文题释义:
睫状神经营养因子:
作为一种神经营养因子,对颅内损伤后视神经纤维的再生具有关键作用,可通过释放有丝分裂因子,促进有丝分裂后神经元的存活以及未成熟背根神经节神经元的发生与分化;此外,过表达睫状神经营养因子对于脊髓损伤也具有一定的保护作用。
嗅鞘细胞:是一种特殊的胶质细胞,具有神经营养、抑制胶质增生等作用,为轴突生长提供了适宜的环境,能够促进中枢神经元再生。嗅鞘细胞移植用于治疗脊髓损伤已经多有报道,但其效果有限以及作用机制尚不清晰,同时也存在一些不足之处,如目前无论是动物实验或是临床试验主要都是嗅球源性嗅鞘细胞,需要加大嗅黏膜源性嗅鞘细胞的研究应用力度,解决来源问题或者建立嗅鞘细胞系为后续的研究提供便捷。

 

摘要
背景:
以往研究证实,睫状神经营养因子与嗅鞘细胞单独应用均对脊髓损伤具有一定的治疗作用,但两者联合应用是否有更好的治疗效果尚未见报道。
目的:慢病毒介导睫状神经营养因子基因修饰嗅鞘细胞移植对大鼠脊髓损伤的作用及其相关机制。
方法:①体外实验:实验分为4组,对照组进行脊髓神经元细胞单独培养,模型组进行脊髓神经元细胞单独培养,正常嗅鞘细胞共培养组采用Transwell小室进行脊髓神经元细胞与正常嗅鞘细胞共培养,过表达嗅鞘细胞共培养组采用Transwell小室进行脊髓神经元细胞与睫状神经营养因子过表达嗅鞘细胞共培养,后3组给予海仁藻酸建立神经元细胞损伤模型。共培养12 h后,采用CCK8法检测细胞活力,qRT-PCR与Western blot检测脊髓神经元细胞中BAX、BCL-2、Caspase3、CNTF的表达;②体内实验:实验分为4组,假手术组、模型组、治疗组、联合治疗组,后3组采用改良Allen’s重物打击法制作脊髓损伤大鼠模型,造模1周后,治疗组、联合治疗组分别在损伤区上、下1 mm处各注射5 µL嗅鞘细胞悬液或睫状神经营养因子过表达嗅鞘细胞悬液,假手术组与模型组大鼠依照同样的方法注射等量培养基;③治疗后4周,采用BBB评分与爬网格实验评估大鼠运动能力、苏木精-伊红染色检测脊髓损伤的病理进展、qRT-PCR与Western blot检测脊髓组织中BAX、BCL-2、Caspase3、CNTF的表达。
结果与结论:①睫状神经营养因子基因修饰的嗅鞘细胞能显著抑制细胞损伤以及脊髓损伤(P < 0.001);显著提高睫状神经营养因子的表达水平(P < 0.01)以及显著降低凋亡相关分子BAX、BCL-2、Caspase3的表达水平(P < 0.01);②睫状神经营养因子基因修饰的嗅鞘细胞移植能够改善脊髓损伤引起的运动功能下降,其机制可能与下调BAX、BCL-2、Caspase3表达,降低脊髓神经元细胞凋亡相关。

Abstract:

BACKGROUND: Previous studies have confirmed that both ciliary neurotrophic factor and olfactory ensheathing cells have a certain therapeutic effect on spinal cord injury, but there is no report on whether their combination treatment has a better therapeutic effect.
OBJECTIVE: To explore the effect of lentiviral-mediated transplantation of olfactory ensheathing cells modified with ciliary neurotrophic factor gene in rats with spinal cord injury and its related mechanisms. 
METHODS: (1) In vitro experiment: There were four groups in the in vitro experiment: spinal cord neurons in control group and model group were cultured alone, while in overexpression co-culture group and normal co-culture group, Transwell chamber was used to establish the co-culture model of spinal cord neurons and olfactory ensheathing cells modified by ciliary neurotrophic factor gene or not. Alginate was given to damage the cells in the latter three groups. After 12 hours of co-culture, cell counting kit-8 assay was used to detect cell viability; qRT-PCR and western blot were used to detect the expression of BAX, BCL-2, Caspase 3 and ciliary neurotrophic factor in spinal neurons. (2) In vivo experiment: There were four groups in the in vivo experiment: sham operation group, model group, treatment group, and combination treatment group. Modified Allen’s method was used to make the rat model of spinal cord injury in the latter three groups. At 1 week after modeling, 5 µL of olfactory ensheathing cell suspension or ciliary neurotrophic factor overexpressing olfactory ensheathing cell suspension was injected 1 mm above and below the injured site in the treatment and combination treatment groups, respectively; similarly, the same volume of culture medium was given in the sham operation and model groups. At 4 weeks after treatment, Basso, Beattie and Bresnahan score and grid-climbing test were conducted to evaluate the motor ability of rats; hematoxylin-eosin staining was used to detect the pathological progression of spinal cord injury; and qRT-PCR and western blot were used to detect the expression of BAX, BCL-2, Caspase 3 and ciliary neurotrophic factor in spinal cord tissues. 
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: Olfactory ensheathing cells modified with ciliary neurotrophic factor gene could significantly alleviate cell injury and spinal cord injury (P < 0.001), increase the expression of ciliary neurotrophic factor (P < 0.01) and decrease the expression of apoptosis-related molecules BAX, BCL-2 and Caspase 3 (P < 0.01). To conclude, transplantation of olfactory ensheathing cells modified by ciliary ganglion neurotrophic factor gene can improve the motor function after spinal cord injury, which may be related to the down-regulation of BAX, BCL-2 and Caspase-3 expression and reduction in the apoptosis of spinal cord neurons.
