PLoS ONE: Treatment of spinal cord trauma with transgenic cord blood

After the body is traumatized, the transgene carried by the transplanted transgenic cells has a very large stimulating effect on the central nervous system. Pathological features occur around the injured area during spinal cord injury. In order to achieve a complete therapeutic effect, the transgene not only has an effect on the injured part, but also on the surrounding area of ​​the injury.

Treatment of spinal cord trauma with transgenic cord blood

Two transgenes such as vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and glial cell-derived neurotrophic factor (GDNF) have been shown to contribute to maintaining the viability of spinal cord cell populations including motor neurons.

VEGF promotes nerve formation, axon growth, and rapid proliferation of astrocytes, neural stem cells, and Schwann cells. GDNF can reduce apoptosis and tissue degeneration, promote the expression of neurofilament protein, calcitonin-related gene peptide (CGRP) and promote the growth of related protein 43.

In this study, the researchers selected human umbilical cord blood mononuclear cells (UCB-MCs), which are easily produced and safe, have lower immunogenicity and promote nerve regeneration. Umbilical cord blood cells can be converted into two factors, VEGF and GDNF.

VEGF and GDNF can act through different receptors and channels, and the researchers hypothesized that the simultaneous action of these two therapeutic genes would promote synergistic neuroprotective effects.

The researchers used rats to make a spinal cord injury model. "We examined the effectiveness of tissue retention construction, the severity of glial scars, the extent of axonal regeneration, motor recovery, and the expression of recombinant VEGF and GNDF in vitro and in vivo. Situation," Yana Mukhamedshina said.

The experimental results indicate that the adenoviral vector encodes VEGF and GDNF and converts them into UCB-MCs, which are effective and stable after transplantation.

The researchers concluded that transgenic human cord blood cells are a promising approach to improve post-traumatic regeneration.
