Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present application relates to the field of medical technology, and in particular to a new use of salidroside in preventing premature aging of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells induced by oxidative stress. Background Art
[0002] Bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells are non-hematopoietic pluripotent stem cells with differentiation ability derived from bone marrow. They have become commonly used seed cells in the field of stem cells and regenerative medicine due to their low immunogenicity, easy access to materials, and stable biological properties. However, bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells are very prone to aging during in vitro culture and transplantation, which is a more difficult problem that limits their clinical application and is also one of the reasons for the high cost of clinical use of cells.
[0003] With the increase of in vitro passage times, mesenchymal stem cells can age rapidly: cell morphology changes, proliferation ability weakens, stemness gradually disappears, etc. Studies have shown that compared with the 5th generation of mesenchymal stem cells, the proliferation ability of the 15th generation cells is reduced, the number of aging-related β-galactosidase-positive cells increases, and the expression of aging-related genes is upregulated. The aging of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells leads to problems such as low transplantation migration rate and survival rate, poor differentiation function, etc., which seriously affects the effect of transplantation treatment.
[0004] Therefore, finding a method that can effectively delay the aging of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells has important application value in breaking the bottleneck of their clinical transplantation for disease treatment.
[0005] Oxidative stress-induced premature aging is caused by excessive free radical production and imbalance of the antioxidant defense system in the body, leading to premature aging of cells and tissues, involving multiple cellular and molecular mechanisms. In recent years, research on premature aging induced by oxidative stress has made significant progress. Many studies have confirmed that oxidative stress not only plays an important role in the natural aging process, but also aggravates cell and tissue damage in the early stages of many diseases. The research and development of anti-aging drugs based on the oxidative stress mechanism has also made certain progress. For example, the mTOR inhibitor rapamycin and the AMPK activator metformin have been preliminarily confirmed to have the potential to delay aging. In addition, the anti-aging effects of natural products such as resveratrol and curcumin are also being verified in clinical trials. In the future, the combination of modern scientific and technological means such as precision medicine, systems biology and regenerative medicine is expected to delay the premature aging process and improve human quality of life and healthy life span.
[0006] Rhodiola rosea belongs to the genus Rhodiola of the Crassulaceae family. It has the effects of strengthening the body and replenishing qi, promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis, resisting hypoxia, enhancing immune function and bidirectional regulation. It is mainly used for qi deficiency and blood stasis, chest pain, hemiplegia due to stroke, fatigue and asthma. The chemical components of Rhodiola rosea include phenylpropanoid compounds, flavonoid compounds, polysaccharide compounds, alkaloids, linalool compounds, volatile oils and organic acids. Salidroside is one of the representative active ingredients of Rhodiola rosea. The chemical name of Salidroside is: 2-(4-Hydroxyphenyl)-3,4-dihydroxybutanoic acid-1-O-β-D-glucopyranoside, and the chemical structure is (2R,3R)-2-(4-hydroxyphenyl)-3,4-dihydroxybutyronitrile-1-O-β-D-glucoside. Whether Rhodiola rosea can prevent the premature aging of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells induced by oxidative stress needs further confirmation.

[0056] The following is combined with Figure 1-6 This application is described in further detail.
[0057] The present application discloses a novel use of salidroside for preventing premature aging of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells induced by oxidative stress. Figure 1 A new use of salidroside for preventing premature aging of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells induced by oxidative stress, the implementation process of prevention includes materials, instruments and implementation methods; materials and instruments include reagents, antibodies, primers and instruments; implementation methods include bone marrow mesenchymal stem cell recovery and culture and generation age calculation, CCK8 method for detecting cell viability, free radical inducer-induced premature aging model of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells, flow cytometry detection of cell reactive oxygen free radical levels, Western Blot was used to detect the expression of aging-related proteins, qRT-PCR was used to detect the expression of aging-related genes, β-galactosidase staining and statistical analysis were performed, bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells were isolated and cultured in vitro, and bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells were treated with free radical inducers. AAPH produces free radicals by thermal decomposition at physiological temperature. These free radicals can attack proteins or lipids to induce peroxidation reactions and ultimately lead to oxidative damage, inducing premature cellular aging. Different doses of Rhodiola rosea extract were used for intervention to explore the intervention effect of Rhodiola rosea extract on free radical-induced premature aging.

[0061] The reagent system optimizes experimental steps such as cell culture, protein extraction, gene quantification, immunoblotting and cell aging detection. Through precise configuration and scientific selection of various key reagents, the reliability, repeatability and stability of the experiment are effectively improved. The concentration of trypsin-EDTA digestion solution is 0.25%, which effectively digests and disperses cells, promotes the separation of rat bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells, does not cause excessive damage to cells, and ensures cell activity.

[0070] Reference Figure 1 In the Western blot, the expression of aging-related proteins was detected, including total protein extraction, protein concentration determination, protein denaturation treatment, SDS-PAGE protein electrophoresis and immunoblotting;
[0071] The method for extracting total protein is to take bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells in the logarithmic growth phase and inoculate them in a 12-well plate at 5×104 / well. After 24 hours, the old culture medium is discarded, and cells are pretreated with drugs containing different concentrations for 12 hours. After that, the cells are treated with AAPH for 24 hours, and the medium containing drugs is replaced and cultured for 72 hours. The cell culture medium is removed, and the cells are washed with 1mL PBS and then the PBS is removed. 100μL RIPA lysis buffer is added to each well, and the cells are allowed to stand at 4℃ for 30 minutes to complete cell lysis. Use a cell scraper to gently scrape the cells, transfer them to a 1.5mL centrifuge tube, centrifuge at 12000rpm at 4℃ for 15 minutes, and then transfer the supernatant to a new 1.5mL centrifuge tube, which is the total protein sample obtained;
[0072] The method for determining protein concentration is to prepare a working solution by mixing BCA reagent and Cu reagent in a ratio of 50:1 according to the instructions of the BCA protein quantification kit, taking a 5 mg / mL BSA standard solution, diluting it to 0.5 mg / mL with PBS, adding different volumes of standard protein to a 96-well plate to prepare a standard curve, adding 2 μL of extracted protein sample to each well to be tested, filling it up to a total volume of 20 μL with PBS, adding 200 μL of BCA working solution and incubating at 37°C for 30 min, measuring the absorbance at a wavelength of 562 nm, calculating the sample protein concentration according to the BSA standard curve, and unifying the samples to the same concentration for later use;
[0073] The protein denaturation treatment method is to mix the protein sample with 5× Loading Buffer in a volume ratio of 4:1, then heat it in a 100°C metal bath for 8 min for denaturation, centrifuge it at low speed after mixing, and store it in a -20°C refrigerator;
[0074] The method of SDS-PAGE protein electrophoresis is to prepare separation gel and concentration gel in sequence. Select a comb with the appropriate number of holes according to the experimental requirements. The prepared gel should be stored in electrophoresis buffer at 4°C or used directly. After thawing the protein sample, gently shake and mix it and centrifuge it at a low speed. After adding the protein sample, run it at 80V for 30 minutes, then adjust it to 120V and continue electrophoresis for 60 minutes;
[0075] The immunoblotting method is:
[0076] 1. According to the size of the gel, cut 2 layers of filter paper and 1 PVDF membrane in advance. Soak the PVDF membrane in methanol for 2 minutes, and then soak the filter paper in transfer buffer. After the electrophoresis is completed, carefully remove the gel and place it in transfer buffer, and then perform semi-dry or wet transfer.
[0077] 2. The semi-dry method is as follows: Place a layer of filter paper on the anode of the semi-dry transfer apparatus, place the PVDF membrane on it, place the glue on the membrane, and then place the filter paper. Align the layers strictly, remove bubbles, and finally cover the cathode of the transfer apparatus. Perform electrotransfer at 0.65-0.80 mA / cm2 for 2 hours. Use semi-dry or wet transfer methods to ensure that the protein can be effectively transferred to the PVDF membrane. Strict control of the transfer process improves the transfer efficiency of the protein on the membrane and ensures the sensitivity of subsequent antibody detection.
[0078] 3. Wet transfer is as follows: Pre-cool the transfer buffer in a 4°C refrigerator. Lay out a "sandwich" according to the transfer instructions: Place the gray electrotransfer box downward, align the pad, filter paper, glue, and PVDF membrane soaked in transfer buffer in sequence, and then cover with filter paper and pad, and use a glass rod to gently remove bubbles. After the electrotransfer box is installed, put it into the electrotransfer tank, install the cooling box, add about 500ml of transfer buffer, and transfer the membrane at 320mA for 1 hour;
[0079] 4. After the transfer, remove the membrane, soak it in methanol for a while to fully fix the protein on the PVDF membrane, and then put it in TBST containing 5% skim milk powder and shake for 1 hour to block. The blocked membrane is placed in a hybridization bag and reacted with the primary antibody solution at room temperature for 1 hour or at 4°C overnight, and then washed 3 times with TBST containing 0.1% Tween 20 for 5 minutes each time to wash away the unbound antibody;
[0080] 5. In a new hybridization bag, react with horseradish peroxidase-labeled secondary antibody solution at room temperature for 1 hour, then wash 3 times with TBST 5 minutes each time;
[0081] 6. Finally, the protein was detected by chemiluminescence, and the color was developed according to the instructions of the ECLPLUS immunoblotting kit. The image was captured by the Chemi Imager 5500 gel imaging system.

[0083] Reference Figure 1 In the qRT-PCR test of aging-related gene expression, the total RNA of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells in different treatment groups was obtained by RNA rapid extraction kit, and cDNA was obtained by reverse transcription; cDNA was used as template, and the expression of aging-related genes was detected by qRT-PCR. The PCR reaction system was prepared according to the instructions of the PremixEx TaqTM Fluorescence Quantification Kit. The transcription levels of genes related to the aging pathway (p16, p21, and p53) were detected using a Roche real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR instrument. The RNA rapid extraction kit was used to extract high-purity total RNA in a short time, reducing the risk of RNA degradation and providing a stable and reliable RNA sample for subsequent experiments. The RNA was transcribed into cDNA using a high-efficiency reverse transcriptase to ensure that the generated cDNA had high fidelity and retained the original mRNA sequence information, providing an accurate template for subsequent gene expression detection. Premix Ex TaqTM fluorescence quantitative kit can quickly detect the transcription level of low-abundance genes with high sensitivity. It is suitable for the analysis of expression changes of aging-related genes. It uses efficient fluorescence quantitative PCR technology to optimize primer design and reaction conditions to ensure high amplification specificity of target genes such as p16, p21, and p53, significantly reduce the impact of nonspecific amplification, and detect the changes in fluorescence intensity during gene amplification by real-time fluorescence signal, which can accurately reflect the expression level of the target gene and avoid data deviations that may be caused by endpoint detection. For classic aging pathway genes such as p16, p21 and p53, qRT-PCR can efficiently and quantitatively detect their transcription levels, directly reflecting the dynamic changes of cell aging status. The Ct value data generated by the fluorescence quantitative PCR instrument can be used to calculate the relative expression of the target gene. Combined with reference genes such as GAPDH or β-actin, the difference in gene expression can be intuitively displayed.

[0132] The implementation principle of a new use of salidroside in the present application embodiment for preventing premature aging of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells induced by oxidative stress is as follows: oxidative stress refers to the accumulation of free radicals such as reactive oxygen species (ROS), which causes oxidation reactions in molecules within cells, damages cell structure and function, and then induces aging. In bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs), oxidative stress accelerates cell aging, causes decreased stem cell function, and affects tissue repair and regeneration. As a natural antioxidant ingredient, salidroside can scavenge reactive oxygen species and free radicals, slow down or prevent oxidative stress damage to stem cells, and thereby inhibit premature aging of stem cells. It can reduce the damage of free radicals to cells through direct or indirect mechanisms, and reduce the level of reactive oxygen species and oxidative damage by increasing the activity of intracellular antioxidant enzymes (such as SOD, GPX, etc.). It can scavenge free radicals, inhibit The cell aging and dysfunction caused by oxidative stress are alleviated by inhibiting lipid peroxidation and other pathways. Free radicals are generated at physiological temperature by free radical inducers (such as AAPH) to simulate oxidative stress conditions and establish a premature aging model of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells. The accumulation of free radicals in cells will lead to oxidative damage, causing peroxidation of DNA, proteins and lipids, thereby accelerating the cell aging process. Under oxidative stress conditions, salidroside is used to observe its effect in reducing free radicals and inhibiting the expression of aging-related proteins and genes. The expression of aging markers (such as β-galactosidase, p53, p16, p21, etc.) is reduced through antioxidant effects, thereby delaying or reversing the cell aging process. The total protein and RNA of the cells are extracted by using reagents such as trypsin-EDTA digestion solution and RIPA lysis solution to ensure the accuracy and reliability of the experimental data, and the Western blot is used to detect the expression of salidroside. The expression levels of senescence-related proteins were detected by blot, and the transcription levels of senescence-related genes were detected by qRT-PCR. The molecular mechanism of cell senescence after salidroside intervention was analyzed. Senescent cells usually show enhanced β-galactosidase activity. After salidroside intervention, the proportion of senescent cells can be detected by staining to evaluate the anti-aging effect of salidroside. Salidroside can directly remove free radicals or activate the intracellular antioxidant enzyme system. Salidroside reduces oxidative stress response, inhibits oxidative damage, and inhibits the expression of senescence-related genes such as p16INK4a, p21CIP1 and p53, reduces cell cycle arrest and cell death, and improves cell activity. Salidroside prevents and delays premature senescence of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells induced by oxidative stress through antioxidant effects.
[0133] The technical scheme adopted in this application is as follows: bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells are isolated and cultured in vitro, and the bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells are treated with a free radical inducer AAPH. AAPH generates free radicals by thermal decomposition at physiological temperature. These free radicals can attack proteins or lipids to induce peroxidation reactions and ultimately lead to oxidative damage, inducing premature aging of cells. Different doses of Rhodiola rosea extract are used for intervention to explore the intervention effect of Rhodiola rosea extract on free radical-induced premature aging. Through the detection of intracellular reactive oxygen free radical levels, aging-related β-galactosidase staining, and aging-related signaling pathway molecules such as p53 / p21 and p16 / Rb, it is found that salidroside has the effect of improving premature aging of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells induced by oxidative stress.
[0134] The results of biological experiments show that:
[0135] 1. Salidroside alone treated BM-MSCs 72 and showed no obvious cytotoxicity at 0-100 μM.
[0136] 2. Salidroside can improve the premature aging characteristics of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells induced by oxidative stress. Specifically, at 5-20 μM, it can significantly reduce the increase in the level of reactive oxygen species in BM-MSCs induced by AAPH, significantly inhibit the expression of p53, p21, and p16, and reduce the positive rate of aging-related β-galactosidase.
[0137] The technical advantages and new uses of a new use of salidroside in the present application embodiment for preventing premature aging of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells induced by oxidative stress are as follows:
[0138] 1. Prevent premature aging of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells: Salidroside significantly reduces free radical-induced aging of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells by effectively intervening in the oxidative stress process, and delays their premature aging process. This effect was confirmed by the detection of intracellular reactive oxygen free radical levels, β-galactosidase staining, and aging-related genes and proteins;
[0139] 2. Improve cell activity: Salidroside can significantly improve the survival rate of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells under oxidative stress, reduce the oxidative damage of free radicals to cells, and promote cell proliferation and function maintenance. The cell activity was detected by CCK-8 method, and the experimental results showed that Salidroside has a good cell protection effect within a certain dosage range;
[0140] 3. Inhibit activation of aging-related signaling pathways: Salidroside can regulate key aging-related signaling pathways, including p53, p16INK4a, and p21CIP1. Western blot and qRT-PCR test results showed that Salidroside can significantly reduce the expression levels of these aging-related genes and proteins, thereby effectively inhibiting the aging process;
[0141] 4. Improve the reliability and repeatability of the experiment: By optimizing the reagent system and experimental steps, the stability, reliability and high repeatability of the experiment are ensured. The optimization of key steps such as cell culture, protein extraction, gene quantification, and immunoblotting ensures the accuracy and consistency of the experimental data;
[0142] 5. Improvement of cell senescence detection methods: Using cell senescence-related detection methods, such as β-galactosidase staining, flow cytometry, Western blot, and qRT-PCR technology, the assessment of cell senescence is more intuitive and accurate, providing a reliable technical means for aging research;
[0143] 6. Dose-dependent effect of salidroside: Through intervention experiments with different doses of salidroside, its protective effect at different concentrations was revealed, providing an optimal dose range and providing a basis for subsequent clinical application or further research;
[0144] 7. Innovative aging models and intervention strategies: The oxidative stress-induced premature aging model of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells provides a new experimental model for aging research, and the strategy of intervention with salidroside demonstrates actual anti-aging effects at the cellular level, which has high potential for clinical transformation.
[0145] 8. Through a series of biological experiments, it was found and proved that salidroside has a significant effect in preventing premature aging of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells induced by oxidative stress at a dose without obvious cytotoxicity. It is expected to be developed into a drug that effectively delays the aging of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells, which has important application value in breaking the bottleneck of clinical transplantation for disease treatment.
