昆明鼠胚胎干细胞系的建立及其特性

背景:到目前为止,国际上通用的动物胚胎干细胞细胞系大多是从129品系和C57BL/6系小鼠中获得的,少部分来自BALB/C系,来自于中国昆明鼠则鲜有报道.目的:分离培养昆明系小鼠胚胎干细胞,并对其生物学特性进行初步鉴定.设计、时间及地点:以细胞为对象的观察性实验,于2006-05/2007-06在南昌大学第一附属医院泌尿外科研究所完成.材料:昆明小鼠3.5 d胚龄的囊胚.方法:自昆明系小鼠3.5 d胚龄的囊胚分离内细胞团细胞,接种于小鼠原代胚胎成纤维细胞饲养层上,对分离的内细胞团细胞进行扩增、传代培养.主要观察指标:观察胚胎干细胞集落的生长情况,对其碱性磷酸酶表达进行染色分析,采用免疫荧光法检测其阶段特异性胚胎抗原1表达,以反转录-聚合酶链反应检测其特异性表达因子c-Myc,Nanog,Oct3/4和Sox2的基因表达情况,并对其体内外分化能力对进行鉴定分析.结果:分离、培养自内细胞团的细胞呈典型的胚胎干细胞集落样生长,碱性磷酸酶染色及阶段特异性胚胎抗原1荧光染色阳性,细胞表达c-Myc,Nanog,Oct3/4和Sox2等基因,细胞在体内外均能分化成来源于不同胚层的多种细胞类型.结论:成功从昆明小鼠囊胚中分离并建立一株胚胎干细胞系,其生物学特性与其他胚胎干细胞株相符.

Establishment and characteristics of embryonic stem cells lines from Kunming mice

BACKGROUND:Up to date,inbred embryonic stem cells(ESCs) line mainly derived from 129 mouse strain and C57BL/6 strain,occasionally from BALB/c mouse strain,however,few reports concerning ESCs lines derived from Ch inese Kunmingmouse strain.OBJECTIVE:To isolate and culture mouse ESCs of kunming species,additionally,to identify its biological properties.DESIGN,TIME AND SETTING:The experiment with cells as observed subjects was conducted in the institute of Urology,First Affiliated Hospital of Nanchang University from May 2006 to June 2007.MATERIALS:Blastocysts of Kunmin mice with 3.5 days of embryonic age.METHODS:Inner cell mass from 3.5 days embryonic age were isolated from Kunming species mice,cultured on feeder layers of primary mice embryonic fibroblasts,and then the cells were isolated and subsequently cultured.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES:Colony growth was observed and determined by alkaline phosphatase (AKP) staining;The expression of stage-specific embryonic antigen (SSEA)-1,and cell specific genes of c-Myc,Nanog,Oct3/4 and Sox2 were measured by immunofluorescence and RT-PCR;finally,the ability of differentiation in vitro and in vivo was identified.RESULTS:The ESCs-like colonies presented typical morphological characteristics of ESCs,which was positive to AKP and SSEA-1,and could express several cell specific genes,such as c-Myc,Nanog,Oct3/4 and Sox2,and differentiate into various cell types in vitro and in vivo.CONCLUSION:An ESCs line is successfully dedved from Kunming mice,which has typical biological characteristics of ESCs.
