Abstract:
Objective To isolate and culture the hair follicle Bulge cells of rats and study their morphological, immunological characteristics. Methods Hair follicle Bulge obtained by micromanipulation and enzyme digestion was cultured in intro. The morphological features and numbers of Bulge cells were identified and counted with light microscopy. Immunocytochemical staining was used to detect expressing of K19 and ?_ 1integrin in cultured cells. Results Bulge cells after enzyme digestion pasted rapidly. Cells were small and round, paving stone-shape, and had a large ratio of nuclear to cytoplasm. The characteristics suggested a primitive morphologic feature. Cells growth well and could maintain low differentiation and higher reproductive activity, they co-expressing K19 and ?_ 1integrin, immunofluorescence staining showed the cells expressed ?6-integrin strongly, weakly or no expressing CD71. Conclusion This culture system can amplify a lot of pure hair follicle Bulge cells in short time. We successfully isolate and culture the hair follicle Bulge cells of rats in intro and can keeping its property for a long time.
