Rabbits limbal stem cells（LSCs） were co-cultured on h UCMSCs, h UVECs, h DPSCs, h PDLSCs and NIH-3T3, and then comparative analysis were made between each group to see their respective colony-forming efficiency（CFE） assay and immunofluorescence（IPO13,CK3/12）.RESULTS： The efficiency of the four type cells in supporting the LSCs morphology and its cellular differentiation was similar to that of NIH-3T3 fibroblasts as demonstrated by the immunostaining properties analysis, with each group exhibiting a similar strong expression pattern of IPO13, but lacking CK3 and CK12 expression in terms of immunostaining. But h UCMSCs, h DPSCs and h PDLSCs feeder layers were superior in promoting colony formation potential of cells when compared to h UVECs and feedercell-free culture.CONCLUSION： hUCMSCs, hDPSCs and hPDLSCs can be a suitable alternative to conventional mouse NIH-3T3 feeder cells, so that risk of zoonotic infection can be diminished.展开更多
In vitro growth and maintenance of embryonic stem (ES) cell lines derived from ICM cells of various blastocysts of 129 strain mice, the sustenance of their pluripotency and normal karyotype depend on the feeder layer ...In vitro growth and maintenance of embryonic stem (ES) cell lines derived from ICM cells of various blastocysts of 129 strain mice, the sustenance of their pluripotency and normal karyotype depend on the feeder layer of mouse embryonic fibroblasts (MEF). Compared with the feeder layer of MEF cells, medium conditioned by Buffalo rat liver cells (BRL-CM) is able to maintain pluripotency and karyo-typic normality of ES cells only in short term cell propagation. Besides, ES cells grown in BRL-CM are also capable of aggregation with 8-cell embryos of Swiss strain and develop into germ line chimaeras. Modification to the method of aggregating ES cells with early embryos by making a hole in agar layer on the top of MEF feeder cells was shown to be more convenient and efficient than the conventional microdrop method.展开更多
