目的观察年龄因素对骨髓间充质干细胞(marrow mesenchymal stem cells, MSCs)成骨分化能力的影响;了解基因治疗对老年大鼠MSCs成骨分化能力的影响. 方法 1月龄(幼年组)、9月龄(成年组)及24月龄(老年组)雄性Wistar大鼠各6只,取MSCs经体外分离、培养及携带骨形成蛋白2(bone morphogenetic protein 2,BMP-2)基因的腺病毒载体(Ad-BMP-2)转染后,定量检测BMP-2、碱性磷酸酶(alkaline phosphate,ALP)表达,以及成骨细胞标志性蛋白:Ⅰ型胶原、骨涎蛋白(bone sialoprotein,BSP)和骨桥素(osteopontin, OPN)的表达.将转染的各组MSCs分别与磷酸三钙(tricalcium phosphate, TCP)复合后植入裸鼠体内,3周后取材,比较各组诱导异位成骨能力. 结果 ELISA检测表明BMP-2基因修饰的MSCs可以有效表达BMP-2,且表达量在各年龄组间差异无统计学意义(P>0.05);各组ALP于诱导后第9天达高峰,但组间差异均无统计学意义(P＞0.05);诱导后第7天,RT-PCR半定量检测示各组均有成骨细胞特征性蛋白,即:Ⅰ型胶原、OPN及BSP的明显表达,表达量在各组间差异无统计学意义(P>0.05);BMP-2基因转染的MSCs与TCP复合后可诱导裸鼠体内异位成骨,各组成骨量差异无统计学意义(P>0.05). 结论 BMP-2基因修饰的老年大鼠MSCs可以恢复成骨分化能力,基因治疗可能为老年性骨骼疾病提供一种新的治疗途径.     

骨髓间充质干细胞分化为皮肤附属器细胞的初步实验研究

目的探讨骨髓间充质干细胞(marrowmesenchymalstemcells,MSCs)分化为创面皮肤附属器细胞的可能性,及其参与创面修复的可能机制。方法无菌条件下取Wistar大鼠股骨骨髓细胞,密度梯度离心分离、纯化MSCs,体外培养扩增后,用BrdU标记细胞。另于同种雄性Wistar大鼠背部正中,制备1cm×1cm全厚皮肤缺损创面模型,将BrdU标记的1×106/mlMSCs从阴茎静脉输注,术后第3天与第7天切取创面组织,行BrdU免疫组织化学单染色,以及BrdU和广谱角蛋白免疫组织化学双染色。结果BrdU阳性细胞出现在创面皮下组织、皮脂腺、毛囊和骨髓腔中。免疫组织化学双染色结果显示,皮脂腺和毛囊有BrdU阳性细胞,同时表达广谱角蛋白。结论创面愈合过程中,MSCs归巢并参与创面修复;在实验性全身皮肤缺损创面微环境下,MSCs可分化为皮肤附属器细胞。     

Effect of cortisone on cells at the bone-marrow interface

Summary A study of the association between the rate of proliferation of marrow fibroblast-like stromal cells (in vitro) and the rate of endosteal bone mineralization (EsMR) (in vivo) was undertaken in an osteopenic rat model. We report than 200 g male rats treated with cortisone acetate (5 mg/day for 7 days) exhibit decreases in marrow fibroblast colony-forming units (FCFU) and tetracycline-based measurements of EsMR at the level of the femoral midshaft. In cortisone-treated rats recovering for 1–3 weeks, the FCFU census and EsMR normalized during the first posttreatment week, remained at control levels after 2–3 weeks, and exhibited a relapse in the third week which signified only partial recovery. These changes were unrelated to patterns of body weight gain. The data indicate that the FCFU census can serve to index endosteal osteoblast vigor.

IMMUNOREGULATORY EFFECT OF PANAXATRIOL GINSENOSIDE ON IMMUNE FUNCTIONS IN BONE MARROW SUPPRESSED MICE

The effect of Panaxatriol Ginsenoside (PTGS) on Immune functions in bone marrow suppressed mice induced by injection of cyclophosphamide (CY) has been studied. Bone marrow suppressed mice were made by injection of CY (150 mg/kg) parenterally. Subcutaneous injection of PTGS three days earlier partially restored the number and the activity of bone marrow cells, significantly enhanced the production of IL-1, IL- 3 and IL- 6 like substances and promoted the reactivity of murlne spleen cells to Con-A In bone marrow suppressed mice.     

Measurement of quality of life in bone marrow transplantation survivors

This study was designed to assess the reliability and validity of a Quality of Life (QOL) instrument on a sample of 179 allogeneic Bone Marrow Transplant (BMT) survivors. The QOL-BMT tool was developed specifically for this population and was based on the investigators' prior research and a conceptual model of Quality of Life. Patients who were at least 100 days post BMT completed the 30 item visual analogue questionnaire. The instrument measured physical symptoms (e.g., weight loss, frequent colds, skin changes, cataracts, sexual problems), psychological to illness, social concerns (e.g., relationship adjustment, return to work), and spiritual well-being (e.g., sense of control, future goals). Psychometric analysis of the instrument included measures of reliability and validity. The study findings demonstrate the unique aspects of QOL dimensions in BMT survivors and the value of QOL assessment in clinical practice and research.This study was supported by the City of Hope National Medical Center, NCI Cancer Center Core Grant, R30 CA 33572 and the City of Hope BRSG Grant Support.
