A rat spinal cord injury model was established using the Allen's method. Spinal nerve function was assessed by Basso Beattie Bresnahan (score) and somatosensory evoked potential (sEP) assays. mRNA levels were detected using RT-qPCR. Western blot was used to detect protein levels.Results: After modeling, the BBB scores of the rats were significantly decreased. After the intervention, the BBB scores of the three groups were improved. The BBB scores of the Ch ABC+ spinal cord group were significantly higher than those of the Ch ABC group. After modeling, the SEP of the rats was significantly increased. After the intervention, the BBB scores of the three groups were decreased. The BBB scores of the Ch ABC+ spinal cord group were significantly lower than those of the Ch ABC group. The TGF-β1 in the Ch ABC group and the Ch ABC+ spinal group was significantly higher than that in the model group, and the HIF-1 was significantly lower than the model group. The level of TGF-β1 in Ch ABC+ spinal cord group was significantly higher than that in Ch ABC group and HIF-1 was significantly lower than that in Ch ABC group. After treatment, the expression levels of Nog-oNgR pathway in Ch ABC group and Ch ABC + spinal cord group were significantly lower than those in model group, and the expression levels of Nogo-A, NgR and LINGO-1 in Ch ABC+ spinal cord group were significant after intervention. Lower than Ch ABC group.Conclusion: ChABC combined with spinal cord has a stronger role in promoting the recovery of neurological function. The combination of spinal cord can further inhibit the level of HIF-1 and increase the level of TGF-β1, and improve the prognosis to promote spinal healing. And the mechanism of action of the combination may be related to its role in inhibiting the growth of neurons by the Nogo-NgR signaling pathway.展开更多
