Abstract:
ObjectiveTo analyze the changes of plasma concentration of calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) and substance P (SP) after electrical stimulation on dura mater adjacent to sinus sagittalis superior (SSS) in rats.Methods13 rats were randomly divided into control group(n=6) and stimulation group(n=7) in which the dura matter adjacent to SSS was stimulated electrically with square wave of 20 Hz, 4 mA and 250 μs. The plasma concentrations of CGRP and SP in both groups were compared by means of radioimmunity method.ResultsThere was significant difference in the plasma concentration of CGRP between control and stimulation groups (50.60±7.16 pg/ml vs 42.20±4.82 pg/ml, P=0.029). However, there was no significant difference in the plasma concentration of SP between two groups (308.59±43.07 pg/ml vs 264.60±60.28 pg/ml, P=0.165).ConclusionPlasma concentration of CGRP decreased after electrical stimulation on dura mater in rats but the concentrations of SP unchanged.
