摘要
目的:观察补肾活血方对强直性脊柱炎(AS)患者细胞核因子-κB受体活化因子配体(RANKL)、护骨素(OPG)的影响。方法:将65例AS患者随机分为2组:西医组(32例)采用柳氮磺胺吡啶治疗;中西医结合组(33例)采用补肾活血方联合柳氮磺胺吡啶治疗,均治疗3月。运用ELISA法测血清RANKL、OPG、骨钙素(OC)、Ⅰ型胶原C端肽(CTX)的表达水平。结果:2组治疗后血清RANKL含量均较治疗前明显下降(P<0.05,P<0.01),OPG含量均较治疗前明显升高(P<0.05),RANKL/OPG比值显著下降(P<0.05,P<0.01)。治疗后2组RANKL、RANKL/OPG比值比较,差异也有显著性意义(P<0.05)。治疗后2组血清OC水平均较治疗前显著升高(P<0.05,P<0.01),CTX水平均较治疗前显著降低(P<0.05,P<0.01),且中西医结合组OC水平变化更为显著(P<0.05)。结论:补肾活血方影响R ANKL/R ANK/OPG系统可能是其阻止AS骨质破坏的作用机理之一。
Objective: To observe the effect of Bushen Huoxue Decoction on receptor activator of nuclear factors-kappa B ligand (RANKL)and osteoprotegerin(OPG) in patients with ankylosing spondylitis (AS). Methods:Sixty-five patients with AS were randomized into two groups. Western medicine group (n=32) was treated with sulfasalazine (SSZ) for three months. Combination group (n=33) was treated with Bushen Huoxue Decoction combined with SSZ for three months too. Serum levels of RANKL, OPG, osteocalcin(OC) and C-terminal cross-linking telopeptide of type I collagen (CTX)were detected by ELISA. Results: Serum RANKL levels was decreased obviously in both groups after treatment(P 〈 0.05, P 〈 0.01compared with that before treatment).Serum OPG level was elevated significantly in both groups after treatment(P 〈 0.05). RANKL/OPG ratio was decreased obviously in both groups after treatment (P 〈 0.05, P 〈 0.01 compared with that before treatment). There was significant difference between the two groups after treatment(P 〈 0.05).Serum OC level was elevated obviously and serum CTX level was decreased obviously after treatment (P 〈 0.05, P 〈 0.01 compared with those before treatment). There was significant difference between the two groups after treatment in serum OC level (P 〈 0.05). Conclusion. Bushen Huoxue Decoction has an effect on regulating RANKL/RANKL/OPG system, which may be one of its mechanisms in preventing bone destruction in AS patients.
