Summary

在这里,我们提出了一种经济有效的方法,在用10 ng / mL GM-CSF / IL-4培养7天后从小鼠中分离和产生高纯度骨髓来源的树突状细胞。

Abstract

随着免疫学研究的进展,对树突状细胞(DC)的需求正在逐渐增加。然而,DC在所有组织中都很少见。分离DC的传统方法主要涉及通过注射大剂量(>10 ng / mL)的粒细胞 – 巨噬细胞集落刺激因子/ 白细胞介素-4(GM-CSF / IL-4)来诱导骨髓(BM)分化为DC,使该过程复杂且昂贵。在该方案中,使用在10ng / mL GM-CSF / IL-4培养基中培养的所有BM细胞,经过3-4次半培养交换后,每只小鼠(两个股骨)收获高达2.7 x 107 CD11c + 细胞(DC),纯度为80%-95%。培养10天后,CD11c,CD80和MHC II的表达增加,而细胞数量减少。培养7天后细胞数量达到峰值。此外,该方法仅需10分钟即可收获所有骨髓细胞,并且在培养1周后获得大量DC。

Introduction

树突状细胞(DC)是最强大的抗原呈递细胞(APC),用于激活幼稚的T细胞并诱导针对传染病,过敏性疾病和肿瘤细胞的特定细胞毒性T淋巴细胞(CTL)反应123。DC是先天免疫和适应性免疫之间的主要纽带,在免疫防御和维持免疫耐受性方面起着至关重要的作用。在过去的40年中,许多研究人员试图定义DC的亚群及其在炎症和免疫中的功能。根据这些研究,DC从骨髓细胞沿着骨髓和淋巴系发展。近年来,肿瘤疫苗取得了重大的里程碑,并拥有光明的未来。在机械上,肿瘤疫苗通过使用肿瘤抗原激活细胞毒性T淋巴细胞来调节免疫反应并防止肿瘤生长。基于DC的疫苗在肿瘤免疫治疗中起着重要作用,已被确定为最有前途的抗肿瘤疗法之一14。此外,DC已广泛应用于新型分子靶向药物和免疫检查点抑制剂的检测5.

研究人员迫切需要大量的高纯度DC来进一步研究DC的作用。然而,DC在各种组织和血液中很少见,仅占人类和动物血细胞的1%。骨髓树突状细胞(BMDC)的 体外 培养是获得大量DC细胞的重要方法。同时,用于从骨髓中生成DC的Lutz协议已被研究人员广泛使用6。虽然该方案在获得DC细胞方面是有效的,但它是复杂和昂贵的,涉及添加高浓度的细胞因子和红细胞的裂解。

在这项研究中,我们报告了一种从小鼠骨髓(BM)中分离几乎所有骨髓细胞的方法,并在 体外孵育7-9天后诱导分化为BMDC,GM-CSF和IL-4的浓度较低。该过程只需10分钟即可收获几乎所有骨髓细胞并将其悬浮在完整的培养基中。简而言之,我们在本研究中为BMDC提供了一种高效且具有成本效益的养殖方法。

Protocol

所有程序均经南京医科大学动物保育使用委员会批准。 1. 骨髓分离和BM细胞的制备 通过CO 2窒息处死C57BL / 6小鼠(18-22g ,6-8周龄)。将鼠标固定在鼠标操作台上。用70%乙醇消毒表面。 切开腿部皮肤以暴露肌肉和股动脉。用两个镊子夹住并撕下股动脉,然后将近端拉向腹部。注意:不要直接切除股动脉。否则,会导致出血过多,污染视野?…

Representative Results

从两个股骨中提取1 x 10 7-1.7 x10 7个细胞,并在种植在6孔板中之前重新悬浮在24mL培养基中(图1A)。2天后,通过完全改变培养基去除非贴壁细胞。在更换培养基之前,观察到大量悬浮细胞(图1B)。培养3天后,小细胞集落开始形成。第六天,菌落的大小和数量显著增加。在第七天,细胞数量达到峰值(22 x 10 6-27 x 106),…

Discussion

人类和小鼠具有不同的DC亚群,包括经典DC(cDC,包括cDC1和cDC2s),浆细胞样DC(pDC)和单核细胞衍生DC(MoDC)91011。人们普遍认为,cDC1s调节细胞毒性T淋巴细胞(CTL)对细胞内病原体和癌症的反应,cDC2调节对细胞外病原体,寄生虫和过敏原的免疫反应12。在GM-CSF和IL-46<sup class="…
