Aim To investigate the injury of 5-fluorouracil(5-FU)to perivascular hematopoietic niche via isolating mouse bone marrow perivascular mesenchymal progenitor cells in vitro and its related mechanism. Methods The perivascular mesenchymal progenitor cells were isolated from femurs and tibias of C57BL/6J mice with type Ⅱ collagenase and cultured in vitro. Agarose gel electrophoresis was used to detect specific niche genes expression. The viable cells were counted by Trypan blue; the cellular proliferation was detected by CCK-8; the apoptosis was detected by Annexin V/PI double staining, and the cell senescence was detected by β-galactosidase staining. The levels of malondialdehyde(MDA)and superoxide dismutase(SOD)were detected by enzymatic assay. Osteogenic and adipogenic differentiation potential of cells were detected by osteogenic and adipogenic differentiation experiment and osteogenic related genes qRT-PCR assay. The mRNA expression of hematopoietic growth factors was detected by qRT-PCR. Hematopoietic cells were co-cultured with perivascular mesenchymal progenitor cells, and the adhesion molecules and signal molecules between stromal cells and hematopoietic cells were detected, also hematopoietic cell activity, redox indicators and β-galactosidase specific cell senescence were detected. Results 5-FU caused simultaneous apoptosis and senescence of perivascular mesenchymal progenitor cells, inhibited cell proliferation, induced oxidative stress, led to osteogenic/adipogenic differentiation imbalance, and down-regulated the transcription of hematopoietic factors SCF, CXCL12, and G-CSF. For the interaction between stromal cells and hematopoietic cells, the binding effects of VLA-4/VCAM-1, ICAM-1/LFA1 were weakened and TPO/MPL and ANG-1/Tie-2 signals were impaired, leading to oxidative stress of hematopoietic cells and cell senescence. Conclusions 5-FU induces oxidative damage of perivascular mesenchymal progenitor cells and indirectly induces premature senescence of hematopoietic cells.
摘要
Intervertebral disc degeneration (IDD) is an age-related degenerative disease and a major cause of low back pain. IDD greatly impairs the quality of life of patients and dramatically increases the economic burden of patient families. There are currently no effective intervention and treatment for IDD, partly due to a lack of understanding of its pathogenesis. The establishment and characterization of IDD animal models are critical for defining mechanisms underlying its pathogenesis. IDD is a complex process, which is affected by mechanical stress, injury, biochemistry and gene expression. In this review article, we summarize several IDD animal models generated by utilizing abnormal mechanical stress, injury, biochemical and chemical induction and gene knockout. Biomechanics play a key role in maintaining intervertebral disc homeostasis, and abnormal mechanical stress can cause IDD. Usually, IDD is accompanied by structural injury which exacerbates IDD. In addition, biochemical and chemical induction and knockout of key genes can also lead to IDD. Among the different factors causing abnormal mechanical stress, there are two mechanical stress models: pressure model and instability model. According to the structure of intervertebral disc, there are two structural injury models: the nucleus pulposus and annulus fibrosus injury model and the cartilage endplate injury model. The biochemical and chemical induction model and the gene knockout model are summarized, and the applications and limitations of different IDD animal models are discussed.

Objective:To investigate the analgesic effect of neurotropin (NTP) on bone cancer pain (BCP) and its preliminary mechanisms in rats.Methods:(1) According to the random number table method, 72 Sprague-Dawley (SD) female rats were randomly and equally divided into 6 groups: normal control group, sham-operated group, BCP model group, BCP+low-dose NTP group, BCP+medium-dose NTP group, and BCP+high-dose NTP group ( n=12). The SHZ-88 breast cancer cells were inoculated into the tibias of rats in the latter 4 groups to establish BCP models. After 15-21 d of modeling, the rats of the latter 3 groups were intraperitoneally administered with 1.2, 2.4 and 3.6 unit NTP, respectively, once per d for 7 consecutive d. The mechanical withdrawal threshold (MWT) changes were measured in each group before BCP and 5, 7, 10, 14, 17, and 21 d after BCP. The number of 5-hydroxytryptamine 7 (5-HT7) positive cells and 5-HT7 protein expression in the ventrolateral periaqueductal gray (vlPAG) were detected by immunohistochemistry and Western blotting, respectively. (2) Twenty-four rats 21 d after BCP modeling were randomly divided into BCP group, BCP+high-dose NTP group (BCP rats with intraperitoneal injection of 3.6 unit NTP), BCP+NTP+SB-269970 group (BCP rats with pretreatment of specific 5-HT7 receptor antagonist SB-269970 in the vlPAG for 30 min, and then, with intraperitoneal injection of 3.6 unit NTP, n=8). The MWT changes were measured in each group before NTP and 15, 30, 45, 60 min after NTP. Results:(1) Seventeen and 21 d after modeling, the MWT values of the modeled hind limb of rats in BCP+low-dose NTP group, BCP+medium-dose NTP group, and BCP+high-dose NTP group were significantly higher than those in BCP group; those in the BCP+high-dose NTP group were significantly higher than those in BCP+low-dose NTP group and BCP+medium-dose NTP group; those in BCP+medium-dose NTP group were statistically higher than those in the BCP+low-dose NTP group ( P<0.05). Twenty-one d after modeling, the number of 5-HT7 receptor positive cells and protein expression in the vlPAG of rats in the BCP+low-dose NTP group, BCP+medium-dose NTP group, and BCP+high-dose NTP group were significantly larger/higher than those in BCP group; those in the BCP+high-dose NTP group were significantly larger/higher than those in BCP+low-dose NTP group and BCP+medium-dose NTP group; those in BCP+medium-dose NTP group were statistically larger/higher than those in the BCP+low-dose NTP group ( P<0.05). (2) At 15, 30, 45 and 60 min after injection of NTP, the MWT values of the modeled hind limb of rats in the BCP+high-dose NTP group and BCP+NTP+SB-269970 group increased gradually, enjoying statistical significance as compared with those in the BCP group at the same time point ( P<0.05); however, the MWT values of the BCP+NTP+SB-269970 group were significantly lower as compared with those in the BCP+high-dose NTP group at the same time point ( P<0.05). Conclusion:The activation of 5-HT7 receptor in the vlPAG is involved in the analgesic effect of NTP on BCP in rats.

Objective The activation of P2X7 receptor in ventrolateral periaqueductal gray (vlPAG) is involved in the formation and maintenance of bone cancer pain (BCP). This study will establish a rat model of BCP and observe the effect of the activation of P2X7 receptor in vlPAG on D-serine level through brain microdialysis combined with ELISA. Methods Forty-two female SD rats were divided into four groups by random number table: normal control group (n=12), sham group (n=12), BCP group (n=12) and P2X7 receptor antagonist group (n= 6). The model of metastatic BCP in the tibias of the rats was established in the BCP group, and 20μL of RPMI-1640 medium cell suspension containing SHZ-88 breast cancer cells was injected (1×107 cancer cells/0.5 mL). The sham group was injected with treated cancer cells of the same volume (SHZ-88 breast cancer cells were kept in boiling water at 90 ℃ for 20 min), and the rest of the operation was the same as the BCP group. The normal control group received no treatment. The P2X7 receptor antagonist group was treated the same as the BCP group, except that the P2X7 receptor-specific antagonist A-438079 was added to the perfusion solution. The thermal pain threshold and mechanical pain threshold were detected at the same time in the normal control group, the sham group and the BCP group. The positive expression of P2X7 receptor in vlPAG of rats was detected by immunohistochemistry in each group in 21 days. The changes of D-serine in vlPAG dialysate were detected by ELISA in each group. Results The mechanical pain threshold and thermal pain threshold of the rats in BCP group on Day 5, 7, 10, 14, 18 and 21 were lower than those of the normal control group and sham group (P<0.01). The positive expression of P2X7 was scattered in vlPAG in normal control group and sham group. The number of P2X7 receptor positive cells in the BCP group was significantly higher than that in the control group and sham group (P<0.01). The content of D-serine in vlPAG of the rats in BCP group [(220.28±63.38)ng/mL] was significantly higher than that in the control group [(148.09±46.89)ng/mL] and the sham group [(147.32±51.44)ng/mL] (P<0.05). The content of D-serine in vlPAG [(134.20±41.77)ng/mL] in P2X7 receptor antagonist group was significantly lower than that in BCP group (P<0.05). Conclusion The activation of the P2X7 receptor in ventrolateral periaqueductal gray promotes D-serine release and participates in the mechanisms of BCP in rats .

BACKGROUND@#Malignant pleural effusion (MPE) is a complicated condition of patients with advanced tumors. Further dissecting the microenvironment of infiltrated immune cells and malignant cells are warranted to understand the immune-evasion mechanisms of tumor development and progression.@*METHODS@#The possible involvement of microRNAs (miRNAs) in malignant pleural fluid was investigated using small RNA sequencing. Regulatory T cell (Treg) markers (CD4, CD25, forkhead box P3), and Helios (also known as IKAROS Family Zinc Finger 2 [IKZF2]) were detected using flow cytometry. The expression levels of IKZF2 and miR-4772-3p were measured using quantitative real-time reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction. The interaction between miR-4772-3p and Helios was determined using dual-luciferase reporter assays. The effects of miR-4772-3p on Helios expression were evaluated using an in vitro system. Correlation assays between miR-4772-3p and functional molecules of Tregs were performed.@*RESULTS@#Compared with non-malignant controls, patients with non-small cell lung cancer had an increased Tregs frequency with Helios expression in the MPE and peripheral blood mononuclear cells. The verified downregulation of miR-4772-3p was inversely related to the Helios Tregs frequency and Helios expression in the MPE. Overexpression of miR-4772-3p could inhibit Helios expression in in vitro experiments. However, ectopic expression of Helios in induced Tregs reversed the effects induced by miR-4772-3p overexpression. Additionally, miR-4772-3p could regulate Helios expression by directly targeting IKZF2 mRNA.@*CONCLUSION@#Downregulation of miR-4772-3p, by targeting Helios, contributes to enhanced Tregs activities in the MPE microenvironment.

Objective The main intracellular signal of P2X7 receptor activation is the increasing of Ca2+, which then presents the diversity of its physiological and pathological functions through multiple intracellular signal transduction. To observe the effect of activation of P2X7 receptor on intracellular calcium(Ca2+)level in lateral midbrain periaqueductal gray (lPAG) neurons of primary cultured rat. Methods The primary cultured lPAG neurons were randomly divided into 4 groups: control group(no drug added), only for control; BzATP group(100 μmol/L); A-740003+ BzATP group(incubate with 100 nmol/L A-740003 for 10 min, then add 10 μmol/L ofBzATP); BzATP control group(add in Ca2+-free solution for 20 min, then add BzATP). The incubation solution of control group, BzATP group and A-740003+ BzATP group are DMEM/F12 medium, and the BzATP control group is Ca2+-free. The laser scanning confocal microscopy (LSCM) was used to detect : the changes of cultured neuron Ca2+ levels by different concentrations of BzATP; the effects of A-740003 and Ca2+-free medium preincubation on BzATP-induced Ca2+ level alterations in cultured neurons. Results BzATP dose-dependently increased the Ca2+ levels in cultured lPAG neurons; A-740003 and Ca2+-free medium inhibited the BzATP-induced increasing of Ca2+ level in cultured lPAG neurons. LSCM showed: The intracellular calcium fluorescence insensity(2.48±1.05) in the BzATP group was significantly higher than that in the blank control group, BzATP control group and A-740003+ BzATP group[(1.12±0.03), (1.09±0.03), (1.14±0.08)](P<0.01). Conclusion The activation of P2X7 receptor can increase the level of lPAG neurons Ca2+ , and is associated with the extracellular Ca2+ influx.
