Spot14/Spot14R expression may be involved in MSC adipogenic differentiation in patients with adolescent idiopathic scoliosis.

ABSTRACT: The aim of the present study was to evaluate the different expression levels of thyroid hormone responsive (THRSP; Spot14)/S14 related, Mig12 (S14R) during bone marrow mesenchymal stem cell (BM-MSC) adipogenesis in adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) patients. MSCs were retrospectively isolated from AIS patients and controls, and adipogenic differentiation was induced. Total RNA was extracted for Affymetrix 3'?IVT expression profiling microarrays and compared with the results from healthy controls. The results were confirmed by semiquantitative reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) validation and the protein expression levels of Spot14 and its paralogous gene S14R by western blotting and immunohistochemistry. A total of 300 significantly altered mRNAs were detected (111 upregulated and 189 downregulated) and confirmed by RT?qPCR. The mRNA expression levels of seven genes, including Spot14, were altered by >2?fold in AIS patients. Spot14/S14R was selected for further investigation. The results of the western blotting demonstrated that mRNA and protein expression levels of Spot14/S14R were significantly higher in AIS patients than the controls (P<0.05). Immunohistochemistry demonstrated Spot14 was expressed in 85% (17/20 cases) in adipose tissue samples from AIS patients and 23.1% (3/13 cases) of adipose tissue samples from controls. The positive ratio of Spot14 in adipose tissue samples from AIS was significantly higher than the controls (P<0.001). The results of the present study indicated that Spot14/S14R were differently expressed in MSC adipogenesis in AIS patients, and they may be important in the abnormal adipogenic differentiation in AIS.

Project description:BackgroundIn order to improve post-operative patient's quality-of-life, attention must be paid to the identification of factors that play a role in patient's satisfaction with surgical treatment. Patient satisfaction with the outcomes of scoliosis surgery has not been addressed so comprehensively in Saudi literature, as well as the effect of patient satisfaction on the different domains of the SRS-22 questionnaire and radiographic parameters is yet to be reported locally. The aim of this study is to explore such findings especially in our population.MethodsA retrospective cohort study was conducted at two of the largest centers of spine surgery in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. A total of 316 eligible patients were selected via consecutive sampling technique. Data were collected from eligible patients who fit our inclusion criteria, which includes patients with adolescent idiopathic scoliosis aged from 10 to 21 years. Student t test, Pearson's and Spearman's correlation coefficients statistical tests were used.ResultsThere were 283 (89.6%) females and 33 (10.4%) male patients with a mean age of 15.09 (± 2.27 SD) years. All the domains of SRS-22 showed significantly higher scores 2-year postoperatively, when compared with preoperative values (P < 0.001). The change in all SRS-22 domains correlated positively and significantly with the 2-year postoperative satisfaction using Pearson's correlation coefficient (P < 0.05); the total score showed the highest correlation followed by the self-image domain. The major Cobb angle correction percentage correlated significantly (P < 0.05) solely with the change in pain domain.ConclusionSelf-image correlated highly and significantly with patient satisfaction postoperatively. It also had the biggest influence SRS-22 scores postoperatively in conjunction with satisfaction scores. That is an indication of the role it plays in patient satisfaction and quality-of-life postoperatively, which may influence the surgical decision making.
