Abstract:
Objective:To explore effects of allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) in combination with infusion of endothelial progenitor cells (EPC) on bone marrow inflammatory injury.
Methods:6-8 weeks BALB/c (H-2Kd) mice after lethal dose of irradiation (TBI) were subjected to allogeneic bone marrow transplantation (BMT group) or co-transplantation of EPC (EPC group) . Samples of bone marrow cells of mice in each group on days 7,14,21,28 after transplantation were obtained to detect EPC cultural and cell chimeric rates by flow cytometer. Mice were sacrificed on days 7, 14, 21 and 28 post HSCT to analyze bone marrow pathology by H&E staining, the infiltration of macrophages and neutrophils by Western blot, validation expression levels of inflammatory complexes nlrp1、nlrp6 and its downstream molecules casepase-1 by Q-PCR and Western blot.
Results:Cell chimeric rate on day 7 after transplantation in EPC group[ (91.65±2.77) %] was significantly higher than in BMT group[ (83.69±1.26) %]. Alleviated osteomyelitis injury and inflammatory cell infiltration in EPC group were observed when compared with BMT mice. Also significant reductions of the levels of nlrp1、nlrp6、casepase-1 transcription complexes in EPC mice were noted when compared with BMT ones.
Conclusion:Co-transplantation of HSC and EPC could alleviate inflammatory cell infiltration and activation of the complex to promote the repair of bone marrow.
