The development of noninvasive approaches to facilitate the regeneration of post-traumatic nerve injury is important for clinical rehabilitation. In this study, we investigated the effective dose of noninvasive 808-nm low-level laser therapy (LLLT) on sciatic nerve crush rat injury model. Thirty-six male Sprague Dawley rats were divided into 6 experimental groups: a normal group with or without 808-nm LLLT at 8 J/cm2 and a sciatic nerve crush injury group with or without 808-nm LLLT at 3, 8 or 15 J/cm2. Rats were given consecutive transcutaneous LLLT at the crush site and sacrificed 20 days after the crush injury. Functional assessments of nerve regeneration were analyzed using the sciatic functional index (SFI) and hindlimb range of motion (ROM). Nerve regeneration was investigated by measuring the myelin sheath thickness of the sciatic nerve using transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and by analyzing the expression of growth-associated protein 43 (GAP43) in sciatic nerve using western blot and immunofluorescence staining. We found that sciatic-injured rats that were irradiated with LLLT at both 3 and 8 J/cm2 had significantly improved SFI but that a significant improvement of ROM was only found in rats with LLLT at 8 J/cm2. Furthermore, the myelin sheath thickness and GAP43 expression levels were significantly enhanced in sciatic nerve-crushed rats receiving 808-nm LLLT at 3 and 8 J/cm2. Taken together, these results suggest that 808-nm LLLT at a low energy density (3 J/cm2 and 8 J/cm2) is capable of enhancing sciatic nerve regeneration following a crush injury.  相似文献

We have examined the role of gicerin, an immunoglobulin superfamily cell adhesion molecule, in chick sciatic nerves during development and regeneration. Gicerin was expressed in the spinal cord, dorsal root ganglion (DRG) and sciatic nerves in embryos, but declined after hatching. Neurite extensions from explant cultures of the DRG were promoted on gicerin's ligands, which were inhibited by an anti-gicerin antibody. Furthermore, gicerin expression was upregulated in the regenerating sciatic nerves, DRG and dorsal horn of the spinal cord after injury to the sciatic nerve. These results indicate that gicerin might participate in the development and regeneration of sciatic nerves.  相似文献

A study of the effect of weak, interrupted sinusoidal low frequency magnetic field (ISMF) stimulation on regeneration of the rat sciatic nerve was carried out. In the experiment, 60 Wistar rats were used: 24 rats underwent unilateral sciatic nerve transection injury and immediate surgical nerve repair, 24 rats underwent unilateral sciatic nerve crush injury, and the remaining 12 rats underwent a sham surgery. Half of the animals (n = 12) with either sciatic nerve lesion were randomly chosen and exposed between a pair of Helmholtz coils for 3 weeks post-injury, 4 h/day, to an interrupted (active period to pause ratio = 1.4 s/0.8 s) sinusoidal 50 Hz magnetic field of 0.5 mT. The other half of the animals (n = 12) and six rats with sham surgery were used for two separate controls. Functional recovery was followed for 6 weeks for the crush injuries and 7(1/2) months for the transection injuries by video assisted footprint analysis in static conditions and quantified using a recently revised static sciatic index (SSI) formula. We ascertained that the magnetic field influence was weak, but certainly detectable in both injury models. The accuracy of ISMF influence detection, determined by the one-way repeated measures ANOVA test, was better for the crush injury model: F(1, 198) = 9.0144, P = .003, than for the transection injury model: F(1, 198) = 6.4826, P = .012. The Student-Newman-Keuls range test for each response day yielded significant differences (P < .05) between the exposed and control groups early in the beginning of functional recovery and later on from the points adjacent to the beginning of the plateau, or 95% of functional recovery, and the end of observation. These differences probably reflect the ISMF systemic effect on the neuron cell bodies and increased and more efficient reinnervation of the periphery.  相似文献

We have examined the expression of Thy-1, an abundant glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI)-anchored glycoprotein, in dorsal root ganglia (DRG) and associated nerve fascicles, during postnatal development and following a nerve crush. The expression levels of Thy-1 in DRG neurons, dorsal roots, and central processes in spinal cord were rather low at postnatal day 2, and gradually increased as DRG neurons matured. During early development, the expression of Thy-1 within DRG neurons was low and equally distributed between plasma membrane and cytosol. With maturation, the staining intensities of Thy-1 in both the plasma membrane and the cytosol of DRG neurons became increased. We also studied Thy-1 expression in the regeneration of mature DRG neurons following the crush injury of sciatic nerve. Two days after the crush injury, Thy-1 expression dramatically decreased in the DRG neurons on the lesion side. Between 4 and 7 days after the injury, the expression of Thy-1 gradually increased and returned to a normal level 1 week after the sciatic nerve crush. The time course of the up-regulation of Thy-1 expression during regeneration matched that of the recovery of sensory functions, such as pain withdraw reflex, placing reflex, and the score of Basso-Beattie-Bresnahan Locomotor Rating Scale. Taken together, our results suggest that Thy-1 expression is developmentally regulated and is closely associated with the functional maturation of DRG neurons during both postnatal development and nerve regeneration. Furthermore, perturbation of Thy-1 function with anti-Thy-1 antibodies promoted neurite outgrowth from primary cultured DRG neurons, again confirming the inhibitory role of Thy-1 on neurite outgrowth.  相似文献

目的:周围神经再生过程中巨噬细胞发挥了重要的作用,然而目前对于神经内内源性和外源性巨噬细胞的具体作用了解的却很少,因此本实验研究了小鼠坐骨神经损伤后早期再生过程中内源性和外源性巨噬细胞数量比例变化的情况,探索周围神经再生的规律。方法:移植CAG-EGFP转基因小鼠的全骨髓有核细胞到骨髓灭活野生型C5781/6小鼠体内建立嵌合体小鼠模型。待移植成功3个月后夹伤小鼠一侧坐骨神经,并在损伤后第2、7、14和28天取材、切片,使用巨噬细胞特异性抗体cD68进行免疫荧光染色,分析损伤神经段中内源性巨噬细胞(CD68+/EGFP-)、外源性巨噬细胞(CD68+/EGFP+)的数量及其比例变化情况。结果:①夹伤骨髓移植模型小鼠坐骨神经后,参与坐骨神经损伤修复的巨噬细胞可分为两类,即内源性巨噬细胞(CD68+/EGFP-)和外源性巨噬细胞(CD68+/EGFP+);②夹伤坐骨神经后,浸润的总巨噬细胞数量从第2天开始逐渐增加,到第14天达到高峰,约为正常情况下的60倍,随后逐渐减少;③起初外、内源性巨噬细胞间的比例是1:1,差值最大出现在损伤后第14天为4:l。结论:小鼠坐骨神经夹伤后,内外源性巨噬细胞共同参与了受损神经组织远心段的修复和再生过程,损伤初期发挥作用的主要是内源性巨噬细胞,随后大量浸润的外源性巨噬细胞占主导作用。本实验首次连续观察并定量分析了神经损伤后早期内源性和外源性巨噬细胞的数量改变,证实了瓦勒氏变性过程中内源性和外源性巨噬细胞在不同阶段对巨噬细胞总量的贡献作用。  相似文献

Safranal is one of the major components of saffron and has many biological effects such as antioxidant property. The present study investigated the effects of safranal on sciatic nerve function after induction of crush injury. We also used of vitamin E as a reference potent antioxidant agent.In anesthetized rats, right sciatic nerve was crushed using a small haemostatic forceps. Functional recovery was assessed using sciatic functional index (SFI). Acetone spray and von Frey filament tests were used for neuropathic pain assay. Histopathological changes including severities of Wallerian degeneration of sciatic nerve and gastrocnemius muscle atrophy were investigated by light microscopy. Blood levels of malodialdehyde (MDA) were also measured.The SFI values were accelerated, cold and mechanical allodynia were suppressed, the severities of Wallerian degeneration and muscular atrophy were improved, and the increased MDA level was reversed with 10 consecutive days intraperitoneal injections of 0.2 and 0.8 mg/kg of safranal and 100 mg/kg of vitamin E.It is concluded that safranal and vitamin E produced same improving effects on crushed-injured sciatic nerve functions. Inhibition of oxidative stress pathway may be involved in improving effects of safranal and vitamin E on functions and histopathology of an injured peripheral nerve.  相似文献

The Sciatic Functional Index (SFI) is widely used to evaluate functional recovery after sciatic nerve injury, primarily in the rat, and more recently shown useful in the mouse. This quantitative, non-invasive method allows tracking of regeneration capability, visible in the gait of the animal. Using a Martin micro needle holder, carrying a force measured to be 49.2 N, the left sciatic nerve was crushed for 60 s. We accumulated data from walking tracks collected preoperatively and 1, 7, 14, 21, and 28 days after injury. SFI values were first calculated in the traditional manner. Then using the preoperative values as the normal value in the postoperative calculations, SFI was again calculated; this isolated the calculations to either injured or contra lateral leg giving a “split” plot. The traditional SFI calculations resulted in typical shaped graphs for both rats and mice. However, the “split” SFI calculations showed how rats and mice differ in their recovery from sciatic nerve injury. The mouse graph shows the intact leg remaining stable and the injured leg having functional impairment, which then recovers. The rat graph showed functional impairment of the injured leg, however, the intact leg had an increase in SFI values as if to compensate until the injured leg showed recovery.  相似文献

With the development of tissue engineering and the shortage of autologous nerve grafts in nerve reconstruction, cell transplantation in a conduit is an alternative strategy to improve nerve regeneration. The present study evaluated the effects and mechanism of brain-derived neural stem cells (NSCs) on sciatic nerve injury in rats. At the transection of the sciatic nerve, a 10-mm gap between the nerve stumps was bridged with a silicon conduit filled with 5?×?105 NSCs. In control experiments, the conduit was filled with nerve growth factor (NGF) or normal saline (NS). The functional and morphological properties of regenerated nerves were investigated, and expression of hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) and NGF was measured. One week later, there was no connection through the conduit. Four or eight weeks later, fibrous connections were evident between the proximal and distal segments. Motor function was revealed by measurement of the sciatic functional index (SFI) and sciatic nerve conduction velocity (NCV). Functional recovery in the NSC and NGF groups was significantly more advanced than that in the NS group. NSCs showed significant improvement in axon myelination of the regenerated nerves. Expression of NGF and HGF in the injured sciatic nerve was significantly lower in the NS group than in the NSCs and NGF groups. These results and other advantages of NSCs, such as ease of harvest and relative abundance, suggest that NSCs could be used clinically to enhance peripheral nerve repair.  相似文献

Regeneration of the sciatic nerve was studied in rats pretreated in a pulsed electromagnetic field (PEMF). The rats were exposed between a pair of Helmholtz coils at a pulse repetition rate of 2 pps at a field density of 60 or 300 μT. The PEMF treatment was then discontinued. After an interval of recovery, regeneration of the sciatic nerve was initiated by a crush lesion. Regeneration of sensory fibers was measured by the “pinch test” after an additional 3–6 days. A variety of PEMF pretreatments including 4 h /day for 1–4 days or exposure for 15 min/day during 2 days resulted in an increased regeneration distance, measured 3 days after the crush lesion. This effect could be demonstrated even after a 14-day recovery period. In contrast, pretreatment for 4 h/day for 2 days at 60 μT did not affect the regeneration distance. The results showed that PEMF pretreatment conditioned the rat sciatic nerve in a manner similar to that which occurs after a crush lesion, which indicates that PEMF affects the neuronal cell body. However, the mechanism of this effect remains obscure. © 1993 Wiley-Liss, Inc.  相似文献

Pulsed magnetic fields (PMFs) have well‐known beneficial effects on nerve regeneration. However, little research has examined the nerve conduction characteristics of regenerating peripheral nerves under PMF. The main goal of this study was to examine the conduction characteristics of regenerating peripheral nerves under PMFs. The sucrose‐gap recording technique was used to examine the conduction properties of injured sciatic nerves of rats exposed to PMF. Following the injury, peripheral nerves were very sensitive to repetitive stimulation. When the stimulation frequency was increased, the amplitude of the compound action potential (CAP) decreased more at 15 days post‐crush injury (dpc) than at 38 dpc. PMF treatment for 38 days after injury caused significant differences in the conduction of CAPs. Moreover, application of PMF ameliorated the abnormal electrophysiological activities of nerves such as hyperpolarizing afterpotentials and delayed depolarizations that were revealed by 4‐aminopyridine (4‐AP). Consequently, characteristic findings in impulse conduction of recovered nerves under PMF indicate that the observed abnormalities in signaling or aberrant ion channel functions following injury may be restored by PMF application.

Factors involved in the outcome of regeneration of the saphenous nerve after a cut or crush lesion were studied in adult rats with electrophysiological recordings of low-threshold mechanoreceptor activity and plasma extravasation of Evans blue after electrical nerve stimulation that activated C fibers.

In the first series of experiments, saphenous and sciatic nerve section was combined with anastomosis of the transected proximal end of the saphenous nerve to the distal end of the cut tibial nerve. Regeneration of saphenous nerve fibers involved in plasma extravasation and low-threshold mechanoreceptor activity in the glabrous skin was observed 13 weeks after nerve anastomosis. Substance P-, calcitonin gene-related peptide-, and protein gene product 9.5 (PGP-9.5)-immunoreactive (IR) thin epidermal and dermal nerve endings, as well as coarse dermal PGP-9.5-IR nerve fibers and Meissner corpuscles and Merkel cell-neurite-like complexes, were observed in the reinnervated glabrous skin at this time.

In a second series of experiments, the time course of the regeneration of saphenous nerve axons to the permanently sciatic-nerve-denervated foot sole was examined. Saphenous-nerve-induced plasma extravasation and low-threshold mechanoreceptor activity in the saphenous nerve were found in the normal saphenous nerve territory 2, 3, 4, and 6 weeks after sciatic nerve cut combined with saphenous nerve crush in the left hindlimb. Saphenous-nerve-induced plasma extravasation was also present in the glabrous skin normally innervated by the sciatic nerve 3, 4, and 6 weeks after the sciatic cut/saphenous crush lesion. However, no low-threshold mechanoreceptor activity was detected in the saphenous nerve when the glabrous skin area was stimulated.

In a third series of experiments, the fate of the expansion of the saphenous nerve territory after saphenous nerve crush was examined when the crushed sciatic nerve had been allowed to regenerate. Nerve fibers involved in plasma extravasation were observed in the glabrous skin of the hindpaw after saphenous nerve, as well as after tibial nerve, C-fiber stimulation 3, 12, and 43 weeks after the saphenous crush/sciatic crush lesion.

Low-threshold mechanoreceptors from the regenerated saphenous nerve, which primarily innervates hairy skin, seem to be functional in the glabrous skin if the axons are guided by the transected tibial nerve by anastomosis. Furthermore, the results indicate that fibers from the regenerating saphenous nerve that have extended into denervated glabrous skin areas can exist even if sciatic nerve axons are allowed to grow back to their original territory.  相似文献

Alternative splicing (AS) regulates a variety of biological activities in numerous tissues and organs, including the nervous system. However, the existence and specific roles of AS events during peripheral nerve repair and regeneration remain largely undetermined. In the current study, by mapping splice-crossing sequence reads, we identified AS events and relevant spliced genes in rat sciatic nerve stumps following sciatic nerve crush. AS-related genes at 1, 4, 7, and 14 days post nerve crush were compared with those at 0 day to discover alternatively spliced genes induced by sciatic nerve crush. These injury-induced alternatively spliced genes were then categorized to diseases and biological functions, genetic networks, and canonical signaling pathways. Bioinformatic analysis indicated that these alternatively spliced genes were mainly correlated to immune response, cellular growth, and cellular function maintenance. Our study elucidated AS events following peripheral nerve injury and might help deepen our understanding of the molecular mechanisms underlying peripheral nerve regeneration.  相似文献

Hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) is a neurotrophic factor and its role in peripheral nerves has been relatively unknown. In this study, biological functions of HGF and its receptor c-met have been investigated in the context of regeneration of damaged peripheral nerves. Axotomy of the peripheral branch of sensory neurons from embryonic dorsal root ganglia (DRG) resulted in the increased protein levels of HGF and phosphorylated c-met. When the neuronal cultures were treated with a pharmacological inhibitor of c-met, PHA665752, the length of axotomy-induced outgrowth of neurite was significantly reduced. On the other hand, the addition of recombinant HGF proteins to the neuronal culture facilitated axon outgrowth. In the nerve crush mouse model, the protein level of HGF was increased around the injury site by almost 5.5-fold at 24 h post injury compared to control mice and was maintained at elevated levels for another 6 days. The amount of phosphorylated c-met receptor in sciatic nerve was also observed to be higher than control mice. When PHA665752 was locally applied to the injury site of sciatic nerve, axon outgrowth and injury mediated induction of cJun protein were effectively inhibited, indicating the functional involvement of HGF/c-met pathway in the nerve regeneration process. When extra HGF was exogenously provided by intramuscular injection of plasmid DNA expressing HGF, axon outgrowth from damaged sciatic nerve and cJun expression level were enhanced. Taken together, these results suggested that HGF/c-met pathway plays important roles in axon outgrowth by directly interacting with sensory neurons and thus HGF might be a useful tool for developing therapeutics for peripheral neuropathy.  相似文献

Left sciatic nerves of adult male Sprague-Dawley rats were crushed and allowed to recover for 0, 1, 2, 4, 7, or 14 days. At each of these times both L-5 dorsal root ganglia were injected with 100 microCi of [3H]glucosamine. Two days later, dorsal root ganglia, lumbosacral trunks, and sciatic nerves were removed bilaterally. The amounts of radiolabelled ganglioside in crushed lumbosacral trunks were consistently higher than in the controls, with the largest difference occurring within 2 days from simultaneous crush and injection to killing (specimens labelled day 0). The largest difference in the amount of radiolabelled ganglioside between crushed and control sciatic nerve (4-9 days from crush to killing) occurred later than that of lumbosacral trunk, but no significant difference occurred within the first 3 days following crush. There was only a slightly higher radioactivity in gangliosides totalled from all three anatomical specimens of crushed than in control nerves. The neutral nonganglioside lipid and acid-precipitable fraction followed patterns of synthesis and accumulation similar to those of the gangliosides. These findings indicate that after nerve crush gangliosides, glucosamine-labelled neutral nonganglioside lipids, and glycoproteins accumulate close to the proximal end of the regenerating axon. This accumulation could serve as a reservoir to increase the ganglioside concentration in the growth cone membrane.  相似文献

坐骨神经损伤是临床常见的周围神经疾病。神经损伤后再生肌肉和运动神经元会出现各种功能障碍,虽然其中一部分因素已被阐明,但多局限于受损神经局部,而对于再生后脊髓运动神经元的回返性抑制(recurrent inhibition,RI)通路的功能变化却很少被报道。本文研究大鼠短暂坐骨神经损伤后,恢复神经再支配(reinnervation)情况下,脊髓RI通路的功能变化。在正常或坐骨神经挤压(crush)受损后的成年大鼠上,通过刺激离断的脊髓背根(L5),在外侧腓肠肌-比目鱼肌(lateral gas-trocnemius-soleus,LG-S)神经或内侧腓肠肌(medial gastrocnemius,MG)神经记录单突触反射(monosynaptic reflex,MSR),并同时在另一神经给予条件性刺激,以检测LG-S和MG运动神经元间RI的变化。结果显示:(1)脊髓运动神经元的RI在坐骨神经挤压受损后即基本丢失(<5周),至损伤6周后部分恢复至正常的50%,并至少维持至损伤14周后;(2)一侧的坐骨神经损伤对对侧的RI没有影响;(3)外周神经损伤后,免疫组织化学方法显示脊髓运动神经元数目本身并不发生减少。以上...  相似文献

A major problem hindering the development of autograft alternatives for repairing peripheral nerve injuries is immunogenicity. We have previously shown successful regeneration in transected rat sciatic nerves using conduits filled with allogeneic dorsal root ganglion (DRG) cells without any immunosuppression. In this study, we re-examined the immunogenicity of our DRG neuron implanted conduits as a potential strategy to overcome transplant rejection. A biodegradable NeuraGen® tube was infused with pure DRG neurons or Schwann cells cultured from a rat strain differing from the host rats and used to repair 8 mm gaps in the sciatic nerve. We observed enhanced regeneration with allogeneic cells compared to empty conduits 16 weeks post-surgery, but morphological analyses suggest recovery comparable to the healthy nerves was not achieved. The degree of regeneration was indistinguishable between DRG and Schwann cell allografts although immunogenicity assessments revealed substantially increased presence of Interferon gamma (IFN-γ) in Schwann cell allografts compared to the DRG allografts by two weeks post-surgery. Macrophage infiltration of the regenerated nerve graft in the DRG group 16 weeks post-surgery was below the level of the empty conduit (0.56 fold change from NG; p<0.05) while the Schwann cell group revealed significantly higher counts (1.29 fold change from NG; p<0.001). Major histocompatibility complex I (MHC I) molecules were present in significantly increased levels in the DRG and Schwann cell allograft groups compared to the hollow NG conduit and the Sham healthy nerve. Our results confirmed previous studies that have reported Schwann cells as being immunogenic, likely due to MHC I expression. Nerve gap injuries are difficult to repair; our data suggest that DRG neurons are superior medium to implant inside conduit tubes due to reduced immunogenicity and represent a potential treatment strategy that could be preferable to the current gold standard of autologous nerve transplant.  相似文献

Levels of enolase isozymes (alpha alpha, alpha gamma, and gamma gamma forms) and S-100 protein in rat sciatic nerves were determined during their degeneration and regeneration processes. The sciatic nerves were unilaterally crushed or severed. The rats were killed 1, 2, 6, and 8-9 weeks later, and both the proximal and distal portions of the damaged nerves were dissected. Control samples were obtained from the untreated contralateral hindlimbs. Enolase isozymes and S-100 protein in the nerve segments were determined with the enzyme immunoassay method. The control nerves contained about 40, 90, and 30 pmol/mg protein of alpha alpha, alpha gamma, and gamma gamma enolases, respectively, and 0.85 microgram/mg protein of S-100 protein. These levels were not affected by repetitive electrical stimulation of the nerve fibers in vivo. The levels of the nervous system-specific forms of enolase (alpha gamma and gamma gamma) and S-100 protein decreased markedly within a week in the distal portion of the crushed nerve (alpha gamma, 27 pmol/mg; gamma gamma, 5.5 pmol/mg; S-100 protein, 0.36 microgram/mg) with apparently no change in the concentration of alpha alpha enolase. These levels in the proximal portion of the crushed nerve remained unaltered. The sensory and motor functions impaired by the sciatic nerve crush showed a recovery more or less after 4-9 weeks. This recovery was accompanied by a gradual regaining of the specific proteins in the distal portion of injured nerves (alpha gamma, 64 pmol/mg; gamma gamma, 13 pmol/mg; S-100 protein, 0.63 microgram/mg at the 8-9th week).  相似文献
