Abstract:Objective: To observe the effect of Xingshen Yinao and Buqi Tongluo acupuncture on cerebral palsy rats brain nerve cell apoptosis and nerve growth factor protein expression, limb function, and to analyze whether this effect is related to acupuncture time. METHODS: The experiment was completed in the clean laboratory of Experimental Animal Center and the laboratory of Acupuncture and Massage College of Guangzhou University of Chinese Medicine from August to October 2005. ① 109 7-day-old newborn SD pups were selected. After ligating the left common carotid artery, the rats were recovered for 2 hours, placed in a transparent airtight container, incorporated into 37 ℃ constant temperature water and introduced hypoxic gas (volume fraction 0.08 oxygen and 0.92 nitrogen) at a speed of 1L/min. After 2.5 hours, the animals were taken out, and the survivors were kept warm for 1 hour for behavior measurement. Those who could not turn over, had abnormal balance or left-handed were regarded as successful models (72 rats). The remaining 24 rats were set as sham operation group: only the left common carotid artery was isolated without ligation and hypoxia treatment. Seventy-two rats with successful modeling were randomly divided into three groups: cerebral palsy rats acupuncture group I, cerebral palsy rats acupuncture group II, and model group, with 24 rats in each group. The rats were selected as Baiwill, affected side rate Gu Toujiao Sun, Neiguan, Quchi, Zusanli and Yongquan. Acupuncture group I of young rats with cerebral palsy started acupuncture 24 hours after modeling, acupuncture points on the limbs were injected 7 days ago, and acupuncture points on the head were added on the second day. Acupuncture was started on the 8th day after the model was made in the acupuncture group II of young rats with cerebral palsy, and the head and body needles were synchronized. Both groups were treated with acupuncture needles in Neiguan and Yongquan, without leaving needles, and then needle heads and Quchi and Zusanli. Baiwei, Ligu Toujiao Sun and Quchi and Zusanli are connected with G6805-Ⅱ electroacupuncture instrument, continuous wave, frequency 5~10Hz, duration 10min, once/d. Cerebral palsy rats acupuncture group Ⅰ continuous acupuncture 20d, cerebral palsy rats acupuncture group Ⅱ continuous acupuncture 13d. The method of acupuncture in the sham operation group was the same as that in the acupuncture group of cerebral palsy rats, and the model group was only modeled without any treatment. ③ On the 7th, 14th and 21st day after operation, the adhesive tape was stuck on the ventral side of the two forepaws of rats, and the time taken to tear off the adhesive tape was recorded. ④ On the 21st day after operation, 10 rats were randomly selected from each group for the following tests: the apoptosis of neurons in the frontal cortex and hippocampus and the expression of nerve growth factor in the hippocampus were determined by in situ end labeling and immunohistochemistry, respectively, and the number of apoptotic neurons and the expression of nerve growth factor immunoreactive cells were counted by image analyzer under light microscope (× 400). ⑤ The rate was compared by x2 test, and the multi-mean comparison between groups was analyzed by variance (F-q check).
