    Figure Lengend Snippet: Experimental protocols for immune modulation of BSCB integrity

    Article Snippet: Microvessels were fixed with 4% PFA for 30 min and incubated overnight at 4°C with rabbit anti-TGF-β-RI polyclonal antibody (1:250; Santa Cruz Biotechnology) and rat anti-CD31 (for endothelial cells; 1:250; BD Biosciences), followed by a 60 min incubation at room temperature in fluorochrome-conjugated goat secondary antibody.

    Inflammatory mediators modulate BSCB integrity. A, Neutralizing endogenous MCP-1 with a MCP-1 antibody (3 μg for 3 d) significantly reduced the leakage of EB in the spinal cord observed at day 3 after injury. B, Intrathecal infusion of recombinant murine MCP-1 (2.5 μg for 3 d) produced an increase of EB content in the spinal cord in naive animals, similar to that seen in nerve-injured animals. Intrathecal catheterization provoked a slight, but nonsignificant increase of EB content in the spinal cord. C, IL-1β injected intravenously caused a dose-dependent impairment of BSCB permeability to EB. D, Intrathecal administration of antiinflammatory cytokines TGF-β1 (2 μg) and IL-10 (3 μg) for 3 d significantly reduced the EB content in the spinal cord increased by peripheral nerve injury. TGF-β1 did not affect the BSCB permeability in naive rats. N = 3–6/group. Values are presented as means ± SEM. *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01, ***p < 0.001 versus naive rats without any treatment; #p < 0.05 versus injured saline-treated.

    TGF-β1 alters tight junction protein levels in spinal cord microvessels. Intrathecal administration of TGF-β1 (2.5 μg for day 0 to day 3) successfully prevents the decrease in tight junction protein levels ZO-1 (A, D) and occludin (B, D) observed after peripheral nerve injury. Levels of caveolae structural component caveolin-1, however, remained unchanged (C, D). The receptor for TGF-β1 (TGF-β-RI) is found in isolated spinal cord endothelial cells, confirmed by the colocalization with vascular marker CD31. DAPI staining (blue) was used for cellular identification (E). The protein levels of the TGF-β-RI remain unchanged after peripheral nerve injury, with or without TGF-β1 infusion (F). TGF-β1 treatment induced the phosphorylation of signaling pathway proteins Smad2/3 (pSmad2/3) in spinal cord microvessels (G). Three separate experiments in which each treatment group consists of pooled microvessels from two animals were included. Values are presented as means ± SEM. *p < 0.05 versus d3 + saline. Scale bar, 10 μm.

    Peripheral nerve injury-induced disruption of BSCB provided access to circulating immune cells into the spinal cord parenchyma. A, GFP+ bone marrow-derived cells infiltrated into the spinal cords after PNI, which differentiated into Iba-1+ microglia. Intrathecal injection of TGF-β1 prevented the entrance of circulating immune cells at 14 d after nerve injury. Evidence on localization of infiltrated GFP+ bone marrow-derived cells in the parenchyma is shown by coimmunostaining with vessel marker Glut-1. Scale bars: left, 250 μm; middle, 10 μm; right, 20 μm. B, Quantitative analysis of GFP+ cells in the spinal cords of GFP chimeric mice after PNI and TGF-β1 treatment. C, To compare with naive animals, there was a marked infiltration of CD2+ and CD3+ lymphocytes into the ipsilateral side of spinal cords after peripheral nerve injury (white arrows). Intrathecal injection of TGF-β1 prevented the entrance of circulating lymphocytes at 7 d after nerve injury. Scale bar, 50 μm. D, Quantitative analysis of CD2+ and CD3+ cells in the dorsal horns of spinal cords of rats after nerve injury and TGF-β1 treatment. TGF-β1 successfully reduced the number of cells invading the spinal parenchyma. N = 6/group. Values are expressed as means ± SEM. *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01 versus controls (naive and sham); #p < 0.05, ##p < 0.01, ###p < 0.001 versus saline.
