Цель исследования - оценка токсического действия сферических кальций-фосфатных бионов и игольчатых кальций-фосфатных бионов на предварительно поврежденную интиму аорты крыс. Методика. Токсическое действие сферических кальций-фосфатных бионов и игольчатых кальций-фосфатных бионов на поврежденную интиму брюшной аорты крыс линии Wistar (n = 10 на группу) оценивали путем их однократного внутривенного введения после баллонной ангиопластики с эксплантацией поврежденного участка аорты через 5 нед. Биоптаты анализировали: 1) классическими гистологическими методами (окрашивание гематоксилин-эозином, ализариновым красным, по Вейгерту-ван Гизону и по Расселлу-Мовату); 2) иммунофлюоресцентным окрашиванием криосрезов (сочетанное окрашивание на CD31 и CD34, на CD31 и α-гладкомышечный актин (α-ГМА), на виментин и α-ГМА, на коллаген IV типа и α-ГМА). Для оценки влияния системного воспаления на КФБ-индуцированную эндотелиотоксичность определяли содержание моноцитарного хемоаттрактантного белка (МСР-1/CCL2) и церулоплазмина в сыворотке крови прооперированных крыс посредством иммуноферментного анализа. Результаты. Сферические кальций-фосфатные бионы и игольчатые кальций-фосфатные бионы вызывали выраженную гипертрофию интимы брюшной аорты в 90% (9 из 10 крыс) и 80% случаев (8 из 10 крыс) соответственно, в то время как частота гипертрофии в группе контрольных крыс составила лишь 10% (1 из 10 крыс). Неоинтима при экспозиции интимы брюшной аорты обоим типам бионов характеризовалась переходом фенотипа клеток мезенхимального ряда с контрактильного (α-ГМА-положительные и виментин-отрицательные гладкомышечные клетки) и неактивного (α-ГМА-отрицательные и виментин-положительные фибробласты) на активный синтетический (α-ГМА- и виментин-положительные клетки), что приводило к формированию значительных количеств экстрацеллюлярного матрикса. Внутривенное введение сферических кальций-фосфатных бионов и игольчатых кальций-фосфатных бионов не приводило к изменению уровней МСР-1/CCL2 и церулоплазмина в сыворотке крови, что свидетельствовало об отсутствии их возможного влияния на развитие системного воспалительного ответа. Заключение. Внутривенное введение кальций-фосфатных бионов после повреждения интимы брюшной аорты крыс путем баллонной ангиопластики вызывает развитие гипертрофии интимы, частота и выраженность которой не зависит от формы кальций-фосфатных бионов и которая характеризуется переходом фенотипа клеток мезенхимального ряда из контрактильного/неактивного на активный синтетический. При этом эндотелиотоксическое действие кальций-фосфатных бионов обусловлено их непосредственным воздействием на эндотелий, а не развитием системного воспаления. Purpose. To compare toxicity of spherical calcium phosphate bions (SCPB) and needle-shaped calcium phosphate bions (NCPB) to injured intima of rat aortas. Methods. Toxicity of SCPB and NCPB to injured abdominal aortas of Wistar rats (n = 10 per group) was evaluated using intravenous administration of the bions after balloon angioplasty. Rats were sacrificed five weeks postoperation, and an injured aortic segment was excised. Tissue preparations were stained with hematoxylin and eosin, alizarin red S, Weigert-van Gieson, and Movat’s pentachrome stains. Selected tissue samples were then examined using combined immunofluorescence staining (CD31/CD34, CD31/α-smooth muscle actin (α-SMA), α-SMA/vimentin, and α-SMA/collagen IV). Possible influence of systemic inflammation on CPB-induced endothelial toxicity was assessed by measuring monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 and ceruloplasmin in rat serum using the enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Results. Intravenous administration of SCPB or NCPB provoked intimal hyperplasia in 90% (9 of 10) and 80% (8 of 10) of rats vs. 10% (1 of 10) in the control group. The neointima was characterized by a phenotypic switch of mesenchymal cells, i.e. transition of a contractile (α-SMA-positive, vimentin-negative vascular smooth muscle cells) and quiescent (α-SMA-negative vimentin-positive fibroblasts) to an active synthetic phenotype (double-positive cells), which resulted in deposition of the extracellular matrix. Neither SCPB nor NCPB changed serum levels of pro-inflammatory molecules, МСР-1/CCL2, and ceruloplasmin. Conclusions. Intravenous administration of CPB upon balloon-induced vascular injury caused intimal hyperplasia regardless of the CPB shape. Hyperplasia foci were characterized by a switch of mesenchymal cells from a contractile/quiescent to an active synthetic phenotype. Endothelial toxicity of CPBs was defined by their direct cytotoxic action rather than induction of systemic inflammation.

Although dietary phosphate restriction is important for treating hyperphosphatemia in patients with chronic kidney disease, it remains unclear whether a low-protein diet (LPD), which contains low phosphate, has beneficial effects on malnutrition, inflammation, and vascular calcification. The effects of LPD on inflammation, malnutrition, and vascular calcification were therefore assessed in rats. Rats were fed a normal diet or diets containing 0.3% adenine and low/normal protein and low/high phosphate. After 6 wk, serum and urinary biochemical parameters, systemic inflammation, and vascular calcification were examined. The protective effect of fetuin-A and albumin were assessed in cultured vascular smooth muscle cells. Rats fed the diet containing 0.3% adenine developed severe azotemia. LPD in rats fed high phosphate induced malnutrition (decreases in body weight, food intake, serum albumin and fetuin-A levels, and urinary creatinine excretion) and systemic inflammation (increases in serum tumor necrosis factor-α and urinary oxidative stress marker). LPD decreased the serum fetuin-A level and fetuin-A synthesis in the liver and increased serum calcium-phosphate precipitates. A high-phosphate diet increased aortic calcium content, which was enhanced by LPD. Reduced fetal calf serum in the medium of cultured vascular smooth muscle cells enhanced phosphate-induced formation of calcium-phosphate precipitates in the media and calcification of vascular smooth muscle cells, both of which were prevented by fetuin-A administration. Our results suggest that phosphate restriction by restricting dietary protein promotes vascular calcification by lowering the systemic fetuin-A level and increasing serum calcium-phosphate precipitates and induces inflammation and malnutrition in uremic rats fed a high-phosphate diet.

In this work we are studying whether calcium phosphate deposition (CPD) during vascular calcification is a passive or a cell-mediated mechanism. Passive CPD was studied in fixed vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMC), which calcify faster than live cells in the presence of 1.8 mM Ca2+ and 2 mM Pi. CPD seems to be a cell-independent process that depends on the concentration of calcium, phosphate, and hydroxyl ions, but not on Ca × Pi concentration products, given that deposition is obtained with 2 × 2 and 4 × 1 Ca × Pi mM2 but not with 2 × 1 or 1 × 4 Ca × Pi mM2. Incubation with 4 mM Pi without CPD (i.e., plus 1 mM Ca) does not induce osteogene expression. Increased expression of bone markers such as Bmp2 and Cbfa1 is only observed concomitantly with CPD. Hydroxyapatite is the only crystalline phase in both lysed and live cells. Lysed cell deposits are highly crystalline, whereas live cell deposits still contain large amounts of amorphous calcium. High-resolution transmission electron microscopy revealed a nanostructure of rounded crystallites of 5–10 nm oriented at random in lysed cells, which is compatible with spontaneous precipitation. The nanostructure in live cells consisted of long fiber crystals, 10-nm thick, embedded in an amorphous matrix. This structure indicates an active role of cells in the process of hydroxyapatite crystallization. In conclusion, our data suggest that CPD is a passive phenomenon, which triggers the osteogenic changes that are involved in the formation of a well organized, calcified crystalline structure.

The aim of the present study is to evaluate the biomineralization behavior of silk fibroin. The biomimetic mineralization was carried out in an alternative calcium/phosphate soaking solution (ACPS). The formation of calcium phosphate deposits was identified by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy-dispersive X-ray (EDX), X-ray diffraction (XRD) and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR). A quick formation of well-crystallized apatite on the surface of the silk fibroin film indicates that biomineralization may be an effective approach to obtaining fibroin/HAP composites.
