Definitions
- the present invention relates the use of serum antibodies for the diagnosis and treatment of disc herniation with resulting nerve root pain in the cervical and lumbar spine such as sciatica.
- the object of the present invention is to obtain improved methods in diagnosis and treatment of nerve root pain such as sciatica and other radiculopathies related to disc herniation in the cervical or lumbar spine.
- nucleus pulposus since the nucleus pulposus is secluded from the immune-system from birth, being a non-vascularized tissue, the immune system has not regarded the nucleus pulposus as "self during early embryonic stages, but would instead consider the nucleus pulposus as "non-self later in life (15-22).
- possible antigens in the nucleus pulposus might thus be presented to the immune system and there would be an auto-immune reaction induced towards these antigens.
- the reaction would mainly involve the nucleus pulposus, but the substances might also induce changes in the adjacent nerve roots secondary to this reaction.
- These suggested substances would most likely be the same pro-inflammatory cytokines as previously being defined as inducing nerve root injury.
- Ketalar R ketamine 50 mg/ml, Parke-Davis, Morris Plains, NJ
- Hypnodil R metalhomidate chloride 50 mg/ml, AB Leo, Helsingborg, Sweden
- Stresnil R azaperon, 2 mg/ml, Janssen Pharmaceutica, Beerse, Belgium
- the pig was killed by an overdose of potassium chloride.
- the lumbar and lower part of the thoracic spine was removed en bloc.
- the spine was cleansed from muscles and tendons.
- the discs were incised and the nucleus pulposus was harvested.
- the nucleus pulposus (NP) was washed once in Ham's F12 medium (Gibco BRL, Paisley, Scotland).
- the NP from discs were placed in a test tube with Ham's F12 medium and centrifuged. The remaining pellet was dissolved in 6 ml of Ham's F12 with 3 ml of trypsine 2.5 % in a 75 cm 2 culture flask for 30 minutes at 37°C.
- Fungizone 2 ⁇ g/ml and ⁇ -ascorbic acid 50 ⁇ g/ml was added.
- the cells were cultured in 25 cm 2 flasks (Costar, Cambridge, MA), at 37°C and 5% CO 2 in air for 3-4 weeks . After 2 weeks the cells were transferred to 4-chamber polystyrene vessel tissue culture treated glass slides (Becton Dickinson Labware, Franklin Lakes, NJ). Following 3 days of culture the slides were used for the assessment as will be described below.
- a 2x2 cm big piece of the skin was harvested at the same time as the nucleus pulposus under sterile conditions.
- the dermis of the skin was cut in small pieces and put in spinner bottles with 10 ml of collagenase solution (0.8 mg/ml, Sigma Chemical, St. Louis, MO, in Ham's F12 medium) for 90 minutes in 37°C water bath.
- the separated fibroblasts were centrifuged and transferred to 75 cm 2 tissue culture flasks (Costar, Cambridge, MA), with DMEM/F12 1:1 medium supplemented as above for NP-cells.
- the cultured fibroblasts were liberated from the culture flasks by treatment of 0.125% trypsine solution (Gibco BRL, Paisley, Scotland) and added to the serum.
- the addition of fibroblasts was performed in order to eliminate the risk that antibodies in the serum which non-specifically would bind to cultured cells, would be applied to the nucleus pulposus cells.
- the test-tube was centrifuged and the supernatant collected (serum with remaining antibodies).
- the culture slides with the cultured nucleus pulposus cells were fixed in acetone for 10 minutes and then dried in air.
- the slides were washed twice for 5 minutes in PBS (Phosphate Buffered Saline, Life Technologies Ltd., Paisley, Scotland)
- the slides were then treated with 0.3% H2O2 (Sigma Chemical, St. Louis, MO) for 30 minutes and then washed twice for 5 minutes in PBS.
- the slides were then exposed to standard freeze-dried milk (5% in PBS) for 30 minutes to block irrelevant antigens, and then washed twice for 5 minutes in PBS.
- the cultured NP-cells were exposed to a) one drop of the pretreated serum, b) one drop of the pretreated serum diluted by PBS 1:40; or c) not in serum at all, and incubated for 1 hr at room temperature, and then washed twice for 5 minutes in PBS.
- the culture slides were then incubated with the secondary antibody (Peroxidase-Conjugated Rabbit Anti-Swine immunoglobulin, Code No. P164, Dako A/S, Glostrup, Denmark) for 30 minutes, and then washed twice for 5 minutes in PBS.
- the slides were finally developed with DAB (3,3'-diaminobenzidine, 10 mg in 5 ml PBS, and 17 ⁇ l H 2 O 2 (3%), Sigma Chemical, St. Louis, MO) for 2 minutes, and then washed twice for 5 minutes in PBS.
- DAB 3,3'-diaminobenzidine, 10 mg in 5 ml PBS, and 17 ⁇ l H 2 O 2 (3%), Sigma Chemical, St. Louis, MO
- the specimens were dehydrated in a series of alcohol-dilutions and assessed by light microscopy.
- the antigen may be a potent antigen, comparable for instance to the MHC (Major Histocompatibility Complex)antigens.
- the present invention can thus be used in the form of an antigen containing diagnostic kit for diagnosing disc herniation, in particular disc herniation leading to sciatica.
- an antigen containing diagnostic kit for diagnosing disc herniation, in particular disc herniation leading to sciatica.
- serum antibodies towards the nucleus pulposus cells can be neutralized in three ways. First the NP-antibodies can be inactivated by administering a specific antibody for such serum antibodies, an anti-antibody.
- the effects of the NP-antibodies can be inhibited by administering a substance that is similar to the NP- antibody, a false antibody, and binds to the antigen in the nucleus pulposus in stead of the antibody, which false antibody is able to bind to and block the antigen in such a way that an immunological reaction is inhibited.
- soluble antigens corresponding to the NP- antibodies can be administered, thereby blocking the effects of the NP-antibodies. In such ways the action of the NP-antibodies can be blocked since the NP-antibodies are prevented from binding to its antigen.
- the compounds of the invention can be administered in a variety of dosage forms, e.g, orally, in the form of tablets, capsules, sugar or film coated tablets, liquid solutions; rectally, in the form of suppositories; parenterally, e.g., intramuscularly or by intravenous injection or infusion.
- the therapeutic regimen for the different clinical syndromes must be adapted to the type of pathology taken in to account, as usual, also the route of administration, the form in which the compound is administered and age, weight, and condition of the subject involved.
- the oral route is employed, in general, for all conditions, requiring such compounds.
- preference is given to intravenous injection.
- the compounds of the invention can be administered orally at doses ranging from about 20 to about 1500 mg/day.
- these dosage regimens may be adjusted to provide the optimal therapeutic response.
- compositions containing the compounds of the invention in association with pharmaceutically acceptable carriers or diluents will, of course, depend upon the desired route of administration.
- the composition may be formulated in the conventional manner with the usual ingredients.
- the compounds of the invention may be administered in the form of aqueous or oily solutions or suspensions, tablets, pills, gelatine capsules (hard or soft ones)syrups, drops or suppositories.
- the pharmaceutical compositions containing the compounds of the invention are preferably tablets, pills or gelatine capsules, which contain the active substance together with diluents, such as lactose, dextrose, sucrose, mannitol, sorbitol, cellulose; lubricants, e.g., silica, talc, stearic acid, magnesium or calcium stearate, and/or polyethylene glycols; or they may also contain binders, such as starches, gelatine, methyl cellulose, carboxymefhylcellulose, gum arabic, tragacanth, polyvinylpyrrolidone; disaggregating agents such as starches, alginic acid, alginates, sodium starch glycolate, microcrystalline cellulose; effervescing agents such a carbonates and acids; dyestoffs; sweeteners; wetting agents, such as lecithin, polysorbates, laurylsulphates; and in general non-toxic and pharmaceutically inert substances
- compositions may be manufactured in known manners, e.g., by means of mixing, granulating, tableting, sugar-coating or film-coating processes.
- film providing compounds can be selected to provide release in the right place in the intestinal tract with regard to absorption and maximum effect.
- pH-dependent film formers can be used to allow absorption in the intestines as such, whereby different phthalate are normally used or acrylic acid/methacrylic acid derivatives and polymers.
- liquid dispersions for oral administration may be e.g., syrups, emulsion, and suspensions.
- the syrups may contain as carrier, e.g., saccharose, or saccharose with glycerine and/or mannitol and/or sorbitol.
- Suspensions and emulsions may contain as carrier, e.g., a natural gum, such as gum arabic, xanthan gum, agar, sodium alginate, pectin, methyl cellulose, carboxymethylcellulose, polyvinyl alcohol.
