Abstract:
Objective: To investigate the possible effects of Pancreatic duodenal homeobox-1((Pdx-1))expression in transdifferentiation of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells(MSC) in vitro. Methods: The eukaryotic expression vector containing Pdx-1 was constructed.After such vector was transfected into MSC using Superfect,G418 was used to select the positive cells.Then both(Pdx-1~(+)MSC)and((Pdx-1~-MSC)) were induced to transdifferentiate in vitro.The expressions of insulin were analyzed by immunohistochemistry staining. Results: Restricted enzyme analysis and sequencing showed that interest gene segment was consistent with that in Gen Bank,Recombination vector was effectively transformed into MSC demonstrated by fluorescence microscope;insulin-producing cells from Pdx-1~(+)MSC were higher than that from Pdx-1~(-)MSC[(28.23?2.56)% and(7.08?2.69)%,respectively]. Conclusion:Pdx-1 can promote adult rat MSC to transdifferentiate into insulin-producing cells in vitro,and this approach might lead to a widespread cell replacement therapy for type I diabetes.
