Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are heterogeneous likely consisting of subpopulations with various therapeutic potentials. Here we attempted to acquire a subset of MSCs with enhanced effect in wound healing. We found that human placental MSCs expressing platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) receptor (PDGFR)-β exhibited greater proliferation rates and generated more colony-forming unit-fibroblast (CFU-F), compared to PDGFR-β? MSCs. Notably, PDGFR-β+ MSCs expressed higher levels of pro-angiogenic factors such as Ang1, Ang2, VEGF, bFGF and PDGF. When 106 GFP-expressing MSCs were topically applied into excisional wounds in mice, PDGFR-β+ MSCs actively incorporated into the wound tissue, resulting in enhanced engraftment (3.92 ± 0.31 × 105 remained in wound by 7 days) and accelerated wound closure; meanwhile, PDGFR-β? MSCs tended to remain on the top of the wound bed with significantly fewer cells (2.46 ± 0.26 × 105) engrafted into the wound, suggesting enhanced chemotactic migration and engraftment of PDGFR-β+ MSCs into the wound. Real-Time PCR and immunostain analyses revealed that the expression of PDGF-B was upregulated after wounding; transwell migration assay showed that PDGFR-β+ MSCs migrated eightfold more than PDGFR-β? MSCs toward PDGF-BB. Intriguingly, PDGFR-β+ MSC-treated wounds showed significantly enhanced angiogenesis compared to PDGFR-β? MSC- or vehicle-treated wounds. Thus, our results indicate that PDGFR-β identifies a subset of MSCs with enhanced chemotactic migration to wound injury and effect in promoting angiogenesis and wound healing, implying a greater therapeutic potential for certain diseases. 相似文献

Neuropathic pain resulting from damage or dysfunction of the nervous system is a highly debilitating chronic pain state and is often resistant to currently available treatments. It has become clear that neuroinflammation, mainly mediated by proinflammatory cytokines and chemokines, plays an important role in the establishment and maintenance of neuropathic pain. Chemokines were originally identified as regulators of peripheral immune cell trafficking and were also expressed in neurons and glial cells in the central nervous system. In recent years, accumulating studies have revealed the expression, distribution and function of chemokines in the spinal cord under chronic pain conditions. In this review, we provide evidence showing that several chemokines are upregulated after peripheral nerve injury and contribute to the pathogenesis of neuropathic pain via different forms of neuron–glia interaction in the spinal cord. First, chemokine CX3CL1 is expressed in primary afferents and spinal neurons and induces microglial activation via its microglial receptor CX3CR1 (neuron-to-microglia signaling). Second, CCL2 and CXCL1 are expressed in spinal astrocytes and act on CCR2 and CXCR2 in spinal neurons to increase excitatory synaptic transmission (astrocyte-to-neuron signaling). Third, we recently identified that CXCL13 is highly upregulated in spinal neurons after spinal nerve ligation and induces spinal astrocyte activation via receptor CXCR5 (neuron-to-astrocyte signaling). Strategies that target chemokine-mediated neuron-glia interactions may lead to novel therapies for the treatment of neuropathic pain. 相似文献

Cellular pro-angiogenic therapies may be applicable for the treatment of peripheral vascular diseases. Interactions between mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) and endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs) may provide such a treatment option. With the exception of some studies in man, experiments have only been performed in immunodeficient mice and rats. We studied an immunocompetent syngeneic mouse model. We isolated MSCs from bone marrow and EPCs from the lung of adult C57/Bl.6 mice and co-injected them in Matrigel subcutaneously in adult C57/Bl.6 mice. We demonstrate development of both blood vessels and lymphatics. Grafted EPCs integrated into the lining of the two vessel types, whereas MSCs usually did not incorporate into the vessel wall. Injections of each separate cell type did not, or hardly, reveal de novo angiogenesis. The release of VEGF-A by MSCs has been shown before, but its inhibitors, e.g., soluble VEGF receptors, have not been studied. We performed qualitative and quantitative studies of the proteins released by EPCs, MSCs, and cocultures of the cells. Despite the secretion of VEGF inhibitors (sVEGFR-1, sVEGFR-2) by EPCs, VEGF-A was secreted by MSCs at bioavailable amounts (350 pg/ml). We confirm the secretion of PlGF, FGF-1, MCP-1, and PDGFs by EPCs/MSCs and suggest functions for VEGF-B, amphiregulin, fractalkine, CXCL10, and CXCL16 during MSC-induced hem- and lymphangiogenesis. We assume that lymphangiogenesis is induced indirectly by growth factors from immigrating leukocytes, which we found in close association with the lymphatic networks. Inflammatory responses to the cellular markers GFP and cell-tracker red (CMPTX) used for tracing of EPCs or MSCs were not observed. Our studies demonstrate the feasibility of pro-angiogenic/lymphangiogenic therapies in immunocompetent animals and indicate new MSC/EPC-derived angiogenic factors. 相似文献

Parkinson’s disease (PD) is a neurodegenerative disorder characterized by a progressive loss of dopamine (DA) neurons through apoptotic, inflammatory and oxidative stress mechanisms. The octadecaneuropeptide (ODN) is a diazepam-binding inhibitor (DBI)-derived peptide, expressed by astrocytes, which protects neurons against oxidative cell damages and apoptosis in an in vitro model of PD. The present study reveals that a single intracerebroventricular injection of 10 ng ODN 1 h after the last administration of 1-methyl-4-phenyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine (MPTP) prevented the degeneration of DA neurons induced by the toxin in the substantia nigra pars compacta of mice, 7 days after treatment. ODN-mediated neuroprotection was associated with a reduction of the number of glial fibrillary acidic protein-positive reactive astrocytes and a strong inhibition of the expression of pro-inflammatory genes such as interleukins 1β and 6, and tumor necrosis factor-α. Moreover, ODN blocked the inhibition of the anti-apoptotic gene Bcl-2, and the stimulation of the pro-apoptotic genes Bax and caspase-3, induced by MPTP in the substantia nigra pars compacta. ODN also decreased or even in some cases abolished MPTP-induced oxidative damages, overproduction of reactive oxygen species and accumulation of lipid oxidation products in DA neurons. Furthermore, DBI knockout mice appeared to be more vulnerable than wild-type animals to MPTP neurotoxicity. Taken together, these results show that the gliopeptide ODN exerts a potent neuroprotective effect against MPTP-induced degeneration of nigrostriatal DA neurons in mice, through mechanisms involving downregulation of neuroinflammatory, oxidative and apoptotic processes. ODN may, thus, reduce neuronal damages in PD and other cerebral injuries involving oxidative neurodegeneration. 相似文献

Several genetically engineered models exist that mimic aspects of the pathological and cognitive hallmarks of Alzheimer’s disease (AD). Here we report on a novel mouse model generated by targeted knock-in of transgenes containing mutated human amyloid precursor protein (APP) and microtubule-associated protein tau genes, inserted into the HPRT locus and controlled by the CaMKIIα regulatory element. These mice were crossed with an asymptomatic presenilin1A246E overexpressing line to generate PLB1Triple mice. Gene expression analysis and in situ hybridization confirmed stable, forebrain-specific, and gene-dose-dependent transgene expression. Brain tissue harvested from homozygous, heterozygous, and wild-type cohorts aged between 3 and 24 months was analyzed immunohistochemically and electrophysiologically. Homozygous PLB1Triple offspring presented with mostly intracellular cortical and hippocampal human APP/amyloid, first detected reliably at 6 months. Human tau was already uncovered at 3 months (phospho-tau at 6 months) and labeling intensifying progressively with age. Gene-dose dependence was confirmed in age-matched heterozygous females that accumulated less tau and amyloid protein. General excitability of hippocampal neurones was not altered in slices from PLB1Triple mice up to 12 months, but 2-year-old homozygous PLB1Triple mice had smaller synaptically evoked postsynaptic potentials compared with wild types. Synaptic plasticity (paired-pulse depression/facilitation and long-term potentiation) of synaptic CA1 pyramidal cell responses was deficient from 6 months of age. Long-term depression was not affected at any age or in any genotype. Therefore, despite comparatively subtle gene expression and protein build-up, PLB1Triple mice develop age-dependent progressive phenotypes, suggesting that aggressive protein accumulation is not necessary to reconstruct endophenotypes of AD. 相似文献

Insights into autotransplantation: the unexpected discovery of specific induction systems in bone marrow stromal cells 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Dezawa M 《Cellular and molecular life sciences : CMLS》2006,63(23):2764-2772
Many kinds of cells, including embryonic stem cells and tissue stem cells, have been considered candidates for transplantation
therapy for neuro- and muscle-degenerative diseases. Bone marrow stromal cells (MSCs) also have great potential as therapeutic
agents since they are easily isolated and can be expanded from patients without serious ethical or technical problems. Recently,
new methods for the highly efficient and specific induction of functional neurons and skeletal muscle cells have been developed
for MSCs. These induced cells were transplanted into animal models of stroke, Parkinson’s disease and muscle degeneration,
resulting in the successful integration of transplanted cells and improvement in the behavior of the transplanted animals.
Here I describe the discovery of these induction systems and focus on the potential use of MSC-derived cells for ‘auto-cell
transplantation therapy’ in neuro- and muscle-degenerative diseases.

Endocannabinoids and β-amyloid-induced neurotoxicity in vivo: effect of pharmacological elevation of endocannabinoid levels 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
van der Stelt M Mazzola C Esposito G Matias I Petrosino S De Filippis D Micale V Steardo L Drago F Iuvone T Di Marzo V 《Cellular and molecular life sciences : CMLS》2006,63(12):1410-1424
We investigated the involvement of endocannabinoids in the control of neuronal damage and memory retention loss in rodents
treated with the β-amyloid peptide (1–42) (BAP). Twelve days after stereotaxic injection of BAP into the rat cortex, and concomitant
with the appearance in the hippocampus of markers of neuronal damage, 2-arachidonoyl glycerol, but not anandamide, levels
were enhanced in the hippocampus. VDM-11 (5 mg/kg, i.p.), an inhibitor of endocannabinoid cellular reuptake, significantly
enhanced rat hippocampal and mouse brain endocannabinoid levels when administered sub-chronically starting either 3 or 7 days
after BAP injection and until the 12–14th day. VDM-11 concomitantly reversed hippocampal damage in rats, and loss of memory
retention in the passive avoidance test in mice, but only when administered from the 3rd day after BAP injection. We suggest
that early, as opposed to late, pharmacological enhancement of brain endocannabinoid levels might protect against β-amyloid
neurotoxicity and its consequences.

Human cerebral artery strips relaxed in response to non-adrenergic, non-cholinergic vasodilator nerve stimulation by electrical pulses or nicotine. The relaxation response was abolished by treatment with NG-nitro-L-arginine, a nitric oxide synthase inhibitor; the inhibitory effect was reversed by L-, but not D-, arginine. Nitric oxide-induced relaxation was unaffected. These findings support the hypothesis that nitric oxide plays a crucial role, possibly as neurotransmitter, in transmitting information from vasodilator nerve to smooth muscle in human cerebral arteries. 相似文献

We evaluated the energy metabolism of human mesenchymal stem cells (MSC) isolated from umbilical cord (UC) of preterm (< 37 weeks of gestational age) and term (≥ 37 weeks of gestational age) newborns, using MSC from adult bone marrow as control. A metabolic switch has been observed around the 34th week of gestational age from a prevalently anaerobic glycolysis to the oxidative phosphorylation. This metabolic change is associated with the organization of mitochondria reticulum: preterm MSCs presented a scarcely organized mitochondrial reticulum and low expression of proteins involved in the mitochondrial fission/fusion, compared to term MSCs. These changes seem governed by the expression of CLUH, a cytosolic messenger RNA-binding protein involved in the mitochondria biogenesis and distribution inside the cell; in fact, CLUH silencing in term MSC determined a metabolic fingerprint similar to that of preterm MSC. Our study discloses novel information on the production of energy and mitochondrial organization and function, during the passage from fetal to adult life, providing useful information for the management of preterm birth. 相似文献

Cell therapy is reaching the stage of phase I clinical trials for post-traumatic, post-ischemic, or neurodegenerative disorders,
and the selection of the appropriate cell source is essential. In order to assess the capacity of different human neural stem
cell lines (hNSC) to contribute to neural tissue regeneration and to reduce the local inflammation after an acute injury,
we transplanted GMP-grade non-immortalized hNSCs and v-myc (v-IhNSC), c-myc T58A (T-IhNSC) immortalized cells into the corpus
callosum of adult rats after 5 days from focal demyelination induced by lysophosphatidylcholine. At 15 days from transplantation,
hNSC and T-IhNSC migrated to the lesioned area where they promoted endogenous remyelination and differentiated into mature
oligodendrocytes, while the all three cell lines were able to integrate in the SVZ. Moreover, where demyelination was accompanied
by an inflammatory reaction, a significant reduction of microglial cells’ activation was observed. This effect correlated
with a differential migratory pattern of transplanted hNSC and IhNSC, significantly enhanced in the former, thus suggesting
a specific NSC-mediated immunomodulatory effect on the local inflammation. We provide evidence that, in the subacute phase
of a demyelination injury, different human immortalized and non-immortalized NSC lines, all sharing homing to the stem niche,
display a differential pathotropism, both through cell-autonomous and non-cell autonomous effects. Overall, these findings
promote IhNSC as an inexhaustible cell source for large-scale preclinical studies and non-immortalized GMP grade hNSC lines
as an efficacious, safe, and reliable therapeutic tool for future clinical applications. 相似文献

We recently generated an advanced mouse model of Alzheimer’s disease (AD) by targeted knock-in of single-copy mutated human amyloid precursor-protein (APP) and tau genes, crossed with a non-symptomatic presenilin (PS1A246E) over-expressing mouse line. These PLB1Triple mice presented with age-dependent and AD-relevant phenotypes. Homozygous PLB1Triple mice aged 4–12 months were assessed here in a battery of spatial learning tasks: Exp.1 radial-arm water maze (spatial reference and working memory) Exp.2 open-field water maze (spatial reference memory); Exp.3 home cage observation system with spatial learning (IntelliCage); Exp.4 spontaneous object recognition (SOR; novel object and spatial object shift). A separate test with high-expression transgenic APP mice matching the design of experiment 1 was also performed. Spatial deficits in PLB1Triple mice were confirmed at 12, but not 4 months in both water maze tasks. PSAPP mice, by contrast, presented with severe yet non-progressive spatial learning deficits already at 4 months. During tests of spatial learning in SOR and IntelliCage, PLB1Triple mice neither acquired the location of the water-rewarded corner, nor recognize novel or spatially shifted objects at 4 months, indicating these protocols to be more sensitive than the water maze. Collectively and in line with AD symptomatology, PLB1Triple mice present with a graded and progressive age-dependent loss of spatial memory that can be revealed by the use of a battery of tasks. With the emergence of subtle deficits progressively increasing in severity, PLB1Triple mice may offer a more patho-physiologically relevant model of dementia than aggressive expression models. 相似文献

Neuroma formation and abnormal afferent nerve discharges after partial beak amputation (beak trimming) in poultry 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Following partial amputation of the beak recordings were taken of the electrical activity from single afferent fibers of the intramandibular nerve. A total of 192 single afferent fiber units were isolated of which 47 were classified as nociceptors, with an abnormal pattern of discharge, and 89 were abnormal spontaneously active units. Following amputation neuromas were developing by 15 days after surgery and they were well formed by 20 to 30 days. The presence of neuromas together with abnormal spontaneous activity originating from them raise serious welfare questions concerning beak trimming. 相似文献

Summary The carotid blood distribution has been evaluated using radioactive microspheres in 13 regions of the head and in 10 cerebral structures of rats, and the intracerebral distribution of blood has been studied comparatively after injection of microspheres into the left cardiac ventricle or into the internal carotid artery. The principal results indicate that the cerebral tissue is not supplied by the external carotid blood, whereas about 30% of the internal carotid blood goes to the brain, and that the pontomedullary region receives its blood mainly from the vertebral artery.

Iron loads between 0.20 microgram and 26 microgram, added to 5 mu Ci 59Fe, were followed for up to 150 days in mice. Relative organ uptake increased as a function of iron load in liver and kidneys while it decreased in bone marrow and blood. Several weeks after injection, all load-related differences disappeared. 相似文献

Cardiomyocytes grow during heart maturation or disease-related cardiac remodeling. We present evidence that the intercalated disc (ID) is integral to both longitudinal and lateral growth: increases in width are accommodated by lateral extension of the plicate tread regions and increases in length by sarcomere insertion within the ID. At the margin between myofibril and the folded membrane of the ID lies a transitional junction through which the thin filaments from the last sarcomere run to the ID membrane and it has been suggested that this junction acts as a proto Z-disc for sarcomere addition. In support of this hypothesis, we have investigated the ultrastructure of the ID in mouse hearts from control and dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) models, the MLP-null and a cardiac-specific β-catenin mutant, cΔex3, as well as in human left ventricle from normal and DCM samples. We find that the ID amplitude can vary tenfold from 0.2 μm up to a maximum of ~2 μm allowing gradual expansion during heart growth. At the greatest amplitude, equivalent to a sarcomere length, A-bands and thick filaments are found within the ID membrane loops together with a Z-disc, which develops at the transitional junction position. Here, also, the tops of the membrane folds, which are rich in αII spectrin, become enlarged and associated with junctional sarcoplasmic reticulum. Systematically larger ID amplitudes are found in DCM samples. Other morphological differences between mouse DCM and normal hearts suggest that sarcomere inclusion is compromised in the diseased hearts. 相似文献

Endolysosomal cysteine cathepsins functionally cooperate. Cathepsin B (Ctsb) and L (Ctsl) double-knockout mice die 4 weeks after birth accompanied by (autophago-) lysosomal accumulations within neurons. Such accumulations are also observed in mouse embryonic fibroblasts (MEFs) deficient for Ctsb and Ctsl. Previous studies showed a strong impact of Ctsl on the MEF secretome. Here we show that Ctsb alone has only a mild influence on extracellular proteome composition. Protease cleavage sites dependent on Ctsb were identified by terminal amine isotopic labeling of substrates (TAILS), revealing a prominent yet mostly indirect impact on the extracellular proteolytic cleavages. To investigate the cooperation of Ctsb and Ctsl, we performed a quantitative secretome comparison of wild-type MEFs and Ctsb ?/? Ctsl ?/? MEFs. Deletion of both cathepsins led to drastic alterations in secretome composition, highlighting cooperative functionality. While many protein levels were decreased, immunodetection corroborated increased levels of matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)-2. Re-expression of Ctsl rescues MMP-2 abundance. Ctsl and to a much lesser extent Ctsb are able to degrade MMP-2 at acidic and neutral pH. Addition of active MMP-2 to the MEF secretome degrades proteins whose levels were also decreased by Ctsb and Ctsl double deficiency. These results suggest a degradative Ctsl—MMP-2 axis, resulting in increased MMP-2 levels upon cathepsin deficiency with subsequent degradation of secreted proteins such as collagen α-1 (I). 相似文献
