Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In the present study, we aimed to determine whether the outcome of HIE can be improved by DFAT cell treatment. 24 h after HI insult, DFAT cells were injected at 10^5 cells/pup into the right external jugular vein. The number of cells that stained positive for active caspase-3, ED-1, and 4-HNE decreased in the DFAT-treated group. The HI insult led to a motor deficit according to the rotarod treadmill and cylinder test, where it significantly affected the vehicle group, whereas no difference was confirmed between the DFAT and sham groups. According to in vitro experiments, the cell death rates in the DFAT-CM-treated cells were significantly lower than those in the controls. In the DFAT-CM, several neurotrophic factors, IGF-1、NGF、NT3 were detected, and these factors were increased in the ipsilateral brain after injection of DFAT. Our results indicate that intravenous injection with DFAT cells is effective for ameliorating HI brain injury, possibly via paracrine effects.
