Abstract:
Objective To isolate and identify pancreatic stem cells of Kunming mouse and to observe the differentiation potency of those cells. Methods Pancreas of postnatal Kunming mice were digested by enzymes to isolate pancreatic stem cells. The potency of the cell differentiation was then identified with special marker of cytokeratin 19(CK 19), insulin and glucagons by immunocytochemical staining. Results Few epithelioid cells could be found to survive at the beginning of isolation, but when medium was replaced by that with growth factor, the cells proliferated quickly in fusiform shape and formed colony gradually. The cells were CK 19 immunoreactive positive after transfer of culture. After differentiation induced by high glucose, the cells formed the pancreatic islet like structures. Immunocytochemical staining showed that part of the cells of pancreatic islet like structures were insulin immunoreactive positive and few of the cells were glucagon immunoreactive positive. Conclusion Pancreatic stem cells of Kumming mouse can proliferate when cultured in vitro and have the potency of differentiation into ? and? cells of pancreatic islet.
