This study aimed to investigate whether gene transfer of myocardin to the penis of diabetic rats can modulate corpus cavernosum smooth muscle (CCSM) cells phenotype and restore erectile function. Five normal control rats, and 22 diabetic rats were randomly divided into four groups: rats transfected with adCMV‐myocardin (N = 6), treated with empty vector (N = 6), injected with medium (N = 5), and sham‐operated rats (N = 5). The erectile response was measured 7 days after transfection. The percent of smooth muscle and the expressions of SMα‐actin, smooth muscle myosin heavy chain (SMMHC), calponin were evaluated. The increases in intracorporal pressure(ICP)/mean arterial pressure and total ICP in response to nerve stimulation in the adCMV‐myocardin treated rats were significantly greater than those in the empty vector (P < 0.001 and P < 0.001), medium only (P < 0.001 and P < 0.001), and sham‐operated rats (P < 0.001 and P < 0.001). The suppressed expressions of SMα‐actin, SMMHC and calponin were completely restored, and the amount of smooth muscle in diabetic rats were not restored after treatment. It is concluded that myocardin ameliorated erectile responses in diabetic rats mainly via promoting phenotypic modulation of CCSM cells from a proliferative to a contractile state. 相似文献

目的:探讨粉防己碱(tetrandrine,Tet)松弛阴茎海绵体平滑肌的作用机制。方法:体外培养新西兰白兔阴茎海绵体平滑肌细胞,经钙荧光指示剂 Fluo-2/AM 负载后,用荧光离子数字成像系统观察 Tet 对平滑肌细胞内[Ca~(2 )]_i 的影响。结果:Tet(1,10,100μmol/L)对平滑肌细胞内静息[Ca~(2 )]_i无明显影响(P>0.05)。当细胞外钙离子浓度为2.5 mmol/L 时,Tet(1μmol/L,10 μmol/L,100 μmol/L)抑制了高钾和去氧肾上腺素(PE)导致的细胞内[Ca~(2 )]_i 升高(P<0.05),这种抑制作用具有浓度依赖性。在无细胞外钙时,1 μmol/L和10μmol/L Tet 对 PE 引起的细胞内[Ca~(2 )]_i 升高无明显影响(P>0.05);而100 μmol/L Tet 能明显抑制 PE 引起的细胞内[Ca~(2 )]_i 升高(P<0.05)。结论:Tet 通过阻滞电压依赖性钙通道、α_1受体依赖性钙通道和抑制细胞内钙库释放,降低阴茎海绵体平滑肌细胞内[Ca~(2 )]_i 水平,这是 Tet 松弛阴茎海绵体平滑肌的作用机制之一。 相似文献

OBJECTIVES
To evaluate whether rat fetal brain stem cells can be induced to acquire cell fates outside the nervous system, hypothesising that cell‐based replacement therapy with stem cells can aid in the regeneration of penile smooth musculature and might help to attenuate organic erectile dysfunction (ED), as the degeneration of penile smooth muscle cells leading to subsequent impairment of function is important in organic ED.MATERIALS AND METHODS
Fetal brain stem cells (FBSCs) from embryonal 12‐day Fisher 344 rats were isolated and characterized. For in vitro studies, undifferentiated FBSCs were cultured for 21 days in either N2 media (control) or N2 media conditioned in rat penile smooth muscle cell culture. These were then subjected to immunocytochemistry for specific markers of neural stem cells (nestin) and penile smooth muscle cells, i.e. α‐smooth muscle actin (αSMA), penis‐specific myosin light chain (MLC) desmin, calponin, vimentin, phosphodiesterase‐5 (PDE5) and connexin. For in vivo studies, male adult Fisher 344 rats had an intracavernous injection with saline (five rats, control) or FBSCs that were labelled genetically by an expression construct for green fluorescent protein (GFP, nine rats, experimental) and maintained for 6 weeks. The rats were then killed and penile tissue was harvested and subjected to immunocytochemistry for markers of neural stem cells, smooth muscle cells, and sinusoidal endothelium (vascular endothelial growth factor, VEGF).RESULTS
Undifferentiated cells exposed to N2 media continued to maintain the characteristic morphological and protein marker features of FBSCs, while the cells exposed to the conditioned media acquired the morphological features of smooth muscle cells. In addition, the differentiated cells (30–40%) expressed smooth muscle markers. Rats implanted with FBSCs had cells that showed double‐labelling for GFP/αSMA, GFP/calponin and GFP/VEGF. The control group had no evidence of such double‐labelling.CONCLUSIONS
These results suggest the transdifferentiation of FBSCs into penile smooth muscle cells. Such transdifferentiated cells showed long‐term survival when injected into the cavernous tissue, thus raising the possibility of a novel therapeutic option for organic ED. 相似文献5.

This study compared tankyrase 1 expression and autophagy quantity between erectile dysfunction (ED) and non-ED rats' corpus cavernosum smooth muscle cells (CSMCs). This study aslo explored the effect and possible mechanism of tankyrase 1 on autophagy and cell proliferation in ageing ED rats' CSMCs. The intracavernous pres- sure and mean systemic arterial pressure were measured to investigate erectile function so that eight 24-month-old ED and eight 8-month-old male Wistar rats were choosed respectively. The rat CSMCs were isolated and cultured by enzyme digestion, in which tankyrase 1 expression and autophagy quantity were compared. Tankyrase 1 over-expression was induced with plasmid transfection by Lipofectamine^TM. The effect of tankyrase 1 overexpression on proliferation, autophagy and mTOR pathway in 24-month-old ED rats' CSMCs was measured by the cell growth curve in MTT assay, cell cycle analysis in flow cytometry (FCM), key protein expression in Western blot, autophagy quantity in transmission electron microscopy, monodansylcadaverine staining and GFP-LC3 fluorescence. The primary CSMCs were confirmed by immunofluorescence, and the purity was 99.1% in FCM. Compared with that of 8-month-old rats, tankyrase 1 expression and autophagy quantity significantly decreased in 24-month-old ED rats' primary CSMCs (P 〈 0.01). Tankyrase 1 overexpression significantly increased the growth rate (P 〈 0.05) and increased the S phase of cell cycle (P 〈 0.01). The autophagosome quantity was remarkably increased (P 〈 0.01), LC3-Ⅰ/Ⅱ and Beclin 1 were upregulated (P 〈 0.01 and P 〈 0.05), and p-p70S6K (Thr389) was downregulated in 24-month-old ED rat CSMCs (P 〈 0.05). In conclusion, Tankyrase 1 and autophagy decrease in the CSMCs from aging rats with ED, and tankyrase 1 may have a positive effect on proliferation by enhancing autophagy and regulating the mTOR signalling pathway. 相似文献

Between May 1985 and March 1992, 172 patients suffering from chronic erectile dysfunction (21-70 years old) underwent constant corpus cavernosum autoinjection therapy (CAT) with a standardized papaverine phentolamine mixture (16385 injections). Thereafter 41 patients continued CAT with the single agent papaverine (1257 injections). On the basis of both these 17642 protocol auto-injections, and over 6 years of experience with intracavernosal autoinjection therapy we conclude that, especially with the papaverine-phentolamine mixture, CAT constitutes an effective therapy (full rigidity in 95.8%) with tolerable side-effects for chronic erectile dysfunction when preceded by careful patient selection and thorough multi-disciplinary evaluation. This is especially so in the case of arterial and/or neurogenic aetiology of the erectile dysfunction. In addition, the contraindications must be strictly observed, the treatment and technique fully explained, and a regular follow-up instituted. CAT is generally well accepted by the patients and their partners (98.8%/97.6%) and has distinct positive effects on self-esteem (77.8%), performance anxiety (84.4%), and partnership (79.5%). The most serious side-effect was prolonged erection (25 out of 17642 injections). In 6 patients reversible fibrotic changes near the tunica albuginea were observed. 相似文献

To study the relaxation mechanisms of neferine (Nef) on the corpus cavernosum smooth muscle (CCSM), the CCSM cells from New Zealand White rabbits were cultured in vitro. [Ca(2+)](i) was measured by fluorescence ion digital imaging system (FIDIS), using Fluo-2/AM as a Ca(2+)-sensitive fluorescent indicator. Nef (0.1, 1 and 10 micromol l(-1)) had no effect on the resting [Ca(2+)](i) (P > 0.05). In the presence of extracellular Ca(2+) (2.5 mmol l(-1)), Nef (0.1, 1 and 10 micromol l(-1)) inhibited [Ca(2+)](i) elevation induced by high K(+) and phenylephrine (PE) in a concentration-dependent manner (P < 0.05). In calcium free solution containing egtaic acid (EGTA), Nef (0.1 micromol l(-1)) had no inhibitory effects on [Ca(2+)](i) elevation induced by PE (P > 0.05). However, Nef (1 and 10 micromol l(-1)) inhibited [Ca(2+)](i) elevation induced by PE (P < 0.05). These data suggest that Nef inhibited [Ca(2+)](i) in CCSM cells via blocking voltage-dependent Ca(2+) channel, alpha(1)-adrenoceptor-operated Ca(2+) channel and Ca(2+) release from intracellular Ca(2+) pool. This inhibitory action on [Ca(2+)](i) might be one of the relaxation mechanisms of Nef on the CCSM. 相似文献

Erectile dysfunction (ED) commonly results from endothelial dysfunction of the systemic vasculature. Although phosphodiesterase type 5 (PDE-5) inhibitors are effective at treating most cases of ED, they must be taken routinely and are ineffectual for a meaningful number of men. In recent years gene and stem cell-based therapies targeted at the penile endothelium have been gaining momentum in preclinical studies. These early studies reveal that gene and stem cell-based therapies may be both enduring and efficacious, and may eventually lead to a cure for ED. The following review will highlight our current understanding of endothelial-specific gene and stem cell-based therapies performed to date in a number of experimental animal models. 相似文献

干细胞治疗阴茎勃起功能障碍的研究进展 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
阴茎勃起功能障碍(ED)是指男性反复或者持续性的难以达到和维持充分的阴茎勃起,无法完成性交或满意性活动的病理现象。海绵体神经(CN)损伤引起的勃起神经反射中断,是患者出现ED的直接原因,此外,CN损伤后,阴茎海绵体组织平滑肌细胞和内皮细胞凋亡增加,海绵体平滑肌纤维数量减少加重了ED的发生。因此,尽早干预CN损伤的病理过程,促进CN再生是治疗CN损伤性ED的关键。近年来,干细胞在ED治疗中的应用日益成为临床研究热点。现对胚胎干细胞(ESC)、间充质干细胞(MSCs)、肌源性干细胞(MDSCs)、脂肪干细胞(ADSCs)在ED治疗中的研究综述如下。 相似文献

Outcome of penile prosthesis implantation for treating erectile dysfunction: experience with 504 procedures 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the outcome of penile prosthesis surgery for different types of prosthesis. PATIENTS AND METHODS: The notes of 447 men who had 504 penile prosthesis implanted between August 1975 and December 2000 were evaluated. Of the prostheses inserted, 393 were malleable, 81 were three-piece inflatable and 30 were self-contained hydraulic prostheses. The mean (range) age of the men was 52 (21-78) years; 404 men had primary implants and 43 had revision surgery after operations at other institutions. The mean follow-up was 50 (1-297) months. RESULTS: Of the 447 men, 22 were lost to follow-up immediately after surgery. The most serious postoperative complications were infection (8%) and erosion (5%), which was more common in diabetic patients (10%) and after pelvic trauma with a urethral injury (21%). Of 482 prostheses, 21 failed mechanically (4%) and revision surgery was needed for 5% of the prostheses inserted (24/482). Overall, 89% (377/425) of men could have sexual intercourse and 344 (81%) were satisfied with the results. CONCLUSIONS: Of the men implanted with a penile prosthesis, 81% were satisfied with the outcome and an even higher proportion were satisfied with the inflatable prostheses. Dissatisfaction was mainly due to complications that resulted in removal of the prosthesis. 相似文献

Application of correlation techniques in the analysis of corpus cavernosum electromyographic signals
Jiang XG Holsheimer J Manola L Wagner G Wijkstra H Knipscheer B Meuleman EJ 《Asian journal of andrology》2007,9(3):369-376
Aim: To establish an objective, easy-to-use and comprehensive method to analyze corpus cavernosum electromyo- graphic signals (CC-potentials). Methods: CC-potentials were recorded during flaccidity in 23 young healthy volunteers, with surface electrodes placed on the penile shaft bilaterally. Based on the correlation function of Matlab software, an application program for the analysis of CC-potentials was developed. Individual CC-potentials and their autocorrelation function were evaluated, yielding parameters amplitude (A), duration (D), and dominant frequency (DF). The crosscorrelation function of both longitudinal and bilateral pairs of adjacent electrodes was calculated to assess the similar- ity and mutual delay of CC-potentials recorded simultaneously from different parts of the CC. The parameters derived were squared maximum cross-correlation coefficient (Rmax) and delay (τ). Based on the absolute value of τ and the corresponding inter-electrode distance, propagation velocity (PV) was calculated. Results. The values of the parameters were determined automatically. No significant difference related to the locations of the electrodes for parameters A, D, and DF was detected. The cross-correlation showed that both longitudinal and bilateral CC-potential pairs had highly similar waveforms (the absolute values of Rmax were 0.80 ± 0.05 and 0.87 ± 0.06, respectively). PV of longitudinal pairs was estimated as 6.15 ± 3.98 cm/s. Conclusion: The application program for correlation analysis of CC-potentials is a comprehensive and versatile method to analyze corpus cavernosum electromyographic recordings. Its objectiveness makes multi-center application possible. 相似文献

The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between sulphur dioxide (SO2) signalling pathway and the changes in erectile function under low androgen levels. Thirty‐six healthy male Sprague Dawley (SD) rats aged eight weeks were randomly divided into androgen replacement group, castration group and sham group. Rats in the androgen replacement group were subcutaneously injected with testosterone propionate at 3 mg/kg every other day postcastration. The maximum intracavernous pressure/mean arterial pressure (ICPmax/MAP) and the relative content of SO2 in the penile corpus cavernosum were measured. The mRNA and protein expressions of aspartate aminotransferase (AAT1 and AAT2), cysteine oxidase (CDO), endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) and phosphorylation of endothelial nitric oxide synthase (P‐eNOS) were detected. ICPmax/MAP, P‐eNOS/eNOS and the level of SO2 decreased significantly in the castration group compared to the other groups (p < 0.05). The expressions of mRNA and protein decreased significantly in the castration group compared to the androgen replacement group and the sham group (p < 0.05), while there was no significant difference between the androgen replacement group and sham group. Low androgen levels can inhibit erectile function by downregulating the SO2 signalling pathway. 相似文献
