目的:探讨体外负压培养对骨髓间充质干细胞(bone marrow derived stroma cells,BMSCs)成骨活性的影响。方法:取第3代BMSCs分为实验组和对照组,实验组进行间歇性负压培养,设置压力为17kPa,每次30min,每日4次,干预2周;对照组于普通CO2培养箱中常规培养。倒置显微镜下观察细胞形态,检测ALP活性,免疫组织化学检测Ⅰ型胶原的表达,RT-PCR检测2周后以及终止负压后1、2、3d骨保护素(osteoprotegerin,OPG)mRNA和骨保护素配体(osteoprotegerin ligand,OPGL)mRNA表达水平。结果:诱导2周后,BMSCs呈现出显著的成骨细胞特性,与对照组比较,ALP活性显著增加,Ⅰ型胶原表达阳性,实验组细胞OPG mRNA表达水平显著提高,OPGL mRNA表达水平显著降低,且差异均有统计学意义(P〈0.05)。负压终止后3d,两组细胞OPG mRNA和OPGL mRNA表达水平差异无统计学意义(P〉0.05)。结论:体外负压培养可以提高BMSCs成骨活性。
Objective:To investigate effects of intermittent negative pressure on osteogenesis in human bone marrow-derived stroma cells(BMSCs) cultured in vitro.Methods:The third passage cells were divided into negative pressure treatment group and control group.The cells in the treatment group were induced by negative pressure intermittently(pressure:17 kPa,30min per time,and four times of each day).The cells in the control group were cultured in conventional condition.The osteogenesis of BMSCs was examined by phase-contrast microscopy.The alkaline phosphatase(ALP) activities were determined.The expression of collagen type I was detected by immunohistochemistry method.The mRNA expressions of osteoprotegerin (OPG) and osteoprotegerin ligand (OPGL) in BMSCs were analyzed by real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR).Results:BMSCs showed a typical appearance of osteoblast after 2 weeks of induction by intermittent negative pressure.The activity of ALP increased significantly,and the expression of collagen type I was positive.In the treatment group,the mRNA expression of OPG increased significantly (P0.05) and the mRNA expression of OPGL decreased significantly (P0.05) after 2 weeks,compared with the control.However,3 days after the exposure to 2-week negative pressure,these were no significantly different from that of the control group(P0.05).Conclusion:Intermittent negative pressure could promote osteogenesis in BMSCs in vitro.
