摘要:

文题释义:
黄韧带:由左右两部分组成,韧带上下分别附着于上位椎板的前下方,下位椎板的上缘,连接椎弓板,参与围成椎管,控制脊柱过度前屈,维持脊柱稳定。黄韧带肥厚可造成椎管管腔减小及椎间孔狭窄,硬膜囊和脊神经根的压迫,从而产生临床症状。
免疫组织化学技术:是用标记的特异性抗体(或抗原)对组织内的抗原(或抗体)的分布进行定位、定性、定量检测,经过组织化学呈色反应在组织原位显示抗原(或抗体),如各种蛋白质、多肽、磷脂和多糖等成分的一门技术。

背景:腰椎管狭窄症是造成老年人步态紊乱和腰腿痛的关键原因之一,黄韧带肥厚是导致腰椎管狭窄症的主要病理机制,目前关于黄韧带的影像学及病理研究较多,关于细胞凋亡的研究较少。                                                  

目的:检测肥厚黄韧带组织中的细胞凋亡率及凋亡因子caspase-3、fas、p53的表达,为深入了解黄韧带退变的机制提供实验依据。         

方法:实验组50个经MRI及术后测量证实肥厚黄韧带标本(L2-S1)来自50例腰椎管狭窄症行后路减压手术自愿捐赠的患者,男22例,女28例,年龄32-74岁,平均54.46岁;对照组30个经MRI及术后测量证实非肥厚黄韧带标本(L2-S1)来自30例腰椎间盘突出症行手术及腰椎爆裂骨折行手术患者,男19例,女11例,年龄19-67岁,平均47.27岁。采用TUNEL染色法检测黄韧带中的凋亡细胞率,用SP免疫组织化学法检测caspase-3、fas、p53的表达。研究通过了新疆医科大学第六附属医院伦理委员会批准,伦理编号为LFYLLSJ2016007。                                          

结果与结论:①TUNEL染色示实验组的平均凋亡细胞率高于对照组[(37.80±3.04)%,(13.18±1.34)%,t=41.83,P < 0.001];②SP免疫组织化学染色示实验组caspase-3、fas、p53阳性表达率均为100%,对照组caspase-3、fas、p53阳性表达率为13.3%,16.7%,10%,两组比较差异均有统计学意义(P < 0.001)。结果表明,腰椎肥厚黄韧带组织中细胞凋亡增加,肥厚黄韧带中细胞凋亡与caspase-3、fas、p53的表达上调具有一定的相关性。

Abstract:

BACKGROUND: Lumbar spinal stenosis is one of the key causes of gait disorder and low back pain in the older adults. Hypertrophy of the ligamentum flavum is the main pathological mechanism leading to lumbar spinal stenosis. Although there are numerous imaging and pathological studies on the ligamentum flavum, little is reported on cell apoptosis.

OBJECTIVE: To detect the apoptotic rate and the expression of caspase-3, fas and p53 in the hypertrophic ligamentum flavum, providing experimental evidence for understanding the mechanism underlying degeneration of the ligamentum flavum.

METHODS: In experimental group, 50 hypertrophic ligamentum flavum specimens (L2-S1) confirmed by MRI and postoperative measurement were obtained from 50 patients with lumbar spinal stenosis who underwent posterior decompression surgery. There were 22 males and 28 females, aged from 32 to 74 years old, with an average of 54.46 years old. In control group, 30 non-hypertrophic ligamentum flavum specimens (L2-S1) confirmed by MRI and postoperative measurement were obtained from 30 patients with lumbar disc herniation undergoing surgery and lumbar burst fractures. There were 19 males and 11 females, aged 19-67 years, with an average of 47.27 years old. The apoptotic rate in the ligamentum flavum was detected by TUNEL staining, and the expression of caspase-3, fas and p53 was detected by SP immunohistochemistry. The study protocol was approved by the Ethics Committee of the Sixth Affiliated Hospital of Xinjiang Medical University, with approval No. LFYLLSJ2016007.

RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: TUNEL results showed that the average apoptotic rate of the experimental group was (37.80±3.04)%, which was significantly higher than that of the control group [(13.18±1.34)%; t=41.83, P < 0.001]. The immunohistochemical staining of SP revealed that the positive expression percentages of caspase-3, fas and p53 in the ligamentum flavum were all 100% in the experimental group, while the positive percentages were 13.3%, 16.7%, and 10% in the control group, respectively. There was a significant difference between the two groups (P < 0.001). These findings indicate that cell apoptosis in the hypertrophic ligamentum flavum is increased and has a certain correlation with the up-regulation of caspase-3, fas and p53.
