Effect of Moxibustion Therapy on the Expression of Glial Glutamate Transporter-1 in Cerebral Ischemia Rats

Objective To investigate the effect of moxibustion on cell damage and hippocampal glutamate transporter expression in the hippocampal CA1 region of cerebral ischemia rats,and to explore its possible mechanism. Methods Male SD rats were prepared by modified four-vessel occlusion method and then divided into four groups:model group,sham operation group,moxibustion group,moxibustion + sham operation group,10 rats in each group. Moxibustion group and moxibustion + sham operation group were treated with moxibustion Baihui acupoint. Pathological changes in brain tissue were observed with HE staining;Detection of GLT-1 protein expression in hippocampal tissue by Western blot;RT-PCR was used to detect the expression of GLT-1 mRNA in hippocampus. Results Compared with the model group,the hippocampal CA1 area of pyramidal cells in the moxibustion group was not significantly damaged,the histological cell shape was significantly improved,the histological grade was significantly reduced(P<0.05),and the neuron density was significantly increased(P<0.05). Moxibustion can up-regulate the expression of GLT-1 mRNA in hippocampus of cerebral ischemia rats(P<0.01). Moxibustion can increase GLT-1 protein expression in hippocampus of cerebral ischemia rats(P<0.05). Conclusion Moxibustion therapy can promote hippocampal vertebral cell repair in cerebral ischemic injury. Its mechanism may be related to regulating GLT-1 expression,regulating neurotransmitters and protecting hippocampal tissues.
