摘要
目的:脊髓空洞症是缓慢进展的退行性疾病,迄今为止
对其形成机理尚不完全清楚。脊髓空洞前状态是近几年在研
究脊髓空洞症发病机制中提出的一个新的概念,由于它反映
了脊髓空洞症发病的早期表现,而且可以被逆转,所以对脊
髓空洞症的预防和治疗具有重要意义。
我们先前实验显示,脊髓空洞前状态的病理变化主要为
缺血水肿样改变。这种水肿为血管源性水肿,主要与血管内
皮通透性增加和血脑脊液脊髓屏障的损害有关。基质金属蛋
白酶-9(matrix metalloproteinase 9,MMP-9)可以降解Ⅳ型,
Ⅴ型胶原,纤维连接蛋白,弹性蛋白和变性后的基质胶原,
内皮细胞间的紧密连接以及构成血脑脊液脊髓屏障的主要
成分基质层,故它可以破坏血管内皮和血脑脊液脊髓屏障使
二者通透性增加,造成血管源性水肿。本实验拟通过观察家
兔脊髓空洞症模型的空洞形成前期脊髓的组织学变化,测定
脊髓含水量,应用 western blot 和免疫组织化学方法对
MMP-9 的表达进行研究,并应用 Doxycycline 进行干预治疗
旨在探讨 MMP-9 在脊髓空洞前状态形成中的作用,为临床
防治脊髓空洞症提供理论依据。
方法:将 96 只健康、体重 1.5-2kg 的中国白兔,随机
分为四组,其中 Kaolin 组 30 只,Doxycycline 治疗组 30 只,
生理盐水组 30 只和正常对照组 6 只。家兔在氯胺酮
(30mg/kg)耳缘静脉麻醉,氯丙嗪(30mg/kg)肌注辅助

objective: Syringomyelia is a kind of chronic disease.It's
mechanism is still incompletely clear, and for this reason the
cause of disease become the focus to dispute. Presyrinx state is a
new concept that was put forward in study mechanism of
Syringomyelia in the last few years. because it can indicate the
earlier period expression of syringomyelia, research of the
presyrinx state have great use in preventing and treating
syringomyelia.
Our experiment showed: presyrinx state is a kind of
changes for lack in blood. This kind of swollen is asogenic
edema .the main cause is disruption of the blood-brain barrier
and abnormal vascular permeability. Matrix metallo-
proteinase-9 can degrades gelatin ,collagen Ⅳ, Ⅴ; elastin;
virtronectin; myelin basic protein; and other subtrates. as to this,
it can disrupt the blood – brain barrier and increase the vascular
permeability. so we think MMP-9 may plays an important role
in presyrinx state. doxycyline is artificially synthized inhabitor
of MMP-9. it can inhabit MMP-9 activity. This experiment
target to investigate the role and mechanism of MMP-9 in
the formation of presyrinx state of experimental syringomyelia

in rabbits,and supply the basis to the therapy and prevention to
syringomyelia. We estimate the degree of the spinal cord edema
and observed its development tendency.In the same time , the
MMP-9 expression intensity in spinal cord was determined by
westernblot and immunohistochemistry,moreover,we applied
doxycyline to interfere the MMP-9 activity.
Method: 96 Chinese white rabbits, weight 1.5-2 kg, is
divided randomly into fuor groups: Kaolin group(30 rabbits),
the group treated with doxycycline (30 rabbits), physiological
saline group(30 rabbits) and contral group(6 rabbits). Under
ketamine anesthesia (30 mgs/ kg),0.6ml of 25% kaolin solution
was injected into the cisterna magna after 0.6ml of cereberal
spinal fliud was withdraw slowly from the cistern, in all rabbits
of the kaolin group and doxycycline group,while 0.6ml of 37℃
physiological saline was injected into the cistern in those of
saline group; the doxycycline (25mg/kg.d) after the operation
was applied for doxycycline group. At first, third, seventh,
tenth, forteenth day after kaolin injection, the rabbits selected
randomly from every group were anaethetized again. All the
animals were killed by trasecting at junction of cervico-thorcic
cord, then the brains and cervico cords were moved wholly and
quicly, 4mm cervico cord were cut from C1-2 segement,the wet
weight(W) was obtained with electronic balance(0.0001g) after
clearing off carefully the arachnoid, kaolin deposition and
water from surface. The dry weigh(D) was scaled after roasting
for 24 hours in 110℃ thermostatic baker .Water content of

spinal cord (%) can be obtained with the formula:water
content(%)=(W-D)/W×100.The spcimens of C2-3 were fixed
in 4% formaldehydum polymeridatum for 48 hours, then
embeded in the paraffin . H﹠E staining and imumuno-
histochemistry were completed to the section. Take the
section C3-4 a specimen to put into the liquid nitrogen for 2
minuteses quickly,then keep it in -70 ℃ refrigerators. Western
blot measureses the expression of MMP-9 activity. The
expression of MMP-9 at different time pionts was compared
with edema level of spinal cord at corresponding time point,
while both of the development tendencys were observed.
Result: All animals of kaolin group had shown
depressd,anorexia from the first to third day after acupuncture,
most severely during the seventh to the fourteenth day in
addition to having the slight paralysis in this period; these
symptoms were remissive after 2 weeks. The animals of
doxycycline group had shown depressd,anorexia from the fi
