Abstract:
BACKGROUND:Vascular smooth muscle is the main cell component of constructing vascular wall tissue structure and maintaining vascular tension.Studies have shown that smooth muscle progenitor cells obtained from peripheral blood can differentiate into vascular smooth muscle cells.OBJECTIVE:To compare smooth muscle progenitor cells dedved from human peripheral blood with mature vessel wall smooth muscle cells in cell morphology and proliferation potential.DESIGN,TIME AND SETTING:Cell culture and observation trials were performed at the Key Laboratory of Molecular Medicine in Jiangxi province from October 2008 to April 2009.MATERIALS:Peripheral blood 20mL were adopted from 6 healthy volunteers,and great saphenous vein were sourced from 6 patients with varicose vein.METHODS:Mononuclear cells were isolated from human peripheral blood and cultured in fibronectin,platelet derived growth factor-BB and EGM-2 medium.At the same time,the smooth muscle cells were obtained from great saphenous vein with the collagenase digestion method.High-glucose DMEM medium was used for the culture.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES:Cellular morphology;Cellular immumofluorescence method and RT-PCR method were used to detect the expression of α-SMA and calponinl.MTT method was used to analyze the proliferation activity.RESULTS:The smooth muscle progenitor cells denved from human peripheral blood exhibited biological characteristics of vascular smooth musc Je cells.they were found to express α-SMA and calponin1.The proliferation activity of smooth muscle progenitor cells was also greater than vascular smooth muscle cells.CONCLUSlON:Peripheral blood mononuclear cells in the stimulus of platelet-derived growth factor can differentiate into smooth muscle progenitor cells.Compared to smooth muscle cells,smooth muscle progenitor cells proliferate better,and are not easy to age in a long time of cultivation.Smooth muscle progenitor cells are a ideal ceil source of tissue engineered vessel.
