The Protective Effect of Modified Sini Powder on Hippocampus Injury in Chronic Stressed Depression Rats
Objective To investigate the protective effect of Modified Sini Powder(Modified powder for treating cold limbs)on hippocampus injury in chronic stressed depression rats.Methods Multi-stressors were adopted to establish the rat model of chronic stressed depression.Totally 30 male Wistar rats were randomly divided into 3 groups:the control group
model group
and Modified Sini Powder group.Hippocampal neuron apoptosis rate
content of brain-derived neurotrophic factor(BDNF)and its receptor TrkB protein
and Ca2+ concentration in neurons of each group were observed.Results Stressed rats in the model group had significantly higher hippocampal neuron apoptosis rate than those in the control group
BDNF and its receptor TrkB were decreased in expression
and Ca2+ concentration in neurons was significantly higher(P<0.05 or P<0.01).In the Modified Sini Powder group
hippocampal neuron apoptosis rate was lowered
BDNF and TrkB protein expression increased
and Ca2+ concentration in neurons decreased
the difference was significant in comparison with those of the model group(P<0.05 or P<0.01).Conclusion Modified Sini Powder can improve depression by up-regulating the expression of BDNF in hippocampal neurons and decreasing intracellular Ca2+ concentration.
