摘要
背景:成体干细胞的伦理学问题较少,而且某些操作技术比较成熟,利用成体干细胞进行组织工程化涎腺的构建具有十分诱人的吸引力和极其重要的应用前景。目的:建立下颌下腺主导管结扎的涎腺组织损伤大鼠模型,探讨涎腺组织损伤模型中成体干/祖细胞存在的可能性及可能位置。方法:SD大鼠统一行右侧下颌下腺主导管结扎,1周后处死大鼠取出两侧腺体,通过苏木精-伊红染色、PAS糖原染色及细胞角蛋白19、Bcl-2、Ki-67等指标的免疫组织化学测定,对正常涎腺组织与建立的损伤模型组织进行比较。结果与结论:同一只大鼠,结扎侧与对照侧体积、质量有明显的差异。对照侧下颌下腺组织呈卵圆形,色泽红润,表面光滑,有完整包膜,质地柔软;结扎后腺体萎缩,组织形态欠规整,色泽暗红,包膜充血,质地变韧,周围组织血管代偿性扩张。主导管结扎的组织损伤模型可导致PAS阳性腺细胞的消失和细胞角蛋白19阳性的小导管上皮细胞增殖,并有在未结扎的腺体中很少见到的小丛层粘连蛋白阳性细胞出现在导管周围,而抑制细胞凋亡的Bcl-2和提示增殖活跃度的Ki-67的表达均有所增强。可见下颌下腺组织中可能存在着定位于涎腺周围导管区的下颌下腺干/祖细胞;下颌下腺主导管结扎导致的组织损伤模型是一种能有效激活下颌下腺组织中干/祖细胞的方法。
BACKGROUND: Fewer ethical issues exist in adult stem cells, and some operating technologies are relatively mature. Therefore, to construct tissue-engineered salivary glands using adult stem cells is very attractive and seductive with an extremely important application prospect. OBJECTIVE: To establish a rat model of salivary gland injury by ligation of the main excretory duct of the submandibular gland and to explore the existing feasibility and location of adult stem cells in the injured models. METHODS: The main excretory duct of the right submandibular glands was ligated in Sprague-Dawley rats. After 1 week, rats were killed to remove the bilateral glands that were then subject to hematoxylin-eosin staining, PAS glycogen staining and immunohistochemical staining for determination of CK-19, Bcl-2, Ki-67. After that, we compared the normal submandibular gland with the damaged model after ligation of main excretory duct. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: The rats showed differences in the volume and mass of the affected and normal submandibular glands. The normal submandibular gland was oval, ruddy, smooth, soft with an intact envelop. After ligation, the injured submandibular gland appeared to have atrophy with dark red in color, irregular morphology, envelop congestion, and rough texture; the surrounding vessels showed compensatory expansion. PAS-positive gland cells disappeared, CK-19-postive small duct epithelial cells proliferated, and laminin-positive cells that were rarely found in the normal gland existed around the duct. In addition, Bcl-2/Ki-67 positive cellswere both increased. These findings indicate that stem/progenitor cells may be located in the periductal area of the submandibular gland; and the model of submandibular gland injury established by ligation of the main excretory duct is effective to activate stem/progenitor cells in the submandibular gland.
