Abstract:
Objective:To observe the effect of stellate ganglion block(SGB)on serum inflammatory factors and the expression of α7nAChR protein in rats with acute peritonitis,so as to further explore the mechanism of SGB on the inflammatory response of acute peritonitis in rats.Methods:40 SPF grade male rats were randomly divided into 4 groups:blank group(Control),acute peritonitis group(AP),acute peritonitis+stellate ganglion block group(AP+SGB),acute peritonitis+stellate ganglion block+α7nAChR inhibitor methyllycaconitine group(AP+SGB+MLA),with 10 rats in each group.Inject 2％acetic acid at a dose of 1 ml/100 g into the peritoneal cavity of rats to establish an acute peritonitis model in the AP group,AP+SGB group,and AP+SGB+MLA group.Blood samples were collected from the tail vein of the rats,and the concentrations of IL-18 and TNF-α in serum were detected by ELISA.Western Blot method was used to detect the level of α7nAChR protein in the peritoneal tissues,and RT-qPCR method was used to detect the expression of α7nAChR mRNA in the peritoneal tissues.Results:Compared with Control group,the levels of IL-18 and TNF-α were increased in the other three groups(P＜0.05).Compared with AP group,serum levels of IL-18 and TNF-α in AP+SGB group were decreased(P＜0.05).Compared with AP+SGB group,serum levels of IL-18 and TNF-α were increased in AP+SGB+MLA group(P＜0.05).The expression of α7nAChR mRNA protein were higher in the three groups than group Control,(P＜0.05).Compared with AP group,α7nAChR protein and α7nAChR mRNA expression levels were higher in AP+SGB group and AP+SGB+MLA group(P＜0.05).Compared with AP+SGB group,α7nAChR protein and α7nAChR mRNA expression levels in AP+SGB+MLA group were lower(P＜0.05).Conclusion:Stellate ganglion block treatment can reduce the production of inflammatory factors and inhibit the inflammatory response of acute peritonitis in rats,and its anti-inflammatory mechanism may be related to the cholinergic anti-inflammatory pathway(CAP)mediated by α7nAChR.
