目的:研究提高成人大隐静脉平滑肌细胞(hVSMC)体外培养效率的方法。方法:无菌条件下取3 cm左右大隐静脉,去除内外膜后,切成1 mm×1 mm大小组织块,贴块法培养,高糖DMEM中加入血小板衍生生长因子(PDGF)10μg/L,免疫组织化学法鉴定平滑肌细胞。结果:大隐静脉平滑肌细胞沿组织块长出时间为8-12 d,原代培养(22±2)d传第1代,免疫组织化学染色细胞平均阳性率≥98%。结论:PDGF和高糖克服了hsVSMC体外培养休眠期过长的缺点。运用该方法,稳定获得hsVSMC原代细胞,且重复性好,细胞产量较大,简便而有效。
Objective: To study on increasing the successful rate of in vitro culturing of the human saphenous vascular smooth muscle cells (hVSMCs). Methods: A group of 3-cm-long saphenous veins were harvested under sterile conditions. After the internal and external membrane were removed, the middle membranes were cut into 1 mm× 1 mm size pieces, and were cultured by tissue-piece inoculation method, added to DMEM medium with PDGF (10 μg/L) and high concentration of glucose. The smooth muscle cells were identified by immunohistochemistry. Results: The hVSMCs grew along the tissue pieces for 8-12 days, the original generation was cultured for (22±2)days, and the purity of the third passage SMCs was more than 98%. The cultured cells showed the typical peak and valley appearance under microscope. Immunohistochemistry staining with m-Ab against rabbit SM-α-actin identified the cells. Conclusion: Culturing with PDGF and high glucose in vitro overcomes the shortcoming of the long period of hsVSMC dormancy. And the method was reproducible, simple, stable, and effective.
