ABSTRACTS
Aim: To investigate the survival of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) and the therapeutic effect for acute myocardial infarction (AMI) after co-transplantation with the functionalized self-assembling peptide nanofiber RAD/PRG or RAD/KLT. Methods: AMI of balb/c mice was induced. Mice were randomly divided into four groups, and received treatment of phosphate buffered saline (PBS) (Group A), GFP/Fluc-BMSCs (Group B), GFP/Fluc-BMSCs + RAD/PRG (Group C), and GFP/Fluc-BMSCs + RAD/KLT (Group D), respectively. Bioluminescence imaging (BLI) was performed on day 1 (d-1), d-4, d-7, d-10, and d-13 after transplantation. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) was performed at baseline (d-4 before transplantation) and d-29 after treatment. Mice were euthanized on d-29 following treatment. Paraffin sections were obtained from the top, mid and bottom part of the infarcted region along the long-axis of the heart. Hematoxylin and eosin (HE) staining and immunohistochemical staining were performed. The infarct ratio micro-vascular density (MVD) was quantified. Results: There was a significant higher of BLI signal intensity of BMSCs in Group C than that in Group B (d-4, 9713±320 vs. 8164±378, P=0.0008; d-7, 6489±241 vs. 5417±361, P=0.0026; d-10, 3768±255 vs. 0, P < 0.0001). The left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) via MRI examination was significantly improved in both Group C and Group D. Infarct ratio and MVD were significantly improved in both Group C and Group D. Conclusion: Our data highlights BMSCs combining functionalized self-assembling peptide nanofibers RAD/PRG or RAD/KLT as promising therapy for AMI.

The therapeutic effect of anti-CD52 treatment in murine experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis is associated with altered IL-33 and ST2 expression levels

文献作者:Mark Barbour, Rachel Wood, Shehla U.Hridi, Chelsey Wilson, Grant McKay, Trevor J.Bushell, Hui-Rong Jiang   《Journal of Neuroimmunology》 ABSTRACTS Experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis  (EAE) mice were administered with murine anti-CD52  antibody  to investigate its therapeutic effect and whether the treatment modulates IL-33 and ST2 expression. EAE severity and  central nervous system  (CNS) inflammation were reduced following the treatment, which was accompanied by peripheral  T and B lymphocyte  depletion and reduced production of various  cytokines  including IL-33, while sST2 was increased. In spinal cords of EAE mice, while the number of IL-33 +  cells remained unchanged, the extracellular level of IL-33 protein was significantly reduced in anti-CD52 antibody treated mice compared with controls. Furthermore the number of ST2 +  cells in the spinal cord of treated EAE mice was  downregulated ...
