文题释义:
Notch信号通路:Notch是一类跨细胞膜受体蛋白,当其与受体结合并水解时,产生称为Notch胞内域的结构,作为转录因子调节目标基因表达。Notch信号通路与周围神经修复过程中的作用已经受到广泛关注。同时,Notch信号通路也被报道在维持干细胞特性以及介导数种干细胞向特定细胞系分化过程中均发挥重要作用。
微小RNA:是一类小分子的非编码单链RNA,其长度20-25个核苷酸。这些小RNA能够与特定的mRNA结合,调控或阻断蛋白编码基因的表达,控制其最终成为蛋白的过程。近年来,学者们发现其在骨髓间充质干细胞的多样化表达进程中具有重要调控作用,这种作用既可体现在转录水平上,又在转录后调控中得到显现,其中主要在转录后水平负性调控靶基因的表达。
摘要
背景
:神经损伤修复是外科临床和基础研究的主要热点之一。小间隙套管治疗周围神经损伤的作用在前期研究中已经得到证实,但详细机制未能明确。同时Notch信号通路和微小RNA系统逐渐成为该领域的潜在热点,但二者的相关作用尚未得到明确报道证实。
目的:观察携带骨髓间充质干细胞的小间隙套管对周围神经损伤的治疗作用,探究Notch信号通路和miR-21在治疗过程中的相互作用关系。
方法:体内实验中制造SD大鼠喉返神经8 mm缺损模型,分为假手术组、小间隙组和小间隙+骨髓间充质干细胞组,治疗后测定电生理结果,Western blot测定Notch信号通路和微小RNA表达情况。体外实验中在小间隙套管内培养骨髓间充质干细胞并行神经元方向诱导,通过改变Notch/miR21表达情况,检测神经标记物的表达情况,分析骨髓间充质干细胞活性变化。
结果与结论:神经染色和肌电图结果均确认了骨髓间充质干细胞的治疗效果。在骨髓间充质干细胞向神经细胞分化过程中,Notch信号表达明显增强,miR-21表达明显上扬。通过进一步调控两因素表达发现,人为激活Notch信号或使miR-21过表达后骨髓间充质干细胞向神经分化的能力明显增强,抑制Notch信号后,骨髓间充质干细胞神经分化能力减弱,同时miR-21的促进作用失效。发现Notch信号通路和miR-21为骨髓间充质干细胞联合小间隙套接治疗周围神经损伤可能的重要促进机制,其中Notch信号通路具有更高级别的促进或抑制作用等级。

Abstract:

BACKGROUND: Nerve injury repair is one of the major surgical hot spots in clinical and basic research. Small-gap sleeve method has been confirmed to have therapeutic effects on peripheral nerve injuries, but the detailed mechanism is unclear. The Notch signaling pathway and the microRNA system have gradually become potential hotspots in this field, but their interactions have not yet been clearly reported.
OBJECTIVE: To observe the performance of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells-packed small-gap sleeve in the treatment of peripheral nerve injuries and to explore the interactions of Notch signaling pathway and miR-21 during the repair process.
METHODS: Models of 8 mm-recurrent laryngeal nerve defects were made in Sprague-Dawley rats and randomly divided into three groups: sham operation group, small-gap sleeve group and combined group (small-gap sleeve carrying bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells). After transplantation, neuroelectrophysiological results were measured, and the expression of Notch signal and miR-21 was determined by western blot assay. Bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells cultured in a small-gap sleeve undertook neuronal induction. By changing the expression of Notch/miR21, we detected the expression of neural markers and analyzed the activity of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: Transplantation of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells had therapeutic effects on peripheral nerve injuries as confirmed by neurostaining and electromyogram. During the neural differentiation of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells, the expressions of Notch signal and miR-21 were significantly increased. Activation of Notch signal or miR-21 overexpression could strengthen the neural differentiation of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells, while inhibition of Notch signal weakened the neural differentiation of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells, and miR-21 lost its promotion effect. Overall, Notch signaling pathway and miR-21 are considered to promote the therapeutic effects of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells combined with small-gap sleeve for peripheral nerve injuries, in which Notch signaling pathway has stronger promotion or inhibition roles.
