Abstract:
ObjectiveTo investigate the effect of intrathecal injection of TRPV3-siRNA lentivirus on bone cancer pain(BCP) behaviors in rats.Methods40 female SD rats successfully received intrathecal catheter implantation and without motor dysfunction were randomly divided into 4 groups (n=10 in each group):Sham group (S),BCP group (B),negative control lentivirus group (C) and TRPV3-siRNA lentivirus group (T).Group B,C and T were induced bone cancer pain by intra-right-femur inoculation of Wallker 256 cells,while rats in group S were injected of inactivated cell.Rats in group T were intrathecally treated with 5 μl TRPV3-siRNA lentivirus while rats in group C received 5 μl negative lentivirus on 1~6 d after surgery.All the rats received pain behaviors including paw withdrawal thermal latency(PWTL) and paw withdrawal mechanical threshold (PWMT) at 1 d before BCP and 1,3,6,9,12,15,18 and 21 d after BCP.L4~L6 spinal cords were reserved for RT-PCR and Western Blot.ResultsCompared with group S,PWTL and PWMT of group B were decreased (P<0.05).On the 9th day,PWTL of group T was higher than that of group C((17.52±2.15)s vs (14.36±1.67)s,P<0.05).However,there was no significant difference in PWMT between group T and group C((16.89±1.54)g vs (15.53±1.36)g,P>0.05).The results of RT-PCR and Western blot demonstrated that the expression of TPPV3 in group T was decreased compared with that in group C(P<0.05).ConclusionIntrathecal injection of TRPV3-siRNA lentivirus can inhibit the expression of TRPV3 and thus alleviate symptom of PWTL,but not PWMT.
