Abstract:

ObjectiveTo investigate the therapeutic effect and mechanism of Miao medicine Rubus pluribracteatus on dextran sodium sulfate DSS-induced ulcerative colitis UCin mice. MethodsFifty male C57BL/6 mice were randomly divided into control groupmodel groupmesalazine groupR. pluribracteatus low-dose group and R. pluribracteatus high-dose groupwith 10 mice in each group. The control group drank water for 7 daysand the other groups were given 3%DSS solution for 7 days to construct UC mouse model. Thereaftereach group was gavaged for 7 days. During the modeling and administration periodthe disease activity indexDAIof mice in each group was measured. After the last administrationblood extraction of inner canthus was completed and the mice in each group were sacrificed and the whole colonfrom cecum to anuswas cut to measure the length of the colon. Hematoxylin and eosin staining was used to observe the pathological morphologyenzyme linked immunosorbent assay was used to detect the levels of tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α) and diamine oxidaseDAOin serumand Western blot was used to detect the expression of Occludinmucin 2Muc2), and zonula occludens-1ZO-1in colon tissue. ResultsR. pluribracteatus could reduce DAI scores of UC miceincrease the length of the colonalleviate the histological changes of colon tissuedecrease the levels of TNF-α and DAO in serumand upregulate the expression levels of OccludinMuc2  and ZO-1. ConclusionMiao medicine R. pluribracteatus may treat UC by promoting the expression of OccludinMuc2 and ZO-1 proteins and improving intestinal mucosal barrier function.
