文题释义:
循环压力:椎间盘可因异常的力学作用而导致其发生退变,力学刺激中压力已被证明可导致椎间盘的合成代谢减弱,分解代谢增强,细胞发生退变,前期研究表明对小型动物兔脊柱施加0.1-0.3 MPa,每12-24 h加压1次,每次30-120 min可在不导致椎间盘组织坏死的情况下使终板软骨发生退变。
器官培养:将具有较高面积-容积比的小型动物兔的椎间盘完整取出置于含有青链双抗(青霉素50 U/mL和链霉素50 mg/L)、体积分数20%胎牛血清的DMEM/F12(1∶1)培养液的培养皿里,再放进37 ℃和体积分数5%CO2培养箱进行培养,既可克服在在体动物上加力的不稳定性,又可避免细胞培养中易发生活性丢失的问题。

 

摘要
背景
:椎间盘终板软骨在一定的循环压力作用下会发生形态学的退变,重要的细胞外基质降低,而同时Wnt-5a基因的表达随着加力时间的延长逐渐降低,Wnt-5a基因与椎间盘退变存在某种重要的内在联系。
目的:检测循环压力诱导下Wnt-5a基因在兔椎间盘退变器官模型中的表达变化,探讨其与椎间盘退变之间的关系。
方法:选取6月龄新西兰大白兔,取出腰椎间盘制备椎间盘退变器官模型,随机分为加力组和对照组,对照组不加力。利用苏木精-伊红染色及番红O固绿染色观察2组大体组织变化;运用Real time PCR法检测各组软骨中Wnt-5a、Ⅱ型胶原以及蛋白多糖基因的表达,Western-blotting检测Wnt-5a蛋白在各组中表达量的变化。
结果与结论:①对照组及加力组椎间盘器官培养至第7天,其组织形态学在一定程度上发生改变,大体结构完整,Wnt-5a、Ⅱ型胶原以及蛋白多糖等基因的表达与0 d对照组相比呈现出差异化,14 d加力组以及对照组较0 d组在组织形态学上差异更加明显;②7 d加力组、14 d加力组及对照组中的Wnt-5a、Ⅱ型胶原以及蛋白多糖等基因表达下降,Wnt-5a蛋白的表达变化趋势与基因水平检测结果一致,但加力组较未加力各组基因表达降低更加显著,加力组中随加压时间的延长各组基因表达进行性降低;③结果提示,通过调节Wnt-5a基因的表达,可能会影响终板软骨细胞的退变进程,进而为椎间盘退变的防治提供新思路。

Abstract:

BACKGROUND: Important extracellular matrixes are reduced with the prolongation of duration of cyclic pressure in the endplate of the intervertebral disc. Meanwhile, the expression of Wnt-5a gene is significantly decreased. There is an important relationship between Wnt-5a gene and intervertebral disc degeneration (IDD).
OBJECTIVE: To investigate the expression of Wnt-5a gene under cyclic pressure in a rabbit model of IDD and to explore its role in IDD progress.
METHODS: Lumbar intervertebral discs were removed from the 6-month-old New Zealand white rabbits to prepare IDD models and were then randomly divided into experimental (cyclic pressure ) and control (no intervention) groups. The morphological changes of intervertebral discs were observed by hematoxylin-eosin staining and safranin O-fast green staining. The mRNA expression levels of proteoglycan, collagen type II, and Wnt-5a were detected by real-time PCR. The protein expression level of Wnt-5a was detected by western blot assay.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: The morphology of intervertebral discs cultured for 7 days in the experimental and control groups showed a certain change, but was still intact; expression levels of aggrecan, type II collagen, Wnt-5a showed differences from the intervertebral discs cultured for 0 day. On day 14, the damage to the histomorphology was severer in the experimental group than the 0-day control group. The mRNA expression levels of proteoglycan, collagen type II, and Wnt-5a were decreased in both groups, especially the experimental group, at 7 and14 days. The mRNA and protein expression levels of Wnt-5a revealed the same change trend with time. To conclude, regulation of Wnt-5a expression may alter the process of endplate cartilage degeneration, and thus providing new ideas for the prevention and treatment of IDD.
