Detailed Description
Objectives This study will be conducted to investigate the effects of Mesenchymal stem cells (MSC) transfusion on diabetic peripheral neuropathy in diabetic patient. (MSCs) have been reported to secrete various cytokines that exhibit angiogenic and neuro supportive effects.
Study Design Experimental interventional study. phase II clinical trial
Ethical committee approval (was it ethically approved by the department) Internal medicine department Yes
Study Methods
Population of study & disease condition (e.g women with hepatitis, ………) Diabetic patients(type I, type II) with documented peripheral neuropathy as determined by impaired nerve conduction
Inclusion criteria:
(Type I, type II) diabetic patients age range (18-45) years, with diabetic peripheral neuropathy proved by clinical assessment and nerve conduction who did not receive treatment for diabetic peripheral neuropathy.
Exclusion criteria:
Decompensated cardiac, renal or liver disease. Associated autoimmune diseases Associated endocrinal diseases Pregnancy, usage of contraceptive pills or steroids.
Methodology in details The study will be conducted on patients with diabetic peripheral neuropathy collected from internal medicine department(inpatient and out patients, males and females)
All subjects of this study will be submitted to the following :( preparatory visit before (MSCs) transfusion visit.)
- Thorough clinical assessment as a general assessment of the patient, also assessment of diabetes complications especially diabetic neuropathy. This is including full history and examinations (e.g., pain, sensory loss, ulcers, sensory level, etc….) this preparatory assessment will be done at internal medicine department.
- Venous blood will be drawn in the morning after an overnight fast in the pre (MSCs) transfusion visit.
Plasma biochemical blood measurements will be determined by standard laboratory procedures in the central lab at clinical pathology department, Kasr Alaini hospital)
- Fasting blood glucose level, 2 hours postprandial.
- C-peptide.
- Hb A1C.
- Basic Fibroblast Growth Factor (bFGF), vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) by ELISA.
- Complete blood picture.
- Liver functions in the form of ALT, AST
Kidney functions in the form of serum creatinine.
- fundus examination
- Nerve conduction study at neurophysiology unit.
- Bone marrow aspiration of about 90 ml under local anesthesia once at the first visit after preparatory visit mentioned before, the patient will be admitted for 12 hours and will be monitored closely to avoid anaphylaxis (by steroids, anti-allergic treatment), if no complication, will be discharged.
To avoid infection: During bone marrow aspiration, procedure will be done under complete aseptic precautions, placed in sterile tubes containing pre-servative-free heparin (Sigma-Aldrich, St. Louis, USA) Separation and processing of the sample will be done under good manufacture procedure (GMP): Bone Marrow Aspirate (BMA) will be withdrawn under good sterilization of the skin in an isolated area. Processing of the sample will be done in the laminar air flow; all supplies are disposable and sterile.
Technique:
Separation of mononuclear cells:
The bone marrow aspirate will be diluted at a ratio of 6:1 with phosphate buffer saline (PBS) with 2 mM EDTA (30 ml BM aspirate+ 5 ml PBS/EDTA buffer). The MNCs will be separated under aseptic conditions using a Ficoll. Hypaque desity gradient (density 1.077, GibcoBRL, Grand Islan, NY, USA) by centrifugation at 1800 rpm for 20 min then the MNCs will be plated in 40 ml alpha-modi-field Eagle's medium (αMEM), serum free media; mesencult(Mesenchymal stem cell culture),penicillin (100 U/ml),streptomycin(10 mg/ml),0.5 ml amphotericin B(all from Gibco BRL) and 10 ng/ml basic fibroblast growth factor (b-FGF) (R&D system, Minneapolis, MN) and will be incubated at 370 c in a humidified atmosphere containing 5% CO2 (Digirolamo et al.1999).after one day ,non adherent cells will be cultured in the presence of Mesenchymal media for 3 weeks changed every 1 week (cambrex Bioscience ,Nottingham, uk). After reaching 80% confluence the MSCs will be placed in 10 ml saline and will be infused intravenously
Flow cytometry Surface expression of MSCs using anti- (CD271, CD34, CD73, CD90, CD105, CD29) monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) will be analyzed using flow cytometry. MSCs (2X105 cells) will be suspended in PBS containing 1% BSA and will be stained with flurochrome -conjugated mAbs for 20 minutes on ice (anti-mouse mAanti-CD 271, CD34 CD73, CD90, CD105,CD29; BD Bioscience, MN, USA).flow cytometric analysis will be performed using a FACSCaliber (BD bioscience)equipped with cell Quest software.10000 cells will be passed in front of the laser for each sample. Each sample will be analyzed in duplicate. A cut off value at 20% will be set to categorize samples as positive.
Mesenchymal stem cells will be identified by morphology and immunophenotyping in the central lab at clinical pathology department, Kasr Alaini hospital( stem cell lab).
Mesenchymal stem cells transfusion slowly intravenous will be applied after these procedures for the patients after taking their approval and informed consent.
Follow up 3 months after Mesenchymal stem cells transfusion by fasting blood glucose level, 2 hours postprandial, C-peptide, Hb A1C, (bFGF), (VEGF) and nerve conduction at kasr Alaini hospital departments as mentioned before.
Possible Risk (mention if there is any risk or not) Anaphylaxis Infection
Primary outcomes (Most important outcomes to be assessed)
1- Effect of mesenchymal stem cells transfusion on diabetic peripheral neuropathy regarding improvement of clinical symptoms like pain, sensory loss and improvement of nerve conduction.
Secondary outcome parameters (other outcomes to be assessed)
- Mesenchymal stem cells being a treatment modality in diabetes complications like peripheral neuropathy, to avoid hazards on patients secondary to diabetic peripheral neuropathy.
- Improving of diabetic condition like lowering of blood glucose level, decrease in insulin requirements and improvement of general condition.
Sample size (number of participants included) 10 diabetic patients with diabetic peripheral neuropathy .
Source of funding (is there any source of funds or not) Faculty Of Medicine, Cairo University.
Time plan (when to start/ when expected to finish/ when to publish) At least 20 months
