Background:
MicroRNA (miRNA) plays a crucial role in neuropathic pain (NP) by targeting mRNAs. This study aims to analyze the regulatory function and mechanism of miR-382-5p/dual specificity phosphatase-1 (DUSP1) axis in NP.
Methods:
We utilized rats with chronic constriction injury (CCI) of the sciatic nerve as the NP model. The levels of miR-382-5p and DUSP1 were reduced by intrathecal injection of lentiviral interference vectors targeting miR-382-5p and DUSP1. The mRNA levels of miR-382-5p and DUSP1 in the dorsal root ganglions (DRGs) were measured by RT-qPCR assay. The pain behavior was evaluated by mechanical nociceptive sensitivity and thermal nociceptive sensitivity. The expression levels of interleukin-6 (IL)-6, IL-1β, and tumor necrosis factor-α in the DRGs were analyzed by ELISA assay. The targeting relationship between miR-382-5p and DUSP1 was verified by DLR assay and RIP assay.
Results:
Compared to the Sham group, the CCI rats exhibited higher levels of miR-382-5p and lower levels of DUSP1. Overexpression of miR-382-5p significantly decreased DUSP1 levels. Reducing miR-382-5p levels can lower the mechanical nociceptive sensitivity and thermal nociceptive sensitivity of CCI rats and inhibit the over-activation of pro-inflammatory factors. Reduced miR-382-5p levels decreased NP in CCI rats. DUSP1 is the target of miR-382-5p, and down-regulation of DUSP1 reverses the inhibitory effect of reduced miR-382-5p levels on NP.
Conclusions
Down-regulation of miR-382-5p inhibits the over-activation of pro-inflammatory factors by targeting and regulating the expression of DUPS1, thereby alleviating NP.

OBJECTIVE: To establish the fingerprint of Mahai zhitan capsule, to determine the contents of main components, and to provide scientific basis for the stability and quality control of the preparation technology. METHODS: The determination was performed on Inertsil ODS-3 column with acetonitrile-0.1% phosphoric acid as mobile phase (gradient elution) at the flow rate of 1.0 mL/min. The detection wavelength was set at 250 nm (0-23 min and 31-120 min) and 230 nm (23-31 min). The column temperature was set at 30 ℃. HPLC fingerprint for 10 batches of Mahai zhitan capsule was established by using “similarity evaluation software for chromatographic fingerprint of traditional chinese medicine” (2012 edition) and the similarity was evaluated. The chromatographic peaks were assigned and identified with reference substance, negative samples without ingredient and substance control respectively, and the identified main components were quantitatively analyzed. RESULTS: The similarity of 10 batches of sample was more than 0.99; 20 common peaks were found, and 10 common peaks were identified. Among them, No. 1,13,14,15,16,17,18,19,20 chromatographic peaks originated from Rheum palmatum; No. 3,4,6,7 chromatographic peaks originated from processed Strychnos nuxvomica; No. 8 chromatographic peaks originated from Angelica sinensis; the corresponding source of medicinal materials was not found in No. 2,5,9,10,11,12 chromatographic peaks. By comparing the reference substances, No. 1,4,6,7,8,16,17,18,19 and 20 chromatographic peaks were identified as gallic acid, loganin acid, strychnine, brucine, ferulic acid, aloe-emodin, rhein, emodin, chrysophanol and emodin methyl ether, respectively. In the determination of identified five main components (loganin, strychnine, brucine, emodin and chrysophanol), the methodological investigation met the relevant standards. In 10 batches of samples, the contents of loganin, strychnine, brucine, emodin and chrysophanol were 2.477 1-2.785 9, 1.746 1-1.946 0, 1.374 6-1.505 8, 1.573 2-1.824 1 and 0.232 1-0.261 7 mg/g, respectively. CONCLUSIONS: The established method is reliable, accurate, stable and simple, which could provide reference for the preparation technology and quality control of Mahai zhitan capsule.
