摘要:

目的 探讨转化生长因子β1 (TGF-β1)对骨髓间充质干细胞(BMSCs)定向分化为心肌样细胞的影响。方法 取SD大鼠四肢骨骨髓,分离培养BMSCs,应用2、5、10、15 μg/L TGF-β1对第2代BMSCs定向诱导,相差显微镜观察细胞形态变化,应用免疫细胞化学技术检测诱导后4周BMSCs结蛋白(desmin)、α-横纹肌肌动蛋白(α-SCA)、心肌肌钙蛋白T(cTnT)及心肌连接蛋白43 (Cx43)的表达情况。根据cTnT心肌源性特异性标记物的阳性率分析心肌样细胞的转化率;应用激光扫描共焦显微镜技术,检测诱导后4周BMSCs α-SCA、cTnT的表达;以半定量RT-PCR方法在诱导后7、21和28d检测心肌转录调节因子(GATA4)和心肌特异性α-肌球蛋白重链(α-MHC)的表达。结果 1.不同浓度TGF-β1 诱导后的BMSCs,其形态在不同的时间段存在差异。15μg/L组和2μg/L组诱导7d的BMSCs形态变化不明显,与对照组类似,随后则逐渐转变成长柱形;5μg/L组诱导后的BMSCs 于7d时形态已转变成类长柱形,28d时细胞体积则变小,呈条索状排列;10μg/L组诱导后的BMSCs类似于5μg/L组,但细胞数量相对较少。2.不同浓度TGF-β1 诱导4周后的BMSCs均可见desmin、α-SCA及Cx43的阳性细胞,其中5μg/L组的阳性率均最强。各诱导组与对照组desmin、α-SCA及Cx43的阳性率差异均具有显著性(P <0.05)。3.各诱导组cTnT均有阳性表达。根据cTnT阳性率计算出的心肌样细胞转化率在5μg/L组最高,显著高于2μg/L组(P =0.028) 和15μg/L组(P =0.000),但与10μg/L组之间差异不显著(P >0.05)。此外,各诱导组的心肌样细胞转化率均显著高于对照组(P <0.01)。4.激光扫描共焦显微镜技术检测结果显示,经TGF-β1诱导4周的BMSCs α-SCA和cTnT蛋白均定位于细胞质且呈共表达。5.RT-PCR结果显示,GATA-4于诱导后7d弱表达,21d表达增强,28d表达减弱;α-MHC在诱导后7d不表达,21d弱表达,28d表达明显。结论 TGF-β1可以诱导BMSCs获得心肌分化表型,最佳诱导浓度是5μg/L。

Abstract:

Objective To explore the effect of the differentiation of rat bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) into cardiomyocyte-like cells in vitro using different concentrations of TGF-β1(transforming growth factor beta1). Methods BMSCs of the SD rat were isolated and cultured from rat bone marrow, then the 2nd-generation BMSCs were induced by 2, 5, 10, 15μg/L TGF-β1 for 72 hours. The cultured cells were observed under a phase-contrast microscope. The immunohistochemical technique was used to examine the expression of desmin,α-sarcomeric actin, cTnT and Cx43. The laser scanning confocal microscope (LSCM) was used for the expression of α-sarcomeric actin and cTnT. GATA-4 and α-myosin heavy chain (α-MHC) expression were detected by relative quantitative RT-PCR after 7, 21, 28 days of induction respectively. Results 1.The morphous of BMSCs cell was different in each treatment group. BMSCs after being induced by 2, 15μg/L TGF-β1 on 7days were the same as the control group. BMSCs induced by 5μg/L TGF-β1 on 28 days showed a fusiform shape, orientating with one accord, forming myotubule-like structure. The morphous of BMSCs after being induced by 10μg/L TGF-β1 was the same as the 5μg/L group, but the number of cells was relatively small. 2. BMSCs induced by different concentrations of TGF-β1 on 28 days were identified by the positive staining for desmin, α-sarcomeric actin and Cx43. The positive rates were higher than that of the control group. 3. The rate of cTnT-positive cells in the 5μg/L treatment group was greater than that of the 15μg/L treatment group (P =0.000) and the 2μg/L treatment group(P =0.028). The number in the control group was lower than that of the treatment groups(P <0.01). 4. Under LSCM after immunoflurescence labeling, we found that bright red fluorescence in the cytoplasm was observed in the α-sarcomeric actinpositive cells, green fluorescence in the cytoplasm was in the cTnT-positive cells while the part that overlaps was yellow. 5.RT-PCR assessment showed that the differentiated cells began to express GATA-4 from day 7 to day 28 of differentiation and began to express α-MHC from day 21 to day 28 of differentiation. Conclusion TGF-β1 may induce BMSCs to acquire cardiogenic phenotype and 5μg/L is a suitable induced concentration.
