Abstract:
BACKGROUND:Although the methods of mechanical scrapping,tissue block transplantation,and enzyme digestion to culture endothelial cells have been quite mature,it has been constantly updated.OBJECTIVE:To explore the culture and identification of rabbit aortic endothelial cells.METHODS:Aorta was derived from one-week-old New Zealand rabbit.Following removing the adventitia,the endothelium was digested in the mixture of 2 g/L type Ⅰ collagen,2 9/L type Ⅱ collagen,2 g/L type Ⅳ collagen,and 2 g/L type Ⅴ collagen (1:1:1:1)for 20 minutes,and the digestionwas stopped with culturemedium(1:1).Cells in the endothelium were lightly scraped to make cell suspension,which was centrifuged to precipitate cells with DMEM culture medium containing 20%fetal bovine serum,1 μg/L VEGF,2 μg/L bFGF,and 6 U/L gentamicin.The cells were then blown into single cells and the culture liquid was changed every 48 hours.The cells were passaged according to the ratio of 1:2.Inverted phase contrast microscope was used to observe cell culture;immunohistochemistry and immunofluorescence were used to determine Ⅷ-related antigen;electron microscope was used to detect Weibel-Paladed body.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Ⅷ-related antigen and electron microscopy confirmed that the primary and 5-passage endothelial cells were successfully cultured,suggesting that rabbit aortic endothelial cells were cultured into cell line.Ⅷ-related antigen and electron microscopy determined that a combination with W-P body was a good method to determine endothelial cells.
