本文提出了一种人类牙髓干细胞分离和繁殖的方案, 以评估神经元分化过程中的 prion 蛋白表达。
与操纵胚胎干细胞有关的生物伦理问题阻碍了医学研究领域的进展。因此, 从脂肪、脐带、骨髓和血液等不同组织中获得成人干细胞是非常重要的。在可能的来源中, 牙髓特别有趣, 因为在生物伦理方面很容易获得。事实上, 人类牙髓干细胞 (Hdpsc) 是一种成人干细胞, 能够在神经元样细胞中进行分化, 可以从健康患者 (13-19) 的第三磨牙中获得。特别是, 牙髓被删除与挖掘机, 切成小片, 治疗胶原酶 IV 和培养在一个烧瓶。为诱导神经元分化, 用 Egf/bfgf 对 Hdpsc 进行了2周的刺激。此前, 我们已经证明, 在分化过程中, hDPSCs 中细胞蛋白 (prpc) 的含量增加。细胞荧光分析显示, 在神经元分化过程中, Prpc的早期表达增加。siRNA PrP 消融 PrP可防止 Egf/bfgf 诱导的神经元分化。本文说明, 随着我们通过几个简单的程序加强了 hDPSCs 的分离、分离和体外培养方法, 获得了更有效的细胞克隆, 并大规模扩展了间充质干细胞 (mscs)。被观察到。我们还展示了用协议中详细介绍的方法获得的 hDPSCs 是研究骨髓间充质干细胞神经元分化过程以及随后的细胞和分子过程的一个很好的实验模型。
间充质干细胞已从几个组织中分离出来, 包括骨髓、脐带血、人牙髓、脂肪组织和血液1、2、 3、4、5,6. 正如一些作者所报告的, hDPSCs 显示出塑料粘附, 这是一种典型的成纤维细胞样形态。这些代表了一个高度异质的群体与独特的克隆和差异的增殖和分化能力7,8。Hdpsc 表达间充质干细胞的特定标记物 (即 CD44、CD90、CD73、CD105、STRO-1), 对某些造血标志物 (如 CD14 和 CD19) 呈阴性, 并能够在体外多系分化9, 10,11。
一些作者已经证明, 这些细胞能够分化为神经元样的细胞使用不同的协议, 其中包括添加 ngf, bfgf, egf 结合特定的媒体和补充7,12.此外, 许多蛋白质参与神经元分化过程中, 其中一些论文显示了相关的作用和重要的表达细胞 prion 蛋白 (Prpc), 无论是在胚胎和成人干细胞13,14. prpc是一种多向异性分子, 能够在细胞内发挥不同的功能, 如铜代谢、凋亡和抗氧化应激 15、16、17,18,19,20,21,22岁
在前面的论文23中, 我们研究了 Prpc在 Hdpsc 神经元分化过程中的作用。事实上, Hdpsc 在早熟的情况下表达 Prpc, 在神经元分化后, 有可能观察到额外的增加.其他作者推测Prpc在干细胞神经元分化过程中可能起到的作用。事实上, Prpc 推动人类胚胎干细胞分化为神经元、少突胶质细胞和星形胶质细胞24.本研究的目的是强调牙髓干细胞的获取方法、分化过程以及 Prpc 在神经元分化中的作用.
在这项工作中, 我们集中在分离和神经元分化的方法 hDPSCs;此外, 我们还评估了 Prpc在这一过程中的作用。有几种方法可以分离和区分神经元样细胞中的 Hdpsc, 也有几个方法可以在此过程中采取关键步骤。Hdpsc 能够在几个谱系中进行分化, 如软骨细胞、脂肪细胞、成骨细胞和神经元。本文研究了神经元分化的机制和 Prpc 的存在.如上文所述, 这些细胞表达典型的间充质结构特异性表面抗…
