摘要：To explore the protective effects of 1,25-dihydroxy vitamin D3 (1,25-(OH)₂D₃) on the bone marrow microenvironment in mice after irradiation and the underlying molecular mechanisms, a total of 150 7-wk-old male BALB/c mice were randomly divided into a normal group, an irradiation (IR) group and an irradiation+1,25-(OH)₂D₃ (IR+VD3) group. The mice in the IR+VD3 group were treated with 6.0 Gy ⁶⁰Coγ rays, and 1,25-(OH)₂D₃ (dissolved in DMSO, 2.5 μg/kg) was administered once per day from 2 d before to 8 d after irradiation. Mice in the IR group were treated with the same dose of γ rays and an equal volume of DMSO. Subsequently, the body weights and the numbers of peripheral white blood cells (WBCs) were measured. Histological analysis of femur bone marrow was conducted to determine the proportion of adipose area as well. Finally, the expression of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-gamma (PPARγ) in bone marrow was detected by immunohistochemistry. After irradiation, the percentage of adipose area in the bone marrow was significantly increased, and the WBC number and body weight were markedly reduced. Compared with irradiation alone, the co-administration of 1,25-(OH)₂D₃ with irradiation markedly attenuated radiation-induced adipogenesis in bone marrow, resulted in fewer bone marrow stromal cells expressing PPARγ and enhanced the recovery of body weight and WBCs. These results indicate that 1,25-(OH)₂D₃ could accelerate the recovery of body weight and WBCs in irradiated mice and protect the bone marrow by inhibiting radiation-induced adipogenesis via the down-regulation of PPARγ expression.
