摘要: 目的: 建立优化的年轻与老年大鼠神经组织星形胶质细胞的分离纯化方法,比较年轻大鼠与老年大鼠星形胶质细胞的形态、功能差异,探讨老化后星形胶质细胞的功能改变及其在衰老过程中发挥的可能机制。方法: 采用50%-35%的percoll密度梯度离心法分选年轻(2月龄)和老年(20月龄)SD大鼠的大脑与脊髓星形胶质细胞;每组细胞设置3个复孔,培养72 h后,采用免疫荧光检测星形胶质细胞特异性标志物胶质纤维酸性蛋白(GFAP),观察不同年龄阶段星形胶质细胞的形态特征;qPCR检测衰老标志(p16、p21)的表达,β-半乳糖苷酶染色检测星形胶质细胞的衰老情况;qPCR检测促炎因子(IL-1β、TNF-α)与抗炎因子(IL-10)的表达水平。结果: 采用50%-35%的percoll梯度分选得到的星形胶质细胞的数量多、活性好、纯度高达95%以上,可用于后续实验。与年轻大鼠神经组织的星形胶质细胞相比,分选自老年大鼠神经组织的星形胶质细胞在细胞形态上偏向激活态,突起较少;星形胶质细胞β-半乳糖苷酶染色阳性率升高,p16、p21表达也明显增多(P<0.01);老年大鼠神经组织的星形胶质细胞的促炎因子(IL-1β、TNF-α)表达升高(P<0.05),抗炎因子(IL-10)表达有所降低(P<0.05)。结论: 50%-35%的percoll梯度可以作为大鼠神经组织星形胶质细胞的分选纯化、原代培养的方法;随着年龄的增加,星形胶质细胞发生细胞老化,表现出促炎症表型,促进神经系统的炎性衰老,可能是神经系统老化及神经退行性疾病的机制之一。

Abstract: Objective: To establish an optimized method for the isolation and purification of astrocytes from the neural tissues of young and aged rats. Then, the morphological and functional differences of astrocytes between young and aged rats were compared to explore the functional changes of astrocytes after aging and its possible mechanism in the aging process. Methods: Young (2 months old) and aged (20 months old) SD rats were used. Astrocytes in brain and spinal cord tissue were purified by 50% - 35% percoll density gradient centrifugation. Each group of cells was set up with three duplicate wells. After 72 h of culture, Glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) which was astrocyte specific marker were detected by immunofluorescence to evaluate the morphological characteristics. Cell senescence markers (p16 and p21) and β- Galactosidase were detected by qPCR and staining respectively. The expressions of pro-inflammatory cytokines (IL-1β, TNF-α) and anti-inflammatory cytokines were detected by qPCR. Results: Using 50%-35% percoll gradient separation, astrocytes were obtained with large number, good activity and purity of more than 95%, which could be used in subsequent experiments. Compared with the astrocytes in the nerve tissue of young rats, the astrocytes in the nervous tissue of the aged rats had fewer protrusions and tended to be activated in cell morphology; the positive rate of β -galactosidase staining was increased significantly and the expressions of p16 and p21 were increased (P<0.01). The expressions of pro-inflammatory cytokines (IL-1β, TNF-α) were increased (P<0.05), and the expression of anti-inflammatory cytokine (IL-10) was decreased (P<0.05) in astrocytes of the aged rats nervous tissue. Conclusion: The percoll gradient of 50% - 35% could be used as a method for separation, purification and primary culture of astrocytes. With the increase of age, astrocytes undergo cellular senescence, showing a pro-inflammatory phenotype, promoting inflammaging of the nervous system, which may be one of the mechanisms of nervous system aging and neurodegenerative diseases.
