:探讨电针穴位在面神经外周部受损后对中枢面神经元的形态学变化及面神经元中神经型钙黏素、上皮型钙黏素及胎盘型钙黏素表达的影响。
方法:将新西兰大白兔随机分为正常对照组(n=4)、面神经损伤组(n=24)和电针组(n=24)。面神经损伤组与电针组均建立右侧面神经上颊支压榨损伤模型。造模成功后每天对电针组实验兔颊车、地仓、翳风、颧缪、四白、阳白电刺激,选择频率为18-20 Hz、电压为1.5 V的疏密波,另外埋针合谷穴不予以电刺激,针灸每次30 min,1次/d。
结果与结论:①原位杂交结果显示各组兔面神经元中均未见上皮型钙黏素和胎盘型钙黏素mRNA表达,且正常对照组兔面神经元中未见神经型钙黏素mRNA表达,而面神经损伤组和电针组兔面神经元中出现神经型钙黏素mRNA的阳性表达,电针组兔面神经元中神经型钙黏素mRNA阳性细胞数均多于面神经损伤组(P < 0.05);②免疫组化染色可见正常对照组兔面神经元中神经型钙黏素、上皮型钙黏素和胎盘型钙黏素蛋白表达;损伤后1 d时三者表达下降(电针组神经型钙黏素蛋白除外);损伤后1,4,14 d时电针组兔面神经元中神经型钙黏素和胎盘型钙黏素蛋白表达高于面神经损伤组(P < 0.05);损伤后各时间点,电针组上皮型钙黏素蛋白表达均高于面神经损伤组(1 d时除外)(P < 0.05 );③苏木精-伊红染色可见面神经损伤组逐渐出现面神经元变性及类似神经元死亡表现,21 d时神经元开始恢复。电针组变性及类似死亡表现的神经元较面神经损伤组少,且14 d时神经元开始恢复,28 d时2组神经元形态均基本恢复;④提示面神经损伤引起了钙黏素的表达变化,电针治疗减轻了面神经元的变性并促进神经元恢复,这可能与电针促进面神经元中经典钙黏素的高表达密切相关。

Abstract:

BACKGROUND: Preliminary studies have found that peripheral facial nerve injury can cause changes in the expression of adhesion molecules in neurons, but the mechanism of electroacupuncture in the treatment of facial nerve injury is unclear.
OBJECTIVE: To observe the effect of electroacupuncture on the morphological changes of the facial neurons and the expression of N-cadherin, E-cadherin and P-cadherin in the neurons after peripheral facial nerve injury.
METHODS: New Zealand white rabbits were randomized into control group (n=4), model group (n=24) and electroacupuncture group (n=24). Rabbits in the latter two groups were used to establish the crush injury model of superior buccal branch of the right facial nerve, and the electroacupuncture group rabbits were given the electroacupuncture at Jiache (ST6), Dicang (ST4), Yifeng (SJ17), Quanliao (SI18), Sibai  (ST2) and Yangbai (GB14) with dilatational wave (18-20 Hz, 1.5 V), and needle-embedding at Hegu (LI4) without electroacupuncture, 30 minutes, once daily.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: In situ hybridization results suggested that E-cadherin mRNA and P-cadherin mRNA were negative in all groups, and N-cadherin mRNA was not expressed in the control group. The expression of N-cadherin mRNA was positive in the electroacupuncture and model groups after facial nerve injury. The number of N-cadherin mRNA positive cells in the electroacupuncture group was significantly higher than that in the model group (P < 0.05). Immunohistochemical staining results found that the expressions of N-cadherin, E-cadherin and P-cadherin were positive in the control group; the expression levels of the three cadherins decreased at 1 day after injury (except N-cadherin in the electroacupuncture group); the expression levels of N-cadherin and P-cadherin in the electroacupuncture group were higher than those in the model group at 1, 4 and 14 days after injury (P < 0.05); the expression levels of E-cadherin in the electroacupuncture group was significantly higher than that in the model group (except the first day) (P < 0.05). Hematoxylin-eosin staining showed that in the model group, there was facial nerve neuron degeneration followed by similar neuronal death, and the neuron morphology began to recover at 21 days after injury. Neuron morphological changes in the electroacupuncture group were less than those in the model group, and neurons began to recover at 14 days after injury. The neurons in the two groups were restored at 28 days after injury. Our findings reveal that facial nerve injury can induce the expression of adhesion molecules, and electroacupuncture can reduce the degeneration of facial neurons and promote the recovery of neurons, which may be achieved by increasing the expression of adhesion molecules in the facial neurons.
