中药治疗腰椎椎体间融合术后发热的炎症信号通路

Inflammatory signaling pathways in traditional Chinese medicine for treating fever after lumbar interbody fusion surgery

背景:术后发热是后路腰椎椎体间融合后常见临床症状之一,目前没有明确的病因病机,患者术后体温易反复,病程较久,西药治疗效果欠佳,影响患者术后恢复。目的:综述总结炎症信号通路和术后发热的关联及中药防治后路腰椎椎体间融合后发热的机制,为研究术后发热继续探索新的治疗药物。方法:检索CNKI中国期刊全文数据库、万方数据库和PubMed数据库2006年6月至2023年12月收录的文献,中文检索词为“中药,术后发热,炎症,白细胞介素1,白细胞介素6,白细胞介素8,干扰素γ,肿瘤坏死因子,前列腺素E2,p38丝裂原活化蛋白激酶,核因子κB,Toll样受体,Janus激酶/信号转导和转录激活因子,Notch信号通路”;英文检索词为“medicinal herb,postoperative fever,inflammation,interleukin-1,interleukin-6,interleukin-8,γ-interferon,tumor necrosis factor,Prostaglandin E2,p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase,nuclear factor-κB,toll-like receptor,janus kinases/signal transducer and activator of transcription,notch signaling pathway”。阅读文章剔除研究内容不相关、质量差的文献,纳入100篇文献进行归纳总结。结果与结论:(1)手术造成软组织创伤促使机体释放炎症因子,促炎因子作用于下丘脑前部的体温调节中心,促使发热;(2)术后切口内出血及渗液等的吸收,吞噬细胞吞噬坏死细胞的蛋白分解产物后,产生内生致热原(白细胞介素、肿瘤坏死因子、干扰素等)导致发热;(3)细胞因子通过炎症信号通路发挥致炎作用,促使发热;(4)中药或中药复方可以调控炎症信号通路发挥抗炎解热作用防治术后发热;目前中药作用机制尚无定论,应深入研究阐明中医药防治术后发热的相关信号通路,运用现代技术把细胞分子技术与中医药药理作用机制联系起来,以便指导临床医生用药,促进患者术后恢复;(5)中药联合西药治疗术后发热是未来的研究热点,应充分发挥中医药优势,明确不同证型应用中药单体或有效成分提取物和中药汤剂的靶点作用机制。

BACKGROUND:Postoperative fever is one of the common clinical symptoms after posterior lumbar interbody fusion.There is no clear etiology or pathogenesis.The postoperative body temperature of patients is easy to repeat,the course of the disease is long,and the therapeutic effect of western medicine is poor,which affects the postoperative recovery of patients.OBJECTIVE:To review the relationship between inflammatory signaling pathways and postoperative fever and the mechanism of Chinese medicine in preventing and treating fever after posterior lumbar interbody fusion,and to explore new therapeutic drugs for postoperative fever.METHODS:The CNKI Chinese Journal full-text database,WanFang database,and PubMed database were searched for articles published from June 2006 to December 2023.Chinese search terms were“Chinese medicine,postoperative fever,inflammation,interleukin-1,interleukin-6,interleukin-8,interferon gamma,tumor necrosis factor,prostaglandin E2,p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase,nuclear factor-κB,Toll-like receptor,Janus kinases/signal transduction and transcriptional activator,Notch signaling pathway.”English search terms were“medicinal herb,postoperative fever,inflammation,interleukin-1,interleukin-6,interleukin-8,γ-interferon,tumor necrosis factor,prostaglandin E2,p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase,nuclear factor-κB,toll-like receptor,janus kinases/signal transducer and activator of transcription,notch signaling pathway.”Articles with irrelevant research content and poor quality were excluded,and 100 articles were included and summarized.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)The operation induced the release of inflammatory factors,and the pro-inflammatory factors acted on the thermoregulatory center in the anterior hypothalamus to promote fever.(2)The absorption of bleeding and oozing fluid in the incision after surgery,and the phagocytosis of the egg white decomposition products of the necrotic cells,produce endogenous pyrogen(interleukin,tumor necrosis factor,interferon,etc.),leading to fever.(3)Cytokines pass through inflammatory signals,play an inflammatory role,and promote fever.(4)Chinese herbs or Chinese herbal compounds can regulate inflammatory signaling pathways and play an anti-inflammatory and antipyretic role in preventing and treating postoperative fever.Due to the lack of the mechanism of action of traditional Chinese medicine,it is necessary to further study and clarify the signaling pathways related to the prevention and treatment of postoperative fever by traditional Chinese medicine,and use modern technology to link cellular and molecular technology with the pharmacological mechanism of traditional Chinese medicine,so as to guide clinicians to use medicine and promote postoperative recovery of patients.(5)Chinese medicine combined with Western medicine in the treatment of postoperative fever is a future research hotspot.We should give full play to the advantages of Chinese medicine,and clarify the target mechanism of action of different syndrome types of Chinese medicine monomer or active ingredient extracts and Chinese medicine decoction.
