摘要:

文题释义:
细胞球:是一种简单且被广泛应用的多细胞三维培养模型,细胞在隔绝与基底的黏附作用后,由于聚集倾向而相互靠拢形成细胞球。这种立体结构促进了细胞与周围细胞在空间上的交流,符合体内细胞的生长状态,一定程度上还原了细胞在体内的生存环境,生理学相关性强。
琼脂糖:是一种提取自藻类的多糖,可溶解在沸腾的溶液中,冷却后形成凝胶。琼脂糖凝胶无细胞毒性,且不携带细胞黏附位点,因此人和动物的细胞不能附着在该水凝胶之上。
背景:细胞球三维培养模型在组织工程领域应用前景广泛,但使用商品化超低吸附培养板进行细胞球培养的实验成本较高,因此需探寻一种细胞球成形的替代策略,推动细胞球在相关研究领域的应用。
目的:采用琼脂糖和聚丙烯酸模具,并利用层层自组装技术构建细胞球三维培养模型,部分模拟细胞体内生存的微环境。
方法:体外培养小鼠前体成骨细胞,依次使用明胶与海藻酸钠对小鼠前体成骨细胞进行层层自组装处理(层层自组装-小鼠前体成骨细胞),同时分别制备明胶包裹与海藻酸钠包裹的小鼠前体成骨细胞。分别制备琼脂糖凝胶涂层培养板与琼脂糖凝胶微孔板,观察上述不同处理的细胞在两种培养板中的成球效果,采用Live/Dead染色法检测细胞球的活性,采用碱性磷酸酶染色法、RT-PCR 实验检测细胞球的成骨能力。
结果与结论:①光学显微镜下可见,在琼脂糖凝胶涂层孔板中,未经处理与经3种涂层处理的小鼠前体成骨细胞均未成球;在琼脂糖凝胶微孔板中,未经处理与层层自组装处理的小鼠前体成骨细胞形成了理想的细胞球,其中层层自组装-小鼠前体成骨细胞球的直径大于未经处理小鼠前体成骨细胞球(P < 0.05);②Live/Dead染色显示,层层自组装-小鼠前体成骨细胞球内的细胞活性高于未经处理小鼠前体成骨细胞球(P < 0.05);③层层自组装-小鼠前体成骨细胞球的碱性磷酸酶活性高于未经处理小鼠前体成骨细胞球(P < 0.05),Ⅰ型胶原和Osterix基因表达高于未经处理小鼠前体成骨细胞球(P < 0.05),两组Runx2基因表达比较差异无显著性意义(P > 0.05);④结果表明,采用琼脂糖凝胶结合层层自组装技术成功建立了细胞球三维培养模型,此方法便捷、经济、高效且细胞活性良好,保留了细胞成骨分化能力,在骨组织工程和再生医学领域具有潜在应用价值。

Abstract: BACKGROUND: The application prospect of cell spheroids is wide in tissue engineering, while the experimental cost of using commercial ultra-low adsorption culture plates to form spheroids is relatively high. Therefore, it is necessary to explore an alternative strategy for cell spheroids formation to promote the application of cell spheroids in related research fields.
OBJECTIVE: Combined with agarose and polyacrylic mold, three-dimensional cell spheroids are established by layer-by-layer self-assembly technology, and so that the micro physiological environment of cells are partially restored.
METHODS: In vitro, MC3T3-E1 cells of mice were coated with gelatin and sodium alginate respectively, through layer-by-layer self-assembly technology (LBL-MC3T3-E1). Gelatin-coated and sodium alginate-coated MC3T3-E1 cells were prepared as well. Agarose-coated plates and agarose microwell plates were prepared respectively. The cellular spheroids formation effect of the above treated cells in these culture plates was observed. The Live/Dead staining method was used to detect the viability of cell spheroids. The alkaline phosphatase staining and real-time PCR were used to confirm the osteogenesis of cell spheroids. 
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: (1) As seen under the light microscope, in agarose-coated well plates, both untreated and treated MC3T3-E1 cells did not form into spheroids; and in agarose microwell plates, untreated and LBL-MC3T3-E1 cells formed ideal cell spheroids, in which the diameter of LBL-MC3T3-E1 cell spheroids was larger than that of untreated MC3T3-E1 cell spheroids (P < 0.05). (2) The results of Live/Dead staining showed that the cellular viability within LBL-MC3T3-E1 cell spheroids was better than that of MC3T3-E1 cell spheroids (P < 0.05). (3) The alkaline phosphatase activity of LBL-MC3T3-E1 cell spheroids was higher than that of MC3T3-E1 cell spheroids (P < 0.05). Collagen-I and Osterix gene expression levels were higher than those of MC3T3-E1 cell spheroids (P < 0.05), and the difference in Runt-related transcription factor 2 gene expression was not significant between the two groups (P > 0.05). (4) These results showed that a three-dimensional culture model of cell spheroids was successfully established by using agarose and polyacrylic acid molds combined with layer-by-layer self-assembly technology. This method is convenient, economical, efficient, and has good cell viability, preserves the osteogenic differentiation ability of cells, thus having potential applications in the field of bone tissue engineering and regenerative medicine.
