摘要:

干细胞虽然可促进神经再生以及神经组织修复,但是其来源和增殖能力有限,限制了其治疗效果。我们假设神经生长因子可促进与灵长类动物生理特征较为相似的树鼩神经干细胞的体外增殖。实验培养了来源于胚胎期38 d树鼩的海马组织神经干细胞,在培养基中增加100μg/L的神经生长因子,设置正常培养的树鼩的海马组织神经干细胞作为对照组,培养3 d后荧光显微镜检测发现,与对照组相比神经生长因子诱导组DAPI/Nestin荧光双标细胞数量明显增多,融合的细胞球数量也增多,细胞形态更完整。结果可以证实神经生长因子对树鼩神经干细胞增殖有明显促进作用。

Abstract:

Neural stem cells promote neuronal regeneration and repair of brain tissue after injury, but have limited resources and proliferative ability
in vivo. We hypothesized that nerve growth factor would promote in vitro proliferation of neural stem cells derived from the tree shrews, a
primate-like mammal that has been proposed as an alternative to primates in biomedical translational research. We cultured neural stem
cells from the hippocampus of tree shrews at embryonic day 38, and added nerve growth factor (100 μg/L) to the culture medium. Neural
stem cells from the hippocampus of tree shrews cultured without nerve growth factor were used as controls. After 3 days, fluorescence microscopy
after DAPI and nestin staining revealed that the number of neurospheres and DAPI/nestin-positive cells was markedly greater in
the nerve growth factor-treated cells than in control cells. These findings demonstrate that nerve growth factor promotes the proliferation
of neural stem cells derived from tree shrews.
