چکیده

Resumen Context: The aqueous extract of Mangifera indica L. stem bark (MSBE) shows antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and analgesic properties. Aims: To test the MSBE in chronic constriction injury (CCI) of the sciatic nerve in rats, a classical model of neuropathic pain. Methods: Given the possibility that some clinical effect of MSBE can appear only after its chronic administration, we designed a long term medication protocol with 500 mg/kg, p.o. or distilled water daily during 8 days from 9 days post-CCI. Pregabalin (10 mg/kg, p.o.) was used as reference drug. Sham CCI animals received vehicle. Behavioral tests were carried out before CCI, at 9 and 16 days after injury. A section of sciatic nerve, 5 mm distal to the ligature site was dissected for histopathological studies. A single oral similar dose or vehicle was administered to mononeuropathic rats, 14 days after surgery. Mechano-hyperalgesia and thermal hyperalgesia of the ipsilateral paw were determined using a modification of pin prick method and the unilateral hot plate, respectively before CCI, 0, 30, 60, 120 and 180 min post-administration. Results: Repeated oral MSBE doses reduced nociceptive score, increased paw withdrawal latency and attenuated CCI-induced Wallerian degeneration-related changes involved in the hyperalgesic state of CCI rats. Likewise, MSBE shows significant mechanical and thermal antihyperalgesic effect from 1h after its single administration. Conclusions: The study of MSBE should be focused in neuropathic pain models since this natural product could have a clinical relevance in the treatment of neuropathic pain syndromes. Contexto: El extracto acuoso de la corteza del árbol del mango Mangifera indica L (ECAM) muestra propiedades antioxidantes, antiinflamatorias y analgésicas. Objetivos: Evaluar el ECAM en el modelo de daño por constricción crónica del nervio ciático (CCI) en ratas, un modelo clásico de dolor neuropático. Métodos: Dada la posibilidad de que algunos efectos clínicos del ECAM puedan aparecer tras su administración crónica, se diseñó un protocolo de suministro a largo plazo con dosis orales de ECAM 500 mg/kg, p.o. o agua destilada durante 8 días desde el día 9 post-CCI. Se utilizó la pregabalina (10 mg/kg, p.o.) como fármaco de referencia. Los animales falsos operados recibieron vehículo. Las pruebas conductuales fueron conducidas antes del CCI, a los 9 y 16 días post-CCI. Una sección del nervio ciático 5 mm distal a la ligadura fue disecada para los estudios histopatológicos. Se estableció un protocolo de administración única a la misma dosis o vehículo 14 días tras la cirugía. Se evaluó la hiperalgesia mecánica y térmica de la pata ipsilateral utilizando una modificación del método de pin prick y el plato caliente unilateral, respectivamente antes del CCI, 0, 30, 60, 120 y 180 min post-administración. Resultados: ECAM suministrado a dosis repetidas redujo las escalas nociceptivas, incrementó la latencia de retirada de la pata y atenuó la degeneración Walleriana implicada en la hiperalgesia de las ratas CCI. Igualmente mostró efecto anti-hiperalgésico desde la primera hora tras su administración. Conclusiones: El estudio del ECAM debería ser enfocado hacia los modelos de dolor neuropático ya que el producto podría tener relevancia clínica en el tratamiento de estos síndromes.
