摘要
研究背景和目的
     严重创伤、感染、肿瘤等原因所致的骨缺损是临床常见的疑难问题,骨组织工程被认为是修复骨缺损的理想方法,在将来的临床中具有广阔的应用前景。种子细胞作为骨组织工程的最重要环节之一,近年来进行了大量的研究,一般认为,理想的骨组织工程种子细胞需要满足三个基本条件:①可靠的细胞来源,取材方便,易于体外扩增;②具有特定的分化表型或定向分化潜能;③能够适应受区环境,组织相容性好,不引发移植排斥反应。目前可用于骨组织工程的种子细胞主要包括:成骨细胞,胚胎干细胞和骨髓间充质干细胞。其中成骨细胞是成体终末细胞,增殖潜能有限,来源困难。胚胎干细胞则受到伦理学的限制,成骨分化的调控机制也较为复杂。骨髓间充质干细胞(MSCs)具有多向分化潜能和自我更新能力,易于取材和体外培养扩增,可进行自体移植等特有的生物学特性,因而被组织工程领域视为最佳的种子细胞。并且在自体移植修复骨缺损动物模型和异基因移植修复免疫缺陷动物骨缺损模型实验中取得了良好的效果。
     但深入的研究表明,hMSCs作为种子细胞的临床应用依然面临着许多需要解决的问题。例如MSCs的多向分化机制及其调控,MSCs与移植受体之间的相互作用,表型鉴定和自体移植细胞数量不足等问题。其中自体移植来源不足是限制临床应用的最为突出的问题。这是由于大段骨缺损的修复需要大量种子细胞,而hMSCs在骨髓中含量很少,只占骨髓中单个核细胞的0.01—0.001%,并随着年龄的增长逐渐减少,体外培养扩增平均只有38PD(population doublings),并且难以在短时间内大量扩增。解决这一问题的主要途径应包括两个方面:一是增强hMSCs的增殖活力,二是应用异体或异种MSCs。
     端粒是染色体末端串连、重复的TTAGGG序列,在正常细胞分裂过程中会逐渐变短。当端粒在一个或多个染色体中缩短到某一极限值时,细胞衰老和生长停止就发生了。端粒的长度是由端粒酶维持的。端粒酶逆转录酶(hTERT)是端粒酶的一个接触反应亚单位,大量实验表明,外源性hTERT基因导入细胞可提高端粒酶活性,延缓细胞的衰老Simonsen JL等将hTERT转入hMSCs筛选到的hMSCs-T细胞克隆在体外培养200PD以上,细胞未发现明显的衰老现象、保持了多向分化潜能并没有致瘤倾向。这说明用hTERT基因转染修饰hMSCs可以达到延长hMSCs生命周期、保持多向分化潜能的目的。
     尽管近年来研究表明hMSCs免疫源性较低,但hMSCs并非完全的免疫赦免细胞,异基因移植必然要面临免疫排斥问题。免疫抑制剂的应用已经使组织器官移植取得了巨大的进步,但因全身免疫功能降低,导致肿瘤和严重感染的问题难以克服。新型免疫调节分子CTLA-4Ig通过阻断抗原特异性T细胞活化过程起重要作用的B7-CD28共刺激通路,可诱导特异性免疫耐受。近年研究表明,CTLA-4Ig的全身应用和局部基因导入在器官移植中均取得了良好的效果。本课题组前期研究曾经用逆转录病毒载体介导CTLA-4Ig基因转染hMSCs,被修饰细胞及其分化后代能够持续分泌CTLA-4Ig蛋白,保持了体外培养分化成骨能力,而且在异种动物体内能够成骨。
     逆转录病毒载体介导的基因转染能够将外源基因整合到细胞基因组中并传向子代,使目的蛋白得以持续表达。对于细胞基因改造,筛选获得新细胞株和某些疾病的基因治疗是一种理想的转染方式,但CTLA-4Ig在体内的长期持续表达也可能带来对全身免疫功能的不利影响。而腺病毒是一种安全,高效的转染方式,目的基因只在被转染细胞本身短暂表达。而组织工程种子细胞只须在细胞移植入体内早期的一定时间内表达CTLA-4Ig,诱导特异性免疫耐受即可达到降低免疫排斥反应的目的。
     因此,本课题拟应用逆转录病毒将hTERT基因导入hMSCs,以筛选获得hTERT—hMSCs细胞克隆或细胞群;然后再通过腺病毒介导CTLA4Ig基因转染hTERT—hMSCs细胞。以期获得保持成骨分化潜能,体外培养具有旺盛的增殖活力,能够在异基因移植受体移植局部表达分泌CTLA4Ig蛋白,诱导特异性免疫耐受的组织工程种子细胞。

Background:
     Massive bone defect,caused by severe trauma,infection,tumor and such diseases like these,is a very common but difficult clinical work,and now engineering bone tissue is considered to be a promising method to treat this problem,which will be of great value in future clinic research.As one of the most crucial part of engineering bone tissue,seed cells have been widely studied in recent years.Generally,proper seed cells for engineering bone tissue should meet following demands:First,having reliable and convenient cell source and facilitating expansion in vitro;Second,bearing specific differentiation phenotype or oriented differentiation potential;Third,having favorable histocompatibility with recipient and not inducing transplantation rejection.Up to now,osteoblasts,embryonic stem cells and bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells(MSCs) are three available candidates for engineering bone tissue,in which osteoblasts and embryonic stem cells are not very satisfying.Osteoblasts,as adult terminal cells have limited proliferation potential and scarce sources.Due to some ethnical reasons and complicated regulatory mechanism of osteogenesis,embryonic stem cells are excluded as well.Compared with the other two cells, MSCs,which own multi-oitented differentiative potential and self-renewal capability,have convenient sources and can expand in vitro cell culture,is regarded as the optimal seed cell of engineering bone tissue.What's more,in both normal animal models of autotransplantation and immunodeficient animal models of allotransplantation,MSCs were proved to be effective to repair bone defects.
     However,further researches indicate that,to be applied in clinic as the seed cell, hMSCs still have a long way to go.For example,there are problems such as how to control their multi-oriented differentation,the interaction between hMSCs and recipients, phenotype identification and the insufficient cell number of autotransplantation,among which,the insufficient cell number is the main problem which limits their application in clinic.This is because that massive bone defects require massive seed cells,while hMSCs only account for 0.01—0.001%of mononuclear cells in bone marrow,and what's worse, they will decreases with age,expansion in vitro culture is only 38PD(population doublings)on average and they are hard to expand in a short time.The feasible solution comprises of two aspects:one is to enhance the proliferation activity of MSCs,the other is to apply allogeneic or xenogeneic MSCs.
     As we know,telomere is a clustered and repeated TTAGGG sequence in chromosome ends,which will gradually shorten during cell division.When telomere in one or more chromosomes is shorten to its extreme,cell senescence and growth stop will occur.The length of telomere is sustained by telomerase and human telomerase reverse transcriptase (hTERT) is contact reaction of subunit of telomerase.Some researchers reported that ectopic expression of hTERT in MSCs could extend their life-span and maintain their osteogenic potential.Simonsen JLetc.transferred hTERT into hMSCs and obtained hMSCs-T cell clone which showed no obvious senescent phenomena,maintained multipotential differentiation,had no tendency to cause tumor after more than 200PD in vitro culture,which indicated hMSCs with hTERT transgene could prolong their life span and maintain multi-differential potential.
     Although recent studys indicate that MSCs are low hypoimmunogenic,they are not completely immune privileged cells,So allogenic MSCs transplantation still faces immune rejection problem.Tissue and organ transplantations have made great progress with the application of immunosuppressive drugs,but immunosuppressive drugs would decrease the immune function and lead to tumor and severe infection.As we know,there is no method that can induce donor specific,complete and permanent immune tolerance.Among numerous studies of immune tolerance,CTLA4 is one of the most important focus points. CTLA4 can bond B7 molecule on APC competitively with CD28 and block the B7-CD28 costimulatory pathway,which inhibits T cell full-activation and induces T cell anergy, apoptosis or clone deletion,resulting in immune tolerance.CTLA4Ig,a fusion protein of CTLA4 extracellular domain and partial segment of IgG- Fc,has the same function with CTLA4.Our previous study has modified MSCs with CTLA4Ig gene and screend out transfected cells.The modified MSCs can secrete CTLA4Ig protein to induce immune tolerance,which has been demonstrated in rat model.Thingking about security and graft requisition,adenovirus vector is safe and has efficient infectivity,we design to transfer CTLA4Ig gene by adenovirus vector in this study.

     13.Osteogenesis of engineering bone tissue in radius defect of rabbits was observed by X-ray on designed time points(i.e.,2-days,2,4,8,12weeks post-surgery).
     Results:
     1.Like fibrocyte,cultured primary hMSCs showed an atractoid or triangular shape and arrayed in whirpool.FACS detection indicated that 90.8%of isolated cells expressed CD105 and 96.2%were CD34 negetive.
     2.Plasmid pGRN145 was cut into a 11.5kb vecter fragment and a 3.5kb hTERT target fragment,Plasmid pLXSN was cut into a 5.9kb linear fragment by EcoR I resPectively. Then we gained recombinant plasmid pLXSN—hTERT by ligating hTERT and pLXSN. DNA sequencing illustrated that 3402 bases of recombinant plasmid pLXSN—hTERT matched with 3402 bases of hTERT sequence of gene bank.The matching rate was 100%.
     3.We used recombinant plasmid pLXSN—hTERT to transfect PT67 cells and obtained hTERT—PT67 package cells after G418 resistant screening.The virus tilter of cell culture supernatant was 1.2×10~4.
     4.After 5 days coculture of pLXSN—hTERT—PT67 package cells and hMSCs and 30 days G418 resistant screening,the survival cells were named hTERT-hMSCs.The cells didn't show obvious cell shape change when they were cultured to 46~(th) passage.
     5.Immunocytochemical stain of hTERT showed that both hTERT-hMSCs and hMSCs expressed hTERT protein in cell nucleus.The whole nucleus of hTERT-hMSCs was deeply stained,and the positive staining of hTERT-hMSCs was 99%while hMSCs was 65%under 10times highpower field.
     6.Telomerase activity detection indicated that compared with untransfected hMSCs, hMSCs with hTERT transgene had stronger telomerase activity.
     7.48hours after AdvCTLA4Ig-EGFP infecting hMSCs and 24 hours after AdvCTLA4Ig-EGFP infecting hTERT—hMSCs,we observed that both a few hMSCs and hTERT—hMSCs expressed green fluorescence,and the cell number gradually increased. The expression peak of green fluorescent protein in both cells was at the fifth day,and the green fluorescence began to decrease at the 28th day.Flow cytometry indicated that the infection rate of hMSCs was 81.14%,while hTERT-hMSCs was 83.75%.
     8.Immunocytochemistry detection demonstrated that most of CTLA4Ig-hMSCs and CTLA4Ig-hTERT-hMSCs positively expressed CTLA4Ig in cytoplasm,especially around nucleus,hMSCs that expressed hTERT were small,long spindleshape while hMSCs that negatively expressed hTERT were mainly large,flat shape.Western blotting indicated that CTLA4Ig protein existed in culture solution of both CTLA4Ig-hMSCs and CTLA4Ig-hTERT-hMSCs.
     9.We observed that most of hMSCs,CTLA4Ig-hMSCs,hTERT-hMSCs and CTLA4Ig-hTERT-hMSCs were long spindle—shaped and a few were triangular,hMSCs gradually became wide and short along with passage,and the growth velocity slowed down, while hTERT-hMSCs remained long spindle—shaped and the growth velocity changed little.The shape of CTLA4Ig-hMSCs and CTLA4Ig-hTERT-hMSCs showed little change before and after CTLA4Ig transfection,however,the growth velocity slowed down.
     10.Detection of cell cycle
     1-12 passage hMSCs in G0/G1 phase increased while in G2/M and S phase decreased gradually,and statistical analysis showed significant difference,which indicated that proliferative capability of hMSCs weakened gradually.1-18 passage hTERT—hMSCs showed similar change tendency but statistical analysis showed insignificant difference, which suggested that proliferative capability of hTERT-hMSCs changed little accompanying passage.Statistical analysis demonstrated that hTERT—hMSCs had higher proliferative capability than hMSCs did.
     Cell cycle comparison between hMSCs and CTLA4Ig-hMSCs,and comparison hTERT-hMSCs and CTLA4Ig-hTERT-hMSCs indicated that CTLA4 gene transfection could slow down cell proliferation
     All of hMSCs,CTLA4Ig-hMSCs,hTERT-hMSCs and CTLA4Ig-hTERT-hMSCs were diploid cells.
     11.During the course of osteogenesis in vito,the shape and growth speed of CTLA4Ig-hMSCs and CTLA4Ig -hTERT-hMSCs changed little in the first 2 week;then the cells became wide and short,cells with polygonal shape increased,and the cells had the tendency to cluster together.During 3 to 4 weeks,most of cells were polygonal and clustered.Calcareous infarct could be detected by tetracycline dying in cell clump;AKP dying was strong positive;the expression of osteocalcin could be detected by immunocytochemistry.
     12.In our experiment,there were about 5×10~5 cells attached to per gram DBM.
     13.CTLA4Ig-hMSCs xenotransplantation
     Low density vague shadow in bone defect could be seen 2 weeks and 4 weeks post-surgery in group treated with DBM+CTLA4Ig-hMSCs under X-ray;at 8 weeks,the shadow was high-density,similar with bone tissue;at 12 weeks,the bone defect was completely ossified,and medullary cavity was recanalized.Compared with group treated with DBM+CTLA4Ig-hMSCs,in group treated with DBM+MSCs,similar shadow appeared in the first 4 weeks,but at 8 weeks,the shadow density was apparently lower than the former;the bone defect didn't heal completely at 12 weeks.Group treated with DMB showed vague shadow early,but the shadow disappeared gradually.During the observation, bone defects diminished in both group treated with DBM and blank group,but obvious bone defects still remained 12 weeks post-surgery.
     Conclusions:
     1.We successfully constructed recombinant retroviral expression vector-pLXSN—hTERT.
     2.We obtained package cell lineage hTERT—PT67 which has the ability to produce hTERT recombinant retrovirus.
     3.Compared with hMSCs,hTERT—hMSCs show stronger telomerase activity,higher proliferative capability and longer life-span..
     4.Expression and secretion of CTLA4Ig protein could be detected in both CTLA4Ig-hMSCs and CTLA4Ig-hTERT-hMSCs,which last more than 4 weeks.
     5.The times of population doublings could be prolonged and growth speed slowed after hMSCs and hTERT—hMSCs had been modified by adenovirus mediated-CTLA4 gene transfection
     6.Both hTERT-hMSCs and CTLA4Ig-hTERT-hMSCs could be induced to differentiate into osteoblast in vitro,which indicates that adenovirus mediated-CTLA4 gene transfection don't alter hMSCs' osteogenesis potential.
     7.CTLA4Ig-hMSCs have better ostogenesis effects than hMSCs as seed cells for engineering bone tissue on xenotransplantation animals.The ostogenesis effects of CTLA4Ig -hTERT-hMSCs on xenotransplantation animals need further studying.
