不同浓度5-溴脱氧尿嘧啶核苷标记山羊骨髓基质干细胞的体外研究

Objective To explore the feasibility of labeling and tracing in vitro goat bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) by bromodeoxyuridine (BrdU) on the basis of investigation of its optimal concentration, incubating time and cytotoxicity. Methods A healthy goat, aged 10 months old, male, weighing 32 kg, was used in this study. Bone marrow was aspirated. BMSCs were isolated and cultured using the adherence method in vitro. The fourth passage of BMSCs (P4) were incubated with BrdU at 5, 10, 15, 20 μmol/L as 5, 10, 15, 20 μmol/L BMSC groups. Cells were not labeled by BrdU as negative control. The following parameters were measured: induction, differentiation and determination of goat BMSCs; the optimal mass concentration and incubation time of 5-BrdU labeling; cell positive rate at 12, 24, 48 and 72 hours in each group using immunofluoreseenee; the cell survival rate after various concentrations of BrdU ladling by trypan-blue exclusion. Results The morphology of the primary and passage goat BMSCs was fusiform in shape. Goat BMSCs could differentiate into osteoblasts and chondrocytes following induction. BMSC nucleus showed green fluorescence under fluorescence microscope after being labeled by BrdU. The mean labeling rate increased with the increase in the concentration and incubation time of BrdU, and reached to (93.32± 3.25)% after incubation in 15 μmol/L, BrdU for 48 hours. There were no significant differences between 15 μmol/L BrdU for 72 hours, 20 μmol/L BrdU for 48 hours and 72 hours (P > 0.05), or between the other groups or time points (P < 0.05). The labeling rate of the blank control group was 0. The cell survival rate was all above 90% (P > 0.05). Conclusions BrdU can be used as a labeling marker for goat BMSCs. When the concentration is 15 μmol/L and the incubation time is 48 hours, the optimal labeling effect can be achieved. Goat BMSCs labeled with BrdU is of high efficiency and safety.

Iododeoxyuridine uptake in proliferating smooth muscle cells: an in vitro model to assess drug effects on intimal hyperplasia

Purpose To assess the maximum uptake of Iododeoxyuridine (IUdR) by proliferating smooth muscle cells in vitro to determine the optimal concentration to be administrated in an in vivo experiment. The long-term goal is to utilize radioactive IUdR to inhibit smooth muscle cell proliferation and restenosis of arteries after balloon angioplasty in vivo. Methods Porcine smooth muscle cells (SMCs) were cultured in 5% FBS medium and stimulated to proliferate by the addition of medium containing 10% FBS and insulin. IUdR was added at 5 μM, 10 μM, 20 μM, 30 μM, 40 μM, respectively, in proliferating SMCs with control for 1, 3, 5, 7 day incubation. Fluorescence Activated Cell Scanning (FACS) was performed after the SMCs were harvested and double-stained with FITC-conjugated anti-IUdR antibody (B44) and propidium iodide (PI). The ratio of IUdR-labeled cells to total cell population for each IUdR concentration and duration was determined by FACS. All data were repeated three times at each time point. The doubling times, growth curve and cell density of the proliferating SMCs were investigated using Beckman Coulter Particle Counter and digital microscopy. Results The percentage of proliferating SMCs uptaking IUdR increased from 1 to 5 days incubation with all concentrations of IUdR; In day 5, the uptake rate reached the peak value, then decreased by 7 days. IUdR uptake on day 5 was higher with concentrations of 10 μM and 20 μM. The doubling times of the SMCs were prolonged with IUdR concentration increasing, while the proliferating cell number and density compared with control decreased obviously by day 5 (P~0.05). Conclusion The peaktime to uptake IUdR was 5 days and optimal concentration of IUdR was betweenl0 μM to 20 μM for proliferating SMCs to uptake in vitro. IUdR itself could inhibit the SMCs““ proliferation and the inhibitory effect was related to the concentration.     

In vivo tracing of superparamagnetic iron oxide-labeled bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells transplanted for traumatic brain injury by susceptibility weighted imaging in a rat model

Objective：To label rat bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells （BMSCs） with superparamagnetic iron oxide （SPIO） in vitro, and to monitor the survival and location of these labeled BMSCs in a rat model of traumatic brain injury （TBI） by susceptibility weighted imaging （SWI）sequence.Methods：BMSCs were cultured in vitro and then labeled with SPIO. Totally 24 male Sprague Dawley （SD） rats weighing 200-250 g were randomly divided into 4 groups： Groups A-D （n=6 for each group）. Moderate TBI models of all the rats were developed in the left hemisphere following Feeney＇s method. Group A was the experimental group and stereotaxic transplantation of BMSCs labeled with SPIO into the region nearby the contusion was conducted in this group 24 hours after TBI modeling. The other three groups were control groups with transplantation of SPIO, unlabeled BMSCs and injection of nutrient solution respectively conducted in Groups B, C and D at the same time. Monitoring of these SPIO-labeled BMSCs by SWI was performed one day,one week and three weeks after implantation.Results： Numerous BMSCs were successfully labeled with SPIO. They were positive for Prussian blue staining and intracytoplasm positive blue stained particles were found under a microscope （×200）. Scattered little iron particles were observed in the vesicles by electron microscopy （×5000）. MRI of the transplantation sites of the left hemisphere demonstrated a low signal intensity on magnitude images,phase images and SWI images for all the test rats in Group A, and the lesion in the left parietal cortex demonstrated a semicircular low intensity on SWI images, which clearly showed the distribution and migration of BMSCs in the first and third weeks. For Group B, a low signal intensity by MRI was only observed on the first day but undetected during the following examination. No signals were observed in Groups C and D at any time points.Conclusion：SWI sequence in vivo can consecutively and noninvasively trace and demonstrate the status and distribution of BMSCs labeled with SPIO in the brain of TBI model rats.
