Objective. To investigate the curative effects of HUC-MSCs combined with USW on spinal cord injury (SCI) and the effects on inflammatory microenvironment and to explore the regulatory mechanisms of MK2/TTP signalling pathway and NLRP3 inflammasome. Methods. The SCI rat model was established using the modified Allen method; rats were administered with USW, HUC-MSCs, and combination therapy of USW and HUC-MSCs; the therapeutic efficacies in each group of rats were monitored and represented in BBB score. SCI levels were observed using HE staining and IF. The microglia polarisation state and released contents of inflammatory factors were detected. IF and Western Blotting were performed on to detect the expression levels of MK2/TTP signalling pathway and NLRP3 inflammasome-related proteins. Furthermore, the regulatory mechanisms of MK2/TTP pathway and NLRP3 were explored by performing on the in vitro study. Results. Combination therapy of USW and HUC-MSCs was found of significant ef ficacy on improving motor functions of SCI rats, and it was further proved that this combination therapy can reduce spinal cord injury in SCI rats, of which USW plays a more important role. While transplantation of HUC-MSCs can promote microglial cells developing to SCI repair, and M2 microglial cells were taking advantages gradually. The combination therapy can inhibit the expression of MK2; downregulate NLRP3 inflammasome; suppress the expression levels of pro-caspase-1, pro-IL-1β, and pro-IL-18; and simultaneously suppress the release of IL-1β and IL-18, thereby reducing spinal cord neurons apoptosis. It was found that the steady state of microglial polarisation maintained by combined treatment of USW and HUC-MSCs was destroyed with the upregulation of MK2 expression in cells, of which, M1 type microglial cell was dominant and the increased contents of inflammatory factors were detected. However, overexpressed MK2 relieved the inhibition of NLRP3 expression by TTP. Conclusions. Combination therapy of USW and HUC-MSCs can downregulate NLRP3 expression, relieve inflammatory responses, improve immune microenvironment, and rescue spinal cord injury via suppressing phosphorylation level of MK2.
