摘要


BACKGROUND:The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of aquaporin 1 (AQP1) knockdown on allodynia in rats with chronic compression of the dorsal root ganglia (DRG) and the role of TRPV4 in these effects. METHODS:Adult male Wistar rats were subjected to chronic compression of the dorsal root ganglia (CCD) via surgery. Behavioral tests were performed to calculate the paw withdrawal mechanical threshold (PWMT). Gene silence was induced by injecting rats with lentivirus expressing AQP1 short hairpin RNA (shRNA, Lv-shAQP1). Western blot analyses were performed to examine AQP1 and TRPV4 protein expression. The concentration of cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP) was determined via enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. RESULTS:AQP1 protein levels in DRG neurons were significantly increased in CCD rats and were accompanied by a decrease in the PWMT. Lentivirus-mediated RNA interference of AQP1 decreased AQP1 protein expression in CCD rats and normalized their PWMT, but not in rats infected with lentivirus-expressing negative control short hairpin RNA. Furthermore, AQP1 was identified as a cGMP-gated channel. cGMP concentration was upregulated in CCD rats. This effect was attenuated by treatment with a cGMP inhibitor. Additionally, the cGMP inhibitor decreased the mechanical allodynia and AQP1 protein expression in CCD rats. Finally, levels of TRPV4 expression were upregulated in DRG neurons and the L4/L5 spinal cord following surgery, and these effects were reversed by treatment with Lv-shAQP1 or a cGMP inhibitor. CONCLUSION:AQP1 plays a vital role in CCD-induced allodynia as Lv-shAQP1 significantly reduced the allodynia in CCD rats by inhibiting TRPV4 expression.
