Regulation of inflammatory factors in the coronary atherosclerosis region on stem cell migration in mice
Objective To investigate the effects of tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α)and interleukin-6(IL-6)in coronary arteriosclerosis(AS)on the migration of stem cell antigen-1(Scal-1)and Nanog positive cells migration.Methods Ten atherosclerotic model mice and 10 normal mice were taken respectively,and the fresh hearts of the two groups were taken out,OCT embedding,frozen sections,HE staining and oil red O staining were performed respectively to observe the pathological changes of coronary arteries;Using immunohistochemical staining techniques,the expression changes of TNF-α,IL-6,Scal-1,and Nanog in the coronary artery wall were observed under light microscope.The ventricular tissue of 20 1-week-old mice was excised.Primary Scal-1 and Nanog positive cells were extracted using density gradient centrifugation,and these cells were purified and cultured.Immunofluorescence technology was used to identify the purity of Scal-1 and Nanog positive cells.Transwell migration experiments on passage 1(P1)cells was performed to observe the effects of different concentrations of inflammatory factors on the migration of Scal-1 and Nanog positive cells.Results The blood lipid test showed that the total cholesterol,triglycerides,and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol of the model mice were significantly higher than those of the normal control group.Histological staining showed that all the mouse models had obvious coronary atherosclerosis plaque.Immunohistochemical staining results showed that the inflammatory factor TNF-α and IL-6 in atherosclerosis region were strong positive expression,while Scal-1 and Nanog positive cells in atherosclerotic plaques increased,compared to the normal group.The positive rate of Scal-1 in P1 generation cells was about 80％,The positive rate of Nanog was approximately 91％.The Transwell experiment showed that IL-6 had no effect on cell migration at low concentrations,but had an inhibitory effect on cell migration at high concentrations;Low concentrations TNF-α promoted cell migration with 0.5 μg/L TNF-α showing the most significant effection cell migration,and exhibiting inhibitory effects inhibit at high concentrations.Conclusion TNF-α and IL-6 inflammatory factors,Scal-1 and Nanog positive cells are all involved in the occurrence and development of AS,and the appropriate concentration of inflammatory factors can enhance the migration of stem cells to the coronary atherosclerosis region.
