Abstract
Bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) can be differentiated into a variety of cells and repair damaged cells. We explore whether BMSCs can repair brain damage and synapses regeneration in mice under intrauterine ischemia and hypoxia. Twenty-five pregnant mice were assigned into control group, 6% hypoxic injury group, 8% hypoxic injury group, 6% treatment group, 8% treatment group followed by analysis of the expression of MBP, MAG, CSPGs, IGF-1, NCAN, COLIV, SynD1G1, GFAP, GSK-3β, and β-actin by RT-PCR and Western blot. Our results showed that the expression of MBP, MAG, COL IV, SynD1G1, IGF-1 in the treatment group were significantly higher than those in hypoxic injury group with significant differences between the 8% treatment group and 6% treatment group (P < 0.05). In conclusion, BMSCs can repair brain damage and synapse regeneration in mice under different intrauterine ischemia and hypoxia conditions which might be through Wnt signaling pathway.
