To explore the mechanism of diabetic erectile dysfunction, we studied the distribution of neurotrophins in the penises of diabetic rats, including nerve growth factor (NGF), brain derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), neurotrophin-3 (NT-3), and neurotrophin-4 (NT-4). Male Sprague-Dawley rats were injected with 65 mg/kg streptozotocin to induce diabetes mellitus (DM). The control rats were raised as age-matched control. Eight weeks later, the intercavernous pressure (ICP) of the rats was measured after electrostimulation and before sacrifice. Each peeled penis was divided into 2 parts, one for immunohistochemistry and the other for Western blot analysis. The ICP of the DM group rats was significantly decreased as compared to the vehicle control rats. There were significantly more NGF-positive neurons in the penises of the diabetic rats than in those of the control rats, while the opposite results were observed for BDNF-positive neurons. In the Western blot analysis, the proteins of NGF, NT-3, and NT-4 were all increased, while that of BDNF was decreased in diabetic rats. This is the first study revealing the expression of NT-4 protein in cavernous tissue. The abnormal level of these 4 neurotrophins in cavernous tissue may be one of the factors of the pathogenesis of diabetic ED. The increase of neurotrophins may reflect the degree of cavernous tissue denervation and may represent a compensatory mechanism. The lesion of the retrograde axonal transport of the nerves caused by hyperglycemia may be related to this phenomenon.  相似文献

Erectile dysfunction occurs frequently in humans with diabetes mellitus; the molecular basis of this phenomenon is not known. We investigated the effects of diabetes on penile erection, nitric oxide synthase and growth factors expression in an animal model. Forty male rats were divided into two groups: the experimental group (n = 30) received intraperitoneal injection of Streptozotocin (STZ) dissolved in citrate buffer to induce diabetes; ten age-matched control rats received injection of citrate buffer vehicle only. Before euthanization at eight weeks, erectile function was assessed by electrostimulation of the cavernous nerves. NADPH diaphorase staining was used to identify NOS and immunostaining technique was used to identify nNOS in the penile nerve fibers. RT-PCR was used to identify mRNA expression of nNOS, eNOS, iNOS, ER-beta, ER-alpha, NGF, IGF-I, TGF-beta 1, and AR. Western blot was used to identify nNOS, IGF-I, NGF, and TFG-beta protein expressions. In the diabetic group, there was: (1) a significant decrease in NOS containing nerve fibers in the dorsal and intracavernosal nerves; (2) a significant lower maximal intracavernosal pressure. RT-PCR showed down-regulation of nNOS (large form), iNOS and ER-beta mRNA expression, Immunoblot showed down-regulation of nNOS protein expression and nNOS immunostaining showed less positive staining in the dorsal and intracavernous nerves in the diabetic group. These molecular changes may provide the basis for further studies to explore the association between diabetes and impotence.  相似文献

It has been demonstrated that intracavernous injection of bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (BM-MSCs) had beneficial effects on improving erectile function in type-1 diabetic rats. This study was designed to investigate the neurotrophic effect of BM-MSCs for type-1 diabetic rats. Streptozocin-induced type-1 diabetic rats were randomly divided into three groups: diabetic group, BM-MSCs-treated group and BM-MSCs-conditioned medium-treated group. At the 3d, 1 and 2w time points after BM-MSCs injection, three randomly selected rats in MSCs group were sacrificed and penile samples were harvested to detect BM-MSCs in penile tissue. Four weeks after intracavernous injection of BM-MSCs or BM-MSCs-conditioned medium, intracavernous pressure (ICP) was assessed to evaluate the erectile function. Immunohistochemistry was used to track labelled BM-MSCs in penile tissue and to detect neuronal nitric oxide synthase (nNOS) and neurofilament (NF) positive fibres in penile dorsal nerve. Enzyme lined immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was used to measure the concentrations of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), nerve growth factor (NGF) and brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) in BM-MSCs-conditioned medium. BM- MSCs secreted detectable levels of VEGF, BDNF and NGF. Intracavernous injection of BM-MSCs improved erectile function in diabetic rats. The functional improvement was accompanied by promoted nNOS and NF positive nerve fibres within penile dorsal nerve in type-1 diabetic rats. Histological data revealed a time-dependent decrease in the number of BM-MSCs in the corpus cavernosum following injection. Furthermore, the beneficial effect of BM-MSCs was partially repeated by BM-MSCs-conditioned medium. Intracavernous injection of BM-MSCs is effective in improving nerve regeneration in diabetic rats. Paracrine effects of BM-MSCs are probably involved in the improvement.  相似文献

Oxytocin receptor (OTR) expressed in the rat penis and mediated the contractility of the corpus cavernosum smooth muscle both in vitro and in vivo, and OTR could maintain penile detumescence; however, the expression of OTR in diabetic rat penis remains unknown. In the present study, we investigated the expression of OTR in diabetic rat penis. The experimental rats were randomly divided into control group and STZ-diabetic rats group. The expressions of mRNA and protein were examined by real-time quantitative PCR, Western blotting and immunohistochemistry respectively. Erectile function was evaluated by measuring intracavernous pressure following electrostimulation of the cavernous nerves. mRNA and protein expression of OTR significantly increased in diabetic rats group compared with the control group. Erectile function of diabetic rats group significantly decreased compared with the control group. Our data showed that the expression of OTR significantly increased in diabetic rats group and OTR may involve in the development of diabetic erectile dysfunction.  相似文献

AIM: To study the effect of diabetes mellitus and insulin treatment on rat penile nitric oxide synthase content. METHODS: Male Wistar rats were divided at random into two groups: the Control (n = 8) and the Diabetic (n = 17). Diabetes mellitus was induced by intraperitoneal injection of streptozotocin. The diabetic animals were then randomly divided into two subgroups: diabetic rats without insulin treatment (n = 7) and diabetic rats with insulin treatment (n = 10). The neuronal nitric oxide synthase (nNOS) in the penile corpus cavernosum were assayed by immumohistochemical staining with specific antibody to nNOS and the nNOS-positive nerve fibers were counted semiquantitatively under a high power microscope. RESULTS: The nNOS- positive nerve fibres in diabetic rats with treatment was higher than that in diabetic rats without treatment (P < 0.05) and lower than that in the controls (P < 0. 01). The nNOS-positive nerve fibres in diabetic rat without treatment were also lower than that in the controls (P < 0. 01). CONCLUSION: In streptozotocin-induced diabetic rats, the nNOS content in the penile corpus cavernosum was significantly decreased. Insulin treatment at the dose level employed partially restores the penile nNOS content in these rats.  相似文献

PURPOSE: We determined whether adenoviral gene transfer of endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) to the penis of streptozotocin induced diabetic rats could improve the impaired erectile response. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Two experimental groups of animals were transfected with adenoviruses, including streptozotocin (Sigma Chemical Company, St. Louis, Missouri) diabetic rats with AdCMVbetagal and streptozotocin diabetic rats with AdCMVeNOS. At 1 to 2 days after transfection these study animals underwent cavernous nerve stimulation to assess erectile function and their responses were compared with those of age matched control rats. In control and transfected streptozotocin diabetic rats eNOS and neuronal NOS (nNOS) were examined by Western blot analysis. Constitutive and inducible NOS activities were evaluated in the presence and absence of calcium by L-arginine to L-citrulline conversion and nitrate plus nitrite levels were measured. In control and streptozotocin diabetic penes beta-galactosidase activity and localization were determined. RESULTS: After transfection with AdCMVbetagal beta-galactosidase was localized to the endothelium and smooth muscle cells of the streptozotocin diabetic rat penis. Streptozotocin diabetic rats had a significant decrease in erectile function, as determined by peak and total intracavernous pressure (area under the curve) after cavernous nerve stimulation compared with control rats. Streptozotocin diabetic rats transfected with AdCMVeNOS had peak intracavernous pressure and area under the curve similar to those in control animals. This change in erectile function was a result of eNOS over expression with an increase in eNOS protein expression and constitutive NOS activity as well as an increase in nitric oxide biosynthesis, as reflected by an increase in cavernous nitrate plus nitrite formation. There was no change in nNOS protein expression or calcium independent conversion of NOS (inducible NOS activity). CONCLUSIONS: Adenoviral gene transfer of eNOS significantly increased peak and total intracavernous pressure to cavernous nerve stimulation in streptozotocin diabetic rats to a value similar to the response observed in control rats. Our results suggest that eNOS contributes significantly to the physiology of penile erection. These data demonstrate that in vivo adenoviral gene transfer of eNOS can physiologically improve erectile function in the streptozotocin diabetic rat.  相似文献
