Nowadays, researchers pay a vast deal of attention to neural tissue regeneration due to its tremendous effect on the patient's life. There are many strategies, from using conventional autologous nerve grafts to the newly developed methods for reconstructing damaged nerves. Among the various therapeutic methods, incorporating highly potent biomolecules and growth factors, the damaged nerve site would promote nerve regeneration. The aim was to examine the efficiency of a mesenchymal stem cell condition medium (MSC-CM) loaded on a 3D-polycaprolactone (PCL) scaffold as a nerve conduit in an axotomy rat model. Twenty-four mature male rats were classified into four groups: controls (the animals of this group were intact), axotomy (10 mm piece of the nerve was removed), axotomy (10-mm piece of the nerve was removed) + scaffold, and axotomy (10-mm piece of the nerve was removed) + MSC-CM-loaded scaffold. We followed up nerve motor function using a sciatic function index and electromyography activity of the gastrocnemius muscle. At 12 weeks post axotomy, sciatic nerve and dorsal root ganglion specimens and L4 and L5 spinal cord segments were separated from the rats and were analyzed by stereological, immunohistochemistry, and RT-PCR procedures. The rats of the axotomy group presented the expected gross locomotor deficit. Stereological parameters, immunohistochemistry of GFAP, and gene expression of S100, NGF, and BDNF were significantly enhanced in the CM-loaded scaffold group compared with the axotomy group. The most observed similarity was noted between the results of the control group and the CM-loaded scaffold group. Our results support the potential applicability of MSC-CM-loaded PCL nanofibrous scaffold to treat peripheral nerve injury (PNI).
如今,由于神经组织再生对患者生活有巨大影响,研究人员对此给予了极大关注。有许多策略,从使用传统的自体神经移植到新开发的方法来重建受损神经。在各种治疗方法中,将高活性生物分子和生长因子结合起来,损伤的神经部位会促进神经再生。本研究旨在检测负载在 3D-聚己内酯(PCL)支架上的间充质干细胞条件培养基(MSC-CM)作为轴索切断大鼠模型中神经导管的效率。24 只成熟雄性大鼠分为四组:对照组(该组动物完整)、轴索切断组(切除 10mm 神经段)、轴索切断+支架组和轴索切断+负载 MSC-CM 的支架组。我们使用坐骨神经功能指数和腓肠肌肌电图活动来跟踪神经运动功能。在轴索切断后 12 周,从大鼠中分离出坐骨神经和背根神经节标本以及 L4 和 L5 脊髓节段,并通过体视学、免疫组织化学和 RT-PCR 程序进行分析。轴索切断组的大鼠表现出预期的明显运动功能缺陷。与轴索切断组相比,负载 CM 的支架组的立体学参数、GFAP 免疫组织化学和 S100、NGF 和 BDNF 的基因表达显著增强。在对照组和负载 CM 的支架组之间观察到最相似的结果。我们的结果支持负载 MSC-CM 的 PCL 纳米纤维支架治疗周围神经损伤(PNI)的潜在适用性。
