Abstract:
Objective To construct F344 rat bone marrow mesenchymal stem cell line (MSC) modified with human hepatocyte growth factor (hHGF) gene.Methods Recombinant virus containing hHGF was obtained by transfecting the packaging cell line 293 FT with lentiviral vector pLV/EF1α-hHGF-IRES-eGFP.MSCs derived from F344 rat bone marrow were then tranfected with packed lentiviral vector.Purified MSCs expressing hHGF was obtained by screening culture with G418.MSCs and MSCs transfected with empty vector were used as control.The expression of hHGF protein was detected by Western blot (eGFP-MSCs).The hHGF-transfected MSCs were cultured in osteoblast-inducing culture medium and osteoblast phenotype was assayed by alizarin Red staining.The cells were also cultured in adipogenesis medium and stained with Oil Red O for identification.Results The expression of hHGF protein was significantly up-regulated in the hHGF-MSCs as compared with MSCs and eGFP-MSCs.hHGF-MSCs readily differentiated into mineralizing cells or adipocytes when incubated in differentiation medium.Conclusion A F344 rat MSC line that stably expresses HGF is successfully established.
