Abstract:
BACKGROUND:Construction of tissue engineering adult cardiac myocytes has been a new research hotspot in cardiovascular fields.
OBJECTIVE:To explore a simple, fast method for the separation of adult rat cardiomyocytes, and preliminarily explore the construction methods of tissue engineering adult cardiac myocytes.
METHODS:Segmented enzymatic digestion method was used to isolate cardiac myocytes from adult rats. Subsequently, cardiac myocytes were transfected with adenovirus and liposome-mediated red fluorescent protein gene. Construction efficiency of tissue engineering cells was qualified using inverted fluorescence microscopy and flow cytometry. Final y, cardiac myocytes were transfected with adenovirus-mediated hypoxia-inducible factor-1a, and the expression of hypoxia-inducible factor-1a was examined by western blot analysis.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:A lot of cardiac myocytes were col ected using the segmented enzyme digestion method. Flow cytometric analysis showed that the survival of adult cardiomyocytes was (87.03±0.70)%. Compared with liposomal transfection (transfection efficiency was 0), adenovirus infection efficiency was (70.31± 1.39)%, and the cells expressed red fluorescence under fluorescence microscope. After 4 days of adenovirus infection, transfected cells expressed hypoxia-inducible factor-1a protein. These results showed that segmented enzyme digestion is a fast way to isolate adult cardiac myocytes, and recombinant adenovirus vector is a good vector to transfect cardiac myocytes.
