Hypoxia-Preconditioned Human Umbilical Cord Blood-Derived Mesenchymal
Abstract:
Hypoglycemia is a neglected metabolic disorder. Thus, we evaluated the protective effect of hypoxia-preconditioned human umbilical cord blood-derived mesenchymal stem cells (hUCB-MSCs) on hypoglycemic testicular injury. We examined 56 testes from 28 animals: 7 rats with insulin-induced hypoglycemia (HG group), 7 hypoglycemic rats which received an intratesticular injection of hUCB-MSCs (HG-MSC group), and 14 untreated control rats. Testosterone level, testicular catalase (CAT) activity, and malondialdehyde (MDA) level were analyzed. Immunostaining for specific testicular germ and somatic cell markers was performed. Proliferating and apoptotic cells were detected by anti-PCNA and anti-caspase-3, respectively. Morphometrical data were statistically analyzed. The hypoglycemic rats showed a significant decrease in testosterone level and CAT activity and a significant increase in MDA production. Examination of histological structure and protein expression of diverse germ cell markers revealed collapsed tubules that were lined by degenerated germ cells, decreased lactate dehydrogenase type C immune expression, as well as decreased proliferating and increased apoptotic cells number in hypoglycemic testes. Injection of MSCs improved testicular biochemical parameters, preserved germ cells and somatic cells, and decreased apoptosis. In conclusion, hypoxia-preconditioned hUCB-MSCs attenuate rat testicular injury caused by insulin induced hypoglycemia. Avoidance and rapid management of hypoglycemia are necessary to avoid significant testicular injury.
