Objective

This study aimed to identify the molecular defects and clinical manifestations in a Chinese family with brachydactyly (BD) type A1 (BDA1) and multiple-synostoses syndrome 2 (SYNS2).

Methods

A Chinese family with BDA1 and SYNS2 was enrolled in this study. Whole-exome sequencing was used to analyze the gene variants in the proband. The sequences of the candidate pathogenic variant in GDF5 was validated via Sanger sequencing. I-TASSER and PyMOL were used to analyze the functional domains of the corresponding mutant proteins.

Results

The family was found to have an autosomal-dominantly inherited combination of BDA1 and SYNS2 caused by the S475N variant in the GDF5 gene. The variant was located within the functional region, and the mutated residue was found to be highly conserved among species. Via bioinformatic analyses, we predicted this variant to be deleterious, which perturb the protein function. The substitution of the negatively charged amino acid S475 with the neutral N475 was predicted to disrupt the formation of salt bridges with Y487 and impair the structure, stability, and function of the protein, consequently, the abnormalities in cartilage and bone development ensue.

Conclusions

A single genetic variant (S475N) which disrupt the formation of salt bridges with Y487, in the interface of the antagonist- and receptor-binding sites of GDF5 concurrently causes two pathological mechanisms. This is the first report of this variant, identified in a Chinese family with BDA1 and SYNS2.

本研究旨在确定一个中国A1型腕足(BD)(BDA1)和多发性腕足综合征2(SYNS2)家族的分子缺陷和临床表现。全外显子组测序分析了该患者的基因变异。通过桑格测序验证了 GDF5 候选致病变体的序列。研究发现,该家族的BDA1和SYNS2组合为常染色体显性遗传,由GDF5基因中的S475N变异体引起。该变异位于功能区,变异残基在物种间高度保守。通过生物信息学分析,我们预测该变异是有害的,会扰乱蛋白质的功能。据预测,带负电荷的氨基酸 S475 被中性的 N475 取代后,会破坏与 Y487 形成的盐桥,损害蛋白质的结构、稳定性和功能,从而导致软骨和骨骼发育异常。在 GDF5 的拮抗剂位点和受体结合位点的界面上,一个单一的遗传变异(S475N)会破坏与 Y487 形成的盐桥,同时导致两种病理机制。这是首次报道在一个患有 BDA1 和 SYNS2 的中国家族中发现这种变异。

Background

The regulation of inflammatory mediators in the degenerating intervertebral disc (IVD) and corresponding ligamentum flavum (LF) is a topic of emerging interest. The study aimed to investigate the expression of a broad array of inflammatory mediators in the degenerated LF and IVD using a dog model of spontaneous degenerative disc disease (DDD) to determine potential treatment targets.

Methods

LF and IVD tissues were collected from 22 normal dogs (Pfirrmann grades I and II) and 18 dogs affected by DDD (Pfirrmann grades III and IV). A qPCR gene array was used to investigate the expression of 80 inflammatory genes for LF and IVD tissues, whereafter targets of interest were investigated in additional tissue samples using qPCR, western blot (WB), and immunohistochemistry.

Results

Tumor necrosis factor superfamily (TNFSF) signaling was identified as a regulated pathway in DDD, based on the significant regulation (n-fold ± SD) of various TNFSF members in the degenerated IVD, including nerve growth factor (NGF; −8 ± 10), CD40LG (464 ± 442), CD70 (341 ± 336), TNFSF Ligand 10 (9 ± 8), and RANKL/TNFSF Ligand 11 (85 ± 74). In contrast, TNFSF genes were not significantly affected in the degenerated LF compared to the control LF. Protein expression of NGF (WB) was significantly upregulated in both the degenerated LF (4.4 ± 0.5) and IVD (11.3 ± 5.6) compared to the control group. RANKL immunopositivity was significantly upregulated in advanced stages of degeneration (Thompson grades IV and V) in the nucleus pulposus and annulus fibrosus of the IVD, but not in the LF.

Conclusions

DDD involves a significant upregulation of various TNFSF members, with tissue-specific expression profiles in LF and IVD tissues. The differential involvement of TNFSF members within multiple spinal tissues from the same individual provides new insights into the inflammatory processes involved in DDD and may provide a basis to formulate hypotheses for the determination of potential treatment targets.

退化的椎间盘(IVD)和相应的黄韧带(LF)中炎症介质的调控是一个新出现的令人感兴趣的话题。该研究旨在利用自发性椎间盘退行性病变(DDD)的狗模型研究退行性LF和IVD中一系列炎症介质的表达,以确定潜在的治疗靶点。LF和IVD组织取自22只正常狗(Pfirrmann分级I级和II级)和18只受DDD影响的狗(Pfirrmann分级III级和IV级)。使用 qPCR 基因阵列研究了 LF 和 IVD 组织中 80 个炎症基因的表达,然后使用 qPCR、Western 印迹 (WB) 和免疫组织化学方法研究了其他组织样本中感兴趣的靶点。肿瘤坏死因子超家族(TNFSF)信号传导被确定为DDD中受调控的通路,其依据是变性IVD中各种TNFSF成员的显著调控(n-fold ± SD),包括神经生长因子(NGF;-8 ± 10)、CD40LG(464 ± 442)、CD70(341 ± 336)、TNFSF配体10(9 ± 8)和RANKL/TNFSF配体11(85 ± 74)。相反,与对照组相比,变性 LF 中的 TNFSF 基因没有受到明显影响。与对照组相比,退化的LF(4.4 ± 0.5)和IVD(11.3 ± 5.6)中NGF(WB)的蛋白表达均明显上调。在变性晚期(Thompson IV级和V级),RANKL免疫阳性在IVD的髓核和纤维环中明显上调,而在LF中则没有。TNFSF成员在同一个人的多个脊柱组织中的不同参与,为了解DDD所涉及的炎症过程提供了新的视角,并为确定潜在的治疗靶点提供了假说基础。

Background

The sagittal imbalance (SI) of spine triggers compensatory mechanisms (CMs) of lower extremity (LE) to restore trunk balance. These CMs can cause long-period stress on the femur and may possibly alter the femoral morphology. This cross-sectional observational study aimed to answer the following questions: (a) Do SI subjects exhibit greater femoral bowing compared to subjects with sagittal balance? (b) Are there associations between femoral bowing and CMs of LE in SI subjects?

Methods

Subjects who underwent biplanar full body radiographs with the EOS imaging system between January 2016 and September 2021 were recruited. Sagittal parameters included T1-pelvic angle (TPA), pelvic incidence (PI), pelvic tilt (PT), sacral slope, lumbar lordosis (LL), PI-LL, and PT/PI ratio. LE parameters were femoral obliquity angle (FOA), knee flexion angle (KA), and ankle dorsiflexion angle. Femoral bowing was quantified as 3D radius of femoral curvature (RFC). Associations between 3D RFC and the radiographic parameters were analyzed.

Results

A total of 105 subjects were included, classified into balance group (TPA < 14°, n = 40), SI group (TPA ≥ 14° and KA <5°, n = 30), and SI with knee flexion group (TPA ≥ 14° and KA ≥ 5°, n = 35). 3D RFC was significantly lower in SI with knee flexion group compared to the other two groups (both p < 0.001). Stepwise linear regression showed that age, SI and knee flexion, femoral length (FL), FOA, and KA were independent predictors for 3D RFC.

Conclusion

Greater femoral bowing is observed in subjects with SI and knee flexion compared to the balanced population. CM parameters, including KA and FOA, are associated with 3D RFC. Further longitudinal study is needed to investigate the cause-and-effect relationship between SI, CMs of LE, and femoral bowing.

脊柱的矢状失衡(SI)会触发下肢(LE)的补偿机制(CM),以恢复躯干平衡。这些代偿机制会对股骨造成长期压力,并可能改变股骨形态。这项横断面观察性研究旨在回答以下问题:(a)与矢状平衡受试者相比,SI 受试者是否表现出更大的股骨弯曲?(b) SI 受试者的股骨弯曲与 LE 的 CMs 之间是否存在关联?矢状面参数包括 T1-骨盆角 (TPA)、骨盆入射角 (PI)、骨盆倾斜 (PT)、骶骨斜度、腰椎前凸 (LL)、PI-LL 和 PT/PI 比值。LE参数为股骨倾斜角(FOA)、膝关节屈曲角(KA)和踝关节背屈角。股骨弯曲以三维股骨曲率半径(RFC)量化。共纳入105名受试者,分为平衡组(TPA<14°,n=40)、SI组(TPA≥14°且KA<5°,n=30)和膝关节屈曲SI组(TPA≥14°且KA≥5°,n=35)。与其他两组相比,膝关节屈曲的 SI 组的 3D RFC 明显较低(均 p <0.001)。逐步线性回归显示,年龄、SI和膝关节屈曲度、股骨长度(FL)、FOA和KA是三维RFC的独立预测因子。包括 KA 和 FOA 在内的 CM 参数与 3D RFC 相关。需要进一步的纵向研究来探讨SI、LE的CMs和股骨弯曲之间的因果关系。

Background

Lumbar spine pathology (LSP) is a common source of low back or leg pain, and paraspinal muscle in these patients demonstrates fatty and fibrotic infiltration, and cellular degeneration that do not reverse with exercise-based rehabilitation. However, it is unclear of this lack of response is due to insufficient exercise stimulus, or an inability to mount a growth response. The purpose of this study was to compare paraspinal muscle gene expression between individuals with LSP who do and do not undergo an acute bout of resistance exercise.

Methods

Paraspinal muscle biopsies were obtained from 64 individuals with LSP undergoing spinal surgery. Eight participants performed an acute bout of machine-based lumbar extension resistance exercise preoperatively. Gene expression for 42 genes associated with adipogenic/metabolic, atrophic, fibrogenic, inflammatory, and myogenic pathways was measured, and differential expression between exercised and non-exercised groups was evaluated for (a) the full cohort, and (b) an age, gender, acuity, and etiology matched sub-cohort. Principal components analyses were used to identify gene expression clustering across clinical phenotypes.

Results

The exercised cohort demonstrated upregulation of inflammatory gene IL1B, inhibition of extracellular matrix components (increased MMP3&9, decreased TIMP1&3, COL1A1) and metabolic/adipogenic genes (FABP4, PPARD, WNT10B), and downregulation of myogenic (MYOD, ANKRD2B) and atrophic (FOXO3) genes compared to the non-exercised cohort, with similar patterns in the matched sub-analysis. There were no clinical phenotypes significantly associated with gene expression profiles.

Conclusion

An acute bout of moderate-high intensity resistance exercise did not result in upregulation of myogenic genes in individuals with LSP. The response was characterized by mixed metabolic and fibrotic gene expression, upregulation of inflammation, and downregulation of myogenesis.

背景腰椎病变(LSP)是腰痛或腿痛的常见原因,这些患者的脊柱旁肌肉会出现脂肪和纤维化浸润以及细胞变性,而运动康复并不能逆转这些现象。然而,目前还不清楚这种缺乏反应是由于运动刺激不足,还是由于无法产生生长反应。本研究旨在比较接受和未接受急性阻力运动的 LSP 患者的脊柱旁肌肉基因表达。 方法 从 64 名接受脊柱手术的 LSP 患者身上获取脊柱旁肌肉活检组织。八名参与者在术前进行了一次急性机器腰椎伸展阻力运动。测量了与脂肪生成/代谢、萎缩、纤维化、炎症和肌生成途径相关的 42 个基因的表达,并评估了运动组和非运动组之间的差异表达,包括 (a) 整个队列,以及 (b) 年龄、性别、视力和病因匹配的子队列。主成分分析用于识别不同临床表型的基因表达聚类。 结果 运动队列显示炎症基因 IL1B 上调、细胞外基质成分抑制(MMP3&9 增加、TIMP1&3 减少、COL1A1 增加);3、COL1A1)和代谢/致脂肪基因(FABP4、PPARD、WNT10B)的上调,以及致肌基因(MYOD、ANKRD2B)和萎缩基因(FOXO3)的下调。没有临床表型与基因表达谱明显相关。 结论 急性中高强度阻力运动不会导致 LSP 患者的肌生成基因上调。反应的特点是代谢和纤维化基因混合表达、炎症上调和肌生成下调。

Background

The ion channel transient receptor potential vanilloid 4 (TRPV4) critically transduces mechanical forces in the IVD, and its inhibition can prevent IVD degeneration due to static overloading. However, it remains unknown whether different modes of loading signals through TRPV4 to regulate the expression of inflammatory cytokines. We hypothesized that TRPV4 signaling is essential during static and dynamic loading to mediate homeostasis and mechanotransduction.

Methods

Mouse functional spine units were isolated and either cyclically compressed for 5 days (1 Hz, 1 h, 10% strain) or statically compressed (24 h, 0.2 MPa). Conditioned media were monitored at 6 h, 24 h, 2 days, and 5 days, with and without TRPV4 inhibition. Effects of TRPV4 activation was also evaluated without loading. The media was analyzed for a panel of 44 cytokines using a microbead array and then a correlative network was constructed to explore the regulatory relationships during loading and TRPV4 inhibition. After the loading regimen, the IVDs were evaluated histologically for degeneration.

Results

Activation of TRPV4 led to an increase interleukin-6 (IL-6) family of cytokines (IL-6, IL-11, IL-16, and leukemia inhibitory factor [LIF]) and decreased the T-cell (CCL3, CCL4, CCL17, CCL20, CCL22, and CXCL10) and monocyte (CCL2 and CCL12) recruiting chemokines by the IVD. Dynamic and static loading each provoked unique chemokine correlation networks. The inhibition of TRPV4 during dynamic loading dysregulated the relationship between LIF and other cytokines, while the inhibition of TRPV4 during static loading disrupted the connectivity of IL-16 and VEGFA.

Conclusions

We demonstrated that TRPV4 critically mediates the cytokine production following dynamic and static loading. The activation of TRPV4 upregulated a diverse set of cytokines that may suppress the chemotaxis of T-cells and monocytes, implicating the role of TRPV4 in maintaining the immune privilege of healthy IVD.

背景离子通道瞬时受体电位类香草素 4(TRPV4)在 IVD 中传递关键的机械力,抑制 TRPV4 可防止 IVD 因静态过载而变性。然而,不同的负荷模式是否会通过 TRPV4 信号来调节炎性细胞因子的表达仍是未知数。我们推测,TRPV4 信号在静态和动态负荷期间对介导平衡和机械传导至关重要。 方法 分离小鼠功能脊柱单元,并对其进行为期 5 天的周期性加压(1 赫兹,1 小时,10% 应变)或静态加压(24 小时,0.2 兆帕)。在抑制或不抑制 TRPV4 的情况下,分别在 6 小时、24 小时、2 天和 5 天对条件介质进行监测。在没有加载的情况下,也评估了 TRPV4 激活的效果。使用微珠阵列分析了培养基中的 44 种细胞因子,然后构建了一个相关网络,以探索负载和 TRPV4 抑制期间的调控关系。加载方案结束后,对 IVD 的变性进行组织学评估。 结果 TRPV4的激活导致白细胞介素-6(IL-6)家族细胞因子(IL-6、IL-11、IL-16和白血病抑制因子[LIF])的增加,并降低了IVD招募T细胞(CCL3、CCL4、CCL17、CCL20、CCL22和CXCL10)和单核细胞(CCL2和CCL12)的趋化因子。动态和静态负荷都会引发独特的趋化因子相关网络。在动态负荷期间抑制 TRPV4 会使 LIF 与其他细胞因子之间的关系失调,而在静态负荷期间抑制 TRPV4 则会破坏 IL-16 与 VEGFA 的连接。 结论 我们证明了 TRPV4 在动态和静态负荷后介导细胞因子的产生。激活 TRPV4 会上调多种细胞因子,这些细胞因子可能会抑制 T 细胞和单核细胞的趋化性,这表明 TRPV4 在维持健康 IVD 的免疫特权方面发挥着重要作用。

Background

Vertebral endplate sclerosis and facet osteoarthritis have been documented in animals and humans. However, it is unclear how these adjacent pathologies engage in crosstalk with the intervertebral disc. This study sought to elucidate this crosstalk by assessing each compartment individually in response to acute disc injury.

Methods

Eleven New Zealand White rabbits underwent annular disc puncture using a 16G or 21G needle. At 4 and 10 weeks, individual compartments of the motion segment were analyzed. Discs underwent T1 relaxation mapping with MRI contrast agent gadodiamide as well T2 mapping. Both discs and facets underwent mechanical testing via vertebra—disc—vertebra tension-compression creep testing and indentation testing, respectively. Endplate bone density was quantified via μCT. Discs and facets were sectioned and stained for histology scoring.

Results

Intervertebral discs became more degenerative with increasing needle diameter and time post-puncture. Bone density also increased in endplates adjacent to both 21G and 16G punctured discs leading to reduced gadodiamide transport at 10 weeks. The facet joints, however, did not follow this same trend. Facets adjacent to 16G punctured discs were less degenerative than facets adjacent to 21G punctured discs at 10 weeks. 16G facets were more degenerative at 4 weeks than at 10, suggesting the cartilage had recovered. The formation of severe disc osteophytes in 16G punctured discs between 4 and 10 weeks likely offloaded the facet cartilage, leading to the recovery observed.

Conclusions

Overall, this study supports that degeneration spans the whole spinal motion segment following disc injury. Vertebral endplate thickening occurred in response to disc injury, which limited the diffusion of small molecules into the disc. This work also suggests that altered disc mechanics can induce facet degeneration, and that extreme bony remodeling adjacent to the disc may promote facet cartilage recovery through offloading of the articular cartilage.

背景 在动物和人类身上都有椎间盘内板硬化和面骨关节炎的记录。然而,目前还不清楚这些相邻病变是如何与椎间盘发生串扰的。本研究试图通过评估每个区室对急性椎间盘损伤的反应来阐明这种串扰。 方法 11只新西兰白兔接受了使用16G或21G针头进行的椎间盘环形穿刺。在 4 周和 10 周时,对运动节段的各个区段进行分析。用核磁共振成像造影剂钆双胺对椎间盘进行T1弛豫成像,并进行T2成像。椎间盘和椎面分别通过椎体-椎间盘-椎体张力-压缩蠕变测试和压痕测试进行机械测试。通过μCT对终板骨密度进行量化。对椎间盘和切面进行切片和染色,以进行组织学评分。 结果 随着穿刺针直径的增加和穿刺后时间的延长,椎间盘的退变程度加剧。与 21G 和 16G 穿刺椎间盘相邻的终板骨密度也有所增加,导致 10 周后钆二胺转运减少。然而,面关节并没有遵循同样的趋势。在10周时,与21G穿刺椎间盘相邻的面关节退化程度低于与16G穿刺椎间盘相邻的面关节。16G关节面在4周时的退变程度比10周时严重,这表明软骨已经恢复。16G穿刺椎间盘在4周和10周之间形成了严重的椎间盘骨质增生,这很可能减轻了切面软骨的负荷,从而导致了所观察到的恢复。 结论 总体而言,本研究支持椎间盘损伤后整个脊柱运动节段的退变。椎间盘损伤后出现的椎间盘终板增厚限制了小分子物质向椎间盘的扩散。这项研究还表明,椎间盘力学的改变可诱发切面退变,而椎间盘附近极度的骨质重塑可通过关节软骨的卸载促进切面软骨的恢复。

Background

Intervertebral disc degeneration is associated with low back pain, which is a leading cause of disability. While the precise causes of disc degeneration are unknown, inadequate nutrient and metabolite transport through the cartilage endplate (CEP) may be one important factor. Prior work shows that CEP transport properties depend on the porosity of the CEP matrix, but little is known about the role of CEP characteristics that could influence transport properties independently from porosity. Here, we show that CEP transport properties depend on the extent of non-enzymatic glycation of the CEP matrix.

Methods and Results

Using in vitro ribosylation to induce non-enzymatic glycation and promote the formation of advanced glycation end products, we found that ribosylation reduced glucose partition coefficients in human cadaveric lumbar CEP tissues by 10.7%, on average, compared with donor- and site-matched CEP tissues that did not undergo ribosylation (p = 0.04). These reductions in glucose uptake were observed in the absence of differences in CEP porosity (p = 0.89) or in the amounts of sulfated glycosaminoglycans (sGAGs, p = 0.47) or collagen (p = 0.61). To investigate whether ribosylation altered electrostatic interactions between fixed charges on the sGAG molecules and the mobile free ions, we measured the charge density in the CEP matrix using equilibrium partitioning of a cationic contrast agent using micro-computed tomography. After contrast enhancement, mean X-ray attenuation was 11.9% lower in the CEP tissues that had undergone ribosylation (p = 0.02), implying the CEP matrix was less negatively charged.

Conclusions

Taken together, these findings indicate that non-enzymatic glycation negatively impacts glucose transport in the CEP independent of matrix porosity or sGAG content and that the effects may be mediated by alterations to matrix charge density.

背景椎间盘退化与腰背痛有关,而腰背痛是导致残疾的主要原因。虽然椎间盘退化的确切原因尚不清楚,但通过软骨终板(CEP)的营养和代谢物运输不足可能是一个重要因素。之前的研究表明,CEP的运输特性取决于CEP基质的孔隙率,但对于CEP特性的作用却知之甚少,而这些特性可能会独立于孔隙率影响运输特性。在这里,我们发现 CEP 的运输特性取决于 CEP 基质的非酶糖化程度。 方法和结果 通过体外核糖基化诱导非酶糖化并促进高级糖化终产物的形成,我们发现与未发生核糖基化的供体和部位匹配的 CEP 组织相比,核糖基化使人体尸体腰部 CEP 组织的葡萄糖分配系数平均降低了 10.7%(p = 0.04)。在 CEP 孔隙度(p = 0.89)或硫酸化糖胺聚糖(sGAGs,p = 0.47)或胶原蛋白(p = 0.61)含量没有差异的情况下,也能观察到葡萄糖摄取量的减少。为了研究核糖基化是否会改变 sGAG 分子上的固定电荷与移动游离离子之间的静电相互作用,我们利用微计算机断层扫描技术,通过阳离子造影剂的平衡分配来测量 CEP 基质中的电荷密度。对比增强后,经过核糖基化的 CEP 组织的平均 X 射线衰减降低了 11.9%(p = 0.02),这意味着 CEP 基质的负电荷较少。 结论 综上所述,这些研究结果表明,非酶糖化会对 CEP 中的葡萄糖转运产生负面影响,与基质孔隙率或 sGAG 含量无关,而且这种影响可能是由基质电荷密度的改变介导的。

The cartilaginous endplates (CEP) are key components of the intervertebral disc (IVD) necessary for sustaining the nutrition of the disc while distributing mechanical loads and preventing the disc from bulging into the adjacent vertebral body. The size, shape, and composition of the CEP are essential in maintaining its function, and degeneration of the CEP is considered a contributor to early IVD degeneration. In addition, the CEP is implicated in Modic changes, which are often associated with low back pain. This review aims to tackle the current knowledge of the CEP regarding its structure, composition, permeability, and mechanical role in a healthy disc, how they change with degeneration, and how they connect to IVD degeneration and low back pain. Additionally, the authors suggest a standardized naming convention regarding the CEP and bony endplate and suggest avoiding the term vertebral endplate. Currently, there is limited data on the CEP itself as reported data is often a combination of CEP and bony endplate, or the CEP is considered as articular cartilage. However, it is clear the CEP is a unique tissue type that differs from articular cartilage, bony endplate, and other IVD tissues. Thus, future research should investigate the CEP separately to fully understand its role in healthy and degenerated IVDs. Further, most IVD regeneration therapies in development failed to address, or even considered the CEP, despite its key role in nutrition and mechanical stability within the IVD. Thus, the CEP should be considered and potentially targeted for future sustainable treatments.

软骨内板(CEP)是椎间盘(IVD)的关键组成部分,是维持椎间盘营养、分散机械负荷和防止椎间盘膨出到邻近椎体的必要条件。CEP 的大小、形状和成分对维持其功能至关重要,CEP 的退化被认为是导致 IVD 早期退化的一个因素。此外,CEP 还与 Modic 变化有关,而 Modic 变化通常与腰背痛有关。这篇综述旨在探讨目前关于CEP的知识,包括CEP的结构、组成、渗透性、在健康椎间盘中的机械作用、它们如何随着退变而变化,以及它们如何与IVD退变和腰背痛相关联。此外,作者还建议对 CEP 和骨性终板进行标准化命名,并建议避免使用椎体终板一词。目前,有关 CEP 本身的数据有限,因为报告的数据往往是 CEP 和骨性终板的组合,或者将 CEP 视为关节软骨。然而,CEP 显然是一种独特的组织类型,不同于关节软骨、骨终板和其他 IVD 组织。因此,未来的研究应单独研究CEP,以充分了解其在健康和退化的IVD中的作用。此外,尽管CEP在IVD的营养和机械稳定性方面起着关键作用,但大多数正在开发的IVD再生疗法都没有涉及或甚至没有考虑到CEP。因此,未来的可持续疗法应考虑并可能以CEP为目标。

Thus, the CEP should be considered and potentially targeted for future sustainable treatments.</p>","PeriodicalId":14876,"journal":{"name":"JOR Spine","volume":"6 4","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.7,"publicationDate":"2023-10-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1002/jsp2.1294","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135512642","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Background

The evolution and treatment of lung alterations related to congenital spine and chest wall deformities (CWD) are poorly understood. Most animal models of CWD created postnatally were not evaluated for respiratory function. The goal of our study was to evaluate the effects of a CWD induced in utero on lung growth and function in an ovine model.

Methods

A CWD was induced in utero at 70–75 days of gestation in 14 ovine fetuses by resection of the 7th and 8th left ribs. Each non-operated twin fetus was taken as control. Respiratory mechanics was studied postnatally in the first week and at 1, 2, and 3 months. Post-mortem respiratory mechanics and lung histomorphometry were also assessed at 3 months.

Results

Eight out of 14 CWD lambs (57%) and 14 control lambs survived the postnatal period. One severe and five mild deformities were induced. At birth, inspiratory capacity (25 vs. 32 mL/kg in controls), and dynamic (1.4 vs. 1.8 mL/cmH2O/kg), and static (2.0 vs. 2.5 mL/cmH2O/kg) respiratory system compliances were decreased in CWD lambs. Apart from a slight decrease in inspiratory capacity at 1 month of life, no other differences were observed in respiratory mechanics measured in vivo thereafter. Postmortem measurements found a significant decrease in lung compliance—for each lung and for both lungs taken together—in CWD lambs. No differences in lung histology were detected at 3 months in CWD animals compared to controls.

Conclusions

Our study is the first to assess the effects of a prenatally induced CWD on lung development and function from birth to 3 months in an ovine model. Our results show no significant differences in lung histomorphometry at 3 months in CWD lambs compared to controls. Resolution at 1 month of the alterations in respiratory mechanics present at birth may be related to the challenge in inducing severe deformities.

背景 对先天性脊柱和胸壁畸形(CWD)引起的肺部改变的演变和治疗方法知之甚少。大多数产后建立的 CWD 动物模型都没有进行呼吸功能评估。我们的研究旨在评估子宫内诱导的 CWD 对绵羊模型肺生长和功能的影响。 方法 在妊娠 70-75 天时,通过切除左侧第 7 和第 8 根肋骨,对 14 个雌性胎儿进行子宫内 CWD 诱导。每个未做手术的双胎作为对照。产后第一周以及 1、2 和 3 个月时对呼吸力学进行了研究。在 3 个月时还对死后呼吸力学和肺组织形态学进行了评估。 结果 14只CWD羔羊中有8只(57%)和14只对照组羔羊在出生后存活。诱发了1例严重畸形和5例轻度畸形。出生时,CWD羔羊的吸气量(25 mL/kg对对照组的32 mL/kg)、动态(1.4 mL/cmH2O/kg对1.8 mL/cmH2O/kg)和静态(2.0 mL/cmH2O/kg对2.5 mL/cmH2O/kg)呼吸系统顺应性均下降。除了出生 1 个月时吸气能力略有下降外,此后在体内测量的呼吸力学中未观察到其他差异。死后测量发现,CWD羔羊的肺顺应性显著下降,包括每个肺和两个肺的顺应性。与对照组相比,3 个月大的 CWD 动物的肺组织学未发现任何差异。 结论 我们的研究首次评估了产前诱导的 CWD 对绵羊模型从出生到 3 个月肺发育和功能的影响。我们的研究结果表明,与对照组相比,CWD羔羊在3个月时的肺组织形态学没有明显差异。出生时出现的呼吸力学改变在1个月时得到缓解,这可能与诱发严重畸形的挑战有关。
