Objective To analyze the clinical effect of puerarin and lipoic acid in treatment diabetic peripheral neuropathy.Methods 80 type Ⅱ diabetes patients accompanied with peripheral neuropathy were selected.According to different therapy,they were divided into single drug treatment control group (lipoic acid) and combined treatment group (puerarin + lipoie acid).Total effective rate,MNCV,SNCV,FBG,HbAlc and sorbitol were evaluated after treatment.Results The total effective rate in the treatment group was higher than that in the control group (P ＜ 0.05).Compared with the control group,the recovery rates of MNCV and SNCV were faster in the treatment group(P ＜0.05).And the levels of FBG,HbAlc and sorbitol were significantly lower in the treatment group than in the control group(P ＜ 0.05).Concluslon The clinical effect of puerarin and lipoic acid in treatment diabetic peripheral neuropathy was significant.

Inverse agonist is a new type of drug acting on receptors.Its research has experienced several stages, including discovery of ethylβ-carboline 3-carboxylate,activity study,proposal of the concept,two-state model,and constitutive activity theory in succession.Most G protein-coupled receptors possess constitutive activity,i.e.a proportion of receptors are in active state and can produce effects without any agonist.Inverse agonist has an affinity to receptors,but no intrinsic activity,so it cannot activate receptors.However,it can antagonize the constitutive activity of receptors,and produce an opposite effect on the corresponding agonist.Both agonist and inverse agonist can produce their effect alone with different mechanisms.Agonist activates its receptors,but inverse agonist antagonizes them.Both inverse agonist and antagonist can antagonize receptors.However,inverse agonist and antagonist antagonize the constitutive activity of receptor and the agonist’s effects,respectively.Inverse agonists can be used to treat diseases with enhanced constitutive activity,up-regulate and sensitize receptors with constitutive activity.Moreover,endogenous inverse agonists can maintain a specific physiological function.The study on inverse agonist has a theoretical significance in perfecting receptor theory as well as a clinical value in diagnosis and treatment of diseases with enhanced constitutive activity.

Objective To observe the effect of stress caused by neuropathic pain on serum cortisol concentration and expres-sion of 11β-hydroxysteroid dehyarogenase 1(11βHSD1)and investigate the action mechanism of curcumin for alleviating neuropathic pain. Methods The 72 male SD rats were randomly divided into 4 groups with 18 rats in each group:sham operation group(Sham), chronic constrictive injury group(CCI),solvent contrast group(SC)and curcumin treated group(Cur100). Curcumin(100 mg/kg/d) was given after the operation in Cur100 group. Paw thermal withdrawal(PTWL)and paw mechanical withdrawal threshold(PMWT)of rats were measured on 2 pre-operative and 1,3,5,7,10,and 14 post-operative days. The animals were deeply anesthetized,the blood was taken from the heart,and the L4-L5 dorsal root ganglion(DRG)of the operated side was removed. The change of cortisol was measured by ELISA and the change of 11βHSD1 expression in spinal cord and DRG was determined by immunochemistry and Western blot. Results Compared with sham group,PTWL and PMWT decreased significantly after operation in CCI group(P<0.01),serum cortisol concentration was significantly increased(P<0.01)and the expression of 11βHSD1 was significantly increased in CCI group(P<0.01). Compared with CCI group,the PMWT and PTWL was increased in CCI group(P<0.05),the serum cortisol concentration was decreased(P<0.05)and the expression of 11βHSD1 was inhibited in Cur100 group(P<0.05). Conclusion Stress caused by neuropathic pain triggered the release of cortisol to the blood and increased the expression of 11βHSD1 at the same time. Cur-cumin could alleviate thermal hyperalgesia and mechanical hyperalgesia induced by CCI and could also inhibit the serum cortisol con-centration and the expression of 11βHSD1 in spinal cord and DRG,which was likely to be related to pathogenesy and maintenance of neuropathic pain.
