目的:通过对地佐环平(MK-801)诱导的精神分裂症(Schizophrenia,SZ)发育和慢性给药模型大鼠脑组织去甲肾上腺素(norepinephrine,NE)和5-羟色胺(5-hydroxytryptamine,5-HT)及相关代谢产物浓度的比较研究,探讨围产期N-甲基-D-天冬氨酸(N-methyl-D-aspartate,NM-DA)受体阻断致SZ的神经生化机制。方法:24只新生雄性SD大鼠于出生后6d随机分为SZ发育模型组(MK-801F)、SZ慢性给药模型组(MK-801M)和正常对照组(Control);SZ发育模型大鼠于出生后7~10d皮下注射MK-801(0.1mg/kg,bid),SZ慢性给药模型大鼠于出生后47~60d腹腔注射MK-801(0.2mg/kg,qd),对照组大鼠于相应时段注射0.9%的生理盐水(Normal saline,NS)。出生后63d取各组大鼠大脑内侧前额叶皮质(medial prefrontal cortex,mPFC)和海马组织并匀浆,以高效液相色谱-库仑阵列电化学法检测组织匀浆中的NE、甲氧基羟基苯乙二醇(Methoxyhydroxyphenylglycol,MHPG)、5-HT和5-羟吲哚乙酸(5-hydroxyin-doleacetic acid,5-HIAA),并计算分析NE和5-HT的利用率。结果:SZ慢性给药模型大鼠mPFC区NE和5-HT浓度较对照组和SZ发育模型组显著升高(P〈0.01或0.05),两模型组大鼠mPFC区5-HIAA浓度较对照组显著升高(P〈0.01或0.05);与对照组和SZ慢性给药模型组比较,SZ发育模型大鼠海马MHPG浓度和MHPG/NE比值显著升高(P〈0.05),5-HT和5-HIAA浓度显著降低(P〈0.01或0.05)。结论:围产期MK-801重复处理诱导的SZ发育模型大鼠mPFC区和海马5-HT能递质系统功能减退,海马NE能递质系统功能减退。
AIM. To explore the related neu- robiochemistry pathomechanism by the compari- son of concentration of norepinephrine (NE), 5- hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) and their metabo- lites in brain tissue in the schizophrenia (SZ) de- velopmental model rats. METHODS: 24 neo- natal male Spragur-Dawley (SD) rats were ran- domly assigned at the postnatal day 6 to 3 groups: a SZ developmental model group (sub- cutaneous injection with MK-801 at the postna- tal day 7-10, 0.1 mg/kg bid), a chronic medica- tion model group (intraperitoneal injection at the postnatal day 47-60, 0. 2 mg/kg, qd) and a nor- mal control group (injection with 0.9% normal saline during the corresponding periods). NE, Methoxyhydr-oxyphenylglycol (MHPG), 5-HT and 5-hydroxyindo-leacetic acid (5-HIAA) of the tissue homogenate from the medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC) and hippocampus were examined with Coularray Electroehemic detection for high performance liquid chromatogram (HPLC) tech- nique. Meanwhile, the utilization rate of NE and 5-HT was calculated. RESULTS: The NE and 5- HT concentration in the mPFC were significantly increased in SZ chronic medication model group compared with in normal control and SZ developmental model group, respectively (P 0.01 or 0.05) ; the 5-HIAA concentration in the mPFC were significantly increased in both SZ chronic medication and SZ developmental model group compared with in normal control group, respectively (P 〈 0.01 or 0.05) ; compared to normal control and SZ chronic medication model group respectively, the MHPG concentration and NE utilization rate were significantly in- creased (P〈0.05), and the 5-HT and 5-HIAA concentration were significantly decrease in hip- pocampus in the SZ developmental model group, respectively (P 〈 0.01 or 0.05). CONCLU- SION: The activity of 5-HT systems in the mPFC and hippocampus and NE systems in the hippocampus were decreased in SZ developmen- tal model group.
