Abstract:
BACKGROUND:In the process of cardiac stem cel culture in vitro, the growth microenvironment may have some effects on the cel proliferation.
OBJECTIVE:To investigate the possible mechanism of proliferation and migration of rat cardiac stem cel s cultured in vitro.
METHODS:Cardiac tissues from 10 Sprague-Dawley rats were obtained for primary culture and subculture. Passage 3 cel s were col ected for immunofluorescence staining, and stem cel growth factor receptor (c-kit) and CD45, CD90 were detected. Cultured tissues were col ected and randomly divided into two groups:in group 1, paraformaldehyde fixation, paraffin embedding, hematoxylin-eosin staining, Masson staining, and detecting apoptotic cel s using TUNEL method were conducted;in group 2, EdU labeling of proliferated cel s, immunofluorescent detection of c-kit positive expression, matrix metal oproteinases 2, 9 and transforming growth factorβ1 using immunofluorescent staining were done.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:After 7-10 days of myocardial tissue culture, bright and round cel s were visible, and after adhesion, fusiform cel s exhibited strong growth and proliferation ability. Immunofluorescence staining showed a large number of c-kit, CD45 positive cel s but CD90 negative cel s. After culture, a great number of newborn cel s were found, accompanied by apoptosis of myocardial cel s. After EdU staining, the positive cel s were distributed in the myocardial gap, and showed a smal amount of matrix metal oproteinases 2, 9 and transforming growth factorβ1, while in the surrounding myocardium there was a large number of matrix metal oproteinases 2, 9 and transforming growth factorβ1. Taken together, our findings show that cardiac stem cel s could be obtained through myocardial tissue culture in vitro, accompanied by cel proliferation and migration. The mechanism is related to the expression of matrix metal oproteinases 2, 9 and transforming growth factorβ1.
