Abstract:
BACKGROUND:Basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) plays an important role in the ligament tissue healing process, and bone marrow mesenchymal stem cel s transfected with growth factors can be used as seed cel s in ligament tissue engineering.
OBJECTIVE:To observe biological effect of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cel s transfected with recombinant adenovirus vectors carrying bFGF in three-dimensional co-culture with ligament fibroblasts.
METHODS:Passage 3 bone marrow mesenchymal stem cel s were divided into three groups:control group, Ad-EGFP group and Ad-bFGF group. Under a phase contrast microscope, the changes in cel morphology were observed and the rate of transfection was analyzed by flow cytometry. Proliferation of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cel s and ligament fibroblasts was analyzed by MTS, the expression of bFGF protein in bone marrow mesenchymal stem cel s was determined by ELISA. Scleraxis, col agen type I, col agen type III, decorin and cartilage oligomeric matrix protein levels were detected in BMSCs and ligament fibroblasts using real-time fluorescent quantitative PCR.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Recombinant adenovirus-mediated bFGF gene could transfect bone marrow mesenchymal stem cel s efficiently. After co-culture for 3, 6 days, compared with the control group and Ad-EGFP group, in the Ad-bFGF group, the proliferation ability of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cel s and ligament fibroblasts was enhanced (P<0.01), the expression of bFGF protein in supernatant was obviously higher (P<0.01), the col agen type I, col agen type III, decorin and cartilage oligomeric matrix protein mRNA expression decreased in the ligament fibroblasts (P<0.01), but the mRNA expression of Scleraxis, col agen type I, col agen type III in bone marrow mesenchymal stem cel s increased (P<0.01). The results suggest that the co-culture of Ad-bFGF-transfected bone marrow mesenchymal stem cel s with ligament fibroblasts promotes the proliferation of ligament fibroblasts while decreases the col agen synthesis at the same time, and stimulates the proliferation and differentiation of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cel s into ligament fibrolasts.
