Abstract:
Objective To investigate the immune modulation effect of lymphocytes co-cultured with human cord blood derived-multipotent stem cells(CB-SCs) and to explore their therapeutic potential for Alzheimer's Disease (AD) model mice.Methods CB-SCs were isolated from human cord blood.Lymphocytes were isolated from spleens of AD model mice.The lymphocytes were co-cultured with CB-SCs or cultured alone for 72 h.AD model mice were divided into experimental group and control group randomly,and then the experimental group mice were administrated with lymphocytes co-cultured with CB-SCs and control group were administrated with lymphocytes cultured alone by caudal vein injection.Then,the behavior experiment was carried out.The CD4+CD25+Foxp3+Tregswere detected by flow cytometry.The protein expression of TNF-αand IL-10 in peripheral blood was detected by ELISA,The mRNA expression of TNF-α and IL-10 in brain tissue was detected by PCR.The amyloid-β(Aβ)plaques were detected by immunohistochemistry.Results 1)There was spatial learning and memory improvement on experimental group.2)The Aβ plaques of experimental group decreased.3)The percentage of CD4+CD25+Foxp3+Tregs in peripheral blood and IL-10 level in plasma were higher in experimental group(P<0.05).The pro-inflammatory cytokines,TNF-α level in plasma of experimental group was lower than that in the control group(P<0.001).4)The mRNA expression of IL-10 in brain was higher in experimental group as compared to those in the control group(P<0.05),and the mRNA expression of TNF-α of experimental group was lower than that in the control group(P<0.05).Conclusions The lymphocytes co-cultured with CB-SCs have immunotherapeutic effect in AD model mice,which is mainly displayed with increased proportion of Tregs and enhanced anti-inflammatory function of Tregs.
