项目摘要

Summary There is no successful biologic treatment for intervertebral disc degeneration (IDD). The goal of this proposal is to utilize a hydrogel-based engineering approach to deliver PDGF to intervertebral disc (IVD) tissue and establish PDGF as a potent inhibitor of IDD. We also aim to define the mechanisms underlying its effects on normal and diseased nucleus pulposus (NP) and annulus fibrosus (AF) cells using human IVDs as well as preclinical models of IDD. The scientific premise for the proposed work is a rigorous body of published evidence demonstrating that PDGF- BB, as well as PDGF-AB can stimulate disc cell growth and/or inhibit their programmed cell death in vitro. Our compelling preliminary data in vivo point to an anti-apoptotic effect of PDGF-BB in a rabbit puncture model, which led to restored disc height and enhanced mechanical properties of the treated discs compared to untreated controls. It is based on these encouraging data and other molecular preliminary data demonstrating that these anti-apoptotic effects may be mediated through the transcription factor Runx1, that we postulate the novel hypothesis that sustained exposure of the NP and AF to PDGF will repress IDD progression through controlling Runx1 activity. To test this hypothesis, we will first compare the effects of PDGF-BB and PDGF-AB on normal versus diseased human AF and NP cells cultured in high density. We will then determine the molecular mechanisms underlying the anti-degenerative effects of PDGF on disc cells through transcriptomic and functional analyses involving RUNX1 and other signaling molecules (Aim 1A). The validation of Runx1 function in PDGF-mediated effects will also be examined in vivo using a new gain of function mouse model (Aim 1B). In the second Aim, we will fabricate and validate the functionality of an injectable biomaterial capable of sustaining the exposure of disc cells to PDGF-BB (Aim 2A). We will then establish therapeutic modalities for long-term inhibition of IDD in vivo by PDGF-BB using a rabbit disc puncture model (Aim 2B). Our proposed work will provide seminal information about the mechanisms underlying PDGF’s effects on the IVD and the role of Runx1 in IDD. The mechanistic data will help identify new therapeutic targets to treat IDD.

总结目前还没有成功的生物治疗椎间盘退变（IDD）。这项提案的目的是是利用基于水凝胶的工程方法将PDGF递送至椎间盘（IVD）组织，建立PDGF作为IDD有效抑制剂。我们还旨在确定其影响的机制，正常和患病的髓核（NP）和纤维环（AF）细胞， IDD的临床前模型。这项工作的科学前提是一系列严格的已发表证据，证明PDGF- BB以及PDGF-AB可以刺激椎间盘细胞生长和/或抑制其体外程序性细胞死亡。我们令人信服的体内初步数据表明PDGF-BB在兔穿刺模型中具有抗凋亡作用，与未处理的相比，对照基于这些令人鼓舞的数据和其他分子初步数据，这些数据表明，抗凋亡作用可能是通过转录因子Runx 1介导的，我们假设新的假设持续暴露于PDGF的NP和AF将通过控制IDD进展来抑制IDD进展， Runx 1活动。为了验证这一假设，我们将首先比较PDGF-BB和PDGF-AB对正常人与病变人的作用。高密度培养的人AF和NP细胞。然后我们将确定潜在的分子机制通过转录组学和功能分析PDGF对椎间盘细胞的抗变性作用， RUNX 1和其他信号分子（Aim 1A）。Runx 1在PDGF介导效应中的功能验证将还使用新的功能获得小鼠模型（Aim 1B）在体内进行检查。在第二个目标中，我们将制造并验证能够维持椎间盘暴露的可注射生物材料的功能细胞转化为PDGF-BB（Aim 2A）。然后，我们将建立体内长期抑制IDD的治疗方法使用兔椎间盘穿刺模型（Aim 2B）通过PDGF-BB。我们的计划工作将提供开创性的信息关于PDGF对IVD的作用机制以及Runx 1在IDD中的作用。机械论数据将有助于确定治疗IDD的新治疗靶点。
