Abstract:
Objective To observe the effects of differentiation of mature islet cells of mice on marrowmesenchymal stem cells (mMSCs). To provide transplant source for islet cell transplantation in the treatment of diabetes. Methods The culture, isolation and passage of mMSCs was performed by using patch wall, cell shape was observed by confocal microscope, and flow cytometry analysis was used to determine their biological characteristics. The type Ⅳ collagenase was injected into common bile duct to digest the pancreas, and then gradient centrifugation was used to isolate islet cells. The transwell co-culture system was used for third generation of mMSCs and isolated islet cells, then inversion microscope was used to observe the cell growth and morphological changes, immunochemistry methods was applied to detect the expression of insulin in mMSCs, and insulin release test was performed to determine the secretion of insulin. The control group consisted of cultured mMSCs alone. Results The cells from mouse bone marrow were found to be in long spindle shape with large volume after 48 hours in culture. One week later the cells grew in the form of colony with serial subcultivation. The cell surface molecules including Sca-l, CD29, CD44, CD105 were positive with high level of expression;while the cell surface molecules including CD34, CD45 were negative, all of these results confirmed that the ceils were mMSCs. After 7 days of coculture with mice islet cells, part of mMSCs cells were positively stained by insulin immunohistochemisty, the insulin secretion was (16.83±0. 15)μIU/ml.Conclusions After cocultured with islet cells, mMSCs isolated from mouse bone marrow could differentiate into islet like cells. These cells may be used in the islet cells transplantation in the treatment of diabetes, which provided a solution to the problems of donor-shortage and immunologic rejection.
