BACKGROUND: Hydrogen sulfide (H2S), as a novel gaseous messenger molecule, plays an important role in signal transduction and biological modulation.
PURPOSE: In the present study the effect of H2S after compression injury of cauda equina was studied.
STUDY DESIGN: The setting of this study is the laboratory investigation.
METHODS: A total of 162 rats were randomly allocated into three groups: sham group, compression group, and H2S group. Cauda equina compression (CEC) injury in rats was induced by implanting silicone gels (10×1×1 mm) into the epidural spaces L5 and L6; laminectomy was performed at the L4 level of the vertebra in the sham-operated group. The experimental group was treated with sodium hydrosulfide intraperitoneally (20 µmol/kg body weight), whereas the compression and sham groups received equal volumes of physiological saline. Levels of malonaldehyde (MDA) and glutathione (GSH) were determined immediately before CEC surgery, 12 h, 24 h, 48 h, and 72 h after CEC surgery. Furthermore, hematoxylin and eosin (H&E) staining and terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase-mediated biotinylated UTP nick-end labeling (TUNEL) assay were performed 48 h after CEC.
RESULTS: Hematoxylin and eosin staining showed that myelin sheath and the cauda equina fibers in the compression group were less compact and highly degenerated compared with the sham group, and that H2S treatment could improve the status. Terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase-mediated biotinylated UTP nick-end labeling staining exhibited that decreased number of TUNEL positive cells was found in the H2S group than in the compression group. The level of MDA was increased in the sham and H2S groups compared with the compression group (p<.05, p<.01), whereas the level of GSH was decreased (p<.05, p<.01).
CONCLUSIONS: With the above data, we conclude that H2S could reduce the oxidative stress and has neuroprotective effect in acute cauda equina syndrome.
