Abstract:
Objective To explore the effect of corticotropin releasing factor (CRF) and its receptor on visceral sensitivity and colon motility of irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) rats. Methods sixty SD rats were divided randomly and equally into control group (without treatment),model group (sensitized in turn with camphor odor as conditional stimulation and physical restraint in combination with rectal distention pressure as non-conditional stimulation),treatment control group (injected physiological saline into lateral ventricles before treatment),treatment group 1 (injected CRF-R1antagonist into lateral ventricles before treatment),treatment group 2 (injected CRF-R2 agonist into lateral ventricles before treatment). Then the rats' visceral sensitivity were assessed by AWR,and colonic electricity activities such as volatility,maximum amplitude of fast wave and slow wave,interdigestive number of contraction wave and index of contraction were recorded. The data was analyzed with SPSS 16. 0 software. Results By the amount of ractal water injection to reach AWR=3 as the evaluation index,model group [(0. 90±0. 11) ml] showed higher visceral sensitivity than that of control group [(1. 23±0. 07) ml,F=82. 586,P<0. 01],and colonic electricity activity increased (P<0. 05),model was successfully set up. There was no significant difference of the amount of ractal water injection between model group [(0. 90±0. 11) ml] and treatment control group [(0. 81±0. 11) ml,F=3. 734,P>0. 05]. Compared with treatment control group,the visceral sensitivity decreased in treatment group 1 [(1. 28±0. 07) ml,F=161. 878,P<0. 01] and treatment group 2 [(1. 22±0.05) ml,F=121. 564,P<0. 01]. There was no significant difference between treatment control group and model group in electricity activities such as volatility,maximum amplitude of fast wave and slow wave,interdigestive number of contraction wave and index of contraction (all P>0. 05). While the electricity activities was weakened in treatment group 1 and 2 compared with the treatment control group (all P<0. 05). Conclusions CRF plays an important role in the pathogenesis of IBS. Inhibition of CRF-R1 or activation of CRF-R2 may lower visceral hypersensitivity and decrease colon motility of rats.
