ABSTRACT
The interleukin (IL)-6 pathway plays an important role in recovery after spinal cord injury (SCI). The anti-IL-6 receptor antibody MR16-1 has been shown to suppress inflammation after SCI and promote recovery of motor function. The purpose of this study was to analyze the effects of MR16-1 on the expression patterns of phospholipids in the spinal cord in a mouse model of SCI. Eight-week-old C57BL/6JJmsSlc mice were used in this study. Laminectomy was performed at the ninth and tenth thoracic levels (T9-T10), and contusion injury of the spinal cord was induced at level T10. Immediately after SCI, mice were intraperitoneally injected with a single dose of MR16-1 (MR16-1 group) or a single dose of phosphate-buffered saline of the same volume (control group). Imaging mass spectrometry was performed to visualize phosphatidylcholine (PC) expression in the spinal cord 7 days after SCI. We found that MR16-1 treatment suppressed the infiltration of immune cells after SCI, and was able to increase the locomotor function post-injury. Phospholipid imaging revealed that the MR16-1 was able to prevent the reduction of docosahexaenoic acid (DHA)-containing PC in comparison with the control group. We also observed high levels of glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) at the site of DHA-containing PC expression in the MR16-1 group. These results suggest that MR16-1 treatment influences the DHA-containing PC composition of GFAP-positive cells at the injury site as early as 7 days post-SCI.
