Abstract:
To investigate the behavior of meniscal fibrocartilage cells in vitro ,human meniscal fibrocartilage cells were harvested from adolescents and sequentially digestied with 0 50% trypsin and 0 2% collagenase (type2). The isolated cells were cultured in Ham'sF 12 medium and identified by histochemical methods. Cell proliferation, morphology and ultrastructure were observed by phase contrast microscope and electronic microscope. In primarily cultured cells, fusiform cells dominated and they were confirmed by the positive result of immunohistochemical examination for type collagen staining. Our results indicate that it is a simple and highly effective method.
