理气补血汤调控TGF-β1-Smad通路延缓失神经骨骼肌萎缩的机制研究

理气补血汤调控TGF-β1-Smad通路延缓失神经骨骼肌萎缩的机制研究摘要

目的：研究理气补血汤对失神经骨骼肌萎缩的影响，并探讨其机制。

方法：建立大鼠C2C12细胞模型，以高糖诱导失神经骨骼肌萎缩。分为正常组、模型组、理气补血汤组。采用MTT法检测细胞增殖情况，采用Westernblot检测转化生长因子β1（TGF-β1）和Smad表达情况，采用免疫荧光染色检测细胞凋亡情况。并进行统计学分析。

结果：失神经骨骼肌萎缩模型组中，细胞增殖明显受到抑制，TGF-β1和Smad的表达量显著增加，细胞凋亡率显著升高。与模型组相比，理气补血汤组中细胞增殖得到显著恢复，TGF-β1和Smad的表达量明显下降，细胞凋亡率也明显降低。

结论：理气补血汤可以通过调控TGF-β1/Smad通路延缓失神经骨骼肌萎缩的进程，具有一定的药理学价值。

Abstract

Objective:Toinvestigatetheeffectsofliqibushensouponthedenervationatrophyofskeletalmusclesandexploreitsmechanism.

Methods:WeestablishedaC2C12cellmodelusinghighglucoseinductionofdenervationatrophy.Thestudyincludedanormalgroup,amodelgroup,andagrouptreatedwithliqibushensoup.WeusedtheMTTmethodtodetectcellproliferation,Westernblottodetecttheexpressionoftransforminggrowthfactorβ1(TGF-β1)andSmad,andimmunofluorescencestainingtodetectcellapoptosis.Statisticalanalysiswasperformed.

Results:Inthedenervationatrophymodelgroup,cellproliferationwassignificantlyinhibited,theexpressionlevelsofTGF-β1andSmadweresignificantlyincreased,andtheapoptosisratewassignificantlyincreased.Comparedwiththemodelgroup,theliqibushensoupgrouphadsignificantlyrestoredcellproliferation,significantlylowerexpressionlevelsofTGF-β1andSmad,andasignificantlylowerrateofcellapoptosis.

Conclusion:LiqibushensoupcandelaytheprocessofdenervationatrophyofskeletalmusclesbyregulatingtheTGF-β1/Smadpathway,andmayhavecertainpharmacologicalvalue.
