Abstract:
BACKGROUND: The precartilaginous stern cells are limited regarding in vitro proliferative capacity, but the immortalized cell lines can provide a large number of stable immortalized cells, and simian virus 40 large T antigen gene (SV40Tag) is one of gene fragments which are commonly used and effective in vitro immortalized ceils. OBJECTIVE: To construct human immortalized precartilaginous stem cells (IPSCs) using human precartilaginous stem calls induced by SV40LTAg gane. METHODS: The human immortalized precartilaginous stem calls were isolated from aborted fetus and purified with enzyme digestion and immunomagnetic beads screening method. By using liposome-mediated gene transfection technology, plasmid pCMVSV40T/PUR containing SV40Tag was transfected in primary embryonic precartilaginous stem cells, while non-transfected cells sewed as negative controls. Positive clones were cultured to observe the cell morphology and the passage recovery, to calculate cell survival rata and population doubling time, to drew call growth curve. Immunofluorescence cytochemistry was used to detect the expression of IPSCs fibroblast growth factor receptor 3, the expressions of SV40Tag and fibroblast growth factor receptor 3 in the human precartilaginous stem cells were determined by RT-PCR. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: Morphology of human IPSCs seemed coincidence with primary human precartilaginous stem cells. The survival rate of human IPSCs was not influenced by subculture, freezing and recovery, but the survival rate was descended in the human precartilaginous stem cells at the 6~(th) and 10~(th) passages (P < 0.01). Compared with cells at the 6~(th) and 10~(th) passages, the proliferation of human IPSCs was greater, with short population doubling time and high growth rate (P < 0.01). The immunofluorescence showed that fibroblast growth factor receptor 3 was positive in human IPSCs at the second passage, and the RT-PCR results of fibroblast growth factor receptor 3 revealed a specific amplification band at 400 bp,.while that of SV40Tag revealed at 560 bp. No band was seen in the primary cells. It is indicated that SV40Tag human IPSCs can be constructed successfully using immunomagnatic bead screening technology and liposome transfection technique.
