Abstract:
Objective To obtain and identify dendritic cell (DC) from mouse bone marrow in vitro. Methods Recombinant mouse granulocyte and macrophage colony stimulus factor (GM-CSF) induction was used to induce mouse bone marrow cells to form dendritic cells in vitro. The morphological changes were observed with light inverted microscope and scanning electron microscope (SEM). CD11c, MHCⅡ, and CD86 were identified with flow cytometry. The biological function was studied with antigen phagocytosis test and mixed lymphocyte reaction (MLR). Result The cultured DC from mouse bone marrow displayed the typical morphological characteristics of DC. Immature DC, which had high expression in CD11c and low expression in MHCⅡ and CD86, could phagocytize antigen. Mature DC, which had high expression in CD11c, MHCⅡ and CD86, could stimulate allogenic mixed lymphocyte proliferation. Conclusion DC can be generated from mouse bone marrow cells through cytokine induction in vitro and be used for further study associated with DC.
