摘要:

目的 构建糖尿病神经病理性疼痛大鼠模型,利用功能磁共振成像技术,观察脑功能活动变化情况,探索异常功能活动的脑区。   方法 雄性SD大鼠48只,随机分为糖尿病组(n=36)和对照组(n=12)。糖尿病组通过腹腔注射60 mg/kg链脲佐菌素构建糖尿病模型,同时测定50%机械刺激缩足反射阈值的变化情况,根据触觉诱发性疼痛标准,糖尿病组大鼠被分成疼痛组及无痛组。利用锰离子增强功能磁共振成像技术进行大鼠脑功能成像,图像后处理分析糖尿病神经病理性疼痛大鼠脑内异常功能活动区域。   结果 成功构建糖尿病神经病理性疼痛大鼠模型,发现脑内存在显著性功能活动增强的区域,包括感觉皮层、腹内侧前额叶皮层、前扣带皮层、下橄榄核、梨状皮层、杏仁核及岛叶部分皮层。   结论 糖尿病神经病理性疼痛大鼠脑内部分脑区具有异常功能活动的表现,这些脑区很有可能参与该疼痛调控的中枢机制。

Abstract:

Objective To construct the diabetic neuropathic pain rat model. To detect the functional activity changes of brain and explore the brain regions with abnormal function activities using functional magnetic resonance imaging.    Methods    Forty-eight male SD rats were chosen and randomly divided into two groups: a diabetes group (n=36) and a control group (n=12). Diabetes was induced by intraperitoneal injection of streptozotocin (60 mg/kg) with observation of the changes of fasting blood glucose level and body weight. Behavioral testing for paw 50% withdrawal threshold was performed at the same time. Tactile allodynia was defined as a 50% withdrawal threshold of less than or equal to 2.0 g. According to the tactile allodynia, the diabetes group was sorted into two groups: the pain group and painless group. Functional activity mapping of brain by manganese enhanced magnetic resonance imaging and voxel-wise t-test were then applied to statistically analyze the brain regions with abnormal function activities in diabetic neuropathic pain rat.    Results    Diabetic neuropathic pain rat was successfully induced. some brain regions, including the somatosensory cortex, ventromedial prefrontal cortex, anterior cingulate cortex, inferior olive, piriform cortex,and part of the cortexes of the amygdala and insula, were found with significantly enhanced activity in diabetic neuropathic pain rat.    Conclusions    The results suggest these brain regions with abnormal function activities probably take part in the regulation of diabetic neuropathic pain within central nervous system.
