Method: A reliable rat model with injury of different gradation was established by using a weight-drop apparatus with a laser compression recorder. The replicate-defect recombinant adenoviral vector containing BDNF gene was transferred into the site of injured spinal cord by direct injection. The validity of gene transfer was verified with X-Gal staining. The morphological changes of the injured ax- on were studied quantitatively. The expression of BDNF mRNA, and immunocytochemical reactivity of BDNF and neurofila- ment(NF) in injured cord of rats were observed. Results: It was verified that the spinal coal could be effectively infected by injecting the adenoviral vector into the injured cord, and the reporter gene was expressed. The loss of axons reduced following the in vivo infection of adenoviral vector carrying exogenous BDNF gene after in injury, while more NF immunopositive ax- ons than that of normal spical cord were found. Conclusion: With in vivo transfer of adenovirus vector into the injured site, a certain extent of protection could be provided to the injured axons by increasing local expressions of exogenous DBNF, and renovation of the cytoskeleton in the injured neurons was facilitated. These double effects are both important in gene therapy of spinal cord injuries.展开更多

Cell viability, micro- tubule-associated protein 2-positive cell ratio, and the expression levels of glial cell line-derived neurotrophic factor, nerve growth factor and growth-associated protein-43 protein in the su- pernatant were significantly higher in glial cell line-derived neurotrophic factor/bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells compared with empty virus plasmid-transfected bone marrow mes- enchymal stem cells. Furthermore, microtubule-associated protein 2, glial cell line-derived neurotrophic factor, nerve growth factor and growth-associated protein743 mRNA levels in cell pellets were statistically higher in glial cell line-derived neurotrophic factor/bone marrow mesen- chymal stem cells compared with empty virus plasmid-transfected bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells. These results suggest that glial cell line-derived neurotrophic factor/bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells have a higher rate of induction into neuron-like cells, and this enhanced differentiation into neuron-like cells may be associated with up-regulated expression of glial cell line-derived neurotrophic factor, nerve growth factor and growth-associated protein-43.展开更多
