Abstract:
ObjectiveTo study the effect of SSY-B2 on regeneration of central nervous system of rats with bilateral fornix/fimbria transaction.MethodsMale adult SD rats were divided randomly into 6 groups as sham group,model group, positive control agent piracetam group, SSY-B2 low dosage(1.5g crude drug/kg) group, medium dosage(3g crude drug/kg) group and high dosage(6g crude drug/kg) group.The bilateral fornix/fimbria transection in the rats were carried out. After operation, drugs were fed introgastrically to each group respectively for 6 weeks. The immunoreactive products of growth-associated protein-43(GAP-43 )and chondroitin sulfate proteoglycans(CSPG) in defined areas were measured using immunohistochemical methods. ResultsThere was no difference in number of cells expressing GAP-43 between the model group and sham group (P>0.05),but that in low dosage group increased compared with the model group (P<0.001). The CSPG in parietal lobes after lesion expressed,which was in sham group and model group(sham group and model group respectively, 56.43±59.6,116.36±10.561), and SSY-B2 in low and medium dosage inhibited its expression compared with the model group (P<0.05,P<0.01). Conclusions SSY-B2 can enhance the expression of GAP-43 and inhibit the expression or deposition of CSPG, promote axonal regeneration in the CNS, and thus structural repair and functional restoration in certain degree.
