脊髓损伤后运动功能恢复中粒细胞集落刺激因子的作用

背景：近期有文献报道了粒细胞集落刺激因子在脑梗死模型及急性脊髓损伤模型中的神经保护作用,但应用的动物模型均非击打模型,与人体脊髓损伤的病理生理过程存在一定差距。 目的：观察粒细胞集落刺激因子对Allen’s脊髓损伤大鼠模型运动功能恢复的影响。 方法：使用改良Allen’s法制作T10节段Wistar大鼠脊髓损伤撞击模型,随机分为2组,粒细胞集落刺激因子组应用粒细胞集落刺激因子治疗,vehicle组注射等剂量PBS。于造模后第1,7,14,21,28,35天分别应用BBB运动功能评分法和Rivlin斜板实验评估大鼠运动功能,造模后第7,14,21,28,35天使用网格步行实验评估大鼠四肢肌力。 结果与结论：所有大鼠造模后均出现后肢瘫痪症状。造模后第7,14,21,28,35天粒细胞集落刺激因子组BBB运动功能评分及Rivlin斜板实验评分高于vehicle组(P < 0.05-0.01),造模后第14,21,28,35天粒细胞集落刺激因子组网格行走实验错误数低于vehicle组(P < 0.05-0.01),结果显示,粒细胞集落刺激因子治疗后大鼠运动功能及四肢肌力恢复情况均优于vehicle组。提示粒细胞集落刺激因子疗法对脊髓损伤起到了积极的治疗效果。

Granulocyte-colony stimulating factor improves motor function of rats with spinal cord injury

BACKGROUND:Recently, a neuroprotective effect of granulocyte colony-stimulating factor was reported in a model of cerebral infarction and a model of acute spinal cord injury. However, the applied animal model was not established by impact method, different from pathophysiological process of human. OBJECTIVE:To observe effects of granulocyte colony-stimulating factor on motor function in a rat model of spinal cord injury induced by Allen’s method. METHODS:Wistar rats were used to establish spinal cord injury at T10 level using modified Allen’s method. They were randomly assigned to two groups, granulocyte colony-stimulating factor group, treated with granulocyte colony-stimulating factor, and vehicle group, treated with equal volume of PBS. The motor function was evaluated with Basso-Beattie-Bresnahan score and modified Rivlin loxotic plate test monitored at 1, 7, 14, 21, 28 and 35 days, and four-limb muscle strength was assessed using Grid walk test at 7, 14, 21, 28 and 35 days post-operatively. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Hind limbs paralysis occurred in all animals postoperatively. Scores of Basso-Beattie-Bresnahan and modified Rivlin loxotic plate test were greater in granulocyte colony-stimulating factor group compared with vehicle group at 7, 14, 21, 28 and 35 days (P < 0.05-0.01); mean Grid walk test errors were less in granulocyte colony-stimulating factor group compared with vehicle group at 14, 21, 28 and 35 days (P < 0.05-0.01). Results indicate that motor function and four-limb muscle strength were improved following granulocyte colony-stimulating factor therapy compared with vehicle group, indicating that granulocyte   colony-stimulating factor has a positive effect on spinal cord injury.
