摘要:

作者之前的研究表明,周围神经移植物联合成纤维细胞生长因子1治疗可以在脊髓横断的大鼠中招募更多的M2巨噬细胞,并改善功能。实验使用基质金属蛋白酶的抑制剂来影响T8处完全横切大鼠巨噬细胞的迁移,然后检测了巨噬细胞群的迁移和脊髓功能的变化。实验设脊髓横断并移除5mm为T组。接受成纤维细胞生长因子-1和周围神经移植物治疗的脊髓横断大鼠为R组。接受与R组相同的治疗,并给予MMP抑制剂GM6001干预的大鼠为RG组。结果发现,R组的大鼠移植区域中,MMP-9表达上调。局部应用MMP抑制剂导致精氨酸酶-1 /诱导型一氧化氮合酶阳性细胞比率的降低。术后8周应用MMP抑制剂后,R组大鼠恢复的脊髓功能部分丧失。这种效应伴随着神经移植物中脑源性神经营养因子水平的降低。如果联合给药治疗涉及M2募集,则需要考虑同时应用MMP抑制剂还促进MMP活性用于修复损伤脊髓。

Abstract:

Alternatively activated macrophages (M2 macrophages) promote central nervous system regeneration. Our previous study demonstrated that treatment with peripheral nerve grafts and fibroblast growth factor-1 recruited more M2 macrophages and improved partial functional recovery in spinal cord transected rats.The migration of macrophages is matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) dependent. We used a general inhibitor of MMPs to influence macrophage migration, and we examined the migration of macrophage populations and changes in spinal function. Rat spinal cords were completely transected at T8, and 5 mm of spinal cord was removed (group T). In group R, spinal cord-transected rats received treatment with fibroblast grow th factor-1 and peripheral nerve grafts. In group RG, rats received the same treatment as group R with the addition of 200 μM GM6001 (an MMP inhibitor) to the fibrin mix. We found that MMP-9, but not MMP-2, was upregulated in the graft area of rats in group R. Local application of the MMP inhibitor resulted in a reduction in the ratio of arginase-1 (M2 macrophage subset)/inducible nitric oxide synthase-postive cells.When the MMP inhibitor was applied at 8 weeks postoperation, the partial functional recovery observed in group R was lost. This effect was accompanied by a decrease in brain-derived neurotrophic factor levels in the nerve graft. These results suggested that the arginase-1 positive population in spinal cord transected rats is a migratory cell population rather than the phenotypic conversion of early iNOS+ cells and that the migration of the arginase-1+ population could be regulated locally. Simultaneous application of MMP inhibitors or promotion of MMP activity for spinal cord injury needs to be considered if the coadministered treatment involves M2 recruitment.
