摘要
A mechanical insult to the brain drastically alters the microenvironment as specific cell types become reactive in an effort to sequester severely damaged tissue. Although injury induced astrogliosis has been investigated, the relationship between well-defined biomechanical inputs and acute astrogliotic alterations is not well understood. We evaluated the effects of strain rate on cell death and astrogliosis using a three-dimensional (3-D) in vitro model of neurons and astrocytes within a bioactive matrix. At 21 days post-plating, co-cultures were deformed to 0.50 shear strain at strain rates of 1, 10, or 30 s(-1). We found that cell death and astrogliotic profiles varied differentially based on strain rate at 2 days post-insult. Significant cell death was observed after moderate (10 s(-1)) and high (30 s(-1)) rate deformation, but not after quasi-static (1 s(-1)) loading. The vast majority of cell death occurred in neurons, suggesting that these cells are more susceptible to high rate shear strains than astrocytes for the insult parameters used here. Injury-induced astrogliosis was compared to co-cultures treated with transforming growth factor beta, which induced robust astrocyte hypertrophy and increased glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) and chondroitin sulfate proteoglycans (CSPGs). Quasi-static loading resulted in increased cell density and CSPG secretion. Moderate rate deformation increased cell density, GFAP reactivity, and hypertrophic process density. High rate deformation resulted in increased GFAP reactivity; however, other astrogliotic alterations were not observed at this time-point. These results demonstrate that the mode and degree of astrogliosis depend on rate of deformation, demonstrating astrogliotic augmentation at sub-lethal injury levels as well as levels inducing cell death.
