摘要
背景:研究发现,在骨关节炎(OA)发展过程中,异常的H型血管形成与软骨下骨重塑密切相关。在此,我们研究了成骨细胞分泌的裂隙引导配体 3(Slit3)在 OA 发展过程中 H 型血管形成中的作用和机制:方法:检测 OA 患者软骨下骨样本中的 Slit3 蛋白水平。方法:检测 OA 患者软骨下骨样本中 Slit3 蛋白水平,用 Slit3 过表达或敲除质粒转染分离出的成骨细胞,并将其条件培养基与内皮祖细胞(EPCs)一起培养。研究人员检测了EPCs的迁移、管形成、血管内皮生长因子(VEGF)、H型血管标志蛋白CD31和内黏蛋白(EMCN)的水平。通过 Co-IP 分析验证了 Slit3 与迂回(Robo)家族成员之间的相互作用。此外,还测定了 Slit3/Robo 信号是否影响转化生长因子 β1(TGF-β1)/SMADs 通路。此外,将 sh-Slit3 注射到 OA 小鼠体内,然后检测关节软骨降解、软骨下骨重塑和 H 型血管形成的情况:结果:Slit3在OA患者软骨下骨组织中上调。Slit3在成骨细胞中的过表达增强了EPCs的迁移和H型血管的形成,而Slit3的敲除则显示出相反的结果。Slit3过表达可提高Robo1蛋白水平。敲除Robo1会减弱Slit3介导的EPCs迁移和H型血管形成。Slit3激活了EPCs中的TGF-β1/SMADs通路,这可能与EPCs中H型血管的形成有关。此外,沉默Slit3可抑制OA小鼠的关节软骨退化、软骨下骨异常形成和H型血管形成:结论:抑制 Slit3/Robo1 信号传导可减少软骨下骨中异常 H 型血管的形成,从而缓解小鼠的骨关节炎。
Inhibition of Slit3/Robo1 signaling alleviates osteoarthritis in mice by reducing abnormal H-type vessel formation in subchondral bone.
Background: The aberrant H-type vessel formation was found to be intimately linked to subchondral bone remodeling during osteoarthritis (OA) development. Herein, we investigated the role and mechanism of osteoblast-secreted slit guidance ligand 3 (Slit3) in H-type vessel formation during OA progression.
Methods: Slit3 protein levels in subchondral bone samples of OA patients were detected. The isolated osteoblasts were transfected with Slit3 overexpression or knockdown plasmids, and their conditioned medium was cultured with endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs). The migration, tube formation, VEGF, and H-type vessel marker protein CD31 and endomucin (EMCN) levels in EPCs were accessed. The interactions between Slit3 and roundabout (Robo) family members were validated by Co-IP assay. Besides, whether the Slit3/Robo signaling affects the transforming growth factor β1 (TGF-β1)/SMADs pathway was determined. Additionally, sh-Slit3 was injected into OA mice, followed by the detection of articular cartilage degradation, subchondral bone remodeling, and H-type vessel formation.
Results: Slit3 was upregulated in subchondral bone tissues of OA patients. Slit3 overexpression in osteoblasts intensified the migration and H-type vessel formation of EPCs, while Slit3 knockdown showed the opposite results. Slit3 overexpression enhanced Robo1 protein level. Robo1 knockdown abrogated Slit3-mediated migration and H-type vessel formation in EPCs. Slit3 activated the TGF-β1/SMADs pathway in EPCs, which might be associated with H-type vessel formation in EPCs. Additionally, Slit3 silencing restrained articular cartilage degradation, aberrant subchondral bone formation, and H-type vessel formation in OA mice.
Conclusion: Inhibition of Slit3/Robo1 signaling alleviates osteoarthritis in mice by reducing abnormal H-type vessel formation in the subchondral bone.
期刊介绍:
The journal Immunopharmacology and Immunotoxicology is devoted to pre-clinical and clinical drug discovery and development targeting the immune system. Research related to the immunoregulatory effects of various compounds, including small-molecule drugs and biologics, on immunocompetent cells and immune responses, as well as the immunotoxicity exerted by xenobiotics and drugs. Only research that describe the mechanisms of specific compounds (not extracts) is of interest to the journal.
The journal will prioritise preclinical and clinical studies on immunotherapy of disorders such as chronic inflammation, allergy, autoimmunity, cancer etc. The effects of small-drugs, vaccines and biologics against central immunological targets as well as cell-based therapy, including dendritic cell therapy, T cell adoptive transfer and stem cell therapy, are topics of particular interest. Publications pointing towards potential new drug targets within the immune system or novel technology for immunopharmacological drug development are also welcome.
With an immunoscience focus on drug development, immunotherapy and toxicology, the journal will cover areas such as infection, allergy, inflammation, tumor immunology, degenerative disorders, immunodeficiencies, neurology, atherosclerosis and more.
Immunopharmacology and Immunotoxicology will accept original manuscripts, brief communications, commentaries, mini-reviews, reviews, clinical trials and clinical cases, on the condition that the results reported are based on original, clinical, or basic research that has not been published elsewhere in any journal in any language (except in abstract form relating to paper communicated to scientific meetings and symposiums).
