Spermidine reduced neuropathic pain in chronic constriction injury‐induced peripheral neuropathy in rats

AlexandrosSfakianakis shared this article with you from Inoreader

Abstract

Neuropathic pain is one of the most critical types of chronic pain despite the increasing advances in medical science. Spermidine (SPD) is a natural polyamine that has wide roles in several cellular processes inducing autophagy and reducing oxidative stress. This study aimed to investigate the effects of SPD on oxidative stress markers and pain threshold in the neuropathic rat model of chronic constriction injury (CCI) model. Eighteen adult male rats were divided into 3 groups: sham, CCI and CCI+ SPD. After induction of neuropathy via CCI model in the CCI and CCI+SPD groups, SPD (1 mg/kg/day, orally) was administered to the CCI+SPD group for 3 weeks. The behavioral tests (von Frey, hot plate) were done 4 times during the experiment. At the end of the study, electrophysiological tests, the H & E staining, and oxidative stress assay of the prefrontal cortex (PFC), spinal cord, and sciatic nerve were performed. The threshold of pain in hot plate and von Frey tests was significant ly lower in the CCI group than the sham group, which was reversed by SPD treatment in the CCI+ SPD group. In addition, nerve conduction was considerably lower in the CCI group than in the sham and CCI+SPD groups (P<0.01, P< 0.05, respectively). The CCI group showed neuronal degeneration and fibrosis in the different tissues in the H & E assay; elevated tissues level of nitrite, decreased levels of SOD, GPx, and catalase were also observed. However, SPD treatment modulated the pathological changes and oxidative stress biomarkers.

In conclusion, SPD showed beneficial effects in decreasing neuropathic pains. SPD treatment reduced oxidative stress, improved histopathological changes and behavioral tests in the CCI-induced neuropathic pain in in vivo model.
