Abstract:
Objective:To preliminarily explore the role and mechanism of diacylglycerol kinase(DGK)involved in the regulation of persistent inflammatory pain in rats.Methods:Complete Freund's adjuvant(CFA)was injected into the left soles of rats to establish the pain model,and the DGK inhibitor R59949 was given for intervention.The behav-ioral changes about pain were detected by the paw withdrawal thermal latency(PWTL)and paw withdrawal mechanical threshold(PWMT),the expressions of DGKα,DGKβ,DGKγ mRNA in the dorsal horn of spinal cord of rats were ana-lyzed by RT-qPCR,the expression changes of inflammatory factors TNF-α and IL-6 in the spinal cord of rats were examed by Western Blot,and the expression and cell localization of DGKα was observed by immunofluorescence stai-ning.Results:Compared with control group,the PWTL and PWMT of CFA-induced rats were decreased significantly(P<0.001),Notably,DGKα mRNA(P<0.001)and protein(P<0.05)expression levels were significantly elevat-ed in the spinal cord,as were the protein expressions of TNF-α and IL-6(all P<0.001).After the model rats were treated with DGK inhibitor R59949,PWTL and PWMT decreased significantly(both P<0.01).while the expressions of TNF-α and IL-6 in the spinal cord increased significantly(P<0.05,P<0.001).Immunofluorescence results showed that DGKα was expressed in spinal cord neurons of model rats.Conclusion:DGK inhibitor R59949 enhances the inflammatory pain and promotes the expression of TNF-α and IL-6 in the model rats,and DGKα is involved in the regulation of inflammatory pain.
