Oxidative stress has been implicated to play an important role in the pathogenesis of diabetic neuropathy, which is the most common complication of diabetes mellitus affecting more than 50% of diabetic patients. In the present study, we have investigated the effect of U83836E [(-)-2-((4-(2,6-Di-1-pyrrolidinyl-4-pyrimidinyl)-1-piperazinyl)methyl)-3,4-dihydro-2,3,7,8-tetramethyl-2H-1-benzopyran-6-ol, 2HCl], a potent free radical scavenger in streptozotocin (STZ)-induced diabetic neuropathy in rats. STZ-induced diabetic rats showed significant deficit in motor nerve conduction velocity (MNCV), nerve blood flow (NBF) and thermal hyperalgesia after 8 weeks of diabetes induction, indicating development of diabetic neuropathy. Antioxidant enzyme (superoxide dismutase and catalase) levels were reduced and malondialdehyde (MDA) levels were significantly increased in diabetic rats as compared to the age-matched control rats, this indicates the involvement of oxidative stress in diabetic neuropathy. The 2-week treatment with U83836E (3 and 9 mg/kg, i.p.) started 6 weeks after diabetes induction significantly ameliorated the alterations in MNCV, NBF, hyperalgesia, MDA levels and antioxidant enzymes in diabetic rats. Results of the present study suggest the potential of U83836E in treatment of diabetic neuropathy. 相似文献

Relief from painful diabetic neuropathy is an important clinical issue. We have previously shown that the transplantation of cultured endothelial progenitor cells or mesenchymal stem cells ameliorated diabetic neuropathy in rats. In this study, we investigated whether transplantation of freshly isolated bone marrow-derived mononuclear cells (BM-MNCs) alleviates neuropathic pain in the early stage of streptozotocin-induced diabetic rats. Two weeks after STZ injection, BM-MNCs or vehicle saline were injected into the unilateral hind limb muscles. Mechanical hyperalgesia and cold allodynia in SD rats were measured as the number of foot withdrawals to von Frey hair stimulation and acetone application, respectively. Two weeks after the BM-MNC transplantation, sciatic motor nerve conduction velocity (MNCV), sensory nerve conduction velocity (SNCV), sciatic nerve blood flow (SNBF), mRNA expressions and histology were assessed. The BM-MNC transplantation significantly ameliorated mechanical hyperalgesia and cold allodynia in the BM-MNC-injected side. Furthermore, the slowed MNCV/SNCV and decreased SNBF in diabetic rats were improved in the BM-MNC-injected side. BM-MNC transplantation improved the decreased mRNA expression of NT-3 and number of microvessels in the hind limb muscles. There was no distinct effect of BM-MNC transplantation on the intraepidermal nerve fiber density. These results suggest that autologous transplantation of BM-MNCs could be a novel strategy for the treatment of painful diabetic neuropathy. 相似文献

In this study, we used Raman spectroscopy as a new tool to investigate pathological conditions at the level of chemical bond alterations in biological tissues. Currently, there have been no reports on the spectroscopic alterations caused by diabetic neuropathy in the dorsal root ganglia (DRG). DRG are a target for the treatment of neuropathic pain, and the need for more effective therapies is increasing. Photobiomodulation therapy (PBMT) through infrared low‐level laser irradiation (904 nm) has shown analgesic effects on the treatment of neuropathy. Thus, the aim of this study was to use Raman spectroscopy to characterize the spectral DRG identities of streptozotocin (STZ)‐induced diabetic neuropathic (hyperalgesic) rats and to study the influence of PBMT over such spectra. Characteristic DRG peaks were identified at 2704, 2850, 2885, 2940, 3061 and 3160 cm?1, whose assignments are CH2/CH3 symmetric/asymmetric stretches, and C─H vibrations of lipids and proteins. DRG from hyperalgesic rats showed an increased normalized intensity of 2704, 2850, 2885 and 3160 cm?1. These same peaks had their normalized intensity reduced after PBMT treatment, accompanied by an anti‐hyperalgesic effect. Raman spectroscopy was able to diagnose spectral alterations in DRG of hyperalgesic rats and the PBMT reduced the intensity of hyperalgesia and the altered Raman spectra. 相似文献

Activation of p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (p38 MAPK) and c-Jun N-terminal protein kinase (JNK) in the dorsal root ganglia (DRG) is critical for the development of neuropathic pain. Tetraodontoxin-sensitive Nav1.3 channel, expressed at a very low level in the adult nervous system, is up-regulated in DRG neurons after peripheral nerve injury or peri-sciatic administration of rat recombinant tumour necrosis factor-alpha (rrTNF-α). To test if activation of p38 MAPK and JNK is required for the re-expression of Nav1.3 channel in cultured adult rat DRG neurons, we administrated rrTNF to cultured adult rat DRG neurons to induce Nav1.3 re-expression, and pre-treated with p38 MAPK inhibitor (SB203580 at 2.65, 26.5 and 265 μM) or JNK inhibitor (SP600125 at 1, 10 and 100 μM) 2 h before rrTNF to observe changes of Nav1.3-immunoreactivity. Compared with the DMSO vehicle pre-treatment group, SB203580 at 2.65 μM partially blocked the re-expression of Nav1.3 (P<0.001), and at 26.5 and 265 μM completely blocked Nav1.3 (P<0.001). Similarly, SP600125 at the concentration of 1 μM blocked the re-expression of Nav1.3 partially (P<0.001), and at 10 and 100 μM blocked Nav1.3 completely (P<0.001). These data show that the activation of both p38 MAPK and JNK in DRG neurons was involved in the re-expression of Nav1.3 channel triggered by TNF-α, which might contribute to neuropathic pain. 相似文献

Background
Painful neuropathy is a common complication of diabetes. Previous studies have identified significant increases in the amount of voltage gated sodium channel isoforms NaV1.7 and NaV1.3 protein in the dorsal root ganglia (DRG) of rats with streptozotocin (STZ)-induced diabetes. We found that gene transfer-mediated release of the inhibitory neurotransmitters enkephalin or gamma amino butyric acid (GABA) from DRG neurons in diabetic animals reduced pain-related behaviors coincident with a reduction in NaV1.7 protein levels in DRG in vivo. To further evaluate the role of NaV?? subunit levels in DRG in the pathogenesis of pain in diabetic neuropathy, we constructed a non-replicating herpes simplex virus (HSV)-based vector expressing a microRNA (miRNA) against NaV?? subunits.Results
Subcutaneous inoculation of the miRNA-expressing HSV vector into the feet of diabetic rats to transduce DRG resulted in a reduction in NaV?? subunit levels in DRG neurons, coincident with a reduction in cold allodynia, thermal hyperalgesia and mechanical hyperalgesia.Conclusions
These data support the role of increased NaV?? protein in DRG in the pathogenesis of pain in diabetic neuropathy, and provide a proof-of-principle demonstration for the development of a novel therapy that could be used to treat intractable pain in patients with diabetic neuropathy. 相似文献9.
DGCR5 attenuates neuropathic pain through sponging miR-330-3p and regulating PDCD4 in CCI rat models

Neuropathic pain caused by somatosensory nervous system dysfunction is a serious public health problem. Some long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) can participate in physiological processes involved in neuropathic pain. However, the effects of lncRNA DGCR5 in neuropathic pain have not been explored. Therefore, in our current study, we concentrated on the biological roles of DGCR5 in neuropathic pain. Here, it was observed that DGCR5 was significantly decreased in chronic sciatic nerve injury (CCI) rat models. DGCR5 overexpression was able to alleviate neuropathic pain development including mechanical and thermal hyperalgesia. In addition, the current understanding of miR-330-3p function in neuropathic pain remains largely incomplete. Here, we found that miR-330-3p was greatly increased in CCI rats and DGCR5 can modulate miR-330-3p expression negatively. Upregulation of DGCR5 repressed inflammation-correlated biomarkers including interleukin 6 (IL-6), tumor necrosis factor α, and IL-1β in CCI rats by sponging miR-330-3p. The negative correlation between DGCR5 and miR-330-3p was confirmed in our current study. Inhibition of miR-330-3p suppressed neuropathic pain progression by restraining neuroinflammation in vivo. In addition, PDCD4 was predicted as a downstream target of miR-330-3p. Furthermore, PDCD4 was significantly increased in CCI rats and DGCR5 regulated PDCD4 expression through sponging miR-330-3p in CCI rat models. Taken these together, it was implied that DGCR5/miR-330-3p/PDCD4 axis participated in neuropathic pain treatment. 相似文献

MicroRNAs have been implicated in nerve injury and neuropathic pain. In the previous study we had shown that miR-96 can attenuate neuropathic pain through inhibition of Nav1.3. In this study, we investigated the role of miR-183, a same cluster member of microRNA with miR-96, in neuropathic pain and its potential mechanisms. We found that the expression level of miR-183-5p in dorsal root ganglion was decreased with the development of neuropathic pain induced by chronic constriction sciatic nerve injury (CCI). By contrast, the TREK-1, a K+ channel, was increased. Further investigation identified that intrathecal injection of miR-183-5p mimic efficiently ameliorated neuropathic pain and inhibited the expression of TREK-1, a predicted target gene of miR-183-5p. Luciferase assays confirmed the binding of miR-183-5p and TREK-1. In addition, over-expression of TREK-1 blocked the roles of miR-183-5p in neuropathic pain. Our findings suggested that miR-183-5P participated in the regulation of CCI-induced neuropathic pain through inhibiting the expression of TREK-1. 相似文献

Peripheral diabetic neuropathy is a heterogeneous group of disorders, and is known to affect 50-60% of diabetic patients. Poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) activation has been identified as one of the key components in the pathogenesis of diabetic neuropathy. In the present study we have targeted PARP overactivation in diabetic neuropathy using a known PARP inhibitor, 4 amino 1, 8-napthalimide (4-ANI). Streptozotocin induced diabetic rats developed neuropathy within 6 weeks, which was evident from significant reduction in motor nerve conduction velocity (MNCV), nerve blood flow (NBF) along with neuropathic pain and abnormal sensory perception. Six weeks after diabetes induction Sprague Dawley rats were treated with 4-ANI (3 and 10 mg/kg, p.o.) for a period of two weeks (seventh and eighth weeks). Two week treatment with 4-ANI showed improvement in nerve conduction, nerve blood flow and reduction in tail flick responses and mechanical allodynia in diabetic animals. 4-ANI also attenuated PAR immunoreactivity and NAD depletion in nerves of diabetic animals. Results of present study suggest the potential of PARP inhibitors like 4-ANI in the treatment of diabetic neuropathy. 相似文献

Neuropathic pain is the most common chronic pain that is caused by nerve injury or disease that influences the nervous system. Increasing evidence suggested that microRNAs (miRNAs) play a crucial role in neuropathic pain and neuroinflammation development. However, the functional role of miR-217 in the development of neuropathic pain remains unknown. In this study, we used rats to establish a neuropathic pain model and showed that the miR-217 expression level was upregulated in the spinal dorsal horn of bilateral sciatic nerve chronic constriction injury (bCCI). However, the expression of miR-217 was not changed in the anterior cingulated cortex (ACC), hippocampus, and dorsal root ganglion (DRG) of bCCI rats. Ectopic expression of miR-217 attenuated neuropathic pain and suppressed neuroinflammation expression in vivo. We identified toll-like receptor 5 (TLR5) as a direct target gene of miR-217 in the PC12 cell. In addition, we demonstrated that the expression level of TLR5 was upregulated in bCCI rats. Moreover, restoration of TLR5 rescued the inhibitory roles induced by miR-217 overexpression on neuropathic pain and neuroinflammation development. These data suggested that miR-217 played a pivotal role in the development of neuropathic pain partly through regulating TLR5 expression. 相似文献

Many studies have verified that microRNAs contribute a lot to neuropathic pain progression. Furthermore, nerve-related inflammatory cytokines play vital roles in neuropathic pain progression. miR-183 has been identified to have a common relationship with multiple pathological diseases. However, the potential effects of miR-183 in the process of neuropathic pain remain undetermined. Therefore, we performed the current study with the purpose of finding the functions of miR-183 in neuropathic pain progression using a chronic sciatic nerve injury (CCI) rat model. We demonstrated that miR-183 expression levels were evidently reduced in CCI rats in contrast with the control group. Overexpression of miR-183 produced significant relief of mechanical hyperalgesia, as well as thermal hyperalgesia in CCI rats. Furthermore, neuropathic pain-correlated inflammatory cytokine expression levels containing interleukin-6 (IL-6) and interleukin-1β (IL-1β), cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) were obviously inhibited by upregulation of miR-183. Meanwhile, dual-luciferase reporter assays showed MAP3K4 was a direct downstream gene of miR-183. The expression levels of MAP3K4 were modulated by the increased miR-183 negatively, which lead to the downregulation of IL-6, IL-1β, and COX-2, and then reduced neuropathic pain progression, respectively. Overall, our study pointed out that miR-183 was a part of the negative regulator which could relieve neuropathic pain by targeting MAP3K4. Thus it may provide a new clinical treatment for neuropathic pain patients clinical therapy. 相似文献

The etiology of painful diabetic neuropathy is poorly understood, but may result from neuronal hyperexcitability secondary to alterations of Ca2+ signaling in sensory neurons. The naturally occurring amino acid taurine functions as an osmolyte, antioxidant, Ca2+ modulator, inhibitory neurotransmitter, and analgesic such that its depletion in diabetes may predispose one to neuronal hyperexcitability and pain. This study reports the effects of taurine replacement on hyperalgesia and sensory neuron Ca2+ homeostasis in streptozotocin-diabetic (STZ-D) rats. Nondiabetic and STZ-D rats were treated with a 2% taurine-supplemented diet for 6-12 wk. Thermal hyperalgesia and mechanical allodynia were determined by measuring hindpaw withdrawal latency to radiant heat and the withdrawal threshold to the von Frey anesthesiometer. Intracellular Ca2+ signaling was explored in neurons from L4-L6 dorsal root ganglia (DRG), using fura 2 fluorescence. Taurine replacement of diabetic rats attenuated deficits of nerve conduction and prevented reductions of mechanical and thermal withdrawal threshold and latency, respectively. In small DRG sensory neurons from diabetic rats, recovery of intracellular Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]i) in response to KCl was slowed and 73% corrected by taurine. The amplitudes of caffeine and ATP-induced [Ca2+]i transients were decreased by 47 and 27% (P < 0.05), respectively, in diabetic rat DRG sensory neurons and corrected by 74 and 93% (P < 0.05), respectively, by taurine replacement. These data indicate that taurine is important in the regulation of neuronal Ca2+ signaling and that taurine deficiency may predispose one to nerve hyperexcitability and pain, complicating diabetes. 相似文献

Emerging evidence has suggested that microRNAs play a critical role in neuropathic pain development. However, the biological role of miRNAs in regulating neuropathic pain remains barely known. In our present study, we found that miR-124-3p was significantly downregulated in rats after chronic sciatic nerve injury (CCI). In addition, it was showed that overexpression of miR-124-3p obviously repressed mechanical allodynia and heat hyperalgesia. Meanwhile, it has been reported that neuroinflammation can contribute a lot to neuropathic pain progression. Here, we found that inflammatory cytokine (IL-6, IL-1β, and TNF-⍺) protein expression in rats after CCI greatly increased and miR-124-3p mimics depressed inflammation cytokine levels. Consistently, miR-124-3p alleviated inflammation production in lipopolysaccharide-incubated spinal microglial cells. Bioinformatics analysis revealed that EZH2 acted as a direct target of miR-124-3p, which participated in the miR-124-3p-modulated effects on neuropathic pain development and neuroinflammation. We observed that miR-124-3p was able to promote neuroinflammation and neuropathic pain through targeting EZH2. The direct correlation between them was validated in our current study using dual-luciferase reporter assays. Subsequently, it was manifested that EZH2 abrogated the inhibitory role of miR-124-3p on neuropathic pain progression in CCI rats. Taken these together, our findings highlighted a novel contribution of miR-124-3p to neuropathic pain and indicated the possibilities for developing novel therapeutic options for neuropathic pain. 相似文献

Neuropathic pain is a kind of chronic pain because of dysfunctions of somatosensory nerve system. Recently, many studies have demonstrated that microRNAs (miRs) play crucial roles in neuropathic pain development. This study was designed to investigate the effects of miR-134-5p on the process of neuropathic pain progression in a rat model established by chronic sciatic nerve injury (CCI). First, we observed that miR-134-5p was significantly decreased in CCI rat models. Overexpression of miR-134-5p strongly alleviated neuropathic pain behaviors including mechanical and thermal hyperalgesia. Meanwhile, inflammatory cytokine expression, such as IL-6, IL-1β and TNF-α in CCI rats were greatly repressed by upregulation of miR-134-5p. Twist1 has been widely regarded as a poor prognosis biomarker in diverse diseases. Here, by using bioinformatic analysis, 3′-untranslated region (UTR) of Twist1 was predicted to be a downstream target of miR-134-5p in our study. Here, we found that overexpression of miR-134-5p was able to suppress Twist1 dramatically. Furthermore, it was exhibited that Twist1 was increased in CCI rats time-dependently and Twist1 was inhibited in vivo. Subsequently, downregulation of Twist1 in CCI rats could depress neuropathic pain progression via inhibiting neuroinflammation. In conclusion, our current study indicated that miR-134-5p may inhibit neuropathic pain development through targeting Twist1. Our findings suggested that miR-134-5p might provide a novel therapeutic target for neuropathic pain. 相似文献

Diabetic neuropathy is a common form of peripheral neuropathy, yet the mechanisms responsible for pain in this disease are poorly understood. Alterations in the expression and function of voltage-gated tetrodotoxin-resistant (TTX-R) sodium channels have been implicated in animal models of neuropathic pain, including models of diabetic neuropathy. We investigated the expression and function of TTX-sensitive (TTX-S) and TTX-R sodium channels in dorsal root ganglion (DRG) neurons and the responses to thermal hyperalgesia and mechanical allodynia in streptozotocin-treated rats between 4-8 weeks after onset of diabetes. Diabetic rats demonstrated a significant reduction in the threshold for escape from innocuous mechanical pressure (allodynia) and a reduction in the latency to withdrawal from a noxious thermal stimulus (hyperalgesia). Both TTX-S and TTX-R sodium currents increased significantly in small DRG neurons isolated from diabetic rats. The voltage-dependent activation and steady-state inactivation curves for these currents were shifted negatively. TTX-S currents induced by fast or slow voltage ramps increased markedly in neurons from diabetic rats. Immunoblots and immunofluorescence staining demonstrated significant increases in the expression of Na(v)1.3 (TTX-S) and Na(v) 1.7 (TTX-S) and decreases in the expression of Na(v) 1.6 (TTX-S) and Na(v)1.8 (TTX-R) in diabetic rats. The level of serine/threonine phosphorylation of Na(v) 1.6 and In Na(v)1.8 increased in response to diabetes. addition, increased tyrosine phosphorylation of Na(v)1.6 and Na(v)1.7 was observed in DRGs from diabetic rats. These results suggest that both TTX-S and TTX-R sodium channels play important roles and that differential phosphorylation of sodium channels involving both serine/threonine and tyrosine sites contributes to painful diabetic neuropathy. 相似文献

Peripheral neuropathy is one of the common complications of diabetes mellitus. It is frequently associated with debilitating pain. The present study was designed to investigate effect of Lycopene, a carotenoid found in tomatoes, on hyperalgesia and cold allodynia in streptozotocin (STZ) induced diabetic rats. After 4-weeks of STZ injection, diabetic mice exhibited a significant thermal hyperalgesia cold allodynia, hyperglycemia and loss of body weights as compared with control rats. Chronic treatment of lycopene for 4 weeks significantly attenuated the cold allodynia and thermal hyperalgesia. The results emphasize the role of antioxidant such as lycopene as an adjuvant therapy in the treatment of diabetic neuropathy. 相似文献

Oxidative stress has been implicated in pathophysiology of diabetic neuropathy. All the pathways responsible for development of diabetic neuropathy are linked to oxidative stress in one way or the other. In the present study, we have targeted oxidative stress in diabetic neuropathy using resveratrol, a potent antioxidant. Eight weeks streptozotocin-diabetic rats developed neuropathy which was evident from significant reduction in motor nerve conduction velocity (MNCV), nerve blood flow (NBF) and increased thermal hyperalgesia. The 2-week treatment with resveratrol (10 and 20 mg/kg, i.p.) started 6 weeks after diabetes induction significantly ameliorated the alterations in MNCV, NBF, and hyperalgesia. Resveratrol also attenuated enhanced levels of malondialdehyde (MDA), peroxynitrite and produced increase in catalase levels in diabetic rats. There was marked reduction in DNA fragmentation observed after resveratrol treatment in diabetic rats as evident from decrease in Terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase-mediated dUTP nick end labeling (TUNEL) positive cells in sciatic nerve sections. Results of the present study suggest the potential of resveratrol in treatment of diabetic neuropathy and its protective effect may be mediated through reduction in oxidative stress and DNA fragmentation. 相似文献
