METHODS
Forty SD rats were randomly divided into 5 groups, namely sham bone cancer, bone cancer pain, morphine tolerance, bone-edge EA, and sham EA (n= 8 rats in each group). The bone cancer with morphine tolerance model was established by intramedullary injection of MRMT-1 cells into the tibial cavity, and then intraperitoneal injection of morphine hydrochloride injection. After successful establishment of morphine tolerance model, the bone-edge EA (2 Hz/100 Hz,0.5-1.5 mA) was applied to bilateral "Zusanli" (ST36) and "Kunlun" (BL60) for 30 min, once a day for 7 days, after inserting the needle-tip to the tibial bone surface. The ipsilateral mechanical paw withdrawal thresholds (PWTs) were detected dynamically. The expression levels of GRK5, β-arrestin 2, PKCα and p-PKCα in the LC area were measured by Western blot.RESULTS
The PWTs of bone cancer pain rats were decreased on day 10 after inoculation of cancer cells (P<0.01). After i.p. of morphine for 11 days, no analgesic effect and pain tolerance appeared (P>0.05). The PWTs were significantly increased in the bone-edge EA intervention group (P<0.01), not in the sham EA group (P>0.05). In comparison with the sham bone cancer group, the expression of GRK5 protein in morphine tolerance group was significantly decreased (P<0.01); compared with morphine tolerance group, the expression of GRK5 protein in bone-edge EA group was increased(P<0.01). In comparison with the sham bone cancer group, the expression of β-arrestin 2 and p-PKCα in bone cancer group significantly increased (P<0.01). After the intervention, the increased β-arrestin 2 and p-PKCα expressions were reversed in the bone-edge EA group (P<0.01); compared with morphine tolerance group and sham EA group, the expression of PKCα protein was decreased(P<0.01).
