Abstract:

BACKGROUND: The number of mesenchymal stem cells in the bone marrow of adult animals is little.
OBJECTIVE: To investigate whether shear stress could modify the abilities of growth, amplification and multi-potent differentiation of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells or not.
METHODS: SD rat bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells were isolated, cultured and amplified in vitro by Percoll density gradient centrifugation and adherent culture. 1 Pa shear stress was loaded on primary passage mesenchymal stem cells with a flow chamber system for osteogenic and adipogenic differentiation.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: The primary cells were mostly spindle-like in shape, like the fibroblast cells, and formatted clones. After the cells were loaded with shear stress and then passaged, they grew faster and bigger, and had the same morphologic characters similar as primary mesenchymal stem cells. The growth curves showed the growth regularity of all passage cells was similar, the laser scanning confocal microscope showed the CD41 and CD90 were positive, CD31 and CD45 were negative. After the cells were induced for 14 days, the results of Von Kossa strain and oil red O strain were both positive. The abilities of growth, amplification and multi-potent differentiation of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells maintained after shear stress loading.
