摘要:


文题释义:

内质网应激:葡萄糖/营养素缺乏、蛋白质糖基化抑制、二硫键形成障碍、蛋白质转运异常、Ca2+耗竭等刺激均可导致内质网功能失调,即内质网应激。
茶多酚:别名茶蹂质、茶单宁,经非发酵程序从绿茶的叶中加工而成,是茶叶中儿茶素类、丙酮类、酚酸类和花色素类化合物的总称,约占绿茶干质量的30%。它是一种稠环芳香烃,属黄烷醇类,主要成分包括儿茶素、黄酮、黄酮醇类、花青素类、花白素类、酚酸及缩酚酸类。


背景:研究表明,抑制内质网应激所致的细胞凋亡能够挽救神经部分功能。茶多酚能抑制内质网应激,但是存在生物利用率差不易透血脑屏障等问题,结合外泌体靶向脊髓修复及高效载药,理论上两者结合能够发挥更优的脊髓保护效能。

目的:探讨茶多酚联合骨髓间充质干细胞外泌体对脊髓缺血再灌注损伤大鼠神经功能及内质网应激的影响。
方法:SD雄性大鼠50只,随机分为假手术组、模型组、茶多酚组、外泌体组、联合治疗组,每组10只,除假手术组外,其余4组制作脊髓缺血再灌注损伤模型,术后2 h经尾静脉注射生理盐水、外泌体、茶多酚、茶多酚+骨髓间充质干细胞外泌体混合液;脊髓损伤后7,14,28 d进行BBB神经功能评分,脊髓损伤后14 d,取脊髓组织进行苏木精-伊红染色、尼氏染色、ATF6和GADD153内质网应激标志物免疫荧光染色。

结果与结论:①神经功能评分:与假手术组比较,模型组、外泌体组、茶多酚组、联合治疗组神经功能评分均不同程度下降,术后14 d联合治疗组神经功能评分优于茶多酚组、外泌体组、模型组(P < 0.05),术后28 d后联合治疗组神经功能评分优于模型组和茶多酚组(P < 0.05);②苏木精-伊红染色和尼氏染色显示:模型组大鼠神经元细胞数量减少,脊髓损伤区域内大量空洞坏死及瘢痕增生,茶多酚组、外泌体组、联合治疗组神经元数量和周边空洞坏死有不同程度改善,联合治疗组改善最为明显;③内质网应激相关蛋白ATF6、GADD153表达:术后14 d联合治疗组GADD153表达低于模型组和茶多酚组(P < 0.05),联合治疗组ATF6表达低于模型组、外泌体组和茶多酚组(P < 0.05);④结果表明:茶多酚联合骨髓间充质干细胞外泌体能改善脊髓缺血再灌注损伤大鼠的神经功能,可能与抑制内质网应激相关蛋白ATF6、GADD153表达有关。

Abstract: BACKGROUND: Studies have exhibited that inhibiting apoptosis caused by endoplasmic reticulum stress can save part of nerve function. Epigallocatechin-3-gallate can inhibit endoplasmic reticulum stress, but it has poor bioavailability and is difficult to penetrate the blood-brain barrier. In combination with exosomes targeting spinal cord repair and high-potency drug loading, theoretically, the combination of the two can play a greater role in spinal cord protection. 
OBJECTIVE: To investigate the effects of epigallocatechin-3-gallate combined with bone marrow mesenchymal stem cell exosomes on endoplasmic reticulum stress and neurological function in rats with spinal cord ischemia/reperfusion injury. 
METHODS: Fifty SD male rats were randomly divided into sham surgery group, model group, epigallocatechin-3-gallate group, exosome group, and combined treatment group, with 10 rats in each group. The spinal cord ischemia/reperfusion injury model was made in the other four groups except for the sham surgery group. Local injection of physiological saline, exosomes, epigallocatechin-3-gallate, epigallocatechin-3-gallate + bone marrow mesenchymal stem cell exosomes was performed 2 hours after surgery through a caudal vein. Neurological function scores were performed on 7, 14 and 28 days after spinal cord injury. 14 days after spinal cord injury, hematoxylin-eosin staining, Nissl staining, and immunofluorescence staining of endoplasmic reticulum stress markers such as ATF6 and GADD153 were performed in the spinal cord tissues. 

RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: (1) Compared with the sham surgery group, neurological function scores of the model group, exosome group, epigallocatechin-3-gallate group and combined treatment group all decreased to different degrees. The neurological function score of combined treatment group was better than that of the epigallocatechin-3-gallate group, exosome group and model group 14 days after surgery (P < 0.05). The neurological function score of the combined treatment group was better than that of the model group and epigallocatechin-3-gallate group 28 days after surgery (P < 0.05). (2) Hematoxylin-eosin staining and Nissl staining displayed that the number of neurons in the model group decreased, with a large number of cavity necrosis and scar hyperplasia in the spinal cord injury area. The number of neurons and peripheral cavity necrosis improved to varying degrees in the epigallocatechin-3-gallate group, exosome group, and combined treatment group, with the most significant improvement in the combined treatment group. (3) The expression of endoplasmic reticulum stress-related proteins ATF6 and GADD153: 14 days postoperatively, the expression of GADD153 in the combined treatment group was lower than that in the model group and epigallocatechin-3-gallate group (P < 0.05), and the expression of ATF6 in the combined treatment group was lower than that in the model group, exosome group, and epigallocatechin-3-gallate group (P < 0.05). (4) These findings confirm that epigallocatechin-3-gallate combined with bone marrow mesenchymal stem cell exosome can enhance the neurological function in rats with spinal cord ischemia/reperfusionn injury, which may be associated with the inhibition of the expression of endoplasmic reticulum stress-related proteins ATF6 and GADD153.
