- Abstract: BACKGROUND:Chronic rotator cuff injury is often companied by tendon degeneration and impaired function of tendon-derived stem cells.As am important cytokine,platelet-derived growth factor-DD has a regulatory effect on the proliferation and differentiation of tendon-derived stem cells.OBJECTIVE:To investigate the effect of platelet-derived growth factor-DD on the proliferation and multilineage differentiation of tendon-derived stem cells in human chronic rotator cuff injury.METHODS:Tendon-derived stem cells were isolated from human chronic rotator cuff injury tissue and cultured in vitro.Immunofluorescence staining was used to observe the cytoskeletal morphology of tendon-derived stem cells.Flow cytometry was used to identify the phenotype of tendon-derived stem cells.Tendon-derived stem cells were divided into two groups.The control group did not receive any intervention.The platelet-derived growth factor-DD group was treated with 5 μg/mL platelet-derived growth factor-DD.The effect of platelet-derived growth factor-DD on the proliferation and multilineage differentiation of tendon-derived stem cells was evaluated by cell proliferation assay and three-lineage differentiation assay.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)The number of EdU-positive cells in the platelet-derived growth factor-DD group was significantly increased compared with the control group(P<0.05).Tendon-derived stem cells entered the rapid proliferation phase earlier,and the cell growth was logarithmic.(2)The positive areas of Oil Red O staining,Alcian Blue staining,and Alizarin Red staining in the platelet-derived growth factor-DD group were significantly larger than those in the control group(P<0.05).(3)The above results show that platelet-derived growth factor-DD significantly promotes the proliferation and adipogenic,osteogenic,and chondrogenic differentiation of tendon-derived stem cells.
