AIM: To explore the approaches exerted by mesenchymal stem cells(MSCs) to improve Parkinson's disease(PD) pathophysiology.METHODS: MSCs were harvested from bone marrowof femoral bones of male rats, grown and propagated in culture. Twenty four ovariectomized animals were classified into 3 groups: Group(1) was control, Groups(2) and(3) were subcutaneously administered with rotenone for 14 d after one month of ovariectomy for induction of PD. Then, Group(2) was left untreated, while Group(3) was treated with single intravenous dose of bone marrow derived MSCs(BM-MSCs). SRY gene was assessed by PCR in brain tissue of the female rats. Serum transforming growth factor beta-1(TGF-β1), monocyte chemoattractant protein-1(MCP-1) and brain derived neurotrophic factor(BDNF) levels were assayed by ELISA. Brain dopamine DA level was assayed fluorometrically, while brain tyrosine hydroxylase(TH) and nestin gene expression were detected by semi-quantitative real time PCR. Brain survivin expression was determined by immunohistochemical procedure. Histopathological investigation of brain tissues was also done.RESULTS: BM-MSCs were able to home at the injured brains and elicited significant decrease in serum TGF-β1(489.7 ± 13.0 vs 691.2 ± 8.0, P 0.05) and MCP-1(89.6 ± 2.0 vs 112.1 ± 1.9, P 0.05) levels associated with significant increase in serum BDNF(3663 ± 17.8 vs 2905 ± 72.9, P 0.05) and brain DA(874 ± 15.0 vs 599 ± 9.8, P 0.05) levels as well as brain TH(1.18 ± 0.004 vs 0.54 ± 0.009, P 0.05) and nestin(1.29 ± 0.005 vs 0.67 ± 0.006, P 0.05) genes expression levels. In addition to, producing insignificant increase in the number of positive cells for survivin(293.2 ± 15.9 vs 271.5 ± 15.9, P 0.05) expression. Finally, the brain sections showed intact histological structure of the striatum as a result of treatment with BM-MSCs. CONCLUSION: The current study sheds light on the therapeutic potential of BM-MSCs against PD pathophysiology via multi-mechanistic actions. 相似文献

Termination of pregnancy occurred in the rat after infection with Trypanosoma lewisi early in gestation. Rats were inoculated on Day 2 of pregnancy and the uteri were excised and examined on Days 10 and 14 of gestation. There were no detectable differences in size in the fetuses of infected and control females at Day 10, but by Day 14 young of infected females were being reabsorbed, and their weight was markedly less than that of control young.A bioassay of estrogens and progestogens based on the decidual cell response indicated that there was a sufficient hormone level to maintain pregnancy beyond Day 10, so the mechanism of action by which fetal death was produced did not appear to be hormone depletion. The crucial changes in fetal weight occurred between Days 12 and 14 of gestation in rats infected with T. lewisi on Day 2 of gestation.Trypanosoma cruzi caused little or no pathologic change in the pregnant laboratory rat throghout the period of gestation and infected females gave birth to apparently normal young. 相似文献
