Lt #, Department of Orthopedic Surgery, Korea University College of Medicine $, Department of Mechanical Engineering +, Yonsei University, School of Advanced Materials Engineering ++, Yonsei University Study Design: In vitro experimental study Objectives: To examine the effect of a synovial supernatant on the cell viability, osteogenic phenotype, mrna expression of the types collagen and various transcriptional factors on osteogenesis in ligamentum flavum (LF) cells stimulated with synovial fluid from a degenerated facet joint. Literature Review: In degenerative lumbar spinal stenosis, hypertrophied LF or osteoarthritic hypertrophy of a facet joint often causes neurogenic claudication. The facet joint is a synovial joint with hyaline cartilage on each side. Therefore, osteoarthritis of a facet joint eventually occurs with aging and other degenerative conditions of the spine. In lumbar spinal degeneration, inflammatory mediators or cytokines are released from the facet joint tissue, which consequently affects the adjacent LF because the LF covers posterolateral aspect of the spinal canal near facet joints. However, there are no reports on the relationship between a degenerated facet joint fluid and the LF in the lumbar spine. Materials and Methods: LF surgical specimens were obtained from patients with a lumbar spine stenosis, and the cells were isolated by enzymatic digestion. Each of the synovium tissues were weighed and recorded. Each tissue was cut into small pieces with a pair of scissors and then washed 3 times with PBS. The washed tissue pieces were then cultured for 96 hr at 37 C, 5% CO 2 in DMEM/F % FBS with a density of 200 mg/ml medium. The supernatant was collected after 96 hr.

2 대한척추외과학회지 Vol. 14, No. 1, 2007 measure quantitatively the proliferation of cells, the AlamarBlue assay was used. The total cellular RNA was extracted from the cells and amplification reactions specific to the following types of cdna were performed: the osteogenic master transcription factors, Dlx5, Runx2, osterix, and types collagen and osteocalcin. Alkaline phosphatase staining for the biochemical assay and western blotting for osteocalcin protein expression were performed. Results: Human LF cells cultured with the supernatant from the facet synovium showed a slightly stronger AlamarBlue staining than the intensity of the control culture. RT-PCR revealed the upregulation of the osteogenic master transcription factors, Dlx5, Runx2, and osterix in the synovium supernatant group from one hour to 72 hours, and an increase in osteocalcin, types collagen I, III, V, XI levels from one hour to one week. LF cells cultured with the supernatant from the facet synovium showed positive staining for alkaline phosphatase. The level of the osteocalcin protein in the LF cells cultured with the supernatant from the facet synovium was higher than the control group. Conclusions: The supernatant of the facet joint from patients with degenerative spinal stenosis affects LF cells by increasing the level of cellular proliferation, upregulating the mrna expression of osteocalcin, types of collagen, osteogenic transcription factors, positive alkaline phosphatase staining, and osteocalcin protein expression. Therefore, degenerated synovial fluid from the facet joint is an important mechanism of LF hypertrophy and ossification.

Alkaline phosphatase stain. Ligamentum flavum cell culture with synovium supernatant for 1 week showed positive alkaline phosphatase stain. 험적연구가있었다. 반복적인기계적신연자극에의한 transforming growth factor beta1 발현에의한세포증식및교원질발현증가 16) 노화및인대자체의퇴행성변화에의한비후 1) 등이제시되고있다. 본연구에서는척추후관절과인접한황색인대가척추후관절의퇴행성변화에의한염증성활액의작용으로비후혹은골화될수있다는가설하에실험적연구를진행하였다. 본연구에서인간척추황색인대에퇴행된활액막에서얻어진활액막액을처리한결과, 척추황색인대의골화및섬유화가되는것을실험적으로증명하였다. 퇴행된척추활액막으로부터얻은활액막액을처리한황색인대세포는초기골형성전사인자인 Dlx5, Runx2, Osterix 등의 mrna 발현이증가하였고, 후기골형성인자인 osteocalcin mrna 발현도증가하였다. 골형성표현형인 osteocalcin 의단백발현이검출되었으며, 골형성표현인자인 alkaline phosphatase 염색에서양성반응이있었음으로척추후관절에서기인한활액막액이척추황색인대의골화에영향을끼친다는것을확인할수있었다. 그리고섬유화와관련된제 1 형, 3 형, 5 형, 그리고 11 형의교원질의 mrna 발현이시간이지남에따라급격하게증가함을보면역시척추후관절활액막액이황색인대의섬유화에도영향을끼친다는것을알수있었다. 골형성의완전히증명하기위해서는장기배양후골형성결절을염색하는 von Kossa 염색이필요하나본연구에서는장기배양에서도의미있는염색결과를보이지않았는데이는활액막의골형성능이 bone morphogenetic protein-2 같은강력한골형성인자에비해서는아주약한골형성능력을보임으로실험기간중에의미있는골결절은형성하지않았다고추정된다. 본연구의결과로기존의반복적기계적신연에의한 transforming grwth factor beta1 발현 16), 퇴행된추간판조직에서발현하는염증성 cytokine 류에의한자극, 추간판간격감소로인한황색인대의겹침 (buckling) 현상등에추가하여퇴행된척추후관절에서분비되는염증성활액막액도척추황색인대의비후와골화에중요한기전임을알수있다. 이상의연구들과본연구의결과를종합하면척추황색인대비후및골화는단순히인대자체의변성퇴화, 일생에걸친반복적신연에의한성장인자 (transforming growth factor-beta1) 발현에의한비후, 퇴행된추간판의추간판간격감소로인한후방구조물황색인대의겹침현상, 퇴행된추간판조직에서발현되는염증성 cytokine 들에의한비후및골화, 그리고본연구에서증명된퇴행된척추후관절에서분비되는염증성활액막에의한비후및골화로종합될수있다. 기술된모든기전이황색인대의교원질형성을촉진시켜섬유화를이

8 대한척추외과학회지 Vol. 14, No. 1, 2007 루는최종과정을거치게되어있으므로치료적의미로국소적으로교원질화의방해를유도할수있다면노화및퇴행성변화로진행되는황색인대의비후를부분적으로막을수있을것이며이는침습적수술을피할수있는방법이될수도있다. 현재가장유망한항섬유화인자는 relaxin 17) 으로추정되며이와관련한연구가진행되어야할것이다. 본연구의의의는문헌상최초로퇴행된척추활액막으로부터나온활액막액이척추황색인대의골화및섬유화에영향을끼친다는사실을분자생물학적그리고조직면역학적기법을동원하여골성인자및교원질 mrna 의발현, 골성표현형의발현, 그리고 alkaline phosphatase 발현등을통해증명하였다는것이다. 그럼에도불구하고본연구의제한점도있는데이는척추후관절활액막액을활액막의조직배양에서추출하였음으로생체내의환경을반영할수없다는점과해부학적으로척추후관절과황색인대가인접한구조이기는하나적접적으로척추후관절활액막액이황색인대조직에전체적으로침투하여세포증식및섬유화를야기한다고실제조직에서증명하기가어렵다는점이다. 결 론 이상의결과로퇴행성척추협착증환자로부터추출한요추후관절의활액막조직의상층액은척추황색인대세포의세포증식및골형성인자 (osteocalcin, Dlx5, Runx2, osterix mrna 발현, alkaline phosphatase 염색반응, osteocalcin 단백질발현 ) 발현과교원질 ( 제 1 형, 3 형, 5 형, 11 형교원질 mrna) 발현의증가에영향을주었다. 따라서퇴행성척추후관절활액막액은황색인대의비대및골화에중요한영향을발휘한다고사료된다. 참고문헌 01) Lee HM: Pathophysiology of lumbar spinal stenosis.

Endocrine Rev 2004; 25: 국문초록 연구계획 : 인간황색인대세포에퇴행성척추후관절로부터나온활액막액을처리한후배양한다. 연구목적 : 시간이지남에따라활액막액이황색인대세포의증식, 교원질생성및골형성에어떤영향을끼치는지에대하여알아보았다. 대상및방법 : 요추협착증으로수술한환자에게서황색인대조직을채취하여황색인대세포를배양하였으며척추후관절에서활액막을제거한후조직배양하였다. 활액막조직을 96시간동안조직배양하여모은상층액을황색인대세포에처리하여배양하였으며, 시간에따른세포의대사활성및생존력을확인하기위해 alamarblue assay를실시하였고, 전사수준에서의골형성관련유전자및 osteocalcin, 그리고교원질유전자의변화를확인하고자 RT-PCR 을통한densitometry를분석하였다. 또한골형성표현형확인을위해 alkaline phosphatase staining을실시하였고, osteocalcin 단백질발현정도를알아보고자 western blotting을실시하였다. 결과 : 활액막조직상층액을처리한황색인대세포의실험군에 Alamarblue assay를한결과, 대조군보다활발한대사활성을보임으로써상층액이무독성인것을확인하였으며, 세포들은일정시간에서급격한대사활성의증가를보였다. 또한대표적인골형성전사인자인 Dlx5, Runx2, 그리고 osterix들의 1시간에서 72시간간의발현이대조군에비해유의하게증가하였으며, osteocalcin과교원질유전자의 1시간에서 1주일간의발현역시후반부에서급격한증가를보였고, alkaline phosphatase staining을통해골형성분화가진행되는것을확인할수있었다. 또한 western blotting 을통해서 osteocalcin 단백질의발현이시간이지남에따라대조군에비해유의하게증가하였다. 결론 : 이상의결과로퇴행성척추협착증이있는환자로부터추출된퇴행성요추후관절내의활액막액은황색인대세포의증식및골형성인자 (osteocalcin, Dlx5, Runx2, osterix mrna expressions, positive alkaline phsphatase stain, osteocalcin protein) 발현을증가시켰으며, 제 1형, 3형, 5형, 11형의교원질의발현도증가시켰다. 따라서이전연구에서밝혀진퇴행된추간판과함께퇴행성요추후관절내의활액막액은황색인대의비후및골화에중요한영향을끼친다고사료된다. 색인단어 : 황색인대세포, 척추후관절, 활액막, 활액막액, 척추협착증 통신저자 : 문성환서울특별시서대문구신촌동 134 연세대학교의과대학정형외과학교실 Tel: Fax: shmoon@yumc.yonsei.ac.kr
