| Abstract: | New FindingsWhat is the central question of this study?Although fibroblasts are involved in the regenerative process associated with peripheral nerve injury, detailed information regarding their characteristics is largely lacking.What is the main finding and its importance?Nerve-derived fibroblasts have a greater neurite-promoting effect than skin-derived fibroblasts, and epineurium-derived fibroblasts can promote neurite outgrowth more effectively than parenchyma-derived fibroblasts. The epineurium-derived fibroblasts and parenchyma-derived fibroblasts have distinctly different molecular profiles, including genes of soluble factors to promote axonal growth. Fibroblasts are molecularly and functionally different depending on their localization in nerve tissue, and epineurium-derived fibroblasts might be involved in axon regeneration after peripheral nerve injury more than previously thought. Although fibroblasts (Fb) are components of a peripheral nerve involved in the regenerative process associated with peripheral nerve injury, detailed information regarding their characteristics is largely lacking. The objective of the present study was to investigate the capacity of Fb derived from peripheral nerves to stimulate the outgrowth of neurites from adult dorsal root ganglion neurons and to clarify their molecular characteristics. Fibroblasts were prepared from the epineurium and parenchyma of rat sciatic nerves and skin. The Fb derived from epineurium showed the greatest effect on neurite outgrowth, followed by the Fb derived from parenchyma, indicating that Fb derived from nerves promote neurite outgrowth more effectively than skin-derived Fb. Although both soluble and cell-surface factors contributed evenly to the neurite-promoting effect of nerve-derived Fb, in crush and transection injury models, Fb were not closely associated with regenerating axons, indicating that only soluble factors from Fb are available to regenerating axons. A transcriptome analysis revealed that the molecular profiles of these Fb were distinctly different and that the gene expression profiles of soluble factors that promote axonal growth are unique to each Fb. These findings indicate that Fb are molecularly and functionally different depending on their localization in nerve tissue and that Fb derived from epineurium might be involved more than was previously thought in axon regeneration after peripheral nerve injury. |
