Abstract:
Objective To explore the therapeutic potential and mechanism of stem cells mobilized by granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF) and AMD3100 to repair global cerebral ischemia injuries in a rat model of cardiac arrest (CA) and cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR).Methods Cardiac arrest was induced by asphyxia.Fifty-six SD rats were randomly assigned into four groups:G-CSF group,G-CSF + AMD3100 group,CPR control group and sham operated group.The animals were sacrificed at 3d and 6d after CPR respectively.The neurological status and morphological changes of damaged cerebrum,the apoptosis of nerve cells and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) expressed in brain tissue and capillary density in hippocampus and temporal lobe cortex were measured and analyzed by means of neurological deficit score (NDS),adhesive tape removal test (TRT),ELISA,MRI and immunofluorescence.Results NDS in G-CSF + AMD3100 group (61.4 ± 10.7) was significantly higher than that in CPR control group (49.9 ± 10.4) at 3 d after CPR (P ＜0.05).And less time consumption for TRT found in G-CSF + AMD3100 group (85.5 ±28.9) s rather than was in CPR control group (148.1 ± 23.8) s and G-CSF group (118.5 ± 30.4) s (P ＜ 0.05).The severity of cerebral injury assessed by MRI was significantly milder at both 3 d and 6 d in the two stem cell mobilization groups.The apoptosis rate of nerve cells in G-CSF + AMD3100 group (0.23 ± 0.06) was significantly lower than that in G-CSF group (0.34 ±0.08) at 3 d after CPR,and that in both stem cell mobilization groups was lower than that in CPR control group (0.44 ± 0.09) (P ＜ 0.05).At 3 d and 6 d after CPR,the levels of VEGF in brain tissue were (106.2 ±23.3) pg/mL and (79.9 ± 18.4) pg/mL in G-CSF + AMD3100 group,and were (50.6 ± 13.7) pg/mL and (73.9 ± 16.6) pg/mL in G-CSF group,which were both significantly higher than that in CPR control group (23.1 ± 10.2) pg/mL and (36.2 ± 12.8) pg/mL (P ＜0.05).At 3 d after CPR,the cerebral capillary density (351.8 ±67.9) branches in every high power field (A/HPF) was significantly higher in G-CSF + AMD3100 group than that (301.4 ± 77.3) A/HPF in G-CSF group and (250.4 ± 48.0) A/HPF in CPR control group (P ＜ 0.05).The cerebral capillary density in G-CSF group elevated to (348.4 ±76.7) A/HPF at 6 d after CPR which was significantly higher than that at 3 d (P ＜0.05),and there was no difference between that at 3 d and 6 d in G-CSF + AMD3100 group.Conclusions The mobilization stem cells improve the impaired neurological function.The increased expression of VEGF in brain tissue,the neo-vascularization promoted by the mobilized stem cells and the inhibition of nerve cell apoptosis may be associated with the protective effects of the stem cell mobilization.
