骨髓间充质干细胞分化的成骨细胞支持脐血造血干祖细胞的研究

本研究利用骨髓间充质干细胞诱导分化的成骨细胞构建二维培养体系,探讨其体外支持脐血干/祖细胞生存的作用.体外进行人骨髓间充质干细胞（MSC）原代培养后诱导为成骨细胞,构建二维培养体系.将免疫磁珠分选的CD34^＋脐血干/祖细胞接种于其中,在无外源性细胞因子情况下进行体外培养,进行CFU,HPP-CFU和LTC-IC测定并将其分别与MSC、成骨细胞,MSC/成骨细胞（1：2）作为饲养细胞的二维培养体系实验结果相比较.结果发现：在所构建的造血干/祖细胞（HSPC）二维培养体系中,骨髓MSC诱导成骨细胞对于脐血造血干/祖细胞培养的支持作用显著优于其他各组培养体系,尤其对长期造血干细胞（long term-HSC）体外生存有更为明显地支持作用.结论：骨髓间充质干细胞诱导成骨细胞构建的二维体系对于脐血干/祖细胞体外培养具有支持作用,进一步证实成骨细胞对造血干细胞生存与增殖具有重要调控作用.

Osteoblasts Differentiated from Human Marrow Bone Mesenchymal Stem Cells Support Hematopoietic Stem/Progenitor Cells from Umbilical Cord Blood

This study was aimed to construct a two-demensional culture system by using osteoblasts induced from human marrow mesenchymal stem cells (MSC) and to investigate its support effect on survival of hematopoietic stem/progenitor cells for umbilical cord blood (UCB) ex vivo. MSCs were isolated from adult human bone marrow and were cultured, the second generation of MSCs were induced into osteoblasts which were irradiated with 20 Gy gamma rays in a Cobalt 60 source and confluenced into a feeder layer. CD34~+ cells were selected from fresh umbilical cord blood samples by using Microbead Kit of MiniMACS and seeded into the two-dimensional culture system to culture ex vivo without exogenous cytokines. By using colony-forming assay, high proliferative potential colony-forming cell assay, and long-term culture initiating cell assay, the ability of the two-dimensional system to culture HSCs/HPCs was observed. The results showed that the osteoblasts induced from bone marrow MSC in constructed two-demensional culture system displayed more significant support effect on survival of hematopoietic stem/progenitor cells from umbilical cord blood (UCB) ex vivo, compared with other culture systems, especially on long term HSCs survival ex vivo. It is concluded that the two-dimensional culture system constituted by osteoblasts induced from human MSCs has certain ability of supporting maintenance and multipotency of HSCs/HPCs from umbilical cord blood in vitro, especially sustaining survival of HSC in long-term culture. It has also been proved that osteoblasts play a crucial role in regulation of HSC growth.
