STUDY DESIGN: In vivo studies using a rabbit model to determine the biologic effects of direct, adenovirus-mediated transfer of a therapeutic gene to the intervertebral disc. OBJECTIVES: 1) To deliver an exogenous therapeutic gene to rabbit lumbar intervertebral discs in vivo, 2) to quantify the resulting amount of gene expression, and 3) to determine the effect on the biologic activity of the discs. SUMMARY OF BACKGROUND DATA: Although growth factors such as transforming growth factor beta 1 appear to have promising therapeutic properties, there currently is no practical method for sustained delivery of exogenous growth factors to the disc for the management of certain chronic types of disease (e.g., disc degeneration). A possible solution is to modify the disc cells genetically through gene transfer such that the cells manufacture the desired growth factors endogenously on a continuous basis. METHODS: Saline, with or without virus, was injected directly into lumbar discs of 22 skeletally mature female New Zealand white rabbits. Group 1 (n = 11) received the adenovirus construct Ad/CMV-hTGF beta 1 containing the therapeutic human transforming growth factor beta 1-encoding gene. Group 2 (n = 6) received adenovirus containing the luciferase marker gene. Group 3 (n = 5) received saline only. The rabbits were killed 1 week after injection. Immunohistochemical staining for human transforming growth factor beta 1 was performed on the disc tissues of one rabbit from Group 1. Nucleus pulposus tissues from the remaining rabbits were cultured in serumless medium. Bioassays were performed to determine human transforming growth factor beta 1 production and proteoglycan synthesis. RESULTS: Discs injected with Ad/CMV-hTGF beta 1 exhibited extensive and intense positive immunostaining for transforming growth factor beta 1. The nucleus pulposus tissues from the discs injected with Ad/CMV-hTGF beta 1 exhibited a 30-fold increase in active transforming growth factor beta 1 production, and a 5-fold increase in total (active + latent) transforming growth factor beta 1 production over that from intact control discs (P < 0.05). Furthermore, these tissues exhibited a 100% increase in proteoglycan synthesis compared with intact control tissue, which was statistically significant (P < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS: The results of this study suggest that the intervertebral disc is an appropriate site for adenovirus-mediated transfer of exogenous genes and subsequent production of therapeutic growth factors. Gene therapy therefore may have useful applications for study of the basic science of the intervertebral disc and for clinical management of degenerative disc disease. 相似文献

STUDY DESIGN: Coil springs were stretched and attached to produce a compressive force across the lumbar intervertebral discs of dogs for up to 53 weeks. OBJECTIVE: To test the hypothesis that compressive forces applied to the intervertebral disc for a long period of time cause disc degeneration in vivo in a dog model. SUMMARY OF BACKGROUND DATA: It is a commonly held belief that high forces applied to the intervertebral disc, and to joints in general, play a role in causing degeneration. METHODS: Coil springs were stretched and attached to produce a compressive force across the lumbar intervertebral discs (L3/L4) of 12 dogs. After up to a year, the dogs were killed, and their lumbar spines were removed and radiographed. The L3/L4 disc and the controls (T13/L1 and L4/L5) were excised and examined for visible signs of degeneration. The discs then were assessed using immunohistochemical analysis and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Disc chondrocytes also were assayed for apoptosis. RESULTS: No obvious signs of degeneration in the discs (L3/L4) that had been under compression for up to a year could be observed. There was no disc bulging, anular fissures, or disc space narrowing. Some changes were observed at the microscopic level, although no thickening of the endplate was apparent. The enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay analysis provided significant data for all three regions of the disc (nucleus, inner anulus, and outer anulus). When comparing the compressed disc (L3/L4) with either of the control discs (T13/L1 and L4/L5), in the compressed disc: 1) the nucleus contained less proteoglycan and more collagen I and II; 2) the inner anulus contained less proteoglycan and collagen I; and 3) the outer anulus contained more proteoglycan and less collagen I. The collagen II differences for the inner and outer anulus were not significant. CONCLUSION: Compression applied to the lumbar intervertebral discs of dogs for up to a year does not produce degeneration in any visible form. It does produce microscopic changes and numerical changes, however, in the amounts of proteoglycan and collagen in the nucleus, inner anulus, and outer anulus. The present results add no credence to the commonly held belief that high compressive forces play a causative role in disc degeneration. 相似文献

BACKGROUND CONTEXTBack and neck pain secondary to disc degeneration is a major public health burden. There is a need for therapeutic treatments to restore intervertebral disc (IVD) composition and function.PURPOSETo quantify ALK3, BMP-2, pSMAD1/5/8 and MMP-13 expression in IVD specimens collected from patients undergoing surgery for disc degeneration, to correlate ALK3, BMP-2, pSMAD1/5/8 and MMP-13 expression in IVD specimens to the 5-level Pfirrmann MRI grading system, and to compare ALK3, BMP-2, pSMAD1/5/8 and MMP-13 expression between cervical and lumbar degenerative disc specimens.STUDY DESIGNAn immunohistochemical study assessing ALK3, BMP-2, pSMAD1/5/8, and MMP-13 expression levels in human control and degenerative IVD specimens.METHODSHuman IVD specimens were collected from surgical patients who underwent discectomy and interbody fusion at our institution between 1/2015 and 8/2017. Each patient underwent MRI prior to surgery. The degree of disc degeneration was measured according to the 5-level Pfirrmann MRI grading system. Patients were categorized into either the 1) control group (Pfirrmann grades I-II) or 2) degenerative group (Pfirrmann grades III-V). Histology slides of the collected IVD specimens were prepared and immunohistochemical staining was performed to assess ALK3, BMP-2, pSMAD1/5/8, and MMP-13 expression levels in the control and degenerative specimens. Expression levels were also correlated to the Pfirrmann criteria. Lastly, the degenerative specimens were stratified according to their vertebral level and expression levels between the degenerative lumbar and cervical discs were compared.RESULTSFifty-two patients were enrolled; however, 2 control and 2 degenerative patients were excluded due to incomplete data sets. Of the remaining 48 patients, there were 12 control and 36 degenerative specimens. Degenerative specimens had increased expression levels of BMP-2 (p=.0006) and pSMAD1/5/8 (p<.0001). Pfirrmann grade 3 (p=.0365) and grade 4 (p=.0008) discs had significantly higher BMP-2 expression as compared to grade 2 discs. Pfirrmann grade 4 discs had higher pSMAD1/5/8 expression as compared to grade 2 discs (p<.0001). There were no differences in ALK3 or MMP-13 expression between the control and degenerative discs (p>.05). Stratifying the degenerative specimens according to their vertebral level showed no significant differences in expression levels between the lumbar and cervical discs (p>.05).CONCLUSIONSBMP-2 and pSMAD1/5/8 signaling activity was significantly upregulated in the human degenerative specimens, while ALK3 and MMP-13 expression were not significantly changed. The expression levels of BMP-2 and pSMAD1/5/8 correlate positively with the degree of disc degeneration measured according to the Pfirrmann MRI grading system.CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCEBMP-SMAD signaling represents a promising therapeutic target to restore IVD composition and function in the setting of disc degeneration. 相似文献

目的通过终板下注射无水乙醇阻碍椎体-终板营养,建立一种新型兔腰椎椎间盘退行性变模型,并观察终板退行性变过程中内皮素1(ET-1)的表达情况。方法健康4月龄新西兰兔32只,随机分成4组,每组8只,选取L5,6椎体(对应L4/L5及L5/L6椎间盘)注射300μL无水乙醇,选取L4椎体(对应L3/L4椎间盘)注射磷酸盐缓冲液(PBS)作为实验对照,L7椎体(对应L6/L7椎间盘)未注入任何物质作为正常对照。其中1组造模后1个月提取软骨终板细胞,行免疫细胞化学染色检测ET-1表达;余3组分别于造模后1、3和5个月进行椎间盘X线和MRI检查,取椎间盘组织行HE染色观察形态学改变,免疫组织化学染色观察ET-1表达。结果注射无水乙醇后,随着时间进展,X线片显示椎间隙高度显著下降、椎间隙变窄、边缘骨赘增生,MRI T2WI显示椎间盘低信号;苏木精-伊红染色(HE)显示终板的生长板厚度变薄,终板结构破损,同时软骨终板细胞退化、直至消失,髓核中细胞发生转化(由空泡细胞转变为软骨样细胞,进而形成纤维软骨样细胞)造成髓核纤维化,纤维环结构排列紊乱、纤维化程度逐步加重;免疫组织化学染色显示,发生退行性变的终板组织内有ET-1表达,但随着退行性变加剧,ET-1表达强度下降;提取的退行性变软骨终板细胞(造模后1个月)也显示细胞质内ET-1强表达。结论通过注射无水乙醇阻碍椎体-终板营养途径可成功建立兔椎间盘退行性变模型,终板退行性变过程中伴随ET-1的表达。 相似文献

应用微创技术建立恒河猴腰椎间盘早期退变模型 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
目的 应用CT定位,经皮穿刺纤维环诱导恒河猴腰椎间盘退变,建立灵长类动物腰椎间盘早期退变模型.方法 恒河猴13只,随机分为三组:(1)造模组:在CT定位下,用20G穿刺针从左侧后方入路经皮穿刺L1,2:(n=12),L2,3、L3,4、L4,5、L5,6(n=13)椎间盘的纤维环全层至椎间盘髓核正中,共64个椎间盘.(2)穿刺对照组:15G穿刺针穿刺1只猴的L1,2椎间盘.(3)正常对照组:L6,7,L7-S1,共26个椎间盘.造模前及造模后4、8、12周对各组椎间盘行MRI检查,并行HE、Masson、番红O、免疫组织化学染色组织学观察.结果 (1)MRI:20G穿刺针穿刺的造模组椎间盘造模前及造模后4、8、12周,椎间盘信号强度按Pfirmann分级均为Ⅰ级.15G穿刺针穿刺椎间盘4周时信号降低(Pfirrmann Ⅲ级),8周时为黑色椎间盘(Pfirmann Ⅳ级).正常对照组椎间盘为Pfirmann Ⅰ级.(2)组织学:造模组椎间盘造模后4周未见改变,8周时HE染色示髓核内细胞数减少,12周时较为明显.Masson染色4周未见改变,8周时各层纤维间出现裂隙,12周时裂隙增宽.番红O染色见8、12周髓核内蛋白聚糖进行性减少.免疫组织化学结果显示4周和8周时同正常椎间盘比较差异无统计学意义(P>0.05),12周时,Ⅱ型胶原合成减少(P<0.05).15G穿刺对照组在8周时HE染色见髓核内细胞减少明显,Masson染色见纤维环各层间裂隙明显,呈波浪状.番红O染色示髓核内蛋白聚糖数量明显减少.免疫组织化学染色示Ⅱ型胶原合成减少.正常对照组在各时间点未见到形态学改变.结论 20G穿刺针可以诱发椎间盘缓慢进展的轻度退变.MRI平均信号强度观察椎间盘轻度退变时,不是敏感的指标,需要依靠组织学证实. 相似文献
