Abstract

The purpose of this study was to determine whether combined intervention of treadmill exercise and bone marrow stromal cell (BMSC) transplantation would affect the expression of neurotrophic factors in the sciatic nerve injury (SNI) and neuropathic pain-related cascades in ipsilateral lumbar 4-5 dorsal root ganglion (DRG) during the early or late stage of sciatic nerve regeneration. The rats were randomly divided into the normal control group (CONT, n= 6), sedentary group (SS, n= 24), exercise group (SE, n= 24), BMSC transplantation group (SB, n= 24), BMSC transplantation+exercise group (SBE, n= 24) 1, 2, 3, and 5 weeks after SNI. Single dose of 5× 106 harvested BMSC was injected into the injury area sing by a 30 gauge needle. Treadmill exercise was performed at a speed of 8 m/min for 30 min once a day. Tropomyosin-receptor kinase B, brain-derived neurotrophic factor and ciliary neurotrophic factor were significantly upregulated in the SE and SBE groups at 1- and 2-week postinjury than those in the CONT and SS groups, and SB and SBE groups continuously kept up proinflammatory cytokines until the late stage of regeneration. Nuclear factor kappa-light-chain-enhancer of activated B cells, interleukin and tumor necrosis factor alpha in ipsilateral DRG were progressively decreased by exercise alone application and/or BMSC transplantation at early and late stage of regeneration.
Present results provide reliable information that combined intervention of treadmill exercise and BMSC transplantation might be one of the effective treatment strategies for recovering sciatic nerve injury-induced neuropathic pain over time.
