- AIMS: Frailty has recently been associated with postoperative complications and clinical outcomes in various fields. This study aimed to assess the relationships between frailty and surgical outcomes of palliative surgery for spinal metastases and assess the usefulness of the modified five-item frailty index (mFI-5) in this population. METHODS: We prospectively evaluated 273 patients who underwent spinal metastasis surgery from June 2015 to December 2021. The mFI-5 was used to assess frailty, with a score of 0 defined as non-frailty, 1 as pre-frailty, and 2 or more as frailty. The following variables were assessed: background characteristics, complications (Clavien-Dindo grade 2 or higher), postoperative clinical outcomes, and life expectancy. The clinical outcomes compared between the three groups were the performance status (PS), Barthel index, and EuroQoL five-dimension questionnaire (EQ-5D) at six months postoperatively. A multivariate stepwise logistic regression analysis was performed of variables with values of p < 0.1 on the univariate analysis. RESULTS: The overall complication rate was 19% (52/273). The complication rate was significantly higher in the frailty group (p = 0.005), and patients with a greater mFI-5 score tended to have a higher incidence of postoperative complications. The Kaplan-Meier curve showed that the non-frailty group had a significantly longer survival time than the pre-frailty and frailty groups (p < 0.001). Multivariate logistic regression analysis suggested that mFI-5 is not predictive of postoperative complications and improvement of the EQ-5D, while is predictive of improvement of the PS (odds ratio (OR) 4.22) and Barthel index (OR 4.49). CONCLUSION: The current study suggested that mFI-5 is not predictive of postoperative complications and improvement of the EQ-5D, while is predictive of improvement of the PS and Barthel index. Furthermore, palliative surgery for spinal metastases improved the PS, Barthel index, and EQ-5D, even in patients with frailty.2025年10月, Bone & joint open, 6(10) (10), 1199 - 1207, 英語, 国際誌研究論文(学術雑誌)
- The DNA synthesis inhibitor zoliflodacin (ZFD) is expected to be effective against strains resistant to therapeutic agents for Neisseria gonorrhoeae infection. In addition to ZFD, we investigated the susceptibility of N. gonorrhoeae strains to ceftriaxone (CTRX), ciprofloxacin (CPFX), garenoxacin (GRNX), and sitafloxacin (STFX). Minimum inhibitory concentration values for ZFD and four other drugs were determined for 147 strains of N. gonorrhoeae isolated at medical institutions in Hyogo Prefecture, Japan, from 2015 to 2022. Amino acid alterations in gyrA, gyrB, parC, and parE were examined by polymerase chain reaction and sequencing analysis. Sequence type (ST) was determined for epidemiological analysis, and N. gonorrhoeae strains were classified. The non-susceptibility rate was not observed in CTRX. The lowest non-susceptibility rate was observed in ZFD (39.5%) compared to CPFX (80.3%), GRNX (83.7%), and STFX (65.3%) (all p < 0.0001). The most common amino acid alterations in gyrA and parC had non-susceptibility rates exceeding 80% to quinolones except ZFD, suggesting that these alterations may have influenced the resistance trend. STs were different between isolates in 2015 and those in 2020 and later. ZFD showed potent antimicrobial activity against N. gonorrhoeae strains that are highly resistant to quinolones. It may become a new option in the treatment of gonococcal infections.2025年08月, Pathogens (Basel, Switzerland), 14(8) (8), 英語, 国際誌研究論文(学術雑誌)
- PURPOSE: Retro-odontoid pseudotumor (ROP) is a condition characterized by benign soft tissue proliferation at the odontoid process due to mechanical stress in the atlantoaxial joint, often represented by atlantoaxial subluxation (AAS). However, the pathogenesis of ROP remains unclear, as AAS can also occur without ROP. The purpose of this study is to clarify the pathogenesis of ROP in patients with AAS by analyzing imaging findings in patients without rheumatoid arthritis who underwent surgery for AAS and/or ROP. METHODS: A multicenter cross-sectional study was conducted. Patients without rheumatoid arthritis who underwent surgery for AAS and/or ROP at three university hospitals between 2010 and 2022 were enrolled in this study. Patients were divided into two groups: the ROP group, comprising patients with AAS and ROP, and the non-ROP group, comprising those with AAS without ROP. Patient demographics and preoperative imaging findings, including plain radiography, multidetector computed tomography, and magnetic resonance imaging, were compared between the two groups. RESULTS: The ROP group included 32 patients (age: 75.6 ± 7.7 years; 23 male and 9 female patients), while the non-ROP group comprised 18 patients (age: 70.5 ± 14.6 years; 9 male and 9 female patients). No significant differences were observed between the two groups in terms of age, sex, or history of cervical spine surgery. However, the O-C2 angle in the extension position and C2-C7 sagittal vertical axis were significantly larger in the ROP group than in the non-ROP group. Additionally, degeneration of the facet joints and intervertebral discs in the subaxial cervical spine was significantly more advanced in the ROP group than in the non-ROP group. CONCLUSION: In patients with AAS, the anterior translation of the cervical spine, as well as the progressive degeneration of the subaxial cervical facet joints and intervertebral discs, may increase mechanical stress on the atlantoaxial joint, contributing to the development of ROP.2025年07月, European spine journal : official publication of the European Spine Society, the European Spinal Deformity Society, and the European Section of the Cervical Spine Research Society, 英語, 国際誌研究論文(学術雑誌)
- INTRODUCTION: Some cases of postoperative correction loss have been observed in the reduction of vertebral slippage using a percutaneous pedicle screw system for lumbar degenerative spondylolisthesis. We aimed to identify the risk factors for correction loss after minimally invasive transforaminal lumbar interbody fusion (MIS-TLIF) and to determine the effect of postoperative correction loss on postoperative clinical outcomes. METHODS: In this retrospective study, a total of 111 patients (mean age 69.5 years, 37 men and 74 women) who underwent single-level MIS-TLIF with slippage reduction for lumbar degenerative spondylolisthesis and were followed up for >1 year were included in the study. The correction loss group (group L) included those with a correction loss of ≥3 mm between immediately after surgery and 1 year after surgery, and the correction maintenance group (group M) included those with a correction loss <3 mm. Demographic data, preoperative and postoperative radiographic measurements, and clinical outcomes were collected, and the risk factors in group L and clinical outcomes in the two groups were analyzed statistically. RESULTS: Groups L and M comprised 19 and 92 cases, respectively. High pelvic incidence-lumbar lordosis (odds ratio [OR]: 1.16, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.07-1.25, p<0.001), high slip vertebra slope (OR: 1.22, 95% CI: 1.07-1.39, p<0.001), and ≥10° segmental angulation (OR: 15.00, 95% CI: 3.04-73.95, p=0.0022) were risk factors for correction loss; however, low bone density was not. The Oswestry Disability Index and Visual Analog Scale scores for low back pain, leg pain, and leg numbness were not significantly different between both groups; however, the bone union rate at 6 months postoperatively was significantly lower in group L (p=0.0020). CONCLUSIONS: Postoperative correction loss was influenced by preoperative sagittal alignment and instability rather than bone density. Patients with correction loss tend to have prolonged bone union and should be closely monitored.2025年07月, Spine surgery and related research, 9(4) (4), 443 - 452, 英語, 国内誌研究論文(学術雑誌)
- PURPOSE: To identify differences in severe pain levels during prepregnancy to four months postpartum among groups along with risk factors for residual pain early in pregnancy. METHODS: We examined 298 patients who participated in the questionnaire. Pain intensity was evaluated using a numerical rating scale (NRS) monthly postpartum. Four patterns emerged: recovery group (n = 200), with NRS 0-3 at 4 months postpartum; keep-high group (n = 20), with NRS ≥ 6 every month after delivery; worse group (n = 28), where NRS increased ≥ 3 during months 1-4; and mixed group (n = 50). Age, body mass index (BMI), history of back pain, breastfeeding, feeding posture, depression, and postpartum stress factors were compared. RESULTS: Overall, 15% patients had pain with NRS ≥ 4 before pregnancy and 33% at 4 months postpartum. NRS score of the keep-high group was the highest (4.18) before pregnancy, with a distinctive pain pattern. For participants with NRS ≥ 4 before pregnancy, the odds ratio of NRS ≥ 7 in the final month was 5.56 [95% confidence interval: 2.52-12.58, p < 0.001]. All three groups compared with the recovery group demonstrated significant differences in the questionnaires for depression (p < 0.01) and postpartum stress factors (p < 0.05). The combination of lower back and back pain was an early indicator of severe postpartum pain. CONCLUSION: Higher NRS scores before pregnancy and at multiple pain sites are early indicators of severe postpartum pain. All three groups, except the recovery group, showed a tendency for depression. However, the mixed group exhibited features similar to the recovery group.2025年07月, European spine journal : official publication of the European Spine Society, the European Spinal Deformity Society, and the European Section of the Cervical Spine Research Society, 34(7) (7), 2555 - 2561, 英語, 国際誌研究論文(学術雑誌)
- Background: Postoperative wound dehiscence is a major complication following spinal metastasis surgery, particularly in patients who receive preoperative radiotherapy or molecular-targeted therapy; however, preventive strategies remain limited. Objective: In this study, we aimed to identify the risk factors for postoperative wound dehiscence and evaluate the clinical utility of a novel curved skin incision (CSI) technique, designed to avoid irradiated areas, in comparison with the conventional midline incision (MI) technique. Methods: Logistic regression analysis was conducted on 107 patients who underwent MI between 2013 and 2018. Based on the results, we developed the CSI technique. Propensity score matching was performed to compare postoperative wound dehiscence in 29 matched pairs of patients treated with either CSI or MI from 2019 to 2021. Results: Preoperative radiotherapy and molecular-targeted therapy were found to be significant risk factors for wound dehiscence. CSI, which circumvents irradiated skin, was associated with a substantially lower rate of wound dehiscence than MI. Conclusions: The CSI technique offers a simple, reproducible, and effective surgical approach to reduce postoperative wound complications in high-risk patients. Its clinical benefit, especially for those with prior radiotherapy, suggests that it may serve as a valuable addition to standard spinal metastasis surgery.2025年06月, Cancers, 17(12) (12), 英語, 国際誌研究論文(学術雑誌)
- BACKGROUND: Pediatric lumbar spondylolysis (LS) is common in junior and senior high school athletes. Lower LS (L4-L5 level) is more common in children, and upper LS (L1-L3 level) is relatively rare; therefore, the pathogenesis of upper LS remains unclear. PURPOSE: To elucidate the mechanisms of upper LS by identifying and comparing characteristics between upper and lower LS cases. STUDY DESIGN/SETTING: Retrospective cross-sectional study. PATIENT SAMPLE: This study included 842 pediatric patients aged ˂18 years diagnosed with single-level acute LS at a single outpatient clinic between 2015 and 2022. OUTCOME MEASURES: The rate of upper LS, age, sex, participation in flexibility sports, presence of spina bifida occulta (SBO), and radiological parameters including lumber lordosis, L1-L4 lordosis, L4-S1 lordosis, and sacral slope. METHODS: We retrospectively analyzed the data of all patients with acute LS diagnosed using plain radiography, multidetector computed tomography, and magnetic resonance imaging. The upper and lower LS groups were subsequently compared using univariate and multivariate analyses to investigate factors associated with upper LS. RESULTS: Of the included 842 patients, 88 (10.5%) had upper LS. Multivariate analysis showed that older age (odds ratio, 1.62; p<.001), flexibility sports participation (odds ratio, 2.50; p=.041), lower prevalence of SBO (odds ratio, 0.49; p=.011), increased L1-L4 lordosis (odds ratio, 1.16; p<.001), and decreased L4-S1 lordosis (odds ratio, 0.84; p<.001) were significantly associated with upper LS development. CONCLUSIONS: Patients with upper LS had clearly different characteristics from those with lower LS in terms of age, participation in flexibility sports, presence of SBO, and segmental lordosis of the lumbar spine. This study will help further research in elucidating the mechanisms of upper LS.2025年06月, The spine journal : official journal of the North American Spine Society, 25(6) (6), 1188 - 1195, 英語, 国際誌研究論文(学術雑誌)
- BACKGROUND: Transient receptor potential vanilloid 4 (TRPV4) has been identified as a Ca2+-permeable channel and is activated under physiological mechanical stimulation in disc nucleus pulposus (NP) cells. Meanwhile, the Ca2+-dependent AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK)/mTOR pathway activates autophagy in notochordal cells. We hypothesized that TRPV4 is involved in the maintenance of intradiscal homeostasis via autophagy. Our objective was to elucidate the role of TRPV4 in extracellular matrix (ECM) metabolism and autophagy in the rat intervertebral disc through a loss-of-function study with the RNA interference (RNAi) technique. METHODS: In vitro study: Small interfering RNA (siRNA) was applied to knockdown TRPV4 by the reverse transfection method in rat disc NP cells. Expression of TRPV4, AMPK/mTOR pathway-related markers, and autophagy markers were measured by Western blotting (WB). Next, ECM metabolism was assessed under serum starvation and/or proinflammatory interleukin-1 beta (IL-1β) stimulation. In vivo study: TRPV4 and control siRNAs were injected into rat discs. To confirm in vivo transfection, WB for TRPV4 was conducted in rat disc NP-tissue protein extracts 2, 28, and 56 days after injection. Furthermore, 24-h temporary static compression-induced disruption of TRPV4 siRNA-injected discs was observed by radiography, histomorphology, and immunofluorescence. RESULTS: In vitro study: In disc cells, three different TRPV4 siRNAs consistently suppressed autophagy with TRPV4 protein knockdown (mean 33.2% [95% CI: -50.8, -15.5], 44.1% [-61.7, -26.4], 58.3% [-76.0, -40.7]). ECM metabolism was significantly suppressed by TRPV4 RNAi under proinflammatory IL-1β stimulation. In vivo study: The WB displayed sustained decreases in TRPV4 protein expression 2, 28, and 56 days after injection. Under the loaded condition, TRPV4 siRNA-injected discs presented radiographic height loss ([-31.7, -7.75]), histomorphological damage ([0.300, 4.70]), and immunofluorescent suppression of autophagy ([1.61, 20.5]) and ECM metabolism ([-25.2, -6.41]) compared to control siRNA-injected discs at 56 days. CONCLUSIONS: The TRPV4 could be a therapeutic target for intervertebral disc diseases via modulating autophagy.2025年03月, JOR spine, 8(1) (1), e70046, 英語, 国際誌研究論文(学術雑誌)
- STUDY DESIGN: Retrospective case-control study. OBJECTIVE: To determine risk factors for recurrence of pediatric lumbar spondylolysis at L5 after return to sport in patients who achieved bone union with conservative treatment. SUMMARY OF BACKGROUND DATA: Pediatric lumbar spondylolysis is a stress fracture commonly observed in adolescent athletes, particularly at the L5 vertebra. Because some patients experience a recurrence of spondylolysis after bone fusion with conservative treatment, identifying risk factors for recurrence may help athletes continue sports activities, maintain performance levels, and preserve mental health. METHODS: Of the 375 pediatric patients (<18 years of age) who received conservative treatment for lumbar spondylolysis at L5 between 2015 and 2021, 296 patients who achieved bone fusion and returned to their original sports activities were analyzed. Recurrence rate, sports, pathological stage of spondylolysis at initial examination, presence of spina bifida occulta (SBO), duration of conservative treatment for initial spondylolysis, and radiological parameters including lumber lordosis, L5-S1 lordosis, and sacral slope were examined. Recurrence and non-recurrence groups were compared using univariate and multivariate analyses to investigate risk factors for recurrence. A receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was drawn to determine cut-off values of the parameters to predict spondylolysis recurrence. RESULTS: Recurrence was observed in 52 out of 296 patients (17.6%). Multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed that a large L5-S1 lordosis was a significant independent risk factor for recurrence. ROC analysis demonstrated a cut-off value of 24.5° for L5-S1 lordosis. Age, sex, SBO, and duration of conservative treatment for initial spondylolysis were not significant predictors of recurrence. CONCLUSION: We identified large L5-S1 lordosis as an independent risk factor for recurrence of pediatric lumbar spondylolysis at L5 following conservative treatment. Intensive athletic rehabilitation to prevent recurrence and follow-up measures to monitor and detect recurrence are recommended for patients with large L5-S1 lordosis.2025年02月, Spine, 英語, 国際誌研究論文(学術雑誌)

- The mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR), a serine/threonine kinase, promotes cell growth and inhibits autophagy. The following two complexes contain mTOR: mTORC1 with the regulatory associated protein of mTOR (RAPTOR) and mTORC2 with the rapamycin-insensitive companion of mTOR (RICTOR). The phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K)/Akt/mTOR signaling pathway is important in the intervertebral disk, which is the largest avascular, hypoxic, low-nutrient organ in the body. To examine gene-silencing therapeutic approaches targeting PI3K/Akt/mTOR signaling in degenerative disk cells, an in vitro comparative study was designed between small interfering RNA (siRNA)-mediated RNA interference (RNAi) and clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeat (CRISPR)-CRISPR-associated protein 9 (Cas9) gene editing. Surgically obtained human disk nucleus pulposus cells were transfected with a siRNA or CRISPR-Cas9 plasmid targeting mTOR, RAPTOR, or RICTOR. Both of the approaches specifically suppressed target protein expression; however, the 24-h transfection efficiency differed by 53.8-60.3% for RNAi and 88.1-89.3% for CRISPR-Cas9 (p < 0.0001). Targeting mTOR, RAPTOR, and RICTOR all induced autophagy and inhibited apoptosis, senescence, pyroptosis, and matrix catabolism, with the most prominent effects observed with RAPTOR CRISPR-Cas9. In the time-course analysis, the 168-h suppression ratio of RAPTOR protein expression was 83.2% by CRISPR-Cas9 but only 8.8% by RNAi. While RNAi facilitates transient gene knockdown, CRISPR-Cas9 provides extensive gene knockout. Our findings suggest that RAPTOR/mTORC1 is a potential therapeutic target for degenerative disk disease.2024年12月, Cells, 13(23) (23), 英語, 国際誌研究論文(学術雑誌)
- AIMS: Frailty has been gathering attention as a factor to predict surgical outcomes. However, the association of frailty with postoperative complications remains controversial in spinal metastases surgery. We therefore designed a prospective study to elucidate risk factors for postoperative complications with a focus on frailty. METHODS: We prospectively analyzed 241 patients with spinal metastasis who underwent palliative surgery from June 2015 to December 2021. Postoperative complications were assessed by the Clavien-Dindo classification; scores of ≥ Grade II were defined as complications. Data were collected regarding demographics (age, sex, BMI, and primary cancer) and preoperative clinical factors (new Katagiri score, Frankel grade, performance status, radiotherapy, chemotherapy, spinal instability neoplastic score, modified Frailty Index-11 (mFI), diabetes, and serum albumin levels). Univariate and multivariate analyses were developed to identify risk factors for postoperative complications (p < 0.05). RESULTS: Overall, 57 postoperative complications occurred in 47 of 241 (19.5%) patients. The most common complications were wound infection/dehiscence, urinary tract infection, and pneumonia. Univariate analysis identified preoperative radiotherapy (p = 0.028), mFI (p < 0.001), blood loss ≥ 500 ml (p = 0.016), and preoperative molecular targeted drugs (p = 0.030) as potential risk factors. From the receiver operating characteristic curve, the clinically optimal cut-off value of mFI was 0.27 (sensitivity, 46.8%; specificity, 79.9%). Multivariate analysis identified mFI ≥ 0.27 (odds ratio (OR) 2.94 (95% CI 1.44 to 5.98); p = 0.003) and preoperative radiotherapy (OR 2.11 (95% CI 1.00 to 4.46); p = 0.049) as significant risk factors. In particular, urinary tract infection (p = 0.012) and pneumonia (p = 0.037) were associated with mFI ≥ 0.27. Furthermore, the severity of postoperative complications was positively correlated with mFI (p < 0.001). CONCLUSION: The mFI is a useful tool to predict the incidence and the severity of postoperative complications in spinal metastases surgery.2024年12月, The bone & joint journal, 106-B(12) (12), 1469 - 1476, 英語, 国際誌研究論文(学術雑誌)
- OBJECTIVE: To identify factors associated with the absence of cervical spine instability in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA). METHODS: Cervical spine instability was defined as the presence of at least one of the following: atlantoaxial subluxation, vertical subluxation of the axis, or subaxial subluxation. In 2001-2002, 634 enrolled outpatients with "classical" or "definite" RA underwent a radiographic cervical spine checkup. In 2012-2013, 233 (36.8%) prospectively underwent routine clinical follow-ups with a >10-year radiographic evaluation. The prevalence and independent predictive factors for no instability were analyzed by multivariable logistic regression. Next, 85 of 292 outpatients (29.1%) without baseline cervical spine instability completed consecutive >5-year and >10-year radiographic examinations. The incidence and predictors for no new development of instability were assessed similarly. RESULTS: Among 233 patients, those without cervical spine instability decreased from 114 (48.9%) to 47 (20.2%) during >10 years. Steinbrocker peripheral joint destruction stages I-II (odds ratio [OR], 3.797; p=0.001), no corticosteroid administration (OR, 2.700; p=0.007), and no previous joint surgery (OR, 2.480; p=0.020) were predictors for no instability. Then, 33 of 85 (38.8%) consecutively followed patients without baseline cervical spine lesions did not develop instability throughout. Steinbrocker stages I-II (OR, 5.355; p=0.005) and no corticosteroid therapy (OR, 3.868; p=0.010) were predictors for no new onset of instability. C-reactive protein (CRP) level≤1.0 mg/dL was marginal in both models (n=233 [OR, 2.013; p=0.057], n=85 [OR, 2.453; p=0.075]). CONCLUSION: Steinbrocker stages I-II, no corticosteroids, no previous joint surgery, and possibly CRP ≤1.0 mg/dL are factors associated with >10-year absence of cervical spine instability in RA.2024年12月, Neurospine, 21(4) (4), 1230 - 1240, 英語, 国際誌研究論文(学術雑誌)
- We designed a prospective multicenter cohort study to clarify a long-term, > 10-year prevalence and aggravation of cervical spine instabilities in rheumatoid arthritis (RA). In 2001-2002, 634 outpatients were enrolled, and 233 (36.8%) were followed for > 10 years. Cervical spine instability was defined as atlantoaxial subluxation (AAS, > 3-mm atlantodental interval), vertical subluxation (VS, < 13-mm Ranawat value), and subaxial subluxation (SAS, ≥ 2-mm irreducible vertebral translation). The aggravation was determined as ≥ 2 mm decrease of the Ranawat value in VS, ≥ 2-mm increase of slippage in SAS, and these new developments. The prevalence of VS and SAS increased during both the initial and last > 5 years (all, p ≤ 0.049). While VS aggravation was associated with pre-existing AAS (p = 0.007) and VS (p = 0.002), SAS aggravation correlated with pre-existing VS (p = 0.002). Multivariable analysis found hand mutilating changes (odds ratio [OR] = 4.048, p = 0.008), RA duration ≥ 5 years (OR = 3.711, p = 0.013), C-reactive protein (CRP) level ≥ 3.8 mg/dL (OR = 2.187, p = 0.044), and previous joint surgery (OR = 2.147, p = 0.021) as predictors for VS aggravation. Pre-existing VS (OR = 2.252, p = 0.024) and CRP ≥ 1.0 mg/dL (OR = 2.139, p = 0.013) were disclosed as predictors for SAS aggravation. Low disease activity and clinical remission before the development of VS and advanced peripheral joint destruction are essential to prevent progressive cervical spine instability in RA.2024年11月, Scientific reports, 14(1) (1), 26821 - 26821, 英語, 国際誌研究論文(学術雑誌)
- BACKGROUND: Pediatric lumbar spondylolysis, a stress fracture of the lumbar spine, frequently affects young athletes, and nonoperative treatment is often the first choice of management. Because the union rate in lumbar spondylolysis is lower than that in general fatigue fractures, identifying risk factors for nonunion is essential for optimizing treatment. PURPOSE: To determine the risk factors for nonunion after nonoperative treatment of acute pediatric lumbar spondylolysis through multivariate analysis. STUDY DESIGN: Case-control study; Level of evidence, 3. METHODS: We analyzed 574 pediatric patients (mean age, 14.3 ± 1.9 years) with lumbar spondylolysis who underwent nonoperative treatment between 2015 and 2022. Nonoperative treatment included the elimination of sports activities, bracing, and weekly athletic rehabilitation, with follow-up computed tomography. Patient data, lesion characteristics, sports history, presence of spina bifida occulta at the lamina with a lesion or at the lumbosacral spine excluding the lesion level, and lumbosacral parameters were examined. Differences between the union and nonunion groups were investigated using multivariate analysis to determine the risk factors for nonunion. RESULTS: Of the 574 patients, 81.7% achieved bone union. Multivariate analysis revealed that an L5 lesion and the progression of the main and contralateral lesion stages were significant independent risk factors for nonunion. An L5 lesion had a lower union rate than non-L5 lesions. As the main lesion progressed, the likelihood of nonunion increased significantly, and the progression of the contralateral lesion also showed a similar trend. Spina bifida occulta and lumbosacral parameters were not significant predictors of nonunion in this study. CONCLUSION: We identified the L5 lesion level and the progression of the main and contralateral lesion stages as independent risk factors for nonunion in pediatric lumbar spondylolysis after nonoperative treatment. These findings aid in treatment decision-making. When bone union cannot be expected with nonoperative treatment, symptomatic treatment is required without prolonged external fixation and rest, and without aiming for bone union. Individualized treatment plans are crucial based on identified risk factors.2024年09月, The American journal of sports medicine, 52(11) (11), 2866 - 2873, 英語, 国際誌研究論文(学術雑誌)

- STUDY DESIGN: Retrospective case series. OBJECTIVE: To report the detailed bone fusion rates and duration of treatment in unilateral and bilateral cases of pediatric lumbar spondylolysis (LS). SUMMARY OF BACKGROUND DATA: Early diagnosis and optimal conservative management for LS are crucial for achieving bony healing without surgery. However, existing research on the conservative treatment of pediatric LS, particularly regarding bone union rates and treatment duration for each stage of bilateral spondylolysis, is limited. METHODS: We retrospectively analyzed 590 pediatric patients (522 boys and 68 girls) under 18 years of age diagnosed with LS and treated conservatively from 2015 to 2021. The diagnosis was based on computed tomography scans and magnetic resonance imaging findings, with stages classified as very early, early, progressive, or terminal. Patient background, sports history, level and stage of spondylolysis, presence of spina bifida occulta, bone union rate, duration of conservative treatment, and recurrence rate were retrospectively analyzed. RESULTS: The overall bone union rate was 81.9%, with a mean conservative treatment duration of 53.7 days. Unilateral LS cases showed decreased bone union rates with stage advancement (very early; 98.2%, early; 96.0%, progressive; 64.3%). Bilateral LS cases with progressive or terminal stage demonstrated low bone union rates (very early/very early; 100%, early/very early; 94.1%, progressive/very early; 66.7%, early/early; 82.9%, progressive/early; 32.3%, progressive/progressive; 23.7%, very early/terminal; 0%, early/terminal; 50.0%, progressive/terminal; 11.1%). The duration of conservative treatment extended as the stage of the main and contralateral lesions progressed, ranging from 39.1 days (very early/none) to 105 days (progressive/terminal). The recurrence rate after bone fusion was 16.6%, with no differences based on lesion stage. CONCLUSIONS: In this series of 590 patients, conservative treatment yielded high bone union rates for pediatric LS. However, union rates decreased with stage advancement, especially in bilateral cases. These findings provide valuable insights for prognosticating natural history and outcome regarding LS treatment, bone union, and return to activity.2024年08月, Spine, 49(15) (15), 1085 - 1091, 英語, 国際誌研究論文(学術雑誌)
- BACKGROUND: Sacral fatigue fractures are a rare injury but should be considered as a differential diagnosis for low back and buttock pain in young adults. Collective reports are limited, most of which have focused on long-distance runners. PURPOSE: To investigate the characteristics of sacral fatigue fractures in adolescents. STUDY DESIGN: Case series; Level of evidence, 4. METHODS: We analyzed patient background characteristics, physical examination and imaging findings, and treatment courses of those diagnosed with sacral fatigue fractures using magnetic resonance imaging. RESULTS: Among 34 patients with sacral fatigue fractures, 15 and 19 were male and female patients, respectively, with an age range of 11 to 19 years (mean age, 15.0 years). Almost all patients were athletes, and 29 patients performed their sport ≥5 times a week. Long-distance runners were the most commonly affected, comprising 7 patients, and participants in other common sports such as baseball (6 patients), basketball (4 patients), and soccer (3 patients) were also affected. Physical examination revealed tension sign (Lasègue test) on the affected side in 6 patients and tight hamstrings in 24 patients. Imaging findings included 18 patients with right-side involvement, 12 with left-side involvement, and 4 with involvement on both sides. In 11 patients, spina bifida occulta was observed at S1 and 8 patients had a history of lumbar spondylolysis with 4 patients having concurrent sacral fatigue fractures. Physical therapy was performed concurrently with the cessation of exercise, and return to exercise was permitted if the pain had been relieved after 1 month. All patients returned to sports at a median of 48 days (range, 20-226 days) after symptom onset. However, 2 patients experienced recurrence (1 patient on the ipsilateral side and 1 patient on the contralateral side). CONCLUSION: Sacral stress fractures are not limited to long-distance runners in this population and can manifest as lower back pain or buttock pain in athletes participating in a variety of sports. Although the course of treatment was generally good, the possibility of recurrence must always be considered.2024年07月, The American journal of sports medicine, 52(8) (8), 2046 - 2054, 英語, 国際誌研究論文(学術雑誌)

- OBJECTIVE: Spine surgeons are often at risk of radiation exposure due to intraoperative fluoroscopy, leading to health concerns such as carcinogenesis. This is due to the increasing use of percutaneous pedicle screw (PPS) in spinal surgeries, resulting from the widespread adoption of minimally invasive spine stabilization. This study aimed to elucidate the effectiveness of smart glasses (SG) in PPS insertion under fluoroscopy. METHODS: SG were used as an alternative screen for fluoroscopic images. Operators A (2-year experience in spine surgery) and B (9-year experience) inserted the PPS into the bilateral L1-5 pedicles of the lumbar model bone under fluoroscopic guidance, repeating this procedure twice with and without SG (groups SG and N-SG, respectively). Each vertebral body's insertion time, radiation dose, and radiation exposure time were measured, and the deviation in screw trajectories was evaluated. RESULTS: The groups SG and N-SG showed no significant difference in insertion time for the overall procedure and each operator. However, group SG had a significantly shorter radiation exposure time than group N-SG for the overall procedure (109.1 ± 43.5 seconds vs. 150.9 ± 38.7 seconds; p = 0.003) and operator A (100.0 ± 29.0 seconds vs. 157.9 ± 42.8 seconds; p = 0.003). The radiation dose was also significantly lower in group SG than in group N-SG for the overall procedure (1.3 ± 0.6 mGy vs. 1.7 ± 0.5 mGy; p = 0.023) and operator A (1.2 ± 0.4 mGy vs. 1.8 ± 0.5 mGy; p = 0.013). The 2 groups showed no significant difference in screw deviation. CONCLUSION: The application of SG in fluoroscopic imaging for PPS insertion holds potential as a useful method for reducing radiation exposure.2024年06月, Neurospine, 21(2) (2), 432 - 439, 英語, 国際誌研究論文(学術雑誌)
- OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the preoperative and perioperative predictors of persistent leg numbness following lumbar fusion in patients aged ≥ 75 years. METHODS: This single-center retrospective study examined 304 patients aged ≥ 75 years who underwent lumbar fusion for lumbar degenerative disease (102 men, 202 women; mean age, 79.2 [75-90] years). The visual analogue scale (VAS) score for leg numbness was examined preoperatively and at 2 years postoperatively. The persistent leg numbness group included patients with a 2-year postoperative VAS score for leg numbness ≥ 5 points. The demographic data were also reviewed. A multivariate stepwise logistic regression analysis was performed for variables with univariate analysis values of p < 0.2 on univariate analysis. RESULTS: In total, 71 patients (23.4%) experienced persistent postoperative leg numbness. Multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed that a history of lumbar decompression, longer symptom duration, and a preoperative VAS score for leg numbness ≥ 5 points were associated with greater postoperative persistent leg numbness following lumbar fusion. In contrast, other factors, such as sex, body mass index, vertebral fracture, diabetes mellitus, depression, symptom duration, dural injury, operative time, and estimated blood loss, were not. CONCLUSION: A history of preoperative lumbar decompression, longer symptom duration, and greater preoperative VAS scores for leg numbness were preoperative predictors of persistent postoperative leg numbness following lumbar fusion in older patients. Although lumbar fusion is expected to improve leg numbness, surgeons should consider the surgical history, duration, and preoperative numbness intensity and explain the potential postoperative persistent leg numbness in advance.2024年06月, Neurospine, 21(2) (2), 596 - 605, 英語, 国際誌研究論文(学術雑誌)

- BACKGROUND: Low back pain is a global health problem that originated mainly from intervertebral disc degeneration (IDD). Autophagy, negatively regulated by the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K)/Akt/mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) signaling pathway, prevents metabolic and degenerative diseases by removing and recycling damaged cellular components. Despite growing evidence that autophagy occurs in the intervertebral disc, the regulation of disc cellular autophagy is still poorly understood. METHODS: Annulus fibrosus (rAF) cell cultures derived from healthy female rabbit discs were used to test the effect of autophagy inhibition or activation on disc cell fate and matrix homeostasis. Specifically, different chemical inhibitors including rapamycin, 3-methyladenine, MK-2206, and PP242 were used to modulate activities of different proteins in the PI3K/Akt/mTOR signaling pathway to assess IL-1β-induced cellular senescence, apoptosis, and matrix homeostasis in rAF cells grown under nutrient-poor culture condition. RESULTS: Rapamycin, an inhibitor of mTOR complex 1 (mTORC1), reduced the phosphorylation of mTOR and its effector p70/S6K in rAF cell cultures. Rapamycin also induced autophagic flux as measured by increased expression of key autophagy markers, including LC3 puncta number, LC3-II expression, and cytoplasmic HMGB1 intensity and decreased p62/SQSTM1 expression. As expected, IL-1β stimulation promoted rAF cellular senescence, apoptosis, and matrix homeostatic imbalance with enhanced aggrecanolysis and MMP-3 and MMP-13 expression. Rapamycin treatment effectively mitigated IL-1β-mediated inflammatory stress changes, but these alleviating effects of rapamycin were abrogated by chemical inhibition of Akt and mTOR complex 2 (mTORC2). CONCLUSIONS: These findings suggest that rapamycin blunts adverse effects of inflammation on disc cells by inhibiting mTORC1 to induce autophagy through the PI3K/Akt/mTOR pathway that is dependent on Akt and mTORC2 activities. Hence, our findings identify autophagy, rapamycin, and PI3K/Akt/mTOR signaling as potential therapeutic targets for IDD treatment.2024年03月, JOR spine, 7(1) (1), e1303, 英語, 国際誌研究論文(学術雑誌)

- OBJECTIVE: To elucidate the patient characteristics and outcomes of emergency surgery for spinal metastases and identify risk factors for emergency surgery. METHODS: We prospectively analyzed 216 patients with spinal metastases who underwent palliative surgery from 2015 to 2020. The Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status, Barthel index, EuroQol-5 dimension (EQ5D), and neurological function were assessed at surgery and at 1, 3, and 6 months postoperatively. Multivariate analysis was performed to identify risk factors for emergency surgery. RESULTS: In total, 146 patients underwent nonemergency surgery and 70 patients underwent emergency surgery within 48 hours of diagnosis of a surgical indication. After propensity score matching, we compared 61 patients each who underwent nonemergency and emergency surgery. Regardless of matching, the median performance status and the mean Barthel index and EQ5D score showed a tendency toward worse outcomes in the emergency than nonemergency group both preoperatively and 1 month postoperatively, although the surgery greatly improved these values in both groups. The median survival time tended to be shorter in the emergency than nonemergency group. The multivariate analysis showed that lesions located at T3-10 (p = 0.002; odds ratio [OR], 2.92; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.48-5.75) and Frankel grades A-C (p < 0.001; OR, 4.91; 95% CI, 2.45-9.86) were independent risk factors for emergency surgery. CONCLUSION: Among patients with spinal metastases, preoperative and postoperative subjective health values and postoperative survival are poorer in emergency than nonemergency surgery. Close attention to patients with T3-10 metastases is required to avoid poor outcomes after emergency surgery.2024年03月, Neurospine, 21(1) (1), 314 - 327, 英語, 国際誌研究論文(学術雑誌)

- STUDY DESIGN: Multicenter case-control study. OBJECTIVE: To identify imaging characteristics of the cervical spine in patients with retro-odontoid pseudotumor (ROP) without rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and determine the pathogenesis of ROP. SUMMARY OF BACKGROUND DATA: ROP results from proliferative changes in the soft tissue of the atlantoaxial junction surrounding the region of the transverse ligament, and is commonly seen in RA patients. However, the pathogenesis of ROP caused by mechanical instability of the upper cervical spine in patients without RA is yet to be explained. METHODS: We collected imaging data (preoperative radiographs, magnetic resonance imaging [MRI], and computed tomography [CT]) of patients who underwent surgery between April 2011 and March 2022 at the three university hospitals for ROP (cases) and cervical spondylotic myelopathy (as age, sex, and institution matched controls). The two groups were compared for different parameters on cervical dynamic radiographs, MRI, and CT. RESULTS: The ROP group consisted of 42 patients, and the control group comprised 168 patients. C2-C7 range of motion was significantly smaller in the ROP group (25.8 ± 2.6°) compared to the control group (33.0 ± 1.0°). C2-C7 sagittal vertical axis was significantly larger in the ROP group than the control group (39.3 ± 3.6 mm versus 32.2 ± 1.3 mm). MRI and CT assessment showed progressive degeneration at all intervertebral levels in the ROP group. A significant positive correlation was observed between the thickness of the soft tissue posterior to the dental process and the atlantodental interval in the flexion position (r = 0.501). CONCLUSION: The development of ROP was associated with degeneration of facet joints and intervertebral discs in the middle and lower cervical spine. Our findings suggest that decreased mobility of the middle and lower cervical spine may cause instability in the upper cervical spine, leading to the formation of ROP.2024年01月, Spine, 49(19) (19), E315-E321, 英語, 国際誌研究論文(学術雑誌)
- BACKGROUND: Cervical spondylotic myelopathy (CSM) is the most common degenerative dysfunction of the spinal cord in the cervical spine in patients older than 55 years. The Japanese Orthopedic Association developed a scoring system to quantify clinical impairment of CSM patients, allocate them according to the degree of impairment, and suggest best timing for surgery. The original version evaluates the upper limb motor function through the ability of feeding with chopsticks, which are not intrinsic in western populations. To compare severity and treatment improvement of any diseases, it is preferable to have modified and translated versions of questionnaires and scores closest to the original ones. The authors present a prospective cohort study to validate the 17-point Brazilian Portuguese translated version of the modified Japanese Orthopedic Association (mJOA-BR17) survey. METHODS: Patients with CSM (n = 36) were allocated to the disease group, while age- and sex-matched healthy volunteers (n = 34) were recruited for the control group. Comparison of statistical analysis of mJOA-BR17 domains for each group was established. After the translation and adaptation of mJOA-BR17, the validation was made through application to the 2 groups. RESULTS: There were statistical differences between groups in total mJOA-BR17 score (CSM, 14.14 ± 2.92; control, 16.68 ± 0.59: P < 0.001), lower limbs motor function (CSM, 3.25 ± 1.02; control, 3.91 ± 0.29: P < 0.001), upper limbs sensory function (CSM, 1.17 ± 0.81; control, 1.86 ± 0.36: P < 0.001), lower limbs sensory function (CSM, 1.62 ± 0.64; control, 2.0 ± 0.0: P < 0.001), and bladder function (CSM, 2.69 ± 0.52; control, 2.97 ± 0.17: P = 0.005). The receiver operating characteristic curve was 0.81, indicating usefulness of the mJOA-BR17 score to identify patients with CSM from healthy controls. CONCLUSIONS: The mJOA-BR17 demonstrated similarity, applicability, and good understanding in comparison to the English-modified version of 17-point JOA score for CSM, becoming a valuable tool to quantify and differentiate CSM patients from healthy individuals.2023年12月, International journal of spine surgery, 17(6) (6), 875 - 881, 英語, 国際誌研究論文(学術雑誌)
- Background and Objectives: Bone metastasis cancer boards (BMCBs) focusing on the management of bone metastases have been gathering much attention. However, the association of BMCBs with spinal surgery in patients with spinal metastases remains unclear. In this retrospective single-center observational study, we aimed to clarify the effect of a BMCB on spinal metastasis treatment. Materials and Methods: We reviewed consecutive cases of posterior decompression and/or instrumentation surgery for metastatic spinal tumors from 2008 to 2019. The BMCB involved a team of specialists in orthopedics, rehabilitation medicine, radiation oncology, radiology, palliative supportive care, oncology, and hematology. We compared demographics, eastern cooperative oncology group performance status (ECOGPS), Barthel index (BI), number of overall versus emergency surgeries, and primary tumors between patients before (2008-2012) and after (2013-2019) BMCB establishment. Results: A total of 226 patients including 33 patients before BMCB started were enrolled; lung cancer was the most common primary tumor. After BMCB establishment, the mean patient age was 5 years older (p = 0.028), the mean operating time was 34 min shorter (p = 0.025), the mean hospital stay was 34.5 days shorter (p < 0.001), and the mean BI before surgery was 12 points higher (p = 0.049) than before. Moreover, the mean number of surgeries per year increased more than fourfold to 27.6 per year (p < 0.01) and emergency surgery rates decreased from 48.5% to 29.0% (p = 0.041). Patients with an unknown primary tumor before surgery decreased from 24.2% to 9.3% (p = 0.033). Postoperative deterioration rates from 1 to 6 months after surgery of ECOGPS and BI after BMCB started were lower than before (p = 0.045 and p = 0.027, respectively). Conclusion: The BMCB decreased the emergency surgery and unknown primary tumor rate despite an increase in the overall number of spinal surgeries. The BMCB also contributed to shorter operation times, shorter hospital stays, and lower postoperative deterioration rates of ECOGPS and BI.2023年11月, Medicina (Kaunas, Lithuania), 59(12) (12), 英語, 国際誌研究論文(学術雑誌)

- We investigated the effects of the cytokine inhibitors IL-1 receptor antagonist (IL-1Ra) and soluble tumor necrosis factor receptor-1 (sTNFR1) on the extracellular matrix metabolism of human intervertebral discs (IVDs) and the roles of IL-1β and TNF in the homeostasis of IVD cells. The 1.2% alginate beads and the explants obtained from 35 human lumbar discs were treated with cytokine inhibitors. Extracellular matrix metabolism was evaluated by proteoglycan (PG) and collagen syntheses and IL-1β, TNF, and IL-6 expressions after three days of culture in the presence or absence of IL-1Ra, sTNFR1, and cycloheximide. Simultaneous treatment with IL-1Ra and sTNFR1 stimulated PG and collagen syntheses in the NP and AF cells and explants. The IL-1β concentration was significantly correlated to the relative increase in PG synthesis in AF explants after simultaneous cytokine inhibitor treatment. The relative increase in PG synthesis induced by simultaneous cytokine treatment was significantly higher in an advanced grade of MRI. Expressions of IL-1β and TNF were upregulated by each cytokine inhibitor, and simultaneous treatment suppressed IL-1β and TNF productions. In conclusion, IL-1Ra and sTNFR1 have the potential to increase PG and collagen synthesis in IVDs. IL-1β and TNF have a feedback pathway to maintain optimal expression, resulting in the control of homeostasis in IVD explants.2023年08月, International journal of molecular sciences, 24(15) (15), 英語, 国際誌研究論文(学術雑誌)
- STUDY DESIGN: A single-center retrospective study. PURPOSE: To research the predictive factors associated with postoperative patient satisfaction 1 year after minimally invasive transforaminal lumbar interbody fusion (MIS-TLIF), a minimally invasive procedure for lumbar degenerative disease. OVERVIEW OF LITERATURE: There have been reports of numerous variables influencing patient satisfaction with lumbar surgery; however, there have been few investigations on MIS are limited. METHODS: This study included 229 patients (107 men and 122 women; mean age, 68.9 years) who received one or two levels of MISTLIF, and the patient's age, gender, disease, paralysis, preoperative physical functions, duration of symptom(s), and surgery-associated factors (waiting for surgery, number of surgical levels, surgical time, and intraoperative blood loss) were studied. Radiographic characteristics and clinical outcomes such as Oswestry Disability Index (ODI) scores and Visual Analog Scale (VAS; 0-100) ODI scores for low back pain, leg pain, and numbness were studied. One year following surgery, patient satisfaction (defined as satisfaction for surgery and for present condition; 0-100) was assessed using VAS and its relationships with investigation factors were examined. RESULTS: The mean VAS scores of satisfaction for surgery and for present condition were 88.6 and 84.2, respectively. The results of multiple regression analysis showed that preoperative adverse factors of satisfaction for surgery were being elderly (β =-0.17, p =0.023), high preoperative low back pain VAS scores (β =-0.15, p =0.020), and postoperative adverse factors were high postoperative ODI scores (β =-0.43, p <0.001). In addition, the preoperative adverse factor of satisfaction for present condition was high preoperative low back pain VAS scores (β =-0.21, p =0.002), and postoperative adverse factors were high postoperative ODI scores (β =-0.45, p <0.001) and high postoperative low back pain VAS scores (β =-0.26, p =0.001). CONCLUSIONS: According to this study, significant preoperative low back pain and high postoperative ODI score after surgery are linked to patient unhappiness.2023年08月, Asian spine journal, 17(4) (4), 750 - 760, 英語, 国際誌研究論文(学術雑誌)

- The number of advanced-age patients with spinal metastases is rising. This study was performed to clarify the characteristics and surgical outcomes of spinal metastases in advanced-age patients. We prospectively analyzed 216 patients with spinal metastases from 2015 to 2020 and divided them into three age groups: <70 years (n = 119), 70-79 years (n = 73), and ≥80 years (n = 24). Although there were no significant intergroup differences in preoperative characteristics and surgery-related factors except for age, patients aged ≥80 years tended to have a worse performance status (PS), Barthel index, and EuroQol-5 dimension (EQ-5D) before and after surgery than the other two groups. Although the median PS, mean Barthel index and mean EQ-5D greatly improved postoperatively in each group, the median PS and mean Barthel index at 6 months and the mean EQ-5D at 1 month postoperatively were significantly poorer in the ≥80-year group than the 70-79-year group. The rates of postoperative complications and re-deterioration of the EQ-5D were significantly higher in the oldest group than in the other two groups. Although surgery for spinal metastases improved the PS, Barthel index, and EQ-5D regardless of age, clinicians should be aware of the poorer outcomes and higher complication rates in advanced-age patients.2023年07月, Journal of clinical medicine, 12(14) (14), 英語, 国際誌研究論文(学術雑誌)
- BACKGROUND: Degenerative disc disease, a major cause of low back pain and associated neurological symptoms, is a global health problem with the high morbidity, workforce loss, and socioeconomic burden. The present surgical strategy of disc resection and/or spinal fusion results in the functional loss of load, shock absorption, and movement; therefore, the development of new biological therapies is demanded. This achievement requires the understanding of intervertebral disc cell fate during aging and degeneration. METHODS: Literature review was performed to clarify the current concepts and future perspectives of disc cell fate, focused on apoptosis, senescence, and autophagy. RESULTS: The intervertebral disc has a complex structure with the nucleus pulposus (NP), annulus fibrosus (AF), and cartilage endplates. While the AF arises from the mesenchyme, the NP originates from the notochord. Human disc NP notochordal phenotype disappears in adolescence, accompanied with cell death induction and chondrocyte proliferation. Discs morphologically and biochemically degenerate from early childhood as well, thereby suggesting a possible involvement of cell fate including age-related phenotypic changes in the disease process. As the disc is the largest avascular organ in the body, nutrient deprivation is a suspected contributor to degeneration. During aging and degeneration, disc cells undergo senescence, irreversible growth arrest, producing proinflammatory cytokines and matrix-degradative enzymes. Excessive stress ultimately leads to programmed cell death including apoptosis, necroptosis, pyroptosis, and ferroptosis. Autophagy, the intracellular degradation and recycling system, plays a role in maintaining cell homeostasis. While the incidence of apoptosis and senescence increases with age and degeneration severity, autophagy can be activated earlier, in response to limited nutrition and inflammation, but impaired in aged, degenerated discs. The phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K)/Akt/mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) is a signal integrator to determine disc cell fate. CONCLUSIONS: Cell fate and microenvironmental regulation by modulating PI3K/Akt/mTOR signaling is a potential biological treatment for degenerative disc disease.2023年06月, North American Spine Society journal, 14, 100210 - 100210, 英語, 国際誌研究論文(学術雑誌)
- INTRODUCTION: Patients with nonidiopathic scoliosis often have a high risk associated with general anesthesia because of cardiac or pulmonary dysfunction secondary to underlying diseases. Base excess has been reported as a predictor in the management of trauma and cancer, although not yet in scoliosis. This study was performed to clarify the surgical outcomes and the association of perioperative complications with base excess in patients with nonidiopathic scoliosis who have a high risk associated with general anesthesia. METHODS: Patients with nonidiopathic scoliosis who were referred to our institution from 2009 to 2020 because of their high risk associated with general anesthesia were retrospectively enrolled. High-risk factors for anesthesia were determined by a senior anesthesiologist and categorized into circulatory or pulmonary dysfunction. Perioperative complications were analyzed using the Clavien-Dindo classification; severe complications were defined as grade ≥III. We investigated high-risk factors for anesthesia, underlying diseases, preoperative and postoperative Cobb angle, surgery-related factors, base excess, and postoperative management. These variables were statistically compared between patients with and without complications. RESULTS: Thirty-six patients (mean age, 17.9 years old; range, 11-40 years old) were enrolled (two patients declined surgery). High-risk factors were circulatory dysfunction in 16 patients and pulmonary dysfunction in 20 patients. The mean Cobb angle improved from 85.1° (36°-128°) preoperatively to 43.6° (9°-83°) postoperatively. Three intraoperative complications and 23 postoperative complications occurred in 20 (55.6%) patients. Severe complications occurred in 10 (27.8%) patients. All patients underwent postoperative intensive care unit management after posterior all-screw construction. A large preoperative Cobb angle (p=0.021) and base excess outliers (>3 or <-3 mEq/L) (p=0.005) were significant risk factors for complications. CONCLUSIONS: Patients with nonidiopathic scoliosis who have a high risk associated with general anesthesia have a higher complication rate. Preoperative large deformity and base excess (>3 or <-3 mEq/L) could be predictors of complications.2023年05月, Spine surgery and related research, 7(3) (3), 268 - 275, 英語, 国内誌研究論文(学術雑誌)
- Adiponectin, a hormone secreted by adipocytes, has anti-inflammatory effects and is involved in various physiological and pathological processes such as obesity, inflammatory diseases, and cartilage diseases. However, the function of adiponectin in intervertebral disc (IVD) degeneration is not well understood. This study aimed to elucidate the effects of AdipoRon, an agonist of adiponectin receptor, on human IVD nucleus pulposus (NP) cells, using a three-dimensional in vitro culturing system. This study also aimed to elucidate the effects of AdipoRon on rat tail IVD tissues using an in vivo puncture-induced IVD degeneration model. Analysis using quantitative polymerase chain reaction demonstrated the downregulation of gene expression of proinflammatory and catabolic factors by interleukin (IL)-1β (10 ng/mL) in human IVD NP cells treated with AdipoRon (2 μM). Furthermore, western blotting showed AdipoRon-induced suppression of p65 phosphorylation (p < 0.01) under IL-1β stimulation in the adenosine monophosphate-activated protein kinase (AMPK) pathway. Intradiscal administration of AdipoRon was effective in alleviating the radiologic height loss induced by annular puncture of rat tail IVD, histomorphological degeneration, production of extracellular matrix catabolic factors, and expression of proinflammatory cytokines. Therefore, AdipoRon could be a new therapeutic candidate for alleviating the early stage of IVD degeneration.2023年05月, International journal of molecular sciences, 24(10) (10), 英語, 国際誌研究論文(学術雑誌)
- Background and Objectives: Cervical spondylotic myelopathy (CSM) is a degenerative disease and occurs more frequently with age. In fact, the development of non-herniated CSM under age 30 is uncommon. Therefore, a retrospective case series was designed to clarify clinical and radiological characteristics of young adult patients with CSM under age 30. Materials and Methods: A total of seven patients, all men, with non-herniated, degenerative CSM under age 30 were retrieved from the medical records of 2598 hospitalized CSM patients (0.27%). Patient demographics and backgrounds were assessed. The sagittal alignment, congenital canal stenosis, dynamic canal stenosis, and vertebral slips in the cervical spine were radiographically evaluated. The presence of degenerative discs, intramedullary high-signal intensity lesions, and sagittal spinal cord compression on T2-weighted magnetic resonance images (MRIs) and axial spinal cord deformity on T1-weighted MRIs was identified. Results: All patients (100.0%) had relatively high daily sports activities and/or jobs requiring frequent neck extension. Cervical spine radiographs revealed the sagittal alignment as the "reverse-sigmoid" type in 57.1% of patients and "straight" type in 28.6%. All patients (100.0%) presented congenital cervical stenosis with the canal diameter ≤12 mm and/or Torg-Pavlov ratio <0.80. Furthermore, all patients (100.0%) developed dynamic stenosis with the canal diameter ≤12 mm and/or posterior vertebral slip ≥2 mm at the neurologically responsible segment in full-extension position. In MRI examination, all discs at the neurologically responsible level (100.0%) were degenerative. Intramedullary abnormal intensity lesions were detected in 85.7% of patients, which were all at the neurologically responsible disc level. Conclusions: Patients with non-herniated, degenerative CSM under age 30 are rare but more common in men with mild sagittal "reverse-sigmoid" or "straight" deformity and congenital canal stenosis. Relatively high daily activities, accumulating neck stress, can cause an early development of intervertebral disc degeneration and dynamic canal stenosis, leading to CSM in young adults.2023年03月, Medicina (Kaunas, Lithuania), 59(3) (3), 英語, 国際誌研究論文(学術雑誌)
- BACKGROUND Myxofibrosarcoma involving the spine is a rare and intractable disease. Although wide surgical resection is the mainstay of treatment, it is often difficult to complete marginal en-bloc resection due to adjacent neurovascular components in the spine. Separation surgery, a partial resection to achieve circumferential separation and high-dose irradiation such as postoperative intensity-modulated radiation therapy, has received much attention as a new therapy for spinal tumors. However, little evidence regarding separation surgery with intensity-modulated radiation therapy for a spinal myxofibrosarcoma exists. CASE REPORT We present a case of a 75-year-old man with progressive myelopathy. Radiological examination revealed severe spinal cord compression due to an unknown widespread multiple tumor in the cervical and thoracic spine. Computed tomography-guided biopsy showed high-grade sarcoma. Positron emission tomography detected no other tumors in the body. Separation surgery was therefore performed with posterior stabilization. Hematoxylin and eosin staining showed storiform cellular infiltrates and pleomorphic cell nuclei. Histopathology identified high-grade myxofibrosarcoma. Postoperative intensity-modulated radiation therapy of 60 Gy in 25 fractions was completed without any adverse effects. The patient had greatly improved neurological function, was capable of walking with a cane, and had no recurrence for at least 1 year after surgery. CONCLUSIONS We reported a case of an unresectable high-grade myxofibrosarcoma of the spine successfully treated with the combination of separation surgery and postoperative intensity-modulated radiation therapy. This combination therapy is a relatively safe and effective treatment option in patients with impending neurological damage by unresectable sarcomas when total en-bloc resection is challenging due to the size, location, or adhesion.2023年03月, Am J Case Rep, 24, e939368, 英語, 国際誌[査読有り]研究論文(学術雑誌)

- Background: Symptomatic spinal metastasis (SSM) decreases the activities of daily living (ADL) and quality of life of cancer patients. However, the risk factors for SSM onset remain unclear. This prospective cohort study aimed to statistically analyze the significant risk factors. Methods: From 2016 to 2018, 210 consecutive patients with spinal metastases were prospectively registered. Patients with SSM at the first consultation and those who were unable to be followed-up owing to poor general condition were excluded. The demographic factors (age, sex, primary cancer, performance status, and ADL), clinical factors (radiation therapy, chemotherapy, molecularly targeted drugs, and bone-modifying agents (BMAs)), and Spinal Neoplastic Instability Score (SINS) were evaluated. Multivariate analysis was performed to identify the risk factors for SSM onset. Furthermore, the threshold was calculated from the receiver operating characteristic curve using the Youden index. Results: Thirty-nine patients who presented with SSM at the first consultation and 43 patients who were unable to be followed-up owing to poor general condition were excluded. Finally, 128 asymptomatic patients were included. Thirty-seven patients (28.9%) developed SSM during the follow-up period. The total SINS (OR: 1.739; 95% CI: 1.345-2.250) was identified as the most significant factor. The cut-off value of the SINS was 9.5 (sensitivity: 67.6%; specificity: 83.5%). Twenty-five (62.5%) of the forty patients with a SINS ≥ 10 developed SSM within a mean of 5.5 months (95% CI: 1.17-9.83). Furthermore, all patients with a SINS ≥ 13 developed SSM (n = 5) within a mean of 1.37 months (95% CI: 0.0-3.01). Conclusions: This study identified the significant risk factors for SSM onset and the threshold of the SINS. If long-term survival is expected, patients with a SINS ≥ 10 should be considered for intervention to prevent SSM.2023年02月, Cancers (Basel), 15(4) (4), 1251, 英語, 国際誌[査読有り]研究論文(学術雑誌)
- BACKGROUND: Primary spinal osteosarcoma is a rare and intractable disease. Although en bloc resection is favorable for longer survival, it is not always achievable. Separation surgery, a partial resection with circumferential separation to safely deliver high-dose irradiation including intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT), has been recently indicated for patients with spinal cord compression secondary to solid tumor metastases. However, little evidence regarding this combination approach to spinal osteosarcoma exists. CASE PRESENTATION: We report a 55-year-old male patient with a T1 tumor who underwent urgent decompression surgery for epidural spinal cord compression. Pathological findings revealed primary osteosarcoma. Separation surgery, IMRT, and adjuvant chemotherapy were applied to reduce the symptoms of epidural spinal cord compression. The patient was alive without local recurrence at the 5-year follow-up. CONCLUSIONS: Separation surgery with IMRT can be a relatively safe and effective treatment option in patients with osteosarcoma adjacent to spinal cord when en-bloc resection is challenging.2023年, Clinical medicine insights.

- A retrospective multicenter study. Body mass index (BMI) is recognized as an important determinant of osteoporosis and spinal postoperative outcomes; however, the specific impact of BMI on surgery for osteoporotic vertebral fractures (OVFs) remains inconclusive. This retrospective multicenter study investigated the impact of BMI on clinical outcomes following fusion surgery for OVFs. 237 OVF patients (mean age, 74.3 years; 48 men and 189 women) with neurological symptoms who underwent spinal fusion were included in this study. Patients were grouped by World Health Organization BMI categories: low BMI (<18.5 kg/m2), normal BMI (≥18.5 and <25 kg/m2), and high BMI (≥25 kg/m2). Patients' backgrounds, surgical method, radiological findings, pain measurements, activities of daily living (ADL), and postoperative complications were compared after a mean follow-up period of 4 years. As results, the proportion of patients able to walk independently was significantly smaller in the low BMI group (75.0%) compared with the normal BMI group (89.9%; P = .01) and the high BMI group (94.3%; P = .04). Improvement in the visual analogue scale for leg pain was significantly less in the low BMI group than the high BMI group (26.7 vs 42.8 mm; P = .046). Radiological evaluation, the Frankel classification, and postoperative complications were not significantly different among all 3 groups. Improvement of pain intensity and ADL in the high BMI group was equivalent or non-significantly better for some outcome measures compared with the normal BMI group. Leg pain and independent walking ability after fusion surgery for patients with OVFs improved less in the low versus the high BMI group. Surgeons may want to carefully evaluate at risk low BMI patients before fusion surgery for OVF because poor clinical results may occur.Ovid Technologies (Wolters Kluwer Health), 2022年12月, Medicine (Baltimore), 101(52) (52), e32330 - e32330, 英語, 国際誌[査読有り]研究論文(学術雑誌)
- Background and Objectives: The impact of the duration of symptoms (DOS) on postoperative clinical outcomes of patients with degenerative lumbar spinal diseases is important for determining the optimal timing of surgical intervention; however, the timing remains controversial. This prospective case−control study aimed to investigate the influence of the preoperative DOS on surgical outcomes in minimally invasive surgery-transforaminal lumbar interbody fusion (MIS-TLIF). Materials and Methods: Patients who underwent single-level TLIF for lumbar degenerative diseases between 2017 and 2018 were reviewed. Only patients with full clinical data during the 1-year follow-up period were included. The patients were divided into two groups (DOS < 12 months, group S; DOS ≥ 12 months, group L). The clinical outcomes, including the Oswestry disability index (ODI) and visual analog scale (VAS) for lower back pain, leg pain, and numbness, were investigated preoperatively and at 1, 3, and 6 months, as well as 1 year, after surgery. Furthermore, postoperative patient satisfaction 1 year after surgery was also surveyed. Results: A total of 163 patients were assessed: 60 in group S and 103 in group L. No differences in baseline characteristics and clinical outcomes were found. The ODI and VAS significantly improved from the baseline to each follow-up period (all p < 0.01). Group S had significantly lower ODI scores at 3 months (p = 0.019) and 6 months (p = 0.022). In addition, group S had significantly lower VAS scores for leg pain at 3 months (p = 0.027). In a comparison between both groups, only the patients with cauda equina symptoms showed that ODI and leg pain VAS scores at 3 months after surgery were significantly lower in group S (19.9 ± 9.1 vs. 14.1 ± 12.5; p = 0.037, 7.4 ± 13.9 vs. 14.7 ± 23.1; p = 0.032, respectively). However, the clinical outcomes were not significantly different between both groups 1 year after surgery. Patient satisfaction was also not significantly different between both groups. Conclusions: Patients with a shorter DOS tended to have a significantly slower recovery; however, clinical outcomes 1 year after surgery were good, regardless of the DOS.2022年12月, Medicina (Kaunas), 59(1) (1), 22, 英語, 国際誌[査読有り]研究論文(学術雑誌)
- The effect of spine surgery for symptomatic spinal metastases (SSM) on patient prognosis remains unclear. This study aimed to reveal the prognosis of patients with SSM after spine surgery. One hundred twenty-two patients with SSM were enrolled in this prospective cohort study. The patients who received chemotherapy after enrollment were excluded. The decision of surgery depended on patient's willingness; the final cohort comprised 31 and 24 patients in the surgery and non-surgery groups, respectively. The patients were evaluated by their performance status (PS), activities of daily living (ADL) and ambulatory status. Survival was evaluated by the Kaplan-Meier method. The PS, ADL and ambulation were significantly improved in the surgery group compared to non-surgery group. The median survival was significantly longer in the surgery group (5.17 months, 95% confidence interval (CI) 3.27 to 7.07) than in the non-surgery group (2.23 months, 95% CI 2.03 to 2.43; p = 0.003). Furthermore, the patients with a better PS, ADL and ambulatory status had a significantly longer survival. Surgery improved the PS, ADL, ambulation and survival of patients with SSM. In the management of SSM, spine surgery is not only palliative but may also prolong survival.2022年10月, J Clin Med, 11(21) (21), 6227, 英語, 国際誌[査読有り]研究論文(学術雑誌)

- Growth differentiation factors (GDFs) regulate homeostasis by amplifying extracellular matrix anabolism and inhibiting pro-inflammatory cytokine production in the intervertebral disc (IVD). The aim of this study was to elucidate the effects of GDF-6 on human IVD nucleus pulposus (NP) cells using a three-dimensional culturing system in vitro and on rat tail IVD tissues using a puncture model in vivo. In vitro, Western blotting showed decreased GDF-6 expression with age and degeneration severity in surgically collected human IVD tissues (n = 12). Then, in moderately degenerated human IVD NP cells treated with GDF-6 (100 ng/mL), immunofluorescence demonstrated an increased expression of matrix components including aggrecan and type II collagen. Quantitative polymerase chain reaction analysis also presented GDF-6-induced downregulation of pro-inflammatory tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α (p = 0.014) and interleukin (IL)-6 (p = 0.016) gene expression stimulated by IL-1β (10 ng/mL). Furthermore, in the mitogen-activated protein kinase pathway, Western blotting displayed GDF-6-induced suppression of p38 phosphorylation (p = 0.041) under IL-1β stimulation. In vivo, intradiscal co-administration of GDF-6 and atelocollagen was effective in alleviating rat tail IVD annular puncture-induced radiologic height loss (p = 0.005), histomorphological degeneration (p < 0.001), matrix metabolism (aggrecan, p < 0.001; type II collagen, p = 0.001), and pro-inflammatory cytokine production (TNF-α, p < 0.001; IL-6, p < 0.001). Consequently, GDF-6 could be a therapeutic growth factor for degenerative IVD disease.2022年03月, Cells, 11(7) (7), 英語, 国際誌研究論文(学術雑誌)
- OBJECTIVE: In the largest avascular low-nutrient intervertebral disc, resident cells would utilize autophagy, a stress-response survival mechanism by self-digestion and recycling wastes. Our goal was to elucidate the involvement of autophagy in disc homeostasis through RNA interference of autophagy-related gene 5 (Atg5). DESIGN: In vitro, small interfering RNAs (siRNAs) targeting autophagy-essential Atg5 were transfected into rat disc cells. Cell viability with levels of autophagy including Atg5 expression, apoptosis, and senescence was assessed under serum starvation and/or pro-inflammatory interleukin-1 beta (IL-1β) stimulation. In vivo, time-course autophagic flux was monitored following Alexa Fluor® 555-labeled Atg5-siRNA injection into rat tail discs. Furthermore, 24-h temporary static compression-induced disruption of Atg5 siRNA-injected discs was observed by radiography, histomorphology, and immunofluorescence. RESULTS: In disc cells, three different Atg5 siRNAs consistently suppressed autophagy with Atg5 protein knockdown (mean 44.4% [95% confidence interval: -51.7, -37.1], 51.5% [-80.5, -22.5], 62.3% [-96.6, -28.2]). Then, Atg5 knockdown reduced cell viability through apoptosis and senescence not in serum-supplemented medium (93.6% [-0.8, 21.4]) but in serum-deprived medium (66.4% [-29.8, -8.6]) further with IL-1β (44.5% [-36.9, -23.5]). In disc tissues, immunofluorescence detected intradiscal signals for the labeled siRNA even at 56-d post-injection. Immunoblotting found 56-d autophagy suppression with prolonged Atg5 knockdown (33.2% [-52.8, -5.3]). With compression, Atg5 siRNA-injected discs presented radiographic height loss ([-43.9, -0.8]), histological damage ([-5.5, -0.2]), and immunofluorescent apoptosis ([2.2, 22.2]) and senescence ([4.1, 19.9]) induction compared to control siRNA-injected discs at 56 d. CONCLUSIONS: This loss-of-function study suggests Atg5-dependent autophagy-mediated anti-apoptosis and anti-senescence. Autophagy could be a molecular therapeutic target for degenerative disc disease.2022年03月, 日本軟骨代謝学会プログラム・抄録集, 30(3) (3), 481 - 493, 英語, 国際誌[査読有り]研究論文(学術雑誌)
- An electrical conductivity-measuring device (ECD) has recently been developed to support pedicle screw placement. However, no evidence exists regarding its efficacy for syndromic/neuromuscular scoliosis with extremely difficult screwing. We retrospectively reviewed 2010-2016 medical records of 21 consecutive syndromic/neuromuscular scoliosis patients undergoing free-hand segmental fixation surgery at our institution and compared the pedicle screw insertion accuracy and safety between 10 with a conventional non-ECD probe (2010-2013) and 11 with an ECD probe (2014-2016). We analyzed preoperative pedicle shape and postoperative screw placement in computed tomography. There were no significant differences between ECD and non-ECD groups in demographic, clinical, and treatment characteristics including scoliosis severity and pedicle diameter. The abandonment rate due to liquorrhea or perforation was lower in ECD (12.3%) than in non-ECD (26.7%) (p < 0.01). Acceptable insertion without perforation or <2-mm lateral/cranial position was more frequent in ECD (67.1%) than in non-ECD (56.9%) (p = 0.02). Critical ≥5-mm medial/caudal malposition was not seen in ECD (0.0%) but in non-ECD (2.4%) (p = 0.02). The perforation distance was shorter in ECD (2.2 ± 1.1 mm) than in non-ECD (2.6 ± 1.7 mm) (p = 0.01). Results involve small sample size, selection, performance, and learning curve biases; nevertheless, ECD could be useful for more accurate and safer pedicle screw placement in severe syndromic/neuromuscular scoliosis.2022年01月, Journal of clinical medicine, 11(2) (2), 英語, 国際誌研究論文(学術雑誌)
- Objective: To clarify the complications of posterior fusion for atlantoaxial instability (AAI) in children with Down syndrome and to discuss the significance of surgical intervention.Methods: Twenty pediatric patients with Down syndrome underwent posterior fusion for AAI between February 2000 and September 2018 (age, 6.1 ± 1.9 years). C1–2 or C1–3 fusion and occipitocervical fusion were performed in 14 and 6 patients, respectively. The past medical history, operation time, estimated blood loss (EBL), duration of Halo vest immobilization, postoperative follow-up period, and intra- and perioperative complications were examined.Results: The operation time was 257.9 ± 55.6 minutes, and the EBL was 101.6 ± 77.9 mL. Complications related to the operation occurred in 6 patients (30.0%). They included 1 major complication (5.0%): hydrocephalus at 3 months postoperatively, possibly related to an intraoperative dural tear. Other surgery-related complications included 3 cases of superficial infections, 1 case of bone graft donor site deep infection, 1 case of C2 pedicle fracture, 1 case of Halo ring dislocation, 1 case of pseudoarthrosis that required revision surgery, and 1 case of temporary neurological deficit after Halo removal at 2 months postoperatively. Complications unrelated to the operation included 2 cases of respiratory infections and 1 case of implant loosening due to a fall at 9 months postoperatively.Conclusion: The complication rate of upper cervical fusion in patients with Down syndrome remained high; however, major complications decreased substantially. Improved intra- and perioperative management facilitates successful surgical intervention for upper cervical instability in pediatric patients with Down syndrome.The Korean Spinal Neurosurgery Society, 2021年12月, Neurospine, 18(4) (4), 778 - 785, 英語, 国際誌研究論文(学術雑誌)
- The retro-odontoid pseudotumor is often concurrent with atlantoaxial subluxation (AAS). Therefore, the pseudotumor is relatively common in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) but rare in primary osteoarthritis (OA). This is a case report of an elderly male patient suffering from neck pain and compression myelopathy caused by the craniocervical pseudotumor with OA but without atlantoaxial instability. He had long-lasting peripheral and spinal pain treated by nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs. Imaging found upper cervical spondylosis without AAS or dynamic instability but with periodontoid calcifications and ossifications, suggesting calcium pyrophosphate dihydrate (CPPD) crystal deposition. Based on a comprehensive literature search and review, CPPD disease around the atlantodental joint is a possible contributor to secondary OA development and retro-odontoid pannus formation through chronic inflammation, which can be enough severe to induce compression myelopathy in non-RA patients without AAS. The global increase in the aged population advises caution regarding more prevalent upper cervical spine disorders associated with OA and CPPD.2021年12月, Neurospine, 18(4) (4), 903 - 913, 英語, 国際誌[査読有り]研究論文(学術雑誌)

- BACKGROUND: Few studies have addressed the impact of palliative surgery for cervical spine metastasis on patients' performance status (PS) and quality of life (QOL). We investigated the surgical outcomes of patients with cervical spine metastasis and the risk factors for a poor outcome with a focus on the PS and QOL. METHODS: We prospectively analyzed patients with cervical spine metastasis who underwent palliative surgery from 2013 to 2018. The Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group PS (ECOGPS) and EuroQol 5-Dimension (EQ5D) score were assessed at study enrollment and 1, 3, and 6 months postoperatively. Neurological function was evaluated with Frankel grading. Univariate and multivariate analyses were performed to identify the risk factors for a poor surgical outcome, defined as no improvement or deterioration after improvement of the ECOGPS or EQ5D score within 3 months. RESULTS: Forty-six patients (mean age, 67.5 ± 11.7 years) were enrolled. Twelve postoperative complications occurred in 11 (23.9%) patients. The median ECOGPS improved from PS3 at study enrolment to PS2 at 1 month and PS1 at 3 and 6 months postoperatively. The mean EQ5D score improved from 0.085 ± 0.487 at study enrolment to 0.658 ± 0.356 at 1 month and 0.753 ± 0.312 at 3 months. A poor outcome was observed in 18 (39.1%) patients. The univariate analysis showed that variables with a P value of < 0.10 were sex (male), the revised Tokuhashi score, the new Katagiri score, the level of the main lesion, and the Frankel grade at baseline. The multivariate analysis identified the level of the main lesion (cervicothoracic junction) as the significant risk factor (odds ratio, 5.00; P = 0.025). CONCLUSIONS: Palliative surgery for cervical spine metastasis improved the PS and QOL, but a cervicothoracic junction lesion could be a risk factor for a poor outcome.2021年07月, Journal of orthopaedic surgery and research, 16(1) (1), 423 - 423, 英語, 国際誌研究論文(学術雑誌)
- INTRODUCTION: Corrective surgery for spinal deformity associated with osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) is challenging due to the severe and rigid deformity combined with extreme bone fragility. However, surgical outcomes still remain unclear. In addition, the applicability of pedicle screws (PSs) to the tiny and fragile vertebrae in patients with OI is poorly understood. This study evaluated the surgical outcome, and the accuracy and safety of PS placement in patients with OI. METHODS: Twenty-five patients with OI were included in this study. Mean age was 21.0±9.3 (10 to 49) years. Mean follow-up was 5.8±2.0 years. The Sillence classification showed 16 patients had the mildest type I, 1 patient had moderate type IV, and 8 patients had the most severe type III. Fifteen patients underwent anterior release followed by posterior fusion, and 10 patients underwent only posterior fusion. The accuracy of PS placement was evaluated with postoperative computed tomography. RESULTS: Scoliosis was corrected from 95.6 to 65.8 degrees after surgery (correction rate 32.5%) and 68.1 degrees at final follow-up (both, P<0.01). Space available for the lung was improved from 76.3% to 84.9% (P<0.05). No implant dislodgement occurred after surgery. A total of 290 screws were placed, of which 213 screws (73.4%) were placed completely. However, 30 screws (10.3%) penetrated >2 mm. In particular, rates of >2 mm penetration was much higher in type III than type I and IV (27.8% vs. 3.0%; P<0.01). Complications related to spinal surgery included 2 transient neurological disturbances. CONCLUSIONS: PSs were applicable to spinal fusion surgery in patients with OI. However special care should be taken in placing PSs because of the weakness of the pedicle cortex, which was easily penetrated especially in Sillence type III.

- Background: The rabbit lumbar spine is a commonly utilized model for studying intervertebral disc degeneration and for the pre-clinical evaluation of regenerative therapies. Histopathology is the foundation for which alterations to disc morphology and cellularity with degeneration, or following repair or treatment are assessed. Despite this, no standardized histology grading scale has yet been established for the spine field for any of the frequently utilized animal models. Aims: The purpose of this study was to establish a new standardized scoring system to assess disc degeneration and regeneration in the rabbit model. Materials and Methods: The scoring system was formulated following a review of the literature and a survey of spine researchers. Validation of the scoring system was carried out using images provided by 4 independent laboratories, which were graded by 12 independent graders of varying experience levels. Reliability testing was performed via the computation of intra-class correlation coefficients (ICC) for each category and the total score. The scoring system was then further refined based on the results of the ICC analysis and discussions amongst the authors. Results: The final general scoring system involves scoring 7 features (nucleus pulposus shape, area, cellularity and matrix condensation, annulus fibrosus/nucleus pulposus border appearance, annulus fibrosus morphology, and endplate sclerosis/thickening) on a 0 (healthy) to 2 (severe degeneration) scale. ICCs demonstrated overall moderate to good agreement across graders. An addendum to the main scoring system is also included for use in studies evaluating regenerative therapeutics, which involves scoring cell cloning and morphology within the nucleus pulposus and inner annulus fibrosus. Discussion: Overall, this new scoring system provides an avenue to improve standardization, allow a more accurate comparison between labs and more robust evaluation of pathophysiology and regenerative treatments across the field. Conclusion: This study developed a histopathology scoring system for degeneration and regeneration in the rabbit model based on reported practice in the literature, a survey of spine researchers, and validation testing.2021年06月, JOR spine, 4(2) (2), e1147, 英語, 国際誌研究論文(学術雑誌)
- Background: Rats are a widely accepted preclinical model for evaluating intervertebral disc (IVD) degeneration and regeneration. IVD morphology is commonly assessed using histology, which forms the foundation for quantifying the state of IVD degeneration. IVD degeneration severity is evaluated using different grading systems that focus on distinct degenerative features. A standard grading system would facilitate more accurate comparison across laboratories and more robust comparisons of different models and interventions. Aims: This study aimed to develop a histology grading system to quantify IVD degeneration for different rat models. Materials & Methods: This study involved a literature review, a survey of experts in the field, and a validation study using 25 slides that were scored by 15 graders from different international institutes to determine inter- and intra-rater reliability. Results: A new IVD degeneration grading system was established and it consists of eight significant degenerative features, including nucleus pulposus (NP) shape, NP area, NP cell number, NP cell morphology, annulus fibrosus (AF) lamellar organization, AF tears/fissures/disruptions, NP-AF border appearance, as well as endplate disruptions/microfractures and osteophyte/ossification. The validation study indicated this system was easily adopted, and able to discern different severities of degenerative changes from different rat IVD degeneration models with high reproducibility for both experienced and inexperienced graders. In addition, a widely-accepted protocol for histological preparation of rat IVD samples based on the survey findings include paraffin embedding, sagittal orientation, section thickness < 10 μm, and staining using H&E and/or SO/FG to facilitate comparison across laboratories. Conclusion: The proposed histological preparation protocol and grading system provide a platform for more precise comparisons and more robust evaluation of rat IVD degeneration models and interventions across laboratories.2021年06月, JOR spine, 4(2) (2), e1150, 英語, 国際誌研究論文(学術雑誌)
- The intervertebral disc is the largest avascular low-nutrient organ in the body. Thus, resident cells may utilize autophagy, a stress-response survival mechanism, by self-digesting and recycling damaged components. Our objective was to elucidate the involvement of autophagy in rat experimental disc degeneration. In vitro, the comparison between human and rat disc nucleus pulposus (NP) and annulus fibrosus (AF) cells found increased autophagic flux under serum deprivation rather in humans than in rats and in NP cells than in AF cells of rats (n = 6). In vivo, time-course Western blotting showed more distinct basal autophagy in rat tail disc NP tissues than in AF tissues; however, both decreased under sustained static compression (n = 24). Then, immunohistochemistry displayed abundant autophagy-related protein expression in large vacuolated disc NP notochordal cells of sham rats. Under temporary static compression (n = 18), multi-color immunofluorescence further identified rapidly decreased brachyury-positive notochordal cells with robust expression of autophagic microtubule-associated protein 1 light chain 3 (LC3) and transiently increased brachyury-negative non-notochordal cells with weaker LC3 expression. Notably, terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase dUTP nick end labeling-positive apoptotic death was predominant in brachyury-negative non-notochordal cells. Based on the observed notochordal cell autophagy impairment and non-notochordal cell apoptosis induction under unphysiological mechanical loading, further investigation is warranted to clarify possible autophagy-induced protection against notochordal cell disappearance, the earliest sign of disc degeneration, through limiting apoptosis.2021年05月, International journal of molecular sciences, 22(11) (11), 英語, 国際誌研究論文(学術雑誌)
- The intervertebral disc is the largest avascular organ. Autophagy is an important cell survival mechanism by self-digestion and recycling damaged components under stress, primarily nutrient deprivation. Resident cells would utilize autophagy to cope with the harsh disc environment. Our objective was to elucidate the roles of human disc cellular autophagy. In human disc cells, serum deprivation and pro-inflammatory interleukin-1β (IL-1β) stimulation increased autophagy marker microtubule-associated protein 1 light chain 3 (LC3)-II and decreased autophagy substrate p62/sequestosome 1 (p62/SQSTM1), indicating enhanced autophagy. Then, RNA interference (RNAi) of autophagy-related gene 5 (ATG5), essential for autophagy, showed decreases in ATG5 protein (26.8%-27.4%, p < 0.0001), which suppressed early-stage autophagy with decreased LC3-II and increased p62/SQSTM1. Cell viability was maintained by ATG5 RNAi in serum-supplemented media (95.5%, p = 0.28) but reduced in serum-free media (80.4%, p = 0.0013) with IL-1β (69.9%, p = 0.0008). Moreover, ATG5 RNAi accelerated IL-1β-induced changes in apoptosis and senescence. Meanwhile, ATG5 RNAi unaffected IL-1β-induced catabolic matrix metalloproteinase release, down-regulated anabolic gene expression, and mitogen-activated protein kinase pathway activation. Lysosomotropic chloroquine supplementation presented late-stage autophagy inhibition with apoptosis and senescence induction, while catabolic enzyme production was modest. Disc-tissue analysis detected age-related changes in ATG5, LC3-II, and p62/SQSTM1. In summary, autophagy protects against human disc cellular apoptosis and senescence rather than extracellular matrix catabolism.2021年04月, International journal of molecular sciences, 22(8) (8), 英語, 国際誌研究論文(学術雑誌)
- Management of bone metastasis is becoming increasingly important. Thus, local and systemic treatment options have been developed for control. Although systemic administration of anticancer agents is effective for bone metastasis, it is often stopped because of poor general conditions or side effects. Therefore, it is highly desirable to develop a more effective and safer local treatment for bone metastasis. The purpose of the current study was to investigate the antitumor effects and safety of gelatin hydrogel microspheres incorporating cisplatin (GM-CDDP), which we developed as a sustained release system without harmful substances. First, we assessed GM-CDDP for its in vitro degradability and potential for sustained release. Second, in vivo antitumor and side effects were evaluated using a murine bone metastasis model of MDA-MB-231 human breast cancer cells incorporating GFP. In vitro, initial bursts were observed within 2 h and CDDP was released gradually with gelatin hydrogel degradation, which reached 100% at 48 h. In vivo, local administration of GM-CDDP (2 mg/kg) significantly suppressed tumor growth and bone osteolysis compared with the control, and local and systemic administration of free CDDP (2 mg/kg; p < 0.05). Local administration of GM-CDDP significantly reduced loss of body weight and elevation of blood urea nitrogen compared with the systemic administration of free CDDP (p < .05). The current study suggests that local administration of GM-CDDP achieves higher antitumor effects with a potential for lesser side effects compared with local or systemic administration of free CDDP.2021年03月, Journal of orthopaedic research : official publication of the Orthopaedic Research Society, 39(3) (3), 525 - 535, 英語, 国際誌[査読有り]研究論文(学術雑誌)
- AIMS: With recent progress in cancer treatment, the number of advanced-age patients with spinal metastases has been increasing. It is important to clarify the influence of advanced age on outcomes following surgery for spinal metastases, especially with a focus on subjective health state values. METHODS: We prospectively analyzed 101 patients with spinal metastases who underwent palliative surgery from 2013 to 2016. These patients were divided into two groups based on age (< 70 years and ≥ 70 years). The Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status (PS), Barthel index (BI), and EuroQol-5 dimension (EQ-5D) score were assessed at study enrolment and at one, three, and six months after surgery. The survival times and complications were also collected. RESULTS: In total, 65 patients were aged < 70 years (mean 59.6 years; 32 to 69) and 36 patients were aged ≥ 70 years (mean 75.9 years; 70 to 90). In both groups, the PS improved from PS3 to PS1 by spine surgery, the mean BI improved from < 60 to > 80 points, and the mean EQ-5D score improved from 0.0 to > 0.7 points. However, no significant differences were found in the improvement rates and values of the PS, BI, and EQ-5D score at any time points between the two groups. The PS, BI, and EQ-5D score improved throughout the follow-up period in approximately 90% of patients in each group. However, the improved PS, BI, and EQ-5D scores subsequently deteriorated in some patients, and the redeterioration rate of the EQ-5D was significantly higher in patients aged ≥ 70 than < 70 years (p = 0.027). CONCLUSION: Palliative surgery for spinal metastases improved the PS, activities of daily living, and quality of life, regardless of age. However, clinicians should be aware of the higher risk of redeterioration of the quality of life in advanced-age patients.

- The loss of nucleus pulposus (NP) notochordal cells is one of the key initial hallmarks of age-related intervertebral disc degeneration. Although the transmembrane mechanoreceptor integrin α5β1 is important in the process of disc degeneration, the relationship between integrin α5β1 and notochordal cell disappearance remains unclear. The purpose of this study was to elucidate the role of integrin α5β1 in the homeostasis of notochordal cells using an ex-vivo dynamic loading culture system that we developed. Rat tail functional spinal units (n = 80 from 40 rats) were cultured under unloading or 1.3-MPa, 1.0-Hz dynamic compressive loading for 48 or 144 h with or without an integrin α5β1 inhibitor. Disc histomorphology, cell viability, apoptosis, senescence, and phenotypic expression were investigated. Consequently, histological degenerative disc changes with decreased cell viability and increased cell apoptosis and senescence were observed with an extended loading duration. Immunofluorescence revealed that the expression of notochordal cell markers, CD24 and brachyury, and chondrocyte markers, collagen type II and SRY-box 9, declined with loading. In particular, reduction in notochordal cell marker expression was more dramatic than that in chondrocyte marker expression. Apoptotic terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase dUTP nick-end labeling positivity was also higher in brachyury-positive notochordal cells. Furthermore, all these changes were delayed by inhibiting integrin α5β1. Findings of our dynamic loading regimen with a relatively high pressure suggest reproducibility of the cellularity and phenotypic disappearance of NP notochordal cells during adolescence, the susceptibility of notochordal cells to mechanical stimuli partially through the integrin α5β1 pathway, and future potential treatment of integrin regulation for intervertebral disc disease.2020年10月, Journal of orthopaedic research : official publication of the Orthopaedic Research Society, 39(9) (9), 1933 - 1944, 英語, 国際誌[査読有り]研究論文(学術雑誌)

- BACKGROUND: Vertebroplasty with posterior spinal fusion (VP + PSF) is one of the most widely accepted surgical techniques for treating osteoporotic vertebral collapse (OVC). Nevertheless, the effect of the extent of fusion on surgical outcomes remains to be established. This study aimed to evaluate the surgical outcomes of short- versus long-segment VP + PSF for OVC with neurological impairment in thoracolumbar spine. METHODS: We retrospectively collected data from 133 patients (median age, 77 years; 42 men and 91 women) from 27 university hospitals and their affiliated hospitals. We divided patients into two groups: a short-segment fusion group (S group) with 2- or 3-segment fusion (87 patients) and a long-segment fusion group (L group) with 4- through 6-segment fusion (46 patients). Surgical invasion, clinical outcomes, local kyphosis angle (LKA), and complications were evaluated. RESULTS: No significant differences between the two groups were observed in terms of neurological recovery, pain scale scores, and complications. Surgical time was shorter and blood loss was less in the S group, whereas LKA at the final follow-up and correction loss were superior in the L group. CONCLUSION: Although less invasiveness and validity of pain and neurological relief are secured by short-segment VP + PSF, surgeons should be cautious regarding correction loss.2020年08月, BMC musculoskeletal disorders, 21(1) (1), 513 - 513, 英語, 国際誌[査読有り]研究論文(学術雑誌)

- BACKGROUND: The optimal treatment of osteoporosis after reconstruction surgery for osteoporotic vertebral fractures (OVF) remains unclear. In this multicentre retrospective study, we investigated the effects of typically used agents for osteoporosis, namely, bisphosphonates (BP) and teriparatide (TP), on surgical results in patients with osteoporotic vertebral fractures. METHODS: Retrospectively registered data were collected from 27 universities and affiliated hospitals in Japan. We compared the effects of BP vs TP on postoperative mechanical complication rates, implant-related reoperation rates, and clinical outcomes in patients who underwent posterior instrumented fusion for OVF. Data were analysed according to whether the osteoporosis was primary or glucocorticoid-induced. RESULTS: A total of 159 patients who underwent posterior instrumented fusion for OVF were included. The overall mechanical complication rate was significantly lower in the TP group than in the BP group (BP vs TP: 73.1% vs 58.2%, p = 0.045). The screw backout rate was significantly lower and the rates of new vertebral fractures and pseudoarthrosis tended to be lower in the TP group than in the BP group. However, there were no significant differences in lumbar functional scores and visual analogue scale pain scores or in implant-related reoperation rates between the two groups. The incidence of pseudoarthrosis was significantly higher in patients with glucocorticoid-induced osteoporosis (GIOP) than in those with primary osteoporosis; however, the pseudoarthrosis rate was reduced by using TP. The use of TP also tended to reduce the overall mechanical complication rate in both primary osteoporosis and GIOP. CONCLUSIONS: The overall mechanical complication rate was lower in patients who received TP than in those who received a BP postoperatively, regardless of type of osteoporosis. The incidence of pseudoarthrosis was significantly higher in patients with GIOP, but the use of TP reduced the rate of pseudoarthrosis in GIOP patients. The use of TP was effective to reduce postoperative complications for OVF patients treated with posterior fusion.2020年07月, BMC musculoskeletal disorders, 21(1) (1), 420 - 420, 英語, 国際誌[査読有り]研究論文(学術雑誌)
- PURPOSE: Osteoporotic vertebral fracture (OVF) with nonunion or neurological deficit may be a candidate for surgical treatment. However, some patients do not show improvement as expected. Therefore, we conducted a nationwide multicenter study to determine the predictors for postoperative poor activity of daily living (ADL) in patients with OVF. METHODS: We retrospectively reviewed the case histories of 309 patients with OVF who underwent surgery. To determine the factors predicting postoperative poor ADL, uni- and multivariate statistical analyses were performed. RESULTS: The frequency of poor ADL at final follow-up period was 9.1%. In univariate analysis, preoperative neurological deficit (OR, 4.1; 95% CI, 1.8-10.3; P < 0.001), perioperative complication (OR, 3.4; P = 0.006), absence of preoperative bone-modifying agent (BMA) administration (OR, 2.7; P = 0.03), and absence of postoperative recombinant human parathyroid hormone (rPTH) administration (OR, 3.9; P = 0.006) were significantly associated. In multivariate analysis, preoperative neurological deficit (OR, 4.6; P < 0.001), perioperative complication (OR, 3.4; P = 0.01), and absence of postoperative rPTH administration (OR, 3.9; P = 0.02) showed statistical significance. CONCLUSIONS: Preoperative neurological deficit, perioperative complication, and absence of postoperative rPTH administration were considered as predictors for postoperative poor ADL in patients with OVF. Neurological deficits and complications are often inevitable factors; therefore, rPTH is an important option for postoperative treatment for OVF.

- STUDY DESIGN: Retrospective case series. OBJECTIVE: To elucidate the postoperative course of sagittal alignment in patients with congenital thoracolumbar to lumbar kyphosis or kyphoscoliosis. Acquisition of acceptable sagittal alignment is essential to treat spinal deformity. Little evidence exists regarding long-term surgical outcomes on sagittal alignment in congenital kyphosis or kyphoscoliosis. METHODS: Sixteen consecutive patients (mean age 10.5 ± 3.5 years) with congenital kyphosis or kyphoscoliosis who underwent vertebra resection and osteotomy with instrumentation by single posterior or combined anterior and posterior approach were included. Preoperative radiographs identified kyphosis in 3 patients and kyphoscoliosis in 13 patients. All patients had clinical and radiologic follow-up for > 10 years (mean 16.3 ± 4.0 years). RESULTS: Segmental kyphosis was significantly improved from 33.9° ± 20.1° to 14.9° ± 17.6° by surgery and was finally maintained at 16.8° ± 22.2° and sagittal vertical axis (SVA) of 13.1 ± 33.7 mm at preoperation and 18.3 ± 22.1 mm at postoperation significantly increased to 26.8 ± 45.7 mm during follow-up. Of the 16 patients, 5 (31%) were identified as those with SVA > 40 mm, and SVA increases > 30 mm during follow-up. In patients with sagittal malalignment, radiographs demonstrated decreased lumbar lordosis at the lower foundation from 28.8° ± 39.0° to 17.0° ± 17.6°, significant increased pelvic tilt from 25.8° ± 5.4° to 37.4° ± 7.4° during follow-up (p < 0.05), and larger residual segmental kyphosis than those in the 11 patients without sagittal malalignment with statistical significance. Of the five cases, progression of local kyphosis (one case) and sagittal decompensation, including decreased lumbar lordosis with disc degeneration (four cases), increased pelvic tilt (three cases), or proximal junctional kyphosis (two cases), were observed. CONCLUSION: Based on this > 10-year follow-up study, residual kyphosis and sagittal decompensation are revealed to be risk factors for postoperative sagittal malalignment in patients with congenital thoracolumbar to lumbar kyphosis or kyphoscoliosis.

- Laminoplasty using hydroxyapatite (HA) spacers is widely performed in patients with cervical myelopathy. However, spacer dislocation is a critical complication caused by bone absorption and inadequate bone conductivity, and can result in dural damage and restenosis. We thus designed a prospective cohort study to clarify the feasibility of increased porosity HA spacers for double-door laminoplasty by analyzing computed tomography (CT) images. Forty-seven patients underwent cervical laminoplasty. Two different types of CERATITE HA spacer were used, either high porosity (50%) or low porosity (35%). These HA spacers were placed in an alternating manner into the laminae in each patient. In total, 85 high-porosity (50%) HA spacers and 84 low-porosity (35%) HA spacers were implanted. At postoperative 2 weeks, 3 months, 6 months, and 1 year, CT images were obtained. In both groups, the percentage of bone-bonding boundary area of the HA spacer in contact with laminae and bone volume of the spinous process relative to the 2-week value were calculated by a 3D and 2D CT-image pixel analysis. The bone-bonding ratio was significantly higher in high-porosity (50%) than low-porosity (35%) HA spacers at 3 months and thereafter (1 year, 69.3 ± 27.8% and 49.7 ± 32.9% respectively, P < .01). The bone volume in both groups significantly decreased with time (1 year, 73.2 ± 29.8% and 69.0 ± 30.4% respectively, P < .01), indicating bone absorption. This showed no significant difference between the HA spacers (P = .15) but was higher in high-porosity (50%) than low-porosity (35%) HA spacers throughout the study period. Meanwhile, spacer breakage was found in 4.7% of high-porosity (50%) HA spacers and 1.2% of low-porosity (35%) HA spacers (P = .37). In summary, high-porosity (50%) HA spacers have the advantages of accelerated bone bonding and relatively decelerated bone absorption compared to low-porosity (35%) HA spacers; however, possibly more frequent breakage of HA spacers with a high porosity (50%) requires careful, extended postoperative follow-up.2020年03月, JOR spine, 3(1) (1), e1080, 英語, 国際誌[査読有り]研究論文(学術雑誌)
- Degenerative disc disease is a highly prevalent, global health problem that represents the primary cause of back pain and is associated with neurological disorders, including radiculopathy, myelopathy, and paralysis, resulting in worker disability and socioeconomic burdens. The intervertebral disc is the largest avascular organ in the body, and degeneration is suspected to be linked to nutritional deficiencies. Autophagy, the process through which cells self-digest and recycle damaged components, is an important cell survival mechanism under stress conditions, especially nutrient deprivation. Autophagy is negatively controlled by the mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) signaling pathway. mTOR is a serine/threonine kinase that detects nutrient availability to trigger the activation of cell growth and protein synthesis pathways. Thus, resident disc cells may utilize autophagy and mTOR signaling to cope with harsh low-nutrient conditions, such as low glucose, low oxygen, and low pH. We performed rabbit and human disc cell and tissue studies to elucidate the involvement and roles played by autophagy and mTOR signaling in the intervertebral disc. In vitro serum and nutrient deprivation studies resulted in decreased disc cell proliferation and metabolic activity and increased apoptosis and senescence, in addition to increased autophagy. The selective RNA interference-mediated and pharmacological inhibition of mTOR complex 1 (mTORC1) was protective against inflammation-induced disc cellular apoptosis, senescence, and extracellular matrix catabolism, through the induction of autophagy and the activation of the Akt-signaling network. Although temsirolimus, a rapamycin derivative with improved water solubility, was the most effective mTORC1 inhibitor tested, dual mTOR inhibitors, capable of blocking multiple mTOR complexes, did not rescue disc cells. In vivo, high levels of mTOR-signaling molecule expression and phosphorylation were observed in human intermediately degenerated discs and decreased with age. A mechanistic understanding of autophagy and mTOR signaling can provide a basis for the development of biological therapies to treat degenerative disc disease.2020年03月, JOR spine, 3(1) (1), e1082, 英語, 国際誌[査読有り]研究論文(学術雑誌)
- Intervertebral disc degeneration is the primary cause of back pain and associated with neurological disorders including radiculopathy, myelopathy, and paralysis. The currently available surgical treatments predominantly include the excision of pathological discs, resulting in the function loss, immobilization, and potential additional complications due to the altered biomechanics. Gene therapy approach involves gene transfer into cells, affects RNA and protein synthesis of the encoded genes in the recipient cells, and facilitates biological treatment. Relatively long-exerting therapeutic effects by gene therapy are potentially advantageous to treat slow progressive degenerative disc disease. In gene therapy, the delivery method and selection of target gene(s) are essential. Although gene therapy was first mediated by viral vectors, technological progress has enabled to apply nonviral vectors and polyplex micelles for the disc. While RNA interference successfully provides specific downregulation of multiple genes in the disc, clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR) system has increased attention to alter the process of intervertebral disc degeneration. Then, more recent findings of our studies have suggested autophagy, the intracellular self-digestion, and recycling system under the negative regulation by the mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR), as a gene therapy target in the disc. Here we briefly review backgrounds and applications of gene therapy for the disc, introducing strategies of autophagy and mTOR signaling modulation through selective RNA interference.2020年03月, Neurospine, 17(1) (1), 3 - 14, 英語, 国際誌[査読有り]研究論文(学術雑誌)
- Back pain is a global health problem with a high morbidity and socioeconomic burden. Intervertebral disc herniation and degeneration are its primary cause, further associated with neurological radiculopathy, myelopathy, and paralysis. The current surgical treatment is principally discectomy, resulting in the loss of spinal movement and shock absorption. Therefore, the development of disc regenerative therapies is essential. Here we show reduced disc damage by a new collagen type I-based scaffold through actinidain hydrolysis-Low Adhesive Scaffold Collagen (LASCol)-with a high 3D spheroid-forming capability, water-solubility, and biodegradability and low antigenicity. In human disc nucleus pulposus and annulus fibrosus cells surgically obtained, time-dependent spheroid formation with increased expression of phenotypic markers and matrix components was observed on LASCol but not atelocollagen (AC). In a rat tail nucleotomy model, LASCol-injected and AC-injected discs presented relatively similar radiographic and MRI damage control; however, LASCol, distinct from AC, decelerated histological disc disruption, showing collagen type I-comprising LASCol degradation, aggrecan-positive and collagen type II-positive endogenous cell migration, and M1-polarized and also M2-polarized macrophage infiltration. Reduced nucleotomy-induced disc disruption through spontaneous spheroid formation by LASCol warrants further investigations of whether it may be an effective treatment without stem cells and/or growth factors for intervertebral disc disease.2020年03月, Biomaterials, 235, 119781 - 119781, 英語, 国際誌[査読有り]研究論文(学術雑誌)
- Introduction: Osteoporotic vertebral fracture (OVF) is the most common osteoporotic fracture, and some patients require surgical intervention to improve their impaired activities of daily living with neurological deficits. However, many previous reports have focused on OVF around the thoracolumbar junction, and the surgical outcomes of lumbar OVF have not been thoroughly discussed. We aimed to investigate the surgical outcomes for lumbar OVF with a neurological deficit. Methods: Patients who underwent fusion surgery for thoracolumbar OVF with a neurological deficit were enrolled at 28 institutions. Clinical information, comorbidities, perioperative complications, Japanese Orthopaedic Association scores, visual analog scale scores, and radiographic parameters were compared between patients with lower lumbar fracture (L3-5) and those with thoracolumbar junction fracture (T10-L2). Each patient with lower lumbar fracture (L group) was matched with to patients with thoracolumbar junction fracture (T group). Results: A total 403 patients (89 males and 314 females, mean age: 73.8 ± 7.8 years, mean follow-up: 3.9 ± 1.7 years) were included in this study. Lower lumbar OVF was frequently found in patients with lower bone mineral density. After matching, mechanical failure was more frequent in the L group (L group: 64%, T group: 39%; p < 0.001). There was no difference between groups in the clinical and radiographical outcomes, although the rates of complication and revision surgery were still high in both groups. Conclusions: The surgical intervention for OVF is effective in patients with myelopathy or radiculopathy regardless of the surgical level, although further study is required to improve clinical and radiographical outcomes. Level of evidence: Level III.2020年, Spine surgery and related research, 4(3) (3), 199 - 207, 英語, 国内誌研究論文(学術雑誌)
- INTRODUCTION: The prevalence of patients with osteoporosis continues to increase in aging societies, including Japan. The first choice for managing osteoporotic vertebral compression fracture (OVF) is conservative treatment. Failure in conservative treatment for OVF may lead to non-union or vertebral collapse, resulting in neurological deficit and subsequently requiring surgical intervention. This multicenter nationwide study in Japan was conducted to comprehensively understand the outcomes of surgical treatments for OVF non-union. METHODS: This multicenter, retrospective study included 403 patients (89 males, 314 females, mean age 73.8 ± 7.8 years, mean follow-up 3.9 ± 1.7 years) with neurological deficit due to vertebral collapse or non-union after OVF at T10-L5 who underwent fusion surgery with a minimum 1-year follow-up. Radiological and clinical outcomes at baseline and at the final follow-up (FU) were evaluated. RESULTS: OVF was present at a thoracolumbar junction such as T12 (124 patients) and L1 (117 patients). A majority of OVF occurred after a minor trauma, such as falling down (55.3%) or lifting objects (8.4%). Short segment fusion, including affected vertebra, was conducted (mean 4.0 ± 2.0 vertebrae) with 256.8 minutes of surgery and 676.1 g of blood loss. A posterior approach was employed in 86.6% of the patients, followed by a combined anterior and posterior (8.7%), and an anterior (4.7%) approach. Perioperative complications and implant failures were observed in 18.1% and 41.2%, respectively. VAS scores of low back pain (74.7 to 30.8 mm) and leg pain (56.8 to 20.7 mm) improved significantly at FU. Preoperatively, 52.6% of the patients were unable to walk and the rate of non-ambulatory patients decreased to 7.5% at FU. CONCLUSIONS: This study demonstrated that substantial improvement in activity of daily living (ADL) was achieved by fusion surgery. Although there was a considerable rate of complications, fusion surgery is beneficial for elderly OVF patients with non-union.2020年, Spine surgery and related research, 4(3) (3), 292 - 293, 英語, 国内誌研究論文(学術雑誌)
- BACKGROUND: A consensus on the optimal surgical procedure for thoracolumbar OVF has yet to be reached due to the previous relatively small number of case series. The study was conducted to investigate surgical outcomes for osteoporotic vertebral fracture (OVF) in the thoracolumbar spine. METHODS: In total, 315 OVF patients (mean age, 74 years; 68 men and 247 women) with neurological symptoms who underwent spinal fusion with a minimum 2-year follow-up were included. The patients were divided into 5 groups by procedure: anterior spinal fusion alone (ASF group, n = 19), anterior/posterior combined fusion (APSF group, n = 27), posterior spinal fusion alone (PSF group, n = 40), PSF with 3-column osteotomy (3CO group, n = 92), and PSF with vertebroplasty (VP + PSF group, n = 137). RESULTS: Mean operation time was longer in the APSF group (p < 0.05), and intraoperative blood loss was lower in the VP + PSF group (p < 0.05). The amount of local kyphosis correction was greater in the APSF and 3CO groups (p < 0.05). Clinical outcomes were approximately equivalent among all groups. CONCLUSION: All 5 procedures resulted in acceptable neurological outcomes and functional improvement in walking ability. Moreover, they were similar with regard to complication rates, prevalence of mechanical failure related to the instrumentation, and subsequent vertebral fracture. Individual surgical techniques can be adapted to suit patient condition or severity of OVF.2019年11月, Journal of orthopaedic science : official journal of the Japanese Orthopaedic Association, 24(6) (6), 1020 - 1026, 英語, 国内誌[査読有り]研究論文(学術雑誌)
- BACKGROUND: There have been few reports on the incidence and risk factors of the complications after spinal fixation surgery for osteoporotic vertebral collapse (OVC) with neurological deficits. This study aimed to identify the incidence and risk factors of the complications after OVC surgery. METHODS: In this retrospective multicenter study, a total of 403 patients (314 women and 89 men; mean age 73.8 years) who underwent spinal fixation surgery for OVC with neurological deficits between 2005 and 2014 were enrolled. Data on patient demographics were collected, including age, sex, body mass index, smoking, steroid use, medical comorbidities, and surgical procedures. All postoperative complications that occurred within 6 weeks were recorded. Patients were classified into two groups, namely, complication group and no complication group, and risk factors for postoperative complications were investigated by univariate and multivariate analyses. RESULTS: Postoperative complications occurred in 57 patients (14.1%), and the most common complication was delirium (5.7%). In the univariate analysis, the complication group was found to be older (p = 0.039) and predominantly male (p = 0.049), with higher occurrence rate of liver disease (p = 0.001) and Parkinson's disease (p = 0.039) compared with the no-complication group. In the multivariate analysis, the significant independent risk factors were age (p = 0.021; odds ratio [OR] 1.051, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.007-1.097), liver disease (p < 0.001; OR 8.993, 95% CI 2.882-28.065), and Parkinson's disease (p = 0.009; OR 3.636, 95% CI 1.378-9.599). CONCLUSIONS: Complications after spinal fixation surgery for OVC with neurological deficits occurred in 14.1%. Age, liver disease, and Parkinson's disease were demonstrated to be independent risk factors for postoperative complications.2019年11月, Journal of orthopaedic science : official journal of the Japanese Orthopaedic Association, 24(6) (6), 985 - 990, 英語, 国内誌[査読有り]研究論文(学術雑誌)
- Aging-related loss of adult stem cell function contributes to impaired tissue regeneration. Mice deficient in zinc metalloproteinase STE24 (Zmpste24-/-) exhibit premature age-related musculoskeletal pathologies similar to those observed in children with Hutchinson-Gilford progeria syndrome (HGPS). We have reported that muscle-derived stem/progenitor cells (MDSPCs) isolated from Zmpste24-/- mice are defective in their proliferation and differentiation capabilities in culture and during tissue regeneration. The mechanistic target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1) regulates cell growth, and inhibition of the mTORC1 pathway extends the lifespan of several animal species. We therefore hypothesized that inhibition of mTORC1 signaling would rescue the differentiation defects observed in progeroid MDSPCs. MDSPCs were isolated from Zmpste24 -/- mice, and the effects of mTORC1 on MDSPC differentiation and function were examined. We found that mTORC1 signaling was increased in senescent Zmpste24-/- MDSPCs, along with impaired chondrogenic, osteogenic, and myogenic differentiation capacity versus wild-type MDSPCs. Interestingly, we observed that mTORC1 inhibition with rapamycin improved myogenic and chondrogenic differentiation and reduced levels of apoptosis and senescence in Zmpste24-/- MDSPCs. Our results demonstrate that age-related adult stem/progenitor cell dysfunction contributes to impaired regenerative capacities and that mTORC1 inhibition may represent a potential therapeutic strategy for improving differentiation capacities of senescent stem and muscle progenitor cells.2019年09月, Molecular therapy.

- OBJECTIVE: The mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) is a serine/threonine kinase that integrates nutrients to execute cell growth. We hypothesized that mTOR is influential in the intervertebral disc-largest avascular, low-nutrient organ. Our objective was to identify the optimal mTOR inhibitor for treating human degenerative disc disease. DESIGN: mTOR complex 1 (mTORC1) regulates p70/ribosomal S6 kinase (p70/S6K), negatively regulates autophagy, and is controlled by Akt. Akt is controlled by phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K) and mTOR complex 2 (mTORC2). mTORC1 inhibitors-rapamycin, temsirolimus, everolimus, and curcumin, mTORC1&mTORC2 inhibitor-INK-128, PI3K&mTOR inhibitor-NVP-BEZ235, and Akt inhibitor-MK-2206-were applied to human disc nucleus pulposus (NP) cells. mTOR signaling, autophagy, apoptosis, senescence, and matrix metabolism were evaluated. RESULTS: mTORC1 inhibitors decreased p70/S6K but increased Akt phosphorylation, promoted autophagy with light chain 3 (LC3)-II increases and p62/sequestosome 1 (p62/SQSTM1) decreases, and suppressed pro-inflammatory interleukin-1 beta (IL-1β)-induced apoptotic terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase dUTP nick end labeling (TUNEL) positivity (versus rapamycin, 95% confidence interval (CI) -0.431 to -0.194; temsirolimus, 95% CI -0.529 to -0.292; everolimus, 95% CI -0.477 to -0.241; curcumin, 95% CI -0.248 to -0.011) and poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) and caspase-9 cleavage, senescent senescence-associated beta-galactosidase (SA-β-gal) positivity (versus rapamycin, 95% CI -0.437 to -0.230; temsirolimus, 95% CI -0.534 to -0.327; everolimus, 95% CI -0.485 to -0.278; curcumin, 95% CI -0.210 to -0.003) and p16/INK4A expression, and catabolic matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) release and activation. Meanwhile, dual mTOR inhibitors decreased p70/S6K and Akt phosphorylation without enhanced autophagy and suppressed apoptosis, senescence, and matrix catabolism. MK-2206 counteracted protective effects of temsirolimus. Additional disc-tissue analysis found relevance of mTOR signaling to degeneration grades. CONCLUSION: mTORC1 inhibitors-notably temsirolimus with an improved water solubility-but not dual mTOR inhibitors protect against inflammation-induced apoptosis, senescence, and matrix catabolism in human disc cells, which depends on Akt and autophagy induction.2019年06月, Osteoarthritis and cartilage, 27(6) (6), 965 - 976, 英語, 国際誌[査読有り]研究論文(学術雑誌)

- PURPOSE: The loss of nutrient supply is a suspected contributor of intervertebral disc degeneration. However, the extent to which low nutrition affects disc annulus fibrosus (AF) cells is unknown as nutrient deprivation has mainly been investigated in disc nucleus pulposus cells. Hence, an experimental study was designed to clarify the effects of limited nutrients on disc AF cell fate, including autophagy, the process by which cells recycle their own damaged components. METHODS: Rabbit disc AF cells were cultured in different media with varying serum concentrations under 5% oxygen. Cellular responses to changes in serum and nutrient concentrations were determined by measuring proliferation and metabolic activity. Autophagic flux in AF cells was longitudinally monitored using imaging cytometry and Western blotting for LC3, HMGB1, and p62/SQSTM1. Apoptosis (TUNEL staining and cleaved caspase-3 immunodetection) and cellular senescence (senescence-associated β-galactosidase assay and p16/INK4A immunodetection) were measured. RESULTS: Markers of apoptosis and senescence increased, while cell proliferation and metabolic activity decreased under the withdrawal of serum and of nutrients other than oxygen, confirming cellular stress. Time-dependent increases in autophagy markers, including LC3 puncta number per cell, LC3-II expression, and cytoplasmic HMGB1, were observed under conditions of reduced nutrition, while an autophagy substrate, p62/SQSTM1, decreased over time. Collectively, these findings suggest increased autophagic flux in disc AF cells under serum and nutrient deprivation. CONCLUSION: Disc AF cells exhibit distinct responses to serum and nutrient deprivation. Cellular responses include cell death and quiescence in addition to reduced proliferation and metabolic activity, as well as activation of autophagy under conditions of nutritional stress.

- Introduction: Approximately 3% of osteoporotic vertebral fractures develop osteoporotic vertebral collapse (OVC) with neurological deficits, and such patients are recommended to be treated surgically. However, a proximal junctional fracture (PJFr) following surgery for OVC can be a serious concern. Therefore, the aim of this study is to identify the incidence and risk factors of PJFr following fusion surgery for OVC. Methods: This study retrospectively analyzed registry data collected from facilities belonging to the Japan Association of Spine Surgeons with Ambition (JASA) in 2016. We retrospectively analyzed 403 patients who suffered neurological deficits due to OVC below T10 and underwent corrective surgery; only those followed up for ≥2 years were included. Potential risk factors related to the PJFr and their cut-off values were calculated using multivariate logistic regression analysis and receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis. Results: Sixty-three patients (15.6%) suffered PJFr during the follow-up (mean 45.7 months). In multivariate analysis, the grade of osteoporosis (grade 2, 3: adjusted odds ratio (aOR) 2.92; p=0.001) and lower instrumented vertebra (LIV) level (sacrum: aOR 6.75; p=0.003) were independent factors. ROC analysis demonstrated that lumbar bone mineral density (BMD) was a predictive factor (area under curve: 0.72, p=0.035) with optimal cut-off value of 0.61 g/cm2 (sensitivity, 76.5%; specificity, 58.3%), but that of the hip was not (p=0.228). Conclusions: PJFr was found in 16% cases within 4 years after surgery; independent risk factors were severe osteoporosis and extended fusion to the sacrum. The lumbar BMD with cut-off value 0.61 g/cm2 may potentially predict PJFr. Our findings can help surgeons select perioperative adjuvant therapy, as well as a surgical strategy to prevent PJFr following surgery.2019年04月, Spine surgery and related research, 3(2) (2), 171 - 177, 英語, 国内誌[査読有り]研究論文(学術雑誌)

- BACKGROUND: To date, there have been little published data on surgical outcomes for patients with PD with thoracolumbar OVF. We conducted a retrospective multicenter study of registry data to investigate the outcomes of fusion surgery for patients with Parkinson's disease (PD) with osteoporotic vertebral fracture (OVF) in the thoracolumbar junction. METHODS: Retrospectively registered data were collected from 27 universities and their affiliated hospitals in Japan. In total, 26 patients with PD (mean age, 76 years; 3 men and 23 women) with thoracolumbar OVF who underwent spinal fusion with a minimum of 2 years of follow-up were included (PD group). Surgical invasion, perioperative complications, radiographic sagittal alignment, mechanical failure (MF) related to instrumentation, and clinical outcomes were evaluated. A control group of 296 non-PD patients (non-PD group) matched for age, sex, distribution of surgical procedures, number of fused segments, and follow-up period were used for comparison. RESULTS: The PD group showed higher rates of perioperative complications (p < 0.01) and frequency of delirium than the non-PD group (p < 0.01). There were no significant differences in the degree of kyphosis correction, frequency of MF, visual analog scale of the symptoms, and improvement according to the Japanese Orthopaedic Association scoring system between the two groups. However, the PD group showed a higher proportion of non-ambulators and dependent ambulators with walkers at the final follow-up (p < 0.01). CONCLUSIONS: A similar surgical strategy can be applicable to patients with PD with OVF in the thoracolumbar junction. However, physicians should pay extra attention to intensive perioperative care to prevent various adverse events and implement a rehabilitation regimen to regain walking ability.2019年03月, BMC musculoskeletal disorders, 20(1) (1), 103 - 103, 英語, 国際誌[査読有り]研究論文(学術雑誌)
- Introduction: The prevalence of patients with osteoporosis continues to increase in aging societies, including Japan. The first choice for managing osteoporotic vertebral compression fracture (OVF) is conservative treatment. Failure in conservative treatment for OVF may lead to non-union or vertebral collapse, resulting in neurological deficit and subsequently requiring surgical intervention. This multicenter nationwide study in Japan was conducted to comprehensively understand the outcomes of surgical treatments for OVF non-union. Methods: This multicenter, retrospective study included 403 patients (89 males, 314 females, mean age 73.8 ± 7.8 years, mean follow-up 3.9 ± 1.7 years) with neurological deficit due to vertebral collapse or non-union after OVF at T10-L5 who underwent fusion surgery with a minimum 1-year follow-up. Radiological and clinical outcomes at baseline and at the final follow-up (FU) were evaluated. Results: OVF was present at a thoracolumbar junction such as T12 (124 patients) and L1 (117 patients). A majority of OVF occurred after a minor trauma, such as falling down (55.3%) or lifting objects (8.4%). Short segment fusion, including affected vertebra, was conducted (mean 4.0 ± 2.0 vertebrae) with 256.8 minutes of surgery and 676.1 g of blood loss. A posterior approach was employed in 86.6% of the patients, followed by a combined anterior and posterior (8.7%), and an anterior (4.7%) approach. Perioperative complications and implant failures were observed in 18.1% and 41.2%, respectively. VAS scores of low back pain (74.7 to 30.8 mm) and leg pain (56.8 to 20.7 mm) improved significantly at FU. Preoperatively, 52.6% of the patients were unable to walk and the rate of non-ambulatory patients decreased to 7.5% at FU. Conclusions: This study demonstrated that substantial improvement in activity of daily living (ADL) was achieved by fusion surgery. Although there was a considerable rate of complications, fusion surgery is beneficial for elderly OVF patients with non-union.2019年, Spine surgery and related research, 3(4) (4), 361 - 367, 英語, 国内誌[査読有り]研究論文(学術雑誌)
- On the basis of rapid population aging, in 2007, the Japanese Orthopaedic Association (JOA) proposed a new disease concept "locomotive syndrome" as a degenerative condition of reduced mobility due to the impairment of the musculoskeletal system. Worsened locomotive components, which consist of bones, joints, and intervertebral discs, and muscles and nerves, can lead to symptoms such as pain, limited range of motion, malalignment, impaired balance, and difficulty in walking, ultimately resulting in the requirement of nursing care. "Locomotive syndrome" has gained increased interest in Japan but still not worldwide. Hence, in this brief review, we summarize an updated definition, assessment, and management of "locomotive syndrome". The JOA recommends "locomotion training" exercise intervention to be effective in maintaining motor function that comprises two simple exercises-squatting and single-leg standing. However, the extent to which exercises affect "locomotive syndrome" is unknown. Here, we further report hypothesis-generating patient cases who presented the improved sagittal spinopelvic alignment in standing radiographs and postural stability in piezoelectric force-plate measurements through our 6-month "locomotion training" outpatient rehabilitation program. It is noteworthy that "locomotion training" facilitated these improvements despite the presence of specific disorders including thoracic kyphosis and symptomatic lumbar spinal canal stenosis. This raises the need for further investigations to clarify effects of "locomotion training" exercises on the spinal alignment, global balance, and quality of life in patients with "locomotive syndrome".2019年, Advances in orthopedics, 2019, 6496901 - 6496901, 英語, 国際誌[査読有り]研究論文(学術雑誌)

- STUDY DESIGN: A prospective cohort study of performance status (PS) and activities of daily living (ADL) in patients with spinal metastasis. OBJECTIVE: To identify the effect of spinal surgery on PS and ADL in patients with spinal metastasis. SUMMARY OF BACKGROUND DATA: Spinal metastasis causes severe neurological deficits, resulting in drastic loss of patients' PS and ADL. However, the effect of spine surgery on PS and ADL is not well known. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Seventy patients with spinal metastasis were enrolled in this study. Forty-six patients desired and underwent spine surgery ("surgery" group) and 24 patients did not desire surgery ("nonsurgery" group). Both groups received optimal treatments, including radiation, chemotherapy, and palliative care services. Evaluation was performed at 1, 3, and 6 months after study enrollment using the Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group PS, the Barthel index (BI) for ADL, and Frankel classification for neurological status. RESULTS: There was no significant difference in baseline PS, the BI, or Frankel classification between the groups. The surgery group showed significant improvement in PS, maintaining grade 2 or less throughout the duration of the study, as well as in ADL, exceeding 70 points of the BI, compared with the nonsurgery group (P<0.05). Significantly improved neurological condition was also observed in the surgery group over the following 6 months. More than 95% of patients who underwent surgery improved their PS, the BI, and neurological status. Furthermore, >80% of these patients maintained improvement in PS, the BI, and neurological status for at least 6 months. In contrast, PS, the BI, and neurological status of patients in the "nonsurgery" group deteriorated throughout the study period. CONCLUSIONS: Spine surgery improves PS, ADL, and neurological status in patients with spinal metastasis for a minimum 6 months. This indicates that these patients can acquire an independent daily life.2017年10月, Clinical spine surgery, 30(8) (8), E1026-E1032, 英語, 国際誌[査読有り]研究論文(学術雑誌)

- Mice expressing reduced levels of ERCC1-XPF (Ercc1-/Δ mice) demonstrate premature onset of age-related changes due to decreased repair of DNA damage. Muscle-derived stem/progenitor cells (MDSPCs) isolated from Ercc1-/Δ mice have an impaired capacity for cell differentiation. The mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) is a critical regulator of cell growth in response to nutrient, hormone, and oxygen levels. Inhibition of the mTOR pathway extends the lifespan of several species. Here, we examined the role of mTOR in regulating the MDSPC dysfunction that occurs with accelerated aging. We show that mTOR signaling pathways are activated in Ercc1-/Δ MDSPCs compared with wild-type (WT) MDSPCs. Additionally, inhibiting mTOR with rapamycin promoted autophagy and improved the myogenic differentiation capacity of the Ercc1-/Δ MDSPCs. The percent of apoptotic and senescent cells in Ercc1-/Δ MDSPC cultures was decreased upon mTOR inhibition. These results establish that mTOR signaling contributes to stem cell dysfunction and cell fate decisions in response to endogenous DNA damage. Therefore, mTOR represents a potential therapeutic target for improving defective, aged stem cells. © 2016 The Authors.

- The authors present a case of 45-year-old man with neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF-1) and thoracic scoliosis, previously undergoing fusion surgery, who developed myelopathy. This patient further complained of lightning pain when he extended and horizontally abducted the convex-side shoulder. Radiological examination revealed the progression of dystrophic scoliosis with opened spinal canals and the presence of a neurofibroma behind the spinal cord at the apical levels. Delayed development of spinal instability can occur due to dystrophy even postoperatively in patients with NF-1. After tumor resection, he had rapid recovery from myelopathy and no recurrence of radiating pain despite shoulder movement. These findings provide a speculation that high, intense amplitude movement of the shoulder toward the spinal canal causes the impingement on the neurofibroma, resulting in indirect compression of the exposed spinal cord. This is the first report describing thoracic compression myelopathy associated with paraspinal displacement of the scapula.2017年01月, Journal of orthopaedic surgery (Hong Kong), 25(1) (1), 2309499016684726 - 2309499016684726, 英語, 国際誌[査読有り]研究論文(学術雑誌)
- Expression of adiponectin receptors in human and rat intervertebral disc cells and changes in receptor expression during disc degeneration using a rat tail temporary static compression model.BACKGROUND: Adipose tissue is a large endocrine organ known to secret adiponectin, which has anti-diabetic, anti-atherogenic, and anti-inflammatory properties. Adiponectin is widely involved in systemic disease, diabetes mellitus, and cardiac infraction. This study aimed to investigate the involvement of adiponectin in intervertebral disc (IVD) degeneration. METHODS: Adipose and IVD tissues were obtained from human patients undergoing surgery (n = 4) and from skeletally mature Sprague-Dawley rats (n = 21). Tissues were stained immunohistochemically for adiponectin and adiponectin receptors AdipoR1 and AdipoR2. Changes in adiponectin receptor expression with IVD degeneration severity were then investigated using a rat tail temporary compression model. Rat IVD tissues were stained immunohistochemically with AdipoR1 or AdipoR2, and immunopositive cell percentages were calculated. Rat nucleus pulposus (NP) and annulus fibrosus (AF) tissues were isolated separately and treated with recombinant adiponectin (Ad 0.1 or 1.0 μg/ml) and/or interleukin-1 beta (IL-1β) (0.2 μg/ml) for 24 h. The four groups were as follows: control group (no treatment), IL-1β group (IL-1β-only treatment), IL-1β+Ad (0.1) group (IL-1β and adiponectin [0.1 μg/ml] treatment), and IL-1β+Ad (1.0) group (IL-1β and adiponectin [1.0 μg/ml]). Real-time reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction was performed to evaluate messenger-RNA (mRNA) expression of tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) and interleukin-6 (IL-6). RESULTS: Adiponectin was widely expressed in human subcutaneous and epidural adipose tissue. In rat IVD tissue, adiponectin was not observed in NP and AF. However, both AdipoR1 and AdipoR2 were widely expressed in both human and rat IVD tissues, with no significant differences in expression levels between receptors. Furthermore, expression levels of AdipoR1 and AdipoR2 were gradually decreased with increased IVD degeneration severity. Interestingly, mRNA expression levels of TNF-α and IL-6 were significantly upregulated by IL-1β stimulation. TNF-α expression in the IL-1β+Ad 1.0 group was significantly lower than that in the IL-1β group in both NP and AF cells (P < 0.05). Finally, IL-6 expression was not affected by adiponectin treatment in IVD cells. CONCLUSIONS: This study investigated for the first time the expression of adiponectin receptors in human and rat IVD cells. The findings indicate that adiponectin produced by the systemic or epidural adipose tissue may be involved in the pathomechanism of IVD degeneration.2016年11月, Journal of orthopaedic surgery and research, 11(1) (1), 147 - 147, 英語, 国際誌[査読有り]研究論文(学術雑誌)

- PURPOSE: Post-operative surgical site infection (SSI) is one of the most significant complications after instrumented spinal surgery. However, implant retention feasibility for early-onset multidrug-resistant SSI is still controversial. We aimed to verify our therapeutic strategy, surgical debridement with implant retention and long-term antimicrobial therapy for post-operative early-onset multidrug-resistant SSI. METHODS: We retrospectively analyzed the clinical course of 11 cases [eight men and three women, with a mean age of 70.4 (54-82) years] with early-onset multidrug-resistant SSI out of 409 consecutive cases of spinal instrumentation surgery performed between 2007 and 2013 at our institution. RESULTS: The median duration of follow-up was 868 (178-1,922) days. All SSIs were controlled, without recurrence during follow-up. The microbial pathogens were methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (seven cases), multidrug-resistant Corynebacterium (two cases), methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus epidermidis (one case), and methicillin-resistant coagulase-negative Staphylococcus aureus (one case). The mean duration from SSI diagnosis to surgery was 2.9 (1-6) days. Ten patients underwent surgical debridement with implant retention. No patients required multiple operations. All patients were given antimicrobial treatments. Mean duration of intravenous antimicrobials (vancomycin, vancomycin+ piperacillin/tazobactam, or gentamicin) was 66.5 (12-352) days and 336 (89-1,673) days for oral antimicrobials (rifampicin + sulfamethoxazole/trimethoprim, sulfamethoxazole/trimethoprim, or minomycin). The mean duration of clinical signs and symptom recovery was 31.0 (7-73) days, and the mean time for normalization of C-reactive protein was 54.5 (7-105) days. CONCLUSIONS: Early-onset multidrug-resistant SSI was successfully treated by surgical debridement with implant retention and long-term antimicrobial therapy.2016年06月, International orthopaedics, 40(6) (6), 1171 - 7, 英語, 国際誌[査読有り]研究論文(学術雑誌)

- INTRODUCTION: Nutrient deprivation is a likely contributor to intervertebral disc (IVD) degeneration. Silent mating type information regulator 2 homolog 1 (SIRT1) protects cells against limited nutrition by modulation of apoptosis and autophagy. However, little evidence exists regarding the extent to which SIRT1 affects IVD cells. Therefore, we conducted an in vitro study using human IVD nucleus pulposus (NP) cells. METHODS: Thirty-two IVD specimens were obtained from patients who underwent surgical intervention and were categorized based on Pfirrmann IVD degeneration grades. Cells were isolated from the NP and cultured in the presence of recombinant human SIRT1 (rhSIRT1) under different serum conditions, including 10 % (v/v) fetal bovine serum (FBS) as normal nutrition (N) and 1 % (v/v) FBS as low nutrition (LN). 3-Methyladenine (3-MA) was used to inhibit autophagy. Autophagic activity was assessed by measuring the absorbance of monodansylcadaverine and immunostaining and Western blotting for light chain 3 and p62/SQSTM1. Apoptosis and pathway analyses were performed by flow cytometry and Western blotting. RESULTS: Cells cultured under LN conditions decreased in number and exhibited enhanced autophagy compared with the N condition. Medium supplementation with rhSIRT1 inhibited this decrease in cell number and induced an additional increase in autophagic activity (P < 0.05), whereas the combined use of rhSIRT1 and 3-MA resulted in drastic decreases in cell number and autophagy (P < 0.05). The incidence of apoptotic cell death increased under the LN condition, which was decreased by rhSIRT1 (P < 0.05) but increased further by a combination of rhSIRT1 and 3-MA (P < 0.05). Under LN conditions, NP cells showed a decrease in antiapoptotic Bcl-2 and an increase in proapoptotic Bax, cleaved caspase 3, and cleaved caspase 9, indicating apoptosis induction via the mitochondrial pathway. These changes were suppressed by rhSIRT1 but elevated further by rhSIRT1 with 3-MA, suggesting an effect of rhSIRT1-induced autophagy on apoptosis inhibition. Furthermore, the observed autophagy and apoptosis were more remarkable in cells from IVDs of Pfirrmann grade IV than in those from IVDs of Pfirrmann grade II. CONCLUSIONS: SIRT1 protects against nutrient deprivation-induced mitochondrial apoptosis through autophagy induction in human IVD NP cells, suggesting that rhSIRT1 may be a potent treatment agent for human degenerative IVD disease.2015年09月, Arthritis research & therapy, 17(1) (1), 253 - 253, 英語, 国際誌[査読有り]研究論文(学術雑誌)

- Mechanical loading is a salient factor in the progression of spinal disorders that contribute to back pain. Biological responses to loading modes like flexion/extension (F/E) in relevant spinal tissues remain unstudied. A novel, multi-axial experimental system was developed to subject viable functional spinal units (FSUs) to complex, in-situ loading. The objective was to determine biological effects of F/E in multiple spinal tissues-annulus fibrosus, nucleus pulposus, facet cartilage, and ligamentum flavum. Rabbit lumbar FSUs were mounted in a bioreactor within a robotic testing system. FSUs underwent small (0.17/0.05 Nm) and large (0.5/0.15 Nm) range-of-motion F/E for 1 or 2 h of cycling. Outcomes in each tissue, compared to unloaded FSUs, included (i) relative mRNA expression of catabolic (MMP-1, 3 and ADAMTS-5), pro-inflammatory (COX-2), and anabolic (ACAN) genes and (ii) immunoblotting of aggrecan degradation. Total energy applied to FSUs increased in groups subject to large range-of-motion and 2-h cycling, and moment relaxation was higher with large range-of-motion. F/E significantly modulated MMP1,-3 and COX-2 in facet cartilage and MMP-3 and ACAN in annulus fibrosus. Large range-of-motion loading increased MMP-mediated aggrecan fragmentation in annulus fibrosus. Biological responses to complex loading ex vivo showed variation among spinal tissues that reflect tissue structure and mechanical loading in F/E.2015年08月, Journal of orthopaedic research : official publication of the Orthopaedic Research Society, 33(8) (8), 1255 - 64, 英語, 国際誌[査読有り]研究論文(学術雑誌)

- BACKGROUND CONTEXT: Intervertebral disc (IVD) degeneration, a major cause of low back pain, is considered to be induced by daily mechanical loading. Mechanical stress is widely known to affect cell survival and extracellular matrix metabolism in many cell types. Although the involvement of integrin α5β1 transmembrane mechanoreceptor in IVD degeneration has been reported, the precise function of integrin α5β1 remains obscure. PURPOSE: To reflect IVD tissue response to mechanical stress using a dynamic loading organ culture system and elucidate the functional impact of integrin α5β1 on the pathomechanism of IVD degeneration. STUDY DESIGN: An ex vivo study using a dynamic loading organ culture system. METHODS: Ninety-six rat IVD explants were examined. Intervertebral discs were subjected to 1.3 MPa, 1.0 Hz dynamic compressive load in the presence or absence of an Arg-Gly-Asp (RGD) peptide with affinity to the fibronectin binding-site of integrin α5β1. Cell viability and histomorphology were assessed. The localization of integrin α5β1 in the IVD was assessed by immunohistochemistry. Gene expression levels of IVD cells were evaluated using real-time reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction. RESULTS: In the nucleus pulposus (NP), cell density and viability were reduced by dynamic compressive load. Histologic degenerative alterations, mainly seen in the NP, were the morphologic changes of NP cells. In both NP and annulus fibrosus (AF), immunohistochemistry revealed localization of integrin α5β1 and that the messenger-RNA expression of integrin α5β1 was increased by dynamic load. Dynamic load induced a catabolic effect, the stimulation of matrix metalloproteinase-3 and -13 gene expressions by NP and AF cells. The RGD peptide partially blocked the histologic alterations and the catabolic effect. CONCLUSIONS: The dynamic loading organ culture system simulated cellular responses to mechanical loading of the IVD. Our results suggest that IVD cells recognize the mechanical stress through RGD integrins, particularly the α5β1 subtype that is highly expressed in NP and AF cells. Further experiments using this system will provide information about pathomechanisms of IVD degeneration through the mechanotransduction pathways.2015年03月, Spine J, 15(3) (3), 417 - 26, 英語, 国際誌[査読有り]研究論文(学術雑誌)

- DNA damage is a cause of age related pathologies, including osteoarthritis (OA). Excision repair cross complementation group 1 (ERCC1) is an endonuclease required for DNA damage repair. In this study we investigated the function of ERCC1 in chondrocytes and its association with the pathophysiology of OA. ERCC1 expression in normal and osteoarthritic cartilage was assessed, as were changes in ERCC1 expression in chondrocytes under catabolic stress. Inhibiting ERCC1 in chondrocytes under interleukin-1β stimulation using small interfering RNA (siRNA) was also evaluated. Finally, cellular senescence and apoptosis were examined in relation to ERCC1 function. ERCC1 expression was decreased in OA cartilage and increased within 4 h of exposure to interleukin (IL)-1β, but decreased after 12 h. The inhibition of ERCC1 by siRNA increased the expression of matrix metallopeptidase 13 and decreased collagen type II. ERCC1 inhibition also increased the number of apoptotic and senescent cells. The inhibition of ERCC1 in chondrocytes increased their expression of OA related proteins, apoptosis, cellular senescence, and hypertrophic-like changes which suggest that ERCC1 is critical for protecting human chondrocytes (HCs) from catabolic stresses and provides insights into the pathophysiology of OA and a potential target for its treatment.

- The intervertebral disc nucleus pulposus (NP) has two phenotypically distinct cell types-notochordal cells (NCs) and non-notochordal chondrocyte-like cells. In human discs, NCs are lost during adolescence, which is also when discs begin to show degenerative signs. However, little evidence exists regarding the link between NC disappearance and the pathogenesis of disc degeneration. To clarify this, a rat tail disc degeneration model induced by static compression at 1.3 MPa for 0, 1, or 7 days was designed and assessed for up to 56 postoperative days. Radiography, MRI, and histomorphology showed degenerative disc findings in response to the compression period. Immunofluorescence displayed that the number of DAPI-positive NP cells decreased with compression; particularly, the decrease was notable in larger, vacuolated, cytokeratin-8- and galectin-3-co-positive cells, identified as NCs. The proportion of TUNEL-positive cells, which predominantly comprised non-NCs, increased with compression. Quantitative PCR demonstrated isolated mRNA up-regulation of ADAMTS-5 in the 1-day loaded group and MMP-3 in the 7-day loaded group. Aggrecan-1 and collagen type 2α-1 mRNA levels were down-regulated in both groups. This rat tail temporary static compression model, which exhibits decreased NC phenotype, increased apoptotic cell death, and imbalanced catabolic and anabolic gene expression, reproduces different stages of intervertebral disc degeneration.2014年03月, Journal of orthopaedic research : official publication of the Orthopaedic Research Society, 32(3) (3), 455 - 63, 英語, 国際誌[査読有り]研究論文(学術雑誌)
- OBJECTIVE: To test whether the interaction between annulus fibrosus cells (AFCs) and endothelial cells (ECs) disrupts matrix homeostasis and stimulates production of innervation mediators. METHODS: Human microvascular ECs were cultured in the conditioned media of AF cell culture derived from degenerated human surgical specimen. Matrix-metalloproteinases (MMPs) and platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) of ECs of this culture were analyzed by qRT-PCR, Western, and immunofluorescence. Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), Interleukin-8 (IL-8), and nerve growth factor (NGF) in the media of this cell culture were assayed by ELISA. To determine the effects of ECs on AFCs, qRT-PCR was performed to determine mRNA levels of collagen I, II and aggrecan in AFCs cultured in EC conditioned media. RESULTS: Compared to ECs cultured in naïve media, ECs exposed to AFC conditioned media expressed higher mRNA and protein levels of key biomarkers of invasive EC phenotype, MMP-2 (2×), MMP-13 (4×), and PDGF-B (1.5-2×), and NGF (24.9 ± 15.2 pg/mL vs 0 in naïve media). Treatment of AF cells with EC culture conditioned media decreased collagen type II expression two fold. Considerable quantities of pro-angiogenic factors IL-8 (396.7 ± 302.0 pg/mL) and VEGF (756.2 ± 375.9 pg/mL) were also detected in the conditioned media of untreated AF cell culture. DISCUSSION: AFCs from degenerated discs secreted factors which stimulated EC production of factors known to induce matrix degradation, angiogenesis, and innervation. IL-8 and VEGF maybe the secreted factors from AFCs which mediate a pro-angiogenic stimulus often implicated in the development of disc degeneration.2014年02月, Osteoarthritis and cartilage, 22(2) (2), 344 - 54, 英語, 国際誌[査読有り]研究論文(学術雑誌)
- INTRODUCTION: The intervertebral disc has a complex structure originating developmentally from both the mesenchyme and notochord. Notochordal cells disappear during adolescence, which is also when human discs begin to show degenerative signs. During degeneration later in life, disc cells decline because of apoptosis. Although many animal models have been developed to simulate human disc degeneration, few studies have explored the long-term changes in cell population and phenotype. Our objective was to elucidate the time-dependent notochordal cell disappearance and apoptotic cell death in a rat tail static compression-induced disc degeneration model. METHODS: Twenty-four 12-week-old male Sprague-Dawley rat tails were instrumented with an Ilizarov-type device and loaded statically at 1.3 MPa for up to 56 days. Loaded and distal-unloaded discs were harvested. Changes in cell number and phenotype were assessed with histomorphology and immunofluorescence. Apoptosis involvement was determined with terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase dUTP nick-end labeling (TUNEL) staining and immunohistochemistry. RESULTS: The number of disc nucleus pulposus and annulus fibrosus cells decreased with the loading period; particularly, the decrease was notable at day 7 in larger, vacuolated, cytokeratin-8- and galectin-3-co-positive cells, indicating notochordal origin. Subsequently, the proportion of cells positive for TUNEL and cleaved caspase-3, markers of apoptosis induction, increased from day 7 through day 56. Although the percentage of cells immunopositive for cleaved caspase-8, a marker of apoptosis initiation through the death-receptor pathway, increased only at day 7, the percentage of cells immunopositive for cleaved caspase-9 and p53-regulated apoptosis-inducing protein 1 (p53AIP1), markers of apoptosis initiation through the p53-mediated mitochondrial pathway, increased from day 7 through day 56. The percentage of cells immunopositive for B-cell lymphoma 2 (Bcl-2) and silent mating type information regulation 2 homolog 1 (SIRT1), antiapoptotic proteins, decreased consistently with compression. CONCLUSIONS: This rat tail model mimics notochordal cell disappearance and apoptotic cell death in human disc aging and degeneration. Sustained static compression induces transient activation of apoptosis through the death-receptor pathway and persistent activation of apoptosis through the p53-mediated mitochondrial pathway in disc cells. The increased proapoptotic and decreased antiapoptotic proteins observed at all time points signify static compression-induced disc cell death and degeneration.2014年01月, Arthritis research & therapy, 16(1) (1), R31, 英語, 国際誌[査読有り]研究論文(学術雑誌)
- OBJECTIVE: To clarify the incidence and predictive risk factors of cervical spine instabilities which may induce compression myelopathy in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA). METHODS: Three types of cervical spine instability were radiographically categorized into "moderate" and "severe" based on atlantoaxial subluxation (AAS: atlantodental interval >3 mm versus ≥10 mm), vertical subluxation (VS: Ranawat value <13 mm versus ≤10 mm), and subaxial subluxation (SAS: irreducible translation ≥2 mm versus ≥4 mm or at multiple). 228 "definite" or "classical" RA patients (140 without instability and 88 with "moderate" instability) were prospectively followed for >5 years. The endpoint incidence of "severe" instabilities and predictors for "severe" instability were determined. RESULTS: Patients with baseline "moderate" instability, including all sub-groups (AAS(+) [VS(-) SAS(-)], VS(+) [SAS(-) AAS(±)], and SAS(+) [AAS(±) VS(±)]), developed "severe" instabilities more frequently (33.3% with AAS(+), 75.0% with VS(+), and 42.9% with SAS(+)) than those initially without instability (12.9%; p<0.003, p<0.003, and p = 0.061, respectively). The incidence of cervical canal stenosis and/or basilar invagination was also higher in patients with initial instability (17.5% with AAS(+), 37.5% with VS(+), and 14.3% with SAS(+)) than in those without instability (7.1%; p = 0.028, p<0.003, and p = 0.427, respectively). Multivariable logistic regression analysis identified corticosteroid administration, Steinbrocker stage III or IV at baseline, mutilating changes at baseline, and the development of mutilans during the follow-up period correlated with the progression to "severe" instability (p<0.05). CONCLUSIONS: This prospective cohort study demonstrates accelerated development of cervical spine involvement in RA patients with pre-existing instability--especially VS. Advanced peripheral erosiveness and concomitant corticosteroid treatment are indicators for poor prognosis of the cervical spine in RA.2014年, PloS one, 9(2) (2), e88970, 英語, 国際誌[査読有り]研究論文(学術雑誌)
- STUDY DESIGN: A laboratory investigation using porcine model. OBJECTIVE: To clarify the effectiveness of the soft coagulation system for stopping bleeding from the epidural vein using different outputs and the safety in terms of tissue damage including spinal cord injury. SUMMARY OF BACKGROUND DATA: Problems associated with coagulation using an electrosurgical device, such as carbonization of tissue or adhesion to the electrode, have been highlighted. So called "soft coagulation" has been developed to solve these problems. Its' utility as well as the safety of the neural structure in spine surgery has never been reported. METHODS: A total of 3 animals and 45 spinal segments were used. Total laminectomy was performed to expose the dural tube and epidural venous plexus. Stable bleeding was induced by a 22 G needle puncture. Soft coagulation monopolar output (SCM), soft coagulation bipolar output (SCB), and conventional bipolar output (CB) were used as the coagulators. Valid hemostasis was defined as macroscopically complete bleeding stoppage by coagulation within 3 minutes. The neurological assessment was evaluated by somatosensory evoked potential. Histologic analysis was performed to determine the area of thermal damage. RESULTS: Valid hemostasis ratio was 75.0% of SCM group, 68.8% of SCB group, and 30.8% of CB group. Somatosensory evoked potential monitoring revealed that spinal cord injury was observed in 4 lesions (25%) of the SCM group. Neither bipolar groups (SCB and CB) showed any changes in waveform pattern. Histologic analysis revealed that severe thermal damages were observed in the epidural space of the SCM group. CONCLUSIONS: The usefulness of soft coagulation is revealed in terms of bleeding stoppage from epidural vessels and reduced soft-tissue damage compared with the conventional electric device. However, assessing the potential risk of severe neural tissue damage including spinal cord injury, a bipolar soft coagulation is strongly recommended for use in spine surgery.2013年10月, Journal of spinal disorders & techniques, 26(7) (7), E281-5 - 5, 英語, 国際誌[査読有り]研究論文(学術雑誌)
- PURPOSE: A retro-odontoid pseudotumor is usually a reactive fibrocartilaginous mass associated with atlantoaxial subluxation (AAS). However, a retro-odontoid pseudotumor not associated with AAS, which undergoes spontaneous regression following C1 laminoplasty, has been reported. The purpose of this study was to report surgical outcomes of C1 laminectomy for retro-odontoid pseudotumor without AAS. MATERIALS AND METHODS: The cases of seven patients (mean age 75.6 ± 7.6 years-old) with retro-odontoid pseudotumor without AAS were reviewed. The mean follow up time was 52.3 ± 25.5 months. Each patient underwent a C1 laminectomy with an additional C3-6 expansion laminoplasty in three patients. The Japanese Orthopaedic Association score (JOA score) was used for neurological assessment. Pseudotumor size and additional AAS were analyzed using MRI and radiography. RESULTS: All patients exhibited neurological improvement following surgery, the JOA score improved from 7.2 ± 3.2 to 14.1 ± 2.6. The mean O-C2 and C2-7 angle decreased from -3.2 ± 2.1° to -3.9 ± 1.7°, showing a slight kyphotic change. Postoperative AAS was not observed. All pseudotumors spontaneously resolved, and recurrence and regrowth were not observed. Five patients had MRIs after gadolinium administration; four patients who showed enhancement of the pseudotumor had almost complete reduction within 1 year following surgery. DISCUSSION: Our study, assessing the outcome of C1 laminectomy for retro-odontoid pseudotumor, found neurological improvement in all cases. Since all pseudotumors were reduced and additional AAS was not observed, C1 laminectomy for retro-odontoid pseudotumor, in the absence of AAS, is recommended as a therapeutic strategy.2013年05月, European spine journal : official publication of the European Spine Society, the European Spinal Deformity Society, and the European Section of the Cervical Spine Research Society, 22(5) (5), 1119 - 26, 英語, 国際誌[査読有り]研究論文(学術雑誌)
- It is suggested that pro-inflammatory cytokines, which are produced by interaction of the intervertebral nucleus pulposus cells and macrophages, may be linked to the cause of pain of the intervertebral disc herniation. This study carries out the in vitro experiments to examine the mechanism, with the use of the co-culture of an immortalized cell line of nucleus pulposus of the human intervertebral disc and the macrophage cell line. As a result, it is found that the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines is significantly larger at the co-culture group than at the independent culture group. Also, at the co-culture group of macrophages and intervertebral nucleus pulposus cells with over-expression of fas ligand (FasL), the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines is found to be far larger. Furthermore, it is found that these pro-inflammatory cytokines are produced mainly by the intervertebral nucleus pulposus cells with over-expression of FasL, and that the expression of a disintegrin and metalloproteinase (ADAM) 10, which controls the expression of FasL and activates reverse signaling inside cells, also increases. From these findings, it is suggested that FasL and ADAM10 play an important role in the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines coming from interaction of the intervertebral nucleus pulposus cells and macrophages.2013年04月, Journal of orthopaedic research : official publication of the Orthopaedic Research Society, 31(4) (4), 608 - 15, 英語, 国際誌[査読有り]研究論文(学術雑誌)

- BACKGROUND CONTEXT: Destruction of extracellular matrix (ECM) leads to intervertebral disc degeneration (IDD), which underlies many spine-related disorders. Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs), and disintegrins and metalloproteinases with thrombospondin motifs (ADAMTSs) are believed to be the major proteolytic enzymes responsible for ECM degradation in the intervertebral disc (IVD). PURPOSE: To summarize the current literature on gene expression and regulation of MMPs, ADAMTSs, and tissue inhibitors of metalloproteinases (TIMPs) in IVD aging and IDD. METHODS: A comprehensive literature review of gene expression of MMP, ADAMTS, and TIMP in human IDD and reported studies on regulatory factors controlling their expressions and activities in both human and animal model systems. RESULTS: Upregulation of specific MMPs (MMP-1, -2, -3, -7, -8, -10, and -13) and ADAMTS (ADAMTS-1, -4, and -15) were reported in human degenerated IVDs. However, it is still unclear from conflicting published studies whether the expression of ADAMTS-5, the predominant aggrecanase, is increased with IDD. Tissue inhibitors of metalloproteinase-3 is downregulated, whereas TIMP-1 is upregulated in human degenerated IVDs relative to nondegenerated IVDs. Numerous studies indicate that the expression levels of MMP and ADAMTS are modulated by a combination of many factors, including mechanical, inflammatory, and oxidative stress, some of which are mediated in part through the p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase pathway. Genetic predisposition also plays an important role in determining gene expression of MMP-1, -2, -3, and -9. CONCLUSIONS: Upregulation of MMP and ADAMTS expression and enzymatic activity is implicated in disc ECM destruction, leading to the development of IDD. Future IDD therapeutics depends on identifying specific MMPs and ADAMTSs whose dysregulation result in pathological proteolysis of disc ECM.2013年03月, The spine journal : official journal of the North American Spine Society, 13(3) (3), 331 - 41, 英語, 国際誌[査読有り]研究論文(学術雑誌)
- STUDY DESIGN: A prospective minimum 5-year follow-up study of the cervical spine in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) initially without cervical involvement. OBJECTIVE: To clarify the incidence and aggravation of cervical spine instabilities and their predictive risk factors in patients with RA. SUMMARY OF BACKGROUND DATA: Many reports have shown the progression of cervical spine involvement in RA. However, few articles have described comprehensive evaluation of its prognostic factors. METHODS: A total of 140 patients with "definite" or "classical" RA initially without cervical involvement were prospectively followed for more than 5 years. Radiographical cervical findings were classified into 3 instabilities: atlantoaxial subluxation (AAS: atlantodental interval >3 mm), vertical subluxation (VS: Ranawat value <13 mm), and subaxial subluxation (SAS: irreducible translation ≥ 2 mm). "Severe" extents were defined as AAS with atlantodental interval 10 mm or more, VS with Ranawat value 10 mm or less, and SAS with translation 4 mm or more or at multiple levels. Incidence of these developments and predictors for "severe" instabilities were investigated. RESULTS: During 6.0 ± 0.5 years, 43.6% of 140 patients developed cervical instabilities: AAS in 32.1%, VS in 11.4%, and SAS in 16.4% with some combinations. "Severe" instabilities were exhibited in 12.9% of patients: AAS in 3.6%, VS in 6.4%, and SAS in 5.0%. Furthermore, 4.3% presented canal stenosis, with 13 mm or less space available for the spinal cord (SAC) due to "severe" AAS or "severe" VS in 2.9% and 12 mm or less SAC due to "severe" SAS in 2.1%. Multivariable logistic regression analysis identified corticosteroid administration, mutilating changes at baseline, and the development of nonmutilating into mutilating changes during the follow-up period correlated with "severe" instabilities (P < 0.05). CONCLUSION: A minimum 5-year follow-up reveals the occurrence of cervical instabilities in 43.6%, "severe" aggravation in 12.9%, and decreased SAC in 4.3% of patients with RA. Characteristics of severe disease activity-established mutilating changes, progressive development into mutilating changes, and potentially concomitant corticosteroid treatment-are indicators for poor prognosis of the cervical spine in RA.2012年12月, Spine, 37(26) (26), 2136 - 44, 英語, 国際誌[査読有り]研究論文(学術雑誌)
- INTRODUCTION: Little is known about when and how progressive spondylolisthesis occurs. In this report segmental motion related to age and disc degeneration at L4/5 disc was investigated. MATERIALS AND METHODS: 637 patients with low back and/or leg pain underwent radiologic and MRI examinations simultaneously. Because 190 patients with conditions which might impede accurate measurement were excluded, 447 patients, comprising 268 men and 179 women, were included; age range, was 10-86 (mean: 53) years. Three radiologic parameters slip in neutral position (mm), sagittal translation (mm), and segmental angulation (degrees) were examined at the L4/5 segment. On T2-weighted MRI, severity of disc degeneration at L4/5 was classified by Pfirrmann's criteria, grade 1-5. RESULTS: Results showed stage of disc degeneration that progressed according to aging with significant differences except for between grades 4 and 5. Amount of anterior slip was small among grades 1 to 3; however, it greatly increased between grades 3 and 4 and between grades 4 and 5, suggesting that grade 3 disc degeneration has a potential risk of future progression of anterior slip. This finding may also suggest that once significant slip occurs, it will progress to the final grade. Furthermore, the grade 3 degeneration group exhibited large amounts of motion in both angulation and translation, suggesting it was the most unstable group. CONCLUSION: Our results with radiography and MRI indicate that grade 3 disc degeneration is a critical stage for the progression of lumbar spondylolisthesis at L4/5 segment.2012年11月, European spine journal : official publication of the European Spine Society, the European Spinal Deformity Society, and the European Section of the Cervical Spine Research Society, 21(11) (11), 2134 - 9, 英語, 国際誌[査読有り]研究論文(学術雑誌)
- OBJECTIVE: The expression of proinflammatory factors such as tumor necrosis factor α (TNFα), interleukin-6 (IL-6), IL-8, and prostaglandin E(2) (PGE(2) ) is significantly correlated with the symptoms of herniated disc disease. Among the different types of immune cells, macrophages are frequently noted in the herniated disc tissue. We undertook this study to clarify the interaction of the intervertebral disc (IVD) and macrophages with regard to the production of TNFα, IL-6, IL-8, and PGE(2) . METHODS: We developed 2 animal models to assess the interactions of IVDs with macrophages in terms of TNFα, IL-6, IL-8, and PGE(2) production and pain-related behavior. We also cocultured IVDs and macrophages to assess the role of TNFα in IL-6, IL-8, and PGE(2) production. RESULTS: IVD autografts induced TNFα, IL-6, IL-8, and cyclooxygenase 2 (COX-2) messenger RNA (mRNA) up-regulation; macrophage infiltration was seen shortly after the autograft was implanted. A significant decrease was noted in the mechanical threshold of the ipsilateral paw following the up-regulation of TNFα, IL-6, IL-8, and COX-2 mRNA. Only IVD and macrophage cocultures resulted in IL-8 and PGE(2) up-regulation. TNFα up-regulation was maximized before that of IL-6 and IL-8. TNFα neutralization attenuated production of IL-6 and PGE(2) , but not that of IL-8. Neutralization of TNFα and IL-8 significantly increased the paw withdrawal mechanical threshold in the IVD autograft and spinal nerve ligation model. CONCLUSION: IVD-macrophage interaction plays a major role in sciatica and in the production of TNFα, IL-6, IL-8, and PGE(2) . TNFα is required for IL-6 and PGE(2) production, but not for IL-8 production, during IVD-macrophage interaction. Neutralization of TNFα and IL-8 can be a valuable therapy for herniated disc disease.2012年08月, Arthritis and rheumatism, 64(8) (8), 2601 - 10, 英語, 国際誌[査読有り]研究論文(学術雑誌)
- PURPOSE: A procedure using an interspinous process spacer (IPS) was recently developed for the treatment of posture-dependent lumbar spinal-canal stenosis (LSS) patients. We developed a novel IPS which can be inserted with simpler procedures and removed percutaneously. The objectives of this study were: (1) to evaluate the feasibility and safety of this novel technique, and (2) to assess the effectiveness of this spacer in terms of preventing an increase of epidural pressure in lumbar extension using a porcine model. METHODS: Eight young pigs were used. Under general anesthesia and image guidance, the spacers were inserted. Three months after operation, MR images were taken and all spacers were removed. Blood samples were obtained before and 1, 3, 7 days after surgery. After killing the animals, the lumbar spines were observed macroscopically. Another six animals were used. Under general anesthesia and image guidance, a flexible pressure transducer was inserted into the epidural space and epidural pressure was measured in neutral and at maximum extension with and without spacer insertion. RESULTS: Percutaneous insertion and removal of the spacer was successful for all animals through small skin incisions. MR images showed minimal damage to the muscle. No significant up-regulation of Interleukin-6 (IL-6) and CRP was detected. Macroscopic observation of the lumbar spine 3 months after the operation revealed that the area of the interspinous process contacting with the inserted spacer showed some bone erosion/remodeling. Insertion of the spacer did not affect the epidural pressure in neutral but significantly prevented an increase of epidural pressure in lumber extension. CONCLUSIONS: This study demonstrated that the percutaneous insertion and removal of a novel IPS was feasible and safe using a simple technique. Furthermore, this procedure can be recognized as minimally invasive surgery from the viewpoint of skin incision, short insertion track, inflammatory mediators, and muscle damage. Improvements should be attempted in future studies using softer or more elastic materials for the spacer to lessen bone erosion/remodeling at contacting area of the inserted spacer.2012年06月, European spine journal : official publication of the European Spine Society, the European Spinal Deformity Society, and the European Section of the Cervical Spine Research Society, 21(6) (6), 1178 - 85, 英語, 国際誌[査読有り]研究論文(学術雑誌)

- INTRODUCTION: The longitudinal degradation mechanism of extracellular matrix (ECM) in the interbertebral disc remains unclear. Our objective was to elucidate catabolic and anabolic gene expression profiles and their balances in intervertebral disc degeneration using a static compression model. METHODS: Forty-eight 12-week-old male Sprague-Dawley rat tails were instrumented with an Ilizarov-type device with springs and loaded statically at 1.3 MPa for up to 56 days. Experimental loaded and distal-unloaded control discs were harvested and analyzed by real-time reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (PCR) messenger RNA quantification for catabolic genes [matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)-1a, MMP-2, MMP-3, MMP-7, MMP-9, MMP-13, a disintegrin and metalloproteinase with thrombospondin motifs (ADAMTS)-4, and ADAMTS-5], anti-catabolic genes [tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinases (TIMP)-1, TIMP-2, and TIMP-3], ECM genes [aggrecan-1, collagen type 1-α1, and collagen type 2-α1], and pro-inflammatory cytokine genes [tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α, interleukin (IL)-1α, IL-1β, and IL-6]. Immunohistochemistry for MMP-3, ADAMTS-4, ADAMTS-5, TIMP-1, TIMP-2, and TIMP-3 was performed to assess their protein expression level and distribution. The presence of MMP- and aggrecanase-cleaved aggrecan neoepitopes was similarly investigated to evaluate aggrecanolytic activity. RESULTS: Quantitative PCR demonstrated up-regulation of all MMPs and ADAMTS-4 but not ADAMTS-5. TIMP-1 and TIMP-2 were almost unchanged while TIMP-3 was down-regulated. Down-regulation of aggrecan-1 and collagen type 2-α1 and up-regulation of collagen type 1-α1 were observed. Despite TNF-α elevation, ILs developed little to no up-regulation. Immunohistochemistry showed, in the nucleus pulposus, the percentage of immunopositive cells of MMP-cleaved aggrecan neoepitope increased from 7 through 56 days with increased MMP-3 and decreased TIMP-1 and TIMP-2 immunopositivity. The percentage of immunopositive cells of aggrecanase-cleaved aggrecan neoepitope increased at 7 and 28 days only with decreased TIMP-3 immunopositivity. In the annulus fibrosus, MMP-cleaved aggrecan neoepitope presented much the same expression pattern. Aggrecanase-cleaved aggrecan neoepitope increased at 7 and 28 days only with increased ADAMTS-4 and ADAMTS-5 immunopositivity. CONCLUSIONS: This rat tail sustained static compression model mimics ECM metabolic imbalances of MMPs, aggrecanases, and TIMPs in human degenerative discs. A dominant imbalance of MMP-3/TIMP-1 and TIMP-2 relative to ADAMTS-4 and ADAMTS-5/TIMP-3 signifies an advanced stage of intervertebral disc degeneration.2012年03月, Arthritis research & therapy, 14(2) (2), R51, 英語, 国際誌[査読有り]研究論文(学術雑誌)

- House-keeping genes (HKGs) are generally used as endogenous controls for molecular normalization in quantitative PCR analysis. However, whether all the so-called HKGs are useful for intervertebral disc research is controversial. Our objective was, using a prevalidated rat tail static compression loading-induced disc degeneration model, to clarify the feasibility of common HKGs for gene-quantification in the nucleus pulposus cells. In real-time RT-PCR for five HKGs [β-actin, β-glucuronidase, β-2 microglobulin, glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH), and lactate dehydrogenase A (LDHA)], static compression at 1.3 MPa for up to 56 days demonstrated messenger RNA (mRNA) expression levels of consistent β-2 microglobulin and GAPDH, slightly up-regulated β-glucuronidase, and fairly down-regulated β-actin and LDHA. Especially, β-actin had a drastic suppression to 0.15-fold in the loaded relative to unloaded discs at 7 days. In immunofluorescence, β-actin showed a significant down-regulation to almost undetectable levels from 28 days, while GAPDH was constantly detected throughout. β-Actin mRNA and protein-distribution are thought to be affected by the loading treatment, however, GAPDH mRNA and protein-distribution can retain relatively stable expressions. Under prolonged static compression, β-actin and probably LDHA are inappropriate, and GAPDH is a feasible HKG as internal references in the disc cells.2011年08月, Journal of orthopaedic research : official publication of the Orthopaedic Research Society, 29(8) (8), 1284 - 90, 英語, 国際誌[査読有り]研究論文(学術雑誌)
- STUDY DESIGN: A 5-year prospective cohort study of cervical spine instabilities in rheumatoid arthritis (RA). OBJECTIVE.: To clarify the natural course of cervical instabilities in RA patients and to determine predictors for the prognosis of RA cervical spine. SUMMARY OF BACKGROUND DATA: Although several previous studies investigating the natural history of RA cervical spine have been reported, few of them have described radiological predictive factors for the aggravation of these instabilities. METHODS: Two hundred sixty-seven outpatients with "definite" or "classical" RA initially assigned were prospectively followed for over 5 years. Radiographic cervical findings were classified into three representative instabilities: atlantoaxial subluxation (AAS), vertical subluxation (VS), and subaxial subluxation (SAS). The aggravations of these instabilities were identified in the cases with a decrease of at least 2 mm in the Ranawat value of VS, an increase of at least 1 mm in translation of SAS, or a new development of respective instabilities. RA stages and mutilating changes were assessed in the hand radiograms. RESULTS: Fifty-two point four percent of 267 patients, without any cervical instability at the beginning of follow-up, decreased to 29.6% at the end (P < 0.01), whereas VS and SAS increased significantly (P < 0.01). The aggravation of VS was observed at statistically higher rates in patients with pre-existing instabilities as follows; 25.7% of AAS (P = 0.01), 49.1% of VS (P < 0.01), and 41.2% of SAS (P = 0.06). The aggravation of SAS was also detected in 47.2% of VS and 64.7% of SAS (P < 0.01). Patients with pre-existing mutilating changes exhibited the aggravations of VS and SAS in significantly higher incidences (P < 0.01). Furthermore, the cases with development into mutilating changes during the follow-up showed significantly higher tendencies for the aggravations of these instabilities (P < 0.01). CONCLUSION: The incidences of VS and SAS significantly increased during the minimum 5-year follow-up. Prognostic factors of these instabilities were revealed to be the initial radiological findings of VS, SAS, and mutilating changes.2011年04月, Spine, 36(8) (8), 647 - 53, 英語, 国際誌[査読有り]研究論文(学術雑誌)
- INTRODUCTION: Intervertebral disc tissue homeostasis is modulated by a variety of molecules. Silent mating type information regulator 2 homolog 1 (SIRT1) plays a key role in various physiological processes. The aim of the present study was to verify the expression of SIRT1 and determine SIRT1 function in human intervertebral disc cell homeostasis. METHODS: Human nucleus pulposus (NP) cells were obtained from 24 surgical patients (mean age: 39.4 years) and monolayer-cultured. SIRT1 expression was investigated using RT-PCR analysis and immunohistochemical staining. Quantitative real-time RT-PCR was performed to detect mRNA expression of SIRT1 and other genes: aggrecan, collagen type 2 and Sox9. The effect of SIRT1 on the extracellular matrix metabolism of NP cells was examined using recombinant human SIRT1 protein and a protein delivery reagent. Cell number and proliferation activity were measured following SIRT1 treatment. To reveal the deacetylation potential of transfected recombinant human SIRT1, western blotting for acetylated p53 was utilized. R-phycoerythrin was used for the negative control. RESULTS: SIRT1 expression was confirmed at both mRNA and protein levels in almost all NP cells. Real-time RT-PCR analysis showed SIRT1 mRNA expression significantly increased with donor age (P <0.05, ρ = 0.492). Pfirrmann grade 3 discs showed significantly higher SIRT1 mRNA expression than other grades. SIRT1 treatment significantly reduced aggrecan, Sox9 and collagen type 2 mRNA expression in a dose-dependent manner in all disease classes and disc degeneration grades. Proliferation activity was decreased by SIRT1 treatment in lumbar spinal stenosis and lumbar disc herniation, Pfirrmann grade 3 and grade 4 discs. In contrast, it was significantly upregulated in idiopathic scoliosis, Pfirrmann grade 2 discs. The negative control protein did not affect extracellular matrix metabolism or proliferation activity. CONCLUSIONS: We demonstrate for the first time that SIRT1 is expressed by human NP cells. SIRT1 expression was significantly elevated in an early degeneration stage. SIRT1 affected both extracellular matrix metabolism and proliferation activity; the effect of SIRT1 was altered according to disease class and disc degeneration grade. SIRT1 appears to play a key role in homeostasis during the human intervertebral disc degeneration process.2011年, Arthritis research & therapy, 13(6) (6), R200, 英語, 国際誌[査読有り]研究論文(学術雑誌)
- STUDY DESIGN: Case report. OBJECTIVE: To describe a patient with nodular fasciitis in the sciatic nerve, detected by positron emission tomography (PET). SUMMARY OF BACKGROUND DATA: Severe sciatic pain is commonly caused by lumbar disc herniation, lumbar spinal stenosis, or neoplastic lesion. These lesions are usually diagnosed by plain radiograph, myelography, computed tomography, and magnetic resonance imaging.Nodular fasciitis is a benign connective tissue tumor usually presenting as a firm, rapidly-growing lesion, occasionally arising in the forearm. Only 5 cases of intraneural nodular fasciitis have been reported in the published data, and although some have demonstrated mild neuropathy, none have shown nodular fasciitis with intractable sciatica. METHODS: A 37-year old woman experienced severe sciatica after hitting her left buttock hard on the edge of a bathtub. Physical examination demonstrated intense radiating pain from the left buttock to the lateral calf. There was weakness in the sciatic nerve innervated musculature. She was diagnosed with piriformis syndrome in a local hospital. However, the symptoms remained unchanged after surgery, releasing the piriformis. Conventional imaging of the sciatica including plain radiograph, computed tomography, and magnetic resonance imaging of the spine showed a return of abnormal findings. RESULTS: PET detected an abnormal lesion in the sciatic nerve in the posterior compartment of the patient's left thigh, indicating an intraneural tumor in the sciatic nerve. Subtotal resection was achieved and histologic evaluation of the specimen showed the typical features of nodular fasciitis. After surgery, the patient was relieved of all symptoms, with no evidence of recurrence at the recent 2-year follow-up. CONCLUSION: This is the first reported case of intraneural nodular fasciitis presenting with severe radiculopathy. Nodular fasciitis should be considered in the differential diagnosis of severe sciatica. PET may be a useful tool for diagnosing sciatica of unknown origin that cannot be identified using conventional imaging tools.2010年10月, Spine, 35(21) (21), E1137-40, 英語, 国際誌[査読有り]研究論文(学術雑誌)

- The rodent static compression loading-induced disc degeneration model still has important gaps among the radiographic, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and histological schemes and the acute and chronic expression of catabolic genes such as matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)-3. Our objectives were to assess the validity of a rat tail two-disc static compression model and to elucidate a representative catabolic marker, MMP-3 gene alterations, throughout the degenerative process. Static compression at 1.3 MPa for up to 56 days produced progressive disc height loss in radiographs, lower nucleus intensity on T2-weighted MRIs, and histomorphological degeneration. Real-time RT-PCR mRNA quantification showed significant MMP-3 up-regulation in nucleus pulposus cells from 7 days and a significantly progressive increase as the loading duration lengthened, with high correlations to radiological degenerative scores. Immunohistochemistry demonstrated progressively increased positive staining for MMP-3. These results validate this animal model for disc degeneration research. Progressive mRNA and protein-distributional up-regulations indicate the significant role of MMP-3 and its feasibility as a disc degenerative marker. This model should prove useful for investigating the pathomechanism and for evaluating molecular therapies for degenerative disc disease.2010年08月, Journal of orthopaedic research : official publication of the Orthopaedic Research Society, 28(8) (8), 1026 - 32, 英語, 国際誌[査読有り]研究論文(学術雑誌)
- We report a case of sudden onset of late infection after TKA inflamed by anti-TNFalpha therapy, Infliximab, in a 54-year-old woman with RA. Infliximab therapy was started 3 years and 8 months after TKAs as a result of multiple arthritides showing high inflammation of RA. One week after the third administration of Infliximab, the patient suffered sudden knee pain and infectious clinical symptoms, and bacteria (MSSA) were detected by joint effusion culture. She was successfully treated by open debridement with antibiotics-loaded calcium phosphate bone paste and cement and the prostheses were retained. Early diagnosis and operative treatment might be the key to controlling infected TKA without removing the implant. This present case might indicate a serious risk of immunosuppressive effects caused by Infliximab.2010年01月, Rheumatology international, 30(3) (3), 405 - 8, 英語, 国際誌[査読有り]研究論文(学術雑誌)

- STUDY DESIGN: A case report of the presyrinx state at the craniocervical junction with vanishment of an intramedullary high-signal lesion followed by decompression and fixation. OBJECTIVE: To report the reversible change of an intramedullary high-signal lesion on T2-weighted MRI as a presyrinx state. SUMMARY OF BACKGROUND DATA: The pathology of a T2-weighted high-signal intensity area in the spinal cord has not yet been described in detail. The case presented here showed the vanishment of this lesion after the surgical procedure, which implies that some high-signal intensity lesions might be reversible as a presyrinx state. METHODS: A 75-year-old man presented with severe cervical myelopathy. Neurologic findings and observations on various images indicated compression myelopathy due to both a pseudotumor at the craniocervical junction and spondylosis at C3-C4 disc level due to Klippel-Feil syndrome. The most obvious finding was a vast high-signal intensity lesion at the craniocervical junction, which was speculated to be a syringomyelia before surgery. RESULTS: The MRI at 1 month after surgical treatment (occipito-spinal fusion with the decompression by enlargement of foramen magnum) revealed complete vanishment of the vast high intensity lesion at the craniocervical junction, which remained undetected at the 2 years and 8 months follow-up and corresponded with improvement in the clinical symptoms of myelopathy. CONCLUSION: The vanishment of these signal changes on MRI after surgery was interpreted as a presyrinx state, demonstrating this reversible pathology in the spinal cord.2009年03月, Spine, 34(6) (6), E235-9, 英語, 国際誌[査読有り]研究論文(学術雑誌)
- RNA interference (RNAi) technology has recently emerged as an important biological strategy for gene silencing. Previously, the efficacies of RNAi in cultured nucleus pulposus cells in vitro have been reported. However, RNAi in the disc in vivo has never been reported. Therefore, the aims of the present study were to establish a method for RNAi in the disc in vivo and to evaluate the applicability of this technique for endogenous genes in the intervertebral discs using Fas Ligand (FasL) as a representative endogenous gene. To evaluate the efficacy of RNAi in vivo, two reporter luciferase plasmids (Firefly and Renilla) were used. These plasmids and unmodified short interference RNA (siRNA) duplex for targeting Firefly luciferase were co-transfected into coccygeal intervertebral disc of Sprague-Dawley rats in vivo using the ultrasound gene transfer technique. To evaluate the RNAi of the endogenous gene in vivo, siRNAs targeting rat FasL were transfected with the same technique. Non-specific siRNA was used as the negative control. The discs receiving no siRNAs were used as the control. The inhibitory effect of Firefly luciferase against Renilla luciferase was obtained using the results of dual-luciferase assay. Down-regulation of endogenous FasL was calculated by the data from real-time PCR. Our results showed that siRNA for Firefly luciferase can dramatically down-regulate the Firefly luciferase gene expression in vivo compared with Renilla luciferase. The inhibitory effects were maintained for at least 24 weeks and at 24 weeks post transfection, the inhibitory rate was 80% compared with the control group. Furthermore, the siRNA co-transfection group inhibited endogenous FasL expression by 53% compared with the control group. The present study demonstrates long-term down-regulation mediated by unmodified siRNA is possible not only for the exogenous reporter gene, but also for endogenous FasL expression in rat discs in vivo. This application of RNAi might be promising as a local therapy for disc degeneration and associated disorders by down-regulating some of the genes that are harmful for the normal physiology of the disc and may cause disc degeneration.2009年02月, European spine journal : official publication of the European Spine Society, the European Spinal Deformity Society, and the European Section of the Cervical Spine Research Society, 18(2) (2), 263 - 70, 英語, 国際誌[査読有り]研究論文(学術雑誌)
- ラット椎間板変性モデルを用いた変性過程における遺伝子変動の検討椎間板圧迫モデルに対し多角的評価を行い、椎間板変性モデルとして妥当性を検証した上で、椎間板変性機序の解明のために長期的な遺伝子変動を経時的に捉えた。12週齢のSprague-Dawleyラットを用いた。第8〜10尾椎体に持続的な圧迫を加え、第8/9尾椎間を圧迫群、第11/12、12/13尾椎間を対照群とした。X線およびMRIでは、持続的な椎間高の狭小化や髄核の輝度変化、組織像では第8/9、9/10尾椎間の圧迫群は第11/12、12/13尾椎間の対照群に比べて髄核および線維輪の破綻を認め、経時的に有意な変性の進行を両群に認めた。matrix metalloproteinase-3(MMP-3)のmRNA発現量は圧迫開始後7日目より上昇し、圧迫群において経時的に有意な発現量の上昇を認めた。以上より椎間板圧迫モデルは椎間板変性モデルとして妥当であり、MMP-3の異化遺伝子群の発現の発現上昇が椎間板変性に重要であることが示唆されたと考えた。(一社)中部日本整形外科災害外科学会, 2009年01月, 中部日本整形外科災害外科学会雑誌, 52(1) (1), 165 - 166, 日本語[査読有り]
- Disc degeneration is deeply associated with many spinal disorders and thus has a significant clinical impact on society. The currently available surgical treatment often necessitates removing a pathological disc and spinal fusion. However, it is also well known that these surgical treatments have many potential problems including invasion and cost. Therefore, biological approaches for regenerating these pathological discs have received much attention. Gene therapy is one of these biological approaches. Gene therapy involves the transfer of genes to cells so the recipient cells express these genes and thereby synthesize the RNA and protein they encode in a continuous fashion. One of the significant advantages of gene therapy is that we can expect a lasting duration of biological effect which is potentially beneficial for most disc degeneration associated disorders, as they are, by nature, chronic conditions. Originally, gene therapy was mediated by viral vectors, but recent technological progress has enabled us to opt for non-virus-mediated gene therapy for the disc. Furthermore, the development of the RNA interference technique has enabled us to down-regulate a specific gene expression in the disc opening the door for a new generation of intradiscal gene therapy.2008年12月, European spine journal : official publication of the European Spine Society, the European Spinal Deformity Society, and the European Section of the Cervical Spine Research Society, 17 Suppl 4(Suppl 4) (Suppl 4), 459 - 66, 英語, 国際誌[査読有り]研究論文(学術雑誌)

- 髄内釘による大腿骨転子部骨折治療時のpitfall カットアウト発生の危険因子ラグスクリューを用いた大腿骨転子部骨折治療において,刺入位置や整復に問題はなかったにもかかわらずラグスクリューのカットアウトを生じた症例を3例経験した.3例とも原因は骨折型が「陥入型」であったためと考えられた.「陥入型」とは,従来の安定型・不安定型に関係なく,骨頭が内反して中枢骨片が陥入する,即ちカルカが正面像では外側に,側面像では後方に転位するものである.このタイプの骨折では整復しても骨欠損部が残るために,骨片間の接触による安定性が得られにくく,術後ラグスクリューの過度スライディングが生じる.そして最終的に骨片同士の良好な接触が得られないままスライディングが作用しなくなれば骨頭はラグスクリューのみで把持されることとなり,刺入位置が適切であってものカットアウトのリスクは避けられない(一社)中部日本整形外科災害外科学会, 2006年03月, 中部日本整形外科災害外科学会雑誌, 49(2) (2), 355 - 356, 日本語[査読有り]

RT-PCRではA+I群ではI群と比較して細胞外基質異化因子MMP-13, ADAMTS-4や炎症性サイトカインTNF-α, IL-6の発現が有意に抑制された(p<0.005). 蛍光免疫染色ではA+I群ではI群と比較してTNF-α, ADAMTS-4の発現が有意に抑制された(p<0.05). Western Blotting法でもA+I群ではI群と比較してMMP-13, ADAMTS-4, TNF-α, IL-6の発現が有意に抑制された(p<0.03). in vivo実験としてラット尾椎針穿刺椎間板変性モデルを用いて3グループ(Control群: C群, 穿刺のみ群: P群, 穿刺後にアディポロン投与群: P+A群)に分け, 経時的に椎間板高を単純X線検査で比較した. P+A群はP群に比べ穿刺後14日及び28日目の時点で椎間板高の減少が有意に抑制された(p=0.001). 以上よりアディポロンは細胞外基質異化因子や炎症性サイトカインの発現低下を通して椎間板変性進行の防止や予防に有用な可能性が示唆された.

■ 研究シーズ- 脊椎椎間板変性遺伝子・薬物治療法の開発シーズカテゴリ:ライフサイエンス研究キーワード:椎間板変性 , mTOR・オートファジー, 遺伝子・薬物治療, 脊椎, 整形外科研究の背景と目的:腰痛は非常に高い罹患率と就労困難などの莫大な社会経済学的負担から世界的な健康問題であり、脊椎の椎間板変性はその主たる要因とされています。椎間板の発生・解剖学的特徴から細胞内クリアランス機構であるオートファジーとその上流で制御を行うmTORシグナル経路が椎間板の恒常性維持に重要な役割を担っていると仮説を立て、研究を続けております。研究内容:mTORシグナルへの遺伝子干渉や類似の効果を示す薬剤の投与が関連シグナルやオートファジーの制御を介して椎間板変性への有効な治療法となる可能性を明らかにすべく、細胞・動物実験を行っております。これまでの細胞実験からmTORは細胞に必須のシグナル伝達経路である一方、mTOR複合体1(mTORC1)の選択的な抑制が椎間板変性抑止作用を示す可能性が示唆されました。そのため私どもの研究室で確立したラット椎間板変性モデルに対してmTORC1のみを抑制する遺伝子・薬物治療を行い、椎間板変性抑止効果の有無について現在検討を行っております。ラットなど小型動物実験での治療効果を基に、ウサギ・イヌ(軟骨異栄養性)など中・大型動物を用いた実験について、他大学との共同研究も視野に入れつつ検討していく予定です。期待される効果や応用分野:本法は細胞自身の清浄力・治癒力を高めることで椎間板の恒常性を維持して変性の進行を抑制する、より生理的な治療法・予防法となる可能性があり、本研究から得られた知見は脊椎椎間板(腰部脊柱管狭窄症)のみならず関節軟骨(変形性関節症)など多くの退行性疾患への繋がるものと考えられます。関係する業績:Kakiuchi Y, Yurube T, et al.

- 新規コラーゲンゲル充填剤を用いた脊椎椎間板組織修復の試みシーズカテゴリ:ライフサイエンス, ナノテク・材料研究キーワード:椎間板変性 , 椎間板ヘルニア, LASCol, 脊椎, 整形外科研究の背景と目的:腰痛や関連した神経痛は世界的な健康問題であり、脊椎椎間板変性はその主たる要因とされています。破壊が進行した組織の再建には足場となる生体材料が重要になりますが、既存の材料では椎間板再生能に乏しく限界があり、新たな治療戦略が必要と考えるに至りました。そのため本研究では新規コラーゲンゲル充填剤による脊椎椎間板治療の可能性について検討しております。研究内容:本研究では近畿大学で開発された細胞低接着性コラーゲン(Low Adhesive Scaffold Collagen:LASCol)を用いた脊椎椎間板組織修復の可能性について検討しました。ヒト椎間板細胞はLASColゲル上でのみスフェロイド細胞凝集塊の形成ならびに椎間板表現型・前駆細胞マーカーと細胞外基質の発現増大を認めました。ラット椎間板髄核摘出モデルにLASColゲルを埋植したところ、X線撮影で椎間板高の維持、MRIで椎間板輝度の残存、組織学的検討で椎間板表現型を有する細胞外基質産生細胞のLASColゲル内への浸潤を認めました。以上よりLASColゲルがスフェロイド形成を介して細胞の活性化を促す新たな椎間板組織修復充填剤となる可能性が示されました。本研究結果を基に現在、近畿大学・神戸大学・大阪府立大学・神戸医療産業都市推進機構医療TRIの四者共同で共同研究を進めております。期待される効果や応用分野:LASColは単独で周囲から細胞を呼び込み凝集塊を形成することで微小環境の保持を可能とし、生体内に豊富に存在するコラーゲンを用いた、安全で安価な椎間板組織修復のための新規生体材料となる可能性が示唆されております。今回得られた知見から軟骨再生など他領域への応用が進み、変形性関節症の治療にも繋がる可能性があります。LASColを用いた低侵襲の再生医療の実現を目指して、今後も研究を継続して参ります。関係する業績:Takeoka Y, Yurube T, et al.
