    摘要:

    背景:全球越来越多的人将酗酒作为一种缓解生理或心理压力的方式。姜黄(Zingiber officinale Roscoe)在民族医药领域显示出广泛的药理活性,但目前还没有数据报道生姜甲醇提取物(MEZO)在动物模型中对酒精使用障碍(AUD)和创伤后应激障碍(PTSD)所致氧化和炎症应激引起的肾功能破坏的作用。目的:研究MEZO对亚慢性酒精中毒致PTSD症状恶化小鼠的肾脏氧化和炎症生物标志物的保护作用。方法:雄性Swiss小鼠连续两周给予30%乙醇后进行单程长时应激,分别诱导AUD和PTSD,随后对其进行MEZO和维生素C治疗,评估氧化应激标志物、炎症细胞因子、肾功能、下丘脑-垂体-肾上腺(HPA)轴信号分子、血管扩张物质和肾脏组织病理学。结果:亚慢性酒精中毒加剧PTSD诱发的氧化炎症压力,改变了肾功能指标和HPA轴功能,并减少了一氧化氮的产生,而MEZO的植物疗法可改善这些状况。此外,还观察到模型组肾小管的严重退变和萎缩,以上所有效应通过MEZO干预得到极大缓解。结论:此研究表明,使用MEZO进行植物治疗可预防亚慢性酒精中毒和PTSD联合暴露所致损害。

    Abstract:

    Background Increasing number of people globally gives in to indiscriminate consumption of excess alcohol as a coping mechanism to relieve any form of physical or psychological stress. Previously, ethnomedicinal use of Zingiber officinale Roscoe (Ginger) have been shown to exhibit broad range of pharmacological benefits but no data has reported the phytotherapeutic treatment of Zingiber officinale methanol extract (MEZO) on alcohol-use disorder (AUD) and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD)-induced oxidative and inflammatory stress relevant to disruption of kidney functions in animal model. Objective To investigate the protective effect of MEZO on kidney-oxidative and inflammatory biomarkers in sub-chronic alcohol exacerbation of PTSD symptoms in mice. Methods Male Swiss mice were administered 30% ethanol for two weeks and thereafter introduced to single prolonged stress to induce AUD and PTSD respectively prior to post-treatment with MEZO and vitamin C. Markers of oxidative stress, inflammatory cytokines, kidney functions, HPA-axis signaling molecules, vasodilator substance, and histopathology of the kidney were evaluated. Results Sub-chronic alcohol intoxication heightened PTSD-induced oxido-inflammatory stress, altered the kidney function indices and HPA-axis, and reduced nitric oxide production, which were ameliorated by the phytotherapeutic treatment with MEZO. Furthermore, severe degeneration and atrophy of renal tubules were observed. Meanwhile, MEZO interventions strongly abated all these effects. Conclusions Herein, the study shows that phytotherapeutic treatment with MEZO prevents the damaging effects of co-exposure to sub-chronic alcohol intoxication and PTSD.
