Description

Application of miRNA and human mesenchymal stem cells in preparation of medicine for treating arthritis
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the field of biomedicine, and relates to a biological small molecule and a cell, in particular to a microRNA (miRNA) for effectively delaying osteoarthritis deterioration and a human mesenchymal stem cell for autonomously and continuously expressing the miRNA.
Background
Osteoarthritis, also known as degenerative osteoarthropathy, is a chronic disease mainly involving damage of articular cartilage and affecting the whole joint tissues, and is clinically manifested as chronic disability caused by joint pain and related dysfunction. Because damaged articular cartilage has no self-repair capability, no obvious and effective method for preventing further deterioration of osteoarthritis exists in the current medicine, and most patients with advanced diseases can only select artificial joint replacement to improve the quality of life.
The structural integrity of articular cartilage is one of the important markers of cartilage health, primarily determined by the extracellular matrix of chondrocytes. Due to the stimulation of external biomechanics and biochemistry, a plurality of matrix degrading enzymes are locally generated, so that the cartilage matrix is gradually degraded, the structural integrity of the cartilage is damaged, an internal calcified layer is continuously abraded, and finally, the generation and progressive deterioration of osteoarthritis are caused.
Mesenchymal Stem Cells (MSCs) have wide sources, can self-renew and differentiate in multiple directions, have strong inflammation regulating capacity and homing capacity, migrate to tissue injury parts in a targeted manner, and secrete factors, exosomes and the like to regulate microenvironment; or the tissue cells are differentiated into specific types of tissue cells to carry out cell replacement, so that the repair of the damaged part is promoted, and the tissue cells have a wide application prospect in the treatment of various clinical diseases. However, MSCs show great heterogeneity due to differences in their donor sources, tissue sources, isolation methods and culture systems, and thus proper in vitro pretreatment-induced culture can modulate and improve the disease-specific therapeutic capabilities of MSCs. Among them, the MSCs derived from fat, skin and cord blood become ideal donors and tissue sources for MSCs culture due to easy acquisition, low tumor formation rate, high cost performance, little harm to patients and no ethical issues.
mirnas are small endogenous RNAs of about 20-24 nucleotides in length, and have a variety of important regulatory roles in vivo. The presently discovered mirnas can delay part of the pathological process of osteoarthritis through various mechanisms including regulation of target mRNA stability, endogenous inhibitory RNA pathway, etc., but are not satisfactory in terms of effective repair of chondrocytes and their matrix. Researches find that the skeletal dysfunction caused by miR-17-92 cluster gene dysfunction is accompanied with the shortening of bone units and the fusion of bone joints, and suggest that the miR-17-92 cluster gene can be a potential joint disease target. Meanwhile, the discovered miRNAs can only generate unidirectional targeting effect on specific single matrix degrading enzymes, and the discovery and identification of the miRNA which can widely target osteoarthritis-related matrix degrading enzymes are helpful for developing molecular therapeutic measures for effectively repairing osteoarthritis lesions.
At present, gradient treatment measures are clinically adopted for treating osteoarthritis, and combination treatment of staged physics, medicines and joint cavity repair surgery is adopted, and the measures can only slightly delay the development of osteoarthritis; when the disease worsens to an advanced stage, joint reconstructive surgery treatments, including expensive and complex joint replacement procedures, are required to relieve joint pain and restore joint mobility. With the development of joint replacement, more than 90% of cases have no advanced stage for more than 10 years after operation, but infection around the prosthesis at the early stage after operation and prosthesis loosening at the long stage after operation both need to be repaired again after operation, thus extremely reducing the life quality of patients. Therefore, a reversible therapeutic drug molecule or combined cell therapeutic measure with simple administration route, small wound and low operation difficulty is urgently needed to inhibit the progress of osteoarthritis.

Therefore, the miR-17-5p has wide matrix degrading enzyme targeting property, and simultaneously targets and regulates matrix metallopeptidase MMP3 and MMP13, chondroprotein ADAMTS5 and nitric oxide synthase NOS 2.
2.2 in the constructed mouse DMM model, the expression level of miR-17-5p is related to the development degree of osteoarthritis
2.2.1 mice of 10 weeks of age were anesthetized with ketamine and xylazine and subjected to a surgical procedure that transects the medial meniscal ligament of the left knee, destroying the cartilage of the left knee and inducing osteoarthritis associated with meniscal instability.

2.2.2.4 miR-17-5p-FISH detection
FISH of miR-17-5p is performed according to the international standard protocol. Digoxigenin (DIG) -labeled miR-17-5p oligonucleotide probes were purchased from Qiagen for labeling miR-17-5p molecules in tissue sections; DAPI staining was used to visualize the nuclei.
In brief, after collecting the left knee joint of the mouse, fixing the left knee joint by using 4% paraformaldehyde with mass-volume ratio concentration (g/ml), decalcifying the left knee joint by using 10% EDTA solution with mass-volume ratio concentration (g/ml), immersing the left knee joint in sucrose solution for gradient dehydration, embedding and freezing the left knee joint in a compound (OCT) with the optimal cutting temperature, and slicing the left knee joint in a thickness of 10 mu m; sections were permeabilized with proteinase K for 5 minutes at 37 ℃ and treated with 3% hydrogen peroxide water by volume concentration to block endogenous peroxidase activity; slides bearing frozen sections of cartilage tissue were then incubated overnight with the relevant probe (1 nM); finally, carrying out color development by using digoxin-peroxidase resistance (DIG-POD resistance) and Cy 3-tyramide (dissolved in hydrogen peroxide water with the volume percentage concentration of 0.001%), carrying out DAPI staining for cell nucleus color development, and further observing the statistical result;
2.2.3 introduction of the OARSI score of the International Association for osteoarthritis, scored by two observers to assess the extent of cartilage destruction, with higher scores evidencing greater severity of destruction;
2.2.4 As shown in FIG. 2A, with safranin O-fast green staining, the DMM mouse model is increased with time, and the distribution of cartilage tissues deeply stained on the surface of the bone joint is disordered and even faulted, which shows that the integrity of the cartilage tissues in the bone joint is progressively destroyed in the model; as shown in fig. 2A, loss of tissue integrity and continuity of the articular cavity surface was also observed by HE staining, indicating that the degree of articular cartilage degradation in mice progressively worsened after DMM surgery; FISH detection shows that the miR-17-5p expression quantity is remarkably reduced along with progressive worsening of the mouse articular cartilage degradation degree; as shown in fig. 2B, the OARSI score of mice in the operative group was about 2-fold that of the control group at week 4 after the operation, and stabilized at weeks 8 and 12, which was about 5-fold that of the control group; the number of miR-17-5p positive cells on the articular surface of mice in the operation group is about one half of that in the control group at the 4 th week after the operation, and the cells tend to be stable at the 8 th and 12 th weeks and are about one quarter of that in the control group. The legend and the experimental results prove that the mouse DMM model is successfully constructed, and the expression level of miR-17-5p is closely related to the deterioration degree of cartilage degradation and osteoarthritis.
2.3 miR-17-5p can inhibit osteoarthritis pathological process
2.3.1 miR-17-5p analogue can effectively repair bone joint soft tissue injury and dysfunction in mouse DMM model
2.3.1.1 mice of 10 weeks of age were anesthetized with ketamine and xylazine and subjected to surgery to transect the medial meniscal ligament of the left knee, destroying the cartilage of the left knee and inducing osteoarthritis associated with meniscal instability. The mice in the control group were only subjected to sham surgery treatment without transecting the medial meniscal ligament of the left knee joint;
2.3.1.2 Agomir-17 (1.5 nmol) was dissolved in 8. mu.l of phosphate buffer and injected into the mouse joint cavity 1 time a week for 4 times starting 4 weeks after DMM surgery; injecting Agomir-NC into mice in a control group;
2.3.1.3 at 8 weeks after DMM surgery, the left knee joints of three groups of mice (sham surgery group, surgery and Agomir-NC injection group, surgery and Agomir-17 injection group) were collected after euthanasia, fixed for 48 hours after 4% paraformaldehyde in mass-to-volume concentration (g/ml), then decalcified for 10 days with 10% Ethylene Diamine Tetraacetic Acid (EDTA) solution in mass-to-volume concentration (g/ml), the trimmed tissues and corresponding labels were placed in a dehydration box, embedded with paraffin after dehydration, further sliced and dewaxed to distilled water, and the structural integrity of articular cavity cartilage tissues was examined by safranin O-fast green staining, the operation was the same as 2.2.2.1-2 in example 1;
2.3.1.4 As shown in figure 3A, in the mouse DMM model, after 4 weeks of joint cavity injection treatment of miR-17-5p analogue Agomir-17, the articular cartilage layer structure is complete, while the cartilage tissue in the Agomir-NC treatment group is unevenly distributed and discontinuous, and the integrity is destroyed; accordingly, the OARSI score for the Agomir-17 treatment group was significantly lower than for the Agomir-NC treatment group, tending towards the sham group;
