[ABSTRACT]ObjectiveTo investigate the expression of the 70 kDa heat shock protein member 8 (HSPA8) in the nucleus pulposus tissue of human lumbar intervertebral discs (LIDs) and its correlation with the degree of degeneration of human intervertebral discs. MethodsThe nucleus pulposus tissue of human LIDs was collected from 50 cases, including 15 cases as control group and 35 cases with degenerated LIDs as experimental group. According to preoperative MRI results, the experimental group was subdivided into protrusion group (n=12), prolapse group (n=13), and sequestration group (n=10). The expression of HSPA8 in the nucleus pulposus tissue of each group was determined by Western blot, hematoxylin`-eosin staining, and immunohistochemistry. ResultsAll the results obtained from the three determination methods showed decreased expression of HSPA8 in the nucleus pulposus tissue of each group, with significant differences observed between groups (highest expression seen with the control group, successively followed by the protrusion group, the prolapse group, and the sequestration group) (F=153.52-1 662.43, all P<0.001). ConclusionHSPA8 is expressed stably in the nucleus pulposus tissue of human intervertebral discs, and its expression is correlated with the degree of degeneration of intervertebral discs.

椎間盘退变是骨科常见的疾病,据统计,全球有70%~90%的人会受到其困扰[1`-3],腰腿痛是导致人类生活质量下降、劳动力丧失的最常见原因[4`-6]。腰椎管狭窄症、腰椎间盘突出症是导致腰腿痛最常见的疾病[7]。腰椎间盘退变与遗传和环境因素有关,其特征之一就是椎间盘髓核蛋白多糖和水分含量丧失[8`-10]。热休克蛋白是一种能够在细胞核和细胞质之间穿梭的多功能蛋白[11],参与多种细胞功能的调控,是分子伴侣系统重要的一部分[12`-13]。70 kDa热休克蛋白8(HSPA8)是HSC70家族中高度保守的成员,具有多效性,对细胞的存活起着至关重要的作用,在应激反应中发挥着不可或缺的作用[14`-16]。LOEFFLER等[17]研究显示,脑脊液中的HSPA8随着年龄的增长而降低,并且与氧化应激有关。YE等[18]首次报道HSPA8在退变椎间盘纤维环细胞中表达量降低。但是,HSPA8在人腰椎间盘髓核组织是否表达及其与椎间盘退变程度的关系尚不清楚。本文研究联合应用Western`-blot、苏木精`-伊红(HE)染色、免疫组织化学方法,对人腰椎间盘髓核组织中HSPA8表达及其与腰椎间盘退变程度的关系进行研究,为腰腿痛病人的治疗提供理论依据。 1资料与方法

3讨论
腰椎退行性病变是脊柱外科常见的疾病,是随着年龄的增长自然发生的病理过程,其症状严重影响病人的日常生活,明显降低病人的生活质量[20`-22]。本文研究以腰椎间盘退变为切入点,联合应用HE染色、Western`-blot方法、免疫组织化学法检测不同退变程度的人腰椎间盘髓核组织中HSPA8的表达情况。研究结果显示,对照组腰椎间盘髓核组织中HSPA8强阳性表达,突出组中HSPA8阳性表达,脱出组中HSPA8呈弱阳性表达,游离组中HSPA8弱阳性表达或表达极少,提示HSPA8表达与人类腰椎间盘退变相关,其表达随着腰椎间盘退变的程度的加重而减少。HSPA8具有多效性,对细胞的存活起着重要的作用,尤其是参与新合成蛋白的折叠[15,23]。GOLDFA等[24]研究结果表明,HSPA8和HSP70对调节小鼠上皮钠通道起着相反的作用。与HSP70相比,HSPA8在促进膜蛋白折叠、脂质体介导的钙离子多肽易位方面更具有优势。影响HSPA8表达的因素有很多,如有机氯、镉等[15,25`-26]。YE等[18]研究结果显示,纤维环组织中HSPA8表达量减少,HSPA8等一些差异蛋白可以作为诊断腰椎间盘退变的生物学标志物。但是,目前尚无HSPA8是否在腰椎间盘髓核组织中表达及其表达量是否与腰椎间盘退变程度有关的报道。本文研究立足于腰椎间盘纤维环与HSPA8有密切联系,探讨HSPA8在腰椎间盘髓核组织中的表达及其与椎间盘退变的关系。HSPA8是新发现的与腰椎间盘退变髓核组织有关的蛋白,其特点在于表达恒定。MAKINO等[27]研究了抑制c`-Fos/AP`-1对椎间盘退行性变及相关疼痛的影响,结果显示,金属蛋白酶通过增加c`-Fos的表达来降解椎间盘中的细胞外基质,抑制细胞外组分的表达,选择性c`-Fos/AP`-1抑制剂T`-5224似乎适合作为一种治疗人类IVD变性的药物,对腰椎间盘退变的治疗起到指导性作用。姜棚菲等[28]研究显示,新型金属蛋白酶(ADAMTS`-7)、TNF`-α在腰椎间盘退行性疾病中表达量随着退变程度的加重而增加。NIKOLAOU等[29]研究显示,椎间盘退变程度的增加与人椎间盘细胞中核蛋白和胞质蛋白糖基化修饰的增加有关。JOHNSON等[30]研究结果显示,在人类退变的椎间盘组织中,水通道蛋白1和水通道蛋白5的反应较灵敏,低氧诱导因子`-1α在髓核细胞中可以维持水通道蛋白的表达,在退行性变过程中,低氧诱导因子`-1α活性降低可能抑制髓核细胞中水通道蛋白的水平,损害其对细胞外渗透压变化的反应能力。WANG等[31]研究结果显示,椎间盘退变病人髓核细胞中的miR`-154表达升高,抑制miR`-154可增加Ⅱ型胶原纤维和聚集蛋白聚糖表达,金属蛋白酶`-13和蛋白聚糖酶`-1表达下调;而过表达的miR`-154可以逆转髓核细胞的这种效应,推动椎间盘退变的进展,miR`-154可能为椎间盘退变的治疗靶点。但是HSPA8与椎间盘退变关系的研究不多,本文主要研究了HSPA8与腰椎间盘髓核组织退变程度的关系,结果显示HSPA8表达量随着椎间盘退变程度的加重而降低,可能为腰椎间盘退变疾病术前诊断及治疗提供新的方向。 综上所述,HSPA8在髓核组织中表达,且随着腰椎间盘退变程度的加重表达逐渐降低,HSPA8可能成为腰椎间盘退变严重程度的生物学检测指标之一。但是,在腰椎间盘退变过程中,究竟是通过哪条信号通路调节HSPA8的表达,有待进一步研究。
