Study on the Optimal Ratio of Shuji Decoction Against Dystonia in Rats with Parkinson's Disease
[Objective]To investigate the optimal ratio of Shuji Decoction for the treatment of dystonia in Parkinson's disease(PD)rats.[Methods]The model of PD dystonia was prepared by induction of 6-hydroxydopamine,and the experiment was designed by the orthogonal experimental design,and randomly divided into model group(equal volume of 0.9%sodium chloride solution),Shuji Decoction group 1～16[dosing ratio according to L16(215)orthogonal test table],and sham operation group(equal volume of 0.9%sodium chloride solution)as control,which was administered once/d for 28 d.The stepping test,suspension test and abnormal involuntary movement(AIM)were used to detect the degree of muscular rigidity.Ultrastructural changes of the neuromuscular junctions of the phrenic nerve were observed by transmission electron microscope.The expression level of tyrosine hydroxylase(TH)in brain tissue was measured by immunohistochemistry.[Results]The results of the orthogonal test showed that the best combination of Shuji Decoction was Shuji Decoction group 4,i.e.,Magnoliae Officinalis Cortex:Clematis chinensis Osbeck:Stephania tetrandra S.Moore:Cyclea barbata Miers:Lobelia sessilifolia Lamb in the ratio of 1:1:2:2:1.Compared with sham operation group,there was significantly decreased number of adjusting steps whereas increased latency and AIM scores of rats in model group(P<0.01);compared with model group,the number of adjusting steps was significantly increased,while latency and AIM scores of rats in Shuji Decoction groups were significantly reduced(P<0.01),among which the effect of No.4 Shuji Decoction group was the most obvious(P<0.01).The electron microscopic examination revealed that Shuji Decoction could reduce the number of presynaptic membrane vesicles,mitochondria and postsynaptic membrane folds,and relieve the structural damage of neurons.Immunohistochemistry showed that compared with model group,the expression level of TH was significantly increased in Shuji Decoction groups(P<0.05),and the expression level of TH in Shuji Decoction group 4 was highest(P<0.01).[Conclusion]The optimal ratio of Shuji Decoction for the treatment of dystonia in rats with PD is 1:1:2:2:1 for Magnoliae Officinalis Cortex:Clematis chinensis Osbeck:Stephania tetrandra S.Moore:Cyclea barbata Miers:Lobelia sessilifolia Lamb.
