摘要

Pulmonary injury occurring after thoracic radiotherapy is a main factor limiting the curative effect of radiotherapy. Robust activation of the Wnt signalling pathway induced by ionizing radiation stress plays a critical role in epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) in irradiated type II alveolar epithelial cells and in the proliferation of pulmonary fibroblasts, which contributes to the formation of fibrotic lesions in irradiated lungs. The pathogenesis of radiation-induced pulmonary fibrosis could be restricted by systemic delivery of human adipose-derived mesenchymal stromal cells (Ad-MSCs), as evidenced by the inhibitory effects of Ad-MSCs on EMT in irradiated type II alveolar epithelial cells. The purpose of this study is to observe the effects of mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) on repairing fibrosis caused by radiation. We used western blotting and real-time PCR to observe the expression of DKK-1 in MSCs of different origins and passages. After the successful establishment of a radiation-induced lung injury model, we investigated the potency of the supernatant from stromal cells to reduce pro-fibrotic events, including EMT and fibroblast activation. To study the mechanism, we evaluated the levels of active beta-catenin, TCF4 and the target genes Snail, Twist and c-Myc. After the injection of Ad-MSCs into mice via the tail vein, proteins related to EMT, fibroblasts and Wnt/beta-catenin signalling were investigated. The TGF-beta and IL-10 protein concentrations in peripheral blood were measured by ELISA. Ad-MSC-derived supernatant effectively reversed the decrease in E-cadherin expression and inhibited the increase in vimentin expression induced by ionizing radiation in epithelial cells and suppressed the expression of alpha-SMA, a mediator of fibroblast proliferation. The canonical Wnt pathway may be activated by irradiation but the nuclear localization of active beta-catenin was reduced in the presence of the supernatant from Ad-MSCs. In addition, the expression of target genes involved in EMT was downregulated. Additionally, when DKK-1 in the supernatant was neutralized, all these effects were reversed. Changes in the levels of proteins related to EMT and fibroblast activation, as well as those of active beta-catenin and TCF4, were similar in vivo and in vitro. The serum level of the immunosuppressive factor IL-10 was increased after radiation and was further enhanced after Ad-MSC interference for one month. In conclusion, Ad-MSCs medium can contain DKK-1 and inhibit the induction of EMT via Wnt/beta-catenin signalling in vitro and in vivo.
