5. morphometric analysis
When research finished, selected every group of five animals were used for histologic analysis, came Puli rather to the influence of the pathological change of cisplatin induction thereby estimate 50mg/kg.With peritoneal injection 100mg/kgImalgene 500 with Animal Anesthesia.The sciatic nerve section that downcuts 5mm is used for Histological research.(France) solution spends the night fixation of tissue and in keeping until use in 30% sucrose under+4 ℃ for Sigma, L ' Isle d ' Abeau-Chesnes with 4% glutaraldehyde in the phosphate buffered solution (pH=7.4).(Sigma, L ' Isle d ' Abeau-Chesnes France) will fix 2 hours behind the neural sample in the solution to 1% Osmic acid. in phosphate buffer, dewaters in the gradient alcoholic solution, and is embedded among the Epon.Then the tissue with embedding place+70 ℃ following three days, allow to organize the wax polymerization.Cut the slices across of 1.5 μ m with microtome, (France) dyeing is 2 minutes for Sigma, L ' Isle d ' Abeau-Chesnes, dewaters and places Eukitt with 1% toluidine blue solution.
(Japan) inspection is from a section of each sciatic nerve sample for Nikon, Tokyo to use optical microscope.(Biocom France) analyzes on the whole surface of section to use semi-automatic digital image analysis software.For every fiber, aixs cylinder and myelin size are calculated and automatically with surface area (μ m 2) report.These two kinds of parameters are used to calculate the equivalent area (i.e. [A/ (A+M)] 0.5, A=aixs cylinder area, M=myelin area) of every fiber g-ratio (axon diameter/fibre diameter), and it shows relative myelin thickness.Myelin thickness and g-ratio are inversely proportional to.
Manually the fiber number of degenerating is counted by computer then.Following fiber is considered to experience the fiber of degenerative process: amacrine have myelin fiber, Feng Yu myelin (redundant myelin) and compare the fiber that demonstration has excessive sheath thickness with its axon diameter.
6. data analysis
In experimentation, compare body weight by dual pathways variance analysis (ANOVA).Analyze behavioral data, electric physiological data and histological data by ANOVA at each individual time point, and use Fisher Protected Least Significant Difference subsequently as check (PLSD) afterwards.Significance level is set in p<0.05.Expression of results is the standard deviation (s.e.m.) of mean value average.
The result
1. body weight
Opposite with the control rats that shows progressive weight increase under study for action all the time, all animals of accepting cisplatin just show (p≤0.001, the double channel A NOVA) (see figure 1) that loses weight significantly that day after using cisplatin.Cisplatin administration the 3rd the week and the 4th week observed the most serious losing weight.After cancelling plus cisplatin in treatment, rat shows progressive weight increase, but keeps the level (about 20%) that is lower than contrast.These results proof is used for Puli's thujic acid or come the peaceful potassium salt of Puli to handle the appearance that can not prevent growth retardation, is accompanied by improved growth pattern (being higher than independent cisplatin treated group about 10%) but compare with independent cisplatin treated group.
2. sensory test: hot plate
Fig. 2 showed since the 2nd week, compared with matched group, from rat display threshold fractional the significantly improving incubation period (p≤0.05, Fisher ' s PLSD check) of cisplatin individual processing group.Observe the most serious dysfunction in the 4th week (last week of cisplatin administration), its time mark is higher by about 30% than matched group.Even when research finishes, do not recover the performance level of control animal yet from the animal of cisplatin individual processing group.
In Fig. 2, also can find out, be used for Puli's thujic acid or be used for the peaceful potassium salt of Puli and handle the hot plate performance (p≤0.05, Fisher ' s PLSD check) of the rat of having improved cisplatin treated significantly.From the 3rd week up to the 7th week, observe significant effect.Observe handicapped the 4th week of the most serious cisplatin, be used for Puli's thujic acid or be used for cisplatin-rat that the peaceful potassium salt of Puli handles and show the time score that only exceeds control value about 15%.When research finishes (the 7th week), accept Puli's thujic acid or come the performance of rat of usefulness cisplatin treated of the peaceful potassium salt of Puli suitable with the performance of control rats.These results prove Puli rather can help to prevent the condition of illness relevant with plus cisplatin in treatment.
3. electrophysiologicalmeasurements measurements
The a.H-wave-amplitude
As shown in Figure 3, after the beginning cisplatin administration, just in cisplatin individual processing group, observe the remarkable reduction of H-wave-amplitude 1 week.The 4th week that was reduced in that the H-wave-amplitude is the most serious takes place, and this moment, loss exceeded 45% of control level.(back-cisplatin time point) begins recovery and finishes recovery in the 7th week (when research finishes) after the cisplatin treated cancelling.
Compare with cisplatin individual processing group, it is peaceful or be used for the cisplatin rat that the peaceful potassium salt of Puli handles and show that the H-wave table that improves is existing to be used for Puli.As far back as the 2nd all these differences is exactly tangible.When the 4th week (loss of H-wave amplitude is maximum in the cisplatin individual processing group at this moment), accept the peaceful cisplatin rat demonstration of Puli only to hang down about 20% H-wave amplitude than control value.Till the 5th week, be used for the peaceful cisplatin rat of handling of Puli to return to the H-wavelength-division number of control rats.These results also prove Puli rather can help to prevent or alleviate the physiology relevant with cisplatin administration and change.
B.H-ripple incubation period
Fig. 4 demonstration is compared with control rats, the preclinical significant prolongation of H-ripple since the 2nd all cisplatin individual processing groups (p≤0.05, Fisher ' s check).Observe the most serious change in the 4th week, its, mark prolonged about 12% incubation period.In the 7th week, the rat of cisplatin individual processing recovers on this tolerance fully.
Be used for Puli's thujic acid or be used for the peaceful potassium salt of Puli and handle the H-ripple that weakens cisplatin induction significantly and change (p≤0.05, Fisher ' s check) incubation period.When in cisplatin individual processing group, changing the 4th maximum week, in accepting the peaceful cisplatin group of handling of Puli, only observe mark about 4% prolongation (comparing) incubation period with control value.
C. sensory nerve conduction velocity
As far back as the gradual reduction that begins just in the cisplatin group, to observe SNCV the 1st week (p≤0.05, Fisher ' s check) (Fig. 5).Observe the most serious dysfunction in the 4th week, mark is lower than control value about 15%.Recovery is not returned to control level since the 5th all still performances.
