摘要

Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a fatal disease of motor neurondegeneration in the brain and spinal cord. Progressive paralysis ofthe diaphragm and other respiratory muscles leading to respiratorydysfunction and failure is the most common cause of death in ALSpatients. Respiratory impairment has also been shown in animal modelsof ALS. Vascular pathology is another recently recognized hallmark ofALS pathogenesis. Central nervous system (CNS) capillary damage is ashared disease element in ALS rodent models and ALS patients.Microvascular impairment outside of the CNS, such as in the lungs, mayoccur in ALS, triggering lung damage and affecting breathing function.Stem cell therapy is a promising treatment for ALS. However, thistherapeutic strategy has primarily targeted rescue of degeneratedmotor neurons. We showed functional benefits from intravenous deliveryof human bone marrow (hBM) stem cells on restoration of capillaryintegrity in the CNS of an superoxide dismutase 1 (SOD1) mouse modelof ALS. Due to the widespread distribution of transplanted cells viathis route, administered cells may enter the lungs and effectivelyrestore microvasculature in this respiratory organ. Here, we providedpreliminary evidence of the potential role of microvasculaturedysfunction in prompting lung damage and treatment approaches forrepair of respiratory function in ALS. Our initial studies showedproof-of-principle that microvascular damage in ALS mice results inlung petechiae at the late stage of disease and that systemictransplantation of mainly hBM-derived endothelial progenitor cellsshows potential to promote lung restoration via re-establishedvascular integrity. Our new understanding of previously underexploredlung competence in this disease may facilitate therapy targetingrestoration of respiratory function in ALS.
