SDF-1/CXCR4轴在骨髓间充质干细胞移植促进胰岛再生中的作用

目的 观察同种异体骨髓间充质干细胞(MSCs)移植入受体后,基质细胞衍生因子(SDF)-1/CXCR4轴在促进残存胰岛及其周围新生血管增殖中的作用.方法 对大鼠MSCs进行体外培养、鉴定.链脲佐菌素(STZ)诱导的糖尿病大鼠随机分为A组(MSCs移植组)、B组(MSCs移植+SDF-I/CXCR4轴阻断剂AMD组)和C组(糖尿病对照组),另设D组(正常大鼠对照组).移植MSCs后第30天取出各组大鼠胰腺和血清,胰腺组织采用苏木素-伊红(HE)染色和免疫组织化学法观察CD31、增殖细胞核抗原(PCNA)、胰腺干细胞标志物(PDX)-1在胰腺组织的表达水平.血糖仪检测血糖水平、放免法检测胰岛素水平、酶联免疫吸附试验(ELISA)检测SDF-1水平.结果 (1)A组残存胰岛周围可见新生血管,CD31、PCNA、PDX-1染色阳性率分别为(71.2±5.3)%、(76.5±4.5)%、(69.8±6.7)%;B组残存胰岛周围基本未见新生血管,CD31、PCNA、PDX-1染色阳性率分别为(7.4±2.1)%、(5.5±3.7)%、(8.8±2.9)%,两组比较差异有统计学意义(P＜0.05).(2)移植后第25天,A组血糖浓度基本正常,低于B组和C组,而胰岛素水平明显高于B组和C组(P＜0.05).(3)A组与B组血清SDF-1水平差异无统计学意义(P＞0.05),但都明显高于C组(P＜0.05).结论 MSCs促进胰岛再生和新生血管形成,AMD3100能抑制MSCs的作用,进而提示SDF-1/CXCR4轴在胰岛再生和血管形成中具有重要作用.

Abstract：

Objective To investigate the role of stromal cell derived factor-1 (SDF-1)/CXCR4axis in recipients' remnant islets regeneration and neovascularization after the transplantation of allogeneic bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs). Methods MSCs were isolated from SD rats, cultured in vitro and identified by testing the phenotypes with flow cytometry ( FCM ). The diabetic rats induced by streptozotozin were randomly divided into group A ( MSCs transplant group), group B ( MSCs transplant +AMD group) and group C ( DM control group). Group D serve as the normal control. The pancreata were removed and blood serum was retrieved from each group simultaneously at the 13th day after MSCs transplant. The expression of CD31, proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) and PDX-1 in each group of pancreas tissue was detected by using immunohistochemistry, and the morphological changes in the isletswere observed by Hematoxylin and Eosin (HE) staining. Serum glucose and insulin levels were determined by blood glucose monitor, radioimmunoscintigraphy, and SDF-1 in serum was by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Results Neovascularization was observed in the remnant islets of the recipient pancreatic tissue and CD31 -positive cells (71.2 ± 5.3 ) %, PCNA-positive cells ( 76. 5 ± 4. 5 ) %, PDX-1-positive cells (69. 8 ±6. 7)% were highly expressed in group A. As compared with group A, seldom-positive cellsCD31 (7.4±2. 1)%, PCNA (5.5 ±3.7)% and PDX-1 (8.8 ±2.9)%]and rarely neovascularization were observed in group B (P ＜0. 05 ). Serum glucose level in group A was lower than that in group B and group C, but serum insulin level in group A was significantly higher than that in group B and group C (P ＜ 0. 05 ). There was no significant difference between group A and group B in serum SDF-1level ( P ＞ 0. 05 ), but that was higher in groups A and B than in group C ( P ＜ 0. 05 ). Conclusion Obviously, MSCs promote recipient neovascularization surrounding the islets, which enhances the proliferation and regeneration of remnant islets. AMD 3100 has the function of intervening SDF-1/CXCR4 axis,which inhibits the effect of MSCs on promoting islets regeneration. It is suggested that SDF-1/CXCR4 axis may play an important role in vascularization and islets regeneration.
