目的:探索大鼠膀胱Cajal间质细胞(ICC)的分离和培养方法,为进一步研究其在膀胱中的作用提供条件。方法:取大鼠的膀胱组织,采用Ⅱ型胶原酶酶解法分离细胞,将细胞悬液接种于含50ng/ml SCF、15%(v/v)FBS的DMEM培养基中,进行培养。用c-kit特异性杭体标记细胞,免疫荧光鉴定ICC细胞。结果:培养8小时后的ICC贴壁良好,并保持其固有特征:两个长的突起,多个短的侧突,胞体小,核大,c-kit抗体荧光染色阳性。结论:酶解法分离大鼠膀胱ICC并培养成功。
Objective: To investigate the role of the interstitial cells of Cajal (ICC) in rat bladder, the techniques of isolation and culture of ICC were explored from the rat bladder. Methods: The bladder tissue of rat was dissected. Collagenase II was used to isolate the ICC. The cells were suspended and cultured in DMEM medium containing 50ng/ml SCF and 15% (v/v) FBS. The c-kit antibody was applied to label ICC and to distinguish them from smooth muscle cells. Results: ICC adhered well after cultured for 8 hours. ICC in culture maintained the intrinsic characteristics: two long processes, multiple short lateral processes, large nuclei and small cell body. Fluorescent staining with c-kit antibody confirmed that the cultured ICC was c-kit positive. Conclusions: ICC has been isolated by enzyme digestion method from rat bladder and cultured successfully.
