Effect of Electroacupuncture Prestimulation with Mental Tri-Needles on the Inflammatory Response of Hippocampus in Aged Rats with Perioperative Neurocognitive Disorders by WANG Xiangfeng, HUANG Jinyan, LIU Wei, LUO Huiqin, WANG Guanhui, LIN Qin, CHEN Bin

“…Open field experiment and water maze test were used to evaluate the cognitive function; ELISA method was used to detect interleukin (IL)-1β, IL-6 and tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α in the plasma; HE staining was used to observe the cell morphology of hippocampal tissue; TUNEL staining was used to observe the apoptosis of hippocampal tissue; Western blot and real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR were used to detect the protein content and mRNA expression of IL-1β, IL-6 and TNF-α in hippocampal tissue.Results(1) Cognitive function: compared with the control group and the anesthesia group, the time of staying in the central quadrant, the number of crossings of the quadrant, the number of standing ups, the total distance of swimming, the swimming speed and the number of platform crossings in the operation group significantly decreased, and the latency and the time of staying in the target quadrant were significantly prolonged (<italic>P</italic>&lt;0.05); compared with the operation group, the time of staying in the central square, the number of crossings of the quadrant, the number of standing ups, the total distance of swimming, the swimming speed and the number of platform crossings in the acupuncture group significantly increased, and the latency and the time of staying in the target quadrant were significantly shortened (<italic>P</italic>&lt;0.05). (2) Levels of IL-1β, IL-6 and TNF-α in plasma: compared with the control group, the levels of IL-1β, IL-6 and TNF-α significantly increased in the anesthesia group, operation group and acupuncture group (<italic>P</italic>&lt;0.05); compared with the anesthesia group, the levels of IL-1β, IL-6 and TNF-α in the operation group significantly increased (<italic>P</italic>&lt;0.05); compared with the operation group, the levels of IL-1β, IL-6 and TNF-α in the acupuncture group significantly decreased (<italic>P</italic>&lt;0.05). (3) Morphology and apoptosis of hippocampal neurons: the most sever injury of hippocampal neurons occured in the operation group, showing as interstitial edema and a small amount of glial cell proliferation, while the injury of hippocampal neurons was slight and the morphology was relatively normal in the acupuncture group. …”
