Abstract:
Objective To investigate the effects of exogenous osteopontin (OPN ) the migration of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells(MSCs) in mice .Methods Using the OPN -/- and wild-type C57 mice ,the MSCs were isolated and cultured .These cells were analysed and sorted by flow cytometry .Then ,Transwell migration assay detected whether OPN can induce the migration of these MSCs .Finally ,the method of Western blot was used to detect the changes of expression of OPN ,CD44 and Integrinβ1 pro-teins .Results The morphology and features of MSCs were proved correctly on 3 passages ,which these cells expressed the proteins of CD44 and CD105 ,but not CD34 .The surface marker antigens were accorded with the general features of MSCs .Compared with OPN -/- mice ,the MSCs significantly increased cell migration in groups of 0 .5 μg/mL OPN and wild type C57 mice ,which was positively related to the times using OPN .Using recombinant OPN protein(0 .5μg/mL) ,expression of related proteins was signifi-cantly increased ,but still lower than the group of wild type mice (P<0 .01) .Compared with OPN -/- mice ,expression of OPN , CD44 ,and Integrinβ1 protein increased significantly different (P<0 .01) in groups of 0 .5 μg/mL OPN and wild type C57 mice . Conclusion OPN can up-regulate the expression of CD44 and Integrinβ1 proteins and promote MSCs migration .
