The mNSCs are considered the ideal choice for cell therapy of Parkinson＇s disease. OBJECTIVE： To isolate rat embryonic mNSCs and to observe the differentiation characteristics of mNSCs induced by cell growth-promoting factors. DESIGN, TIME AND SETTING： An in vitro cell culture study based on the molecular biology of nerve cells was carried out at the Institute of Clinical Medicine, China-Japan Friendship Hospital （China） from March to November 2007. MATERIALS： Sprague Dawley rats at embryonic day 14 were used in this study. Nestin antibody, β-Ⅲ tubulin antibody, glial fibrillary acidic protein （GFAP） antibody and cyclic nucleotide 3＇-phosphohydrolase （CNPase） antibody were provided by Abcam; DMEM/F12 medium and N2 supplement were provided by Invitrogen; epidermal growth factor （EGF） and fibroblast growth factor-2 （FGF2） were provided by R＆D Systems. METHODS： The ventral mesencephalon was dissected from embryonic day 14 rat embryos. By trypsin digestion and mechanical separation, the brain tissue was triturated into a fine single-cell suspension. The cells were cultured in 5 mL serum-free medium containing DMEM/FI 2, 1% N： supplement, 20 ng/mL EGF and FGF2. The mNSCs at the third generation were coated with 10ug/mL polylysine and induced to differentiate in the DMEM/F12 supplemented with 1% fetal bovine serum and 1% N2. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES： The neural spheres of the third passage were identified by nestin immunofluorescence; at the same time, the cells were induced to differentiate, and the types of differentiated cell were identified by immunofluorescence for β Ⅲ tubulin, GFAP and CNPase. RESULTS： Seven days after primary culture, a great many neurospheres could be obtained by successive pasage. Immunofluorescence assays showed that the neurospheres were nestin positive, and after differentiation, the cells expressed GFAP, CNPase and β -Ⅲ-tubulin. CONCLUSION： Embryonic day 14 rat mNSCs can differentiate into neuron-like cells and glial cells following induction by EGF, FGF2 and N： additive.展开更多

文摘目的观察针刺对海洛因复吸大鼠脑神经细胞凋亡的影响。方法采用剂量递增法复制海洛因成瘾大鼠模型,将40只Wistar大鼠平均分成正常组、模型组、针刺组、药物组,于实验第39天取4组大鼠海马、中脑腹侧被盖区(ventral tegmental area,VTA)脑组织,光镜下观察神经细胞坏死情况,采用脱氧核糖核苷酸末端转移酶介导的缺口末端标记法(terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase mediated nick end labeling,TUNEL)检测脑神经细胞凋亡情况。结果光镜下可见模型组大鼠脑海马、VTA神经细胞丢失、变性较严重,核溶解消失,神经细胞变性坏死及间质水肿明显,并可见筛状软化灶。针刺组未见明显筛状软化灶,神经细胞变性坏死及间质水肿程度较模型组、药物组减轻。针刺组神经细胞间质水肿较轻,未见明显筛状软化灶,神经细胞水肿坏死变性较少量。与正常组比较,模型组大鼠脑海马、VTA中TUNEL染色阳性细胞数显著增多(P<0.01);与模型组、药物组比较,针刺组大鼠脑海马、VTA中TUNEL染色阳性细胞数显著减少(P<0.01)。结论海洛因成瘾可致大鼠脑神经细胞凋亡,针刺"百会"、"大椎"穴可抑制神经细胞凋亡。
