Objective To investigate the role of BMSCg on enhancing the implant survival and bacheal epithelium regeneration. Methods After transplanted with cryopreserved 2 weeks and 6 weeks allocraft, PHK-26 labeled 3-5 passage BMSCs were injected into the recipient rats via tail vein. Rats in the control groups were injected with the same amount of PBS.We observed the histology of the transplanted trachea including epithelium growth and regeneration, and the PKH-26 fluorescence levels at the para-anastomotic trachea to evaluate the role of BMSC transplantation on the epithelium regeneration. Results Rats from BMSCs injection group survived a long period. Histological observation showed that the tracheal lumen was covered by psudo-striated ciliated columnar epithelium. The cartilage structure was intact. There are no signs of denaturation and necrosis. In the PBS injection group, epithelium regeneration is better in PBS-6-week group than PBS-2-week group. The longest survival time in PBS-6-week group was 32 days, whereas it was 10 days in PBS-2-week group. In BMSCs injection group, rats in BMSC-6-week groups survived longer than 8-week group(12 rats were terminated at 1 week, 4 weeks and 8weeks as planned). There was one rat who survived and were terminated at the designated 8 weeks time point (there were 8regenerated epithelium was similar in the two BMSC transplanted groups. PKH-26 labeled BMSCs migrated to the implant site and showed red fluorescence, with most red fluorescence shown at the anastomotic part. Conclusion BMSCs can migrate to the impaired tissue to repair it. BMSCs may exert their reparation function via enhancing epithelium regeneration.
