人脐血基质细胞自发分泌多种造血生长因子的实验研究

目的探讨体外培养的人脐血基质细胞分泌血小板生成素(thrombopoietin,TPO)、粒-巨噬细胞集落刺激因子(granulocyte-macrophage colony stimulating factor,GM-CSF)、干细胞生长因子(stem cell factor,SCF)的能力.方法留取不同培养时相点的培养液上清,ELISA法检测上清中TPO、GM-CSF、SCF的浓度,并与骨髓基质细胞的培养上清液对照比较其特点.结果人脐血基质细胞和骨髓基质细胞均可分泌TPO、GM-CSF和SCF等造血生长因子,二者造血生长因子的分泌随着培养时间的延长而逐渐下降,其中人脐血基质细胞分泌TPO和SCF的高峰期出现在第7天,而GM-CSF的分泌则无高峰期的出现;通过与骨髓基质细胞分泌三种造血生长因子量进行对比发现,人脐血基质细胞SCF和GM-CSF的分泌量低于骨髓基质细胞,而TPO的分泌高于同期培养的骨髓基质细胞.结论人脐血基质细胞与骨髓基质细胞一样具有分泌造血生长因子,支持调控造血的作用.

Multiple types of hematopoietic growth factors secreted spontaneously by human umbilical cord blood stromal cells in vitro

Objective To investigate the potential of stromal cells from human umbilical cord blood cultured in vitro to secrete hematopoietic growth factors. Methods The expressions of hematopoietic growth factors of stromal cells from human umbilical cord blood and bone marrow were detected by ELISA kits at different time points. Results Stromal cells from human umbilical cord blood could secrete thrombopoietin (TPO), granulocyte-macrophage colony stimulating factor (GM-CSF) and stem cell factor (SCF). The peak levels of TPO and SCF were found at 7 d after culture in vitro, but then the levels of these factors decreased gradually. Stromal cells from human umbilical cord blood secreted more SCF and GM-SCF, but less TPO than human bone marrow stromal cells. Conclusion Our results demonstrate that stromal cells from human umbilical cord blood could sustain hematopoiesis by secreting multiple types of hematopoietic growth factors such as TPO, GM-CSF, and SCF.
