Abstract:

BACKGROUND: There is no uniform standard for bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) isolation, purification, culture and expansion, and no specific marker for BMSCs identification.
OBJECTIVE: To investigate the different isolation and culture methods of BMSCs.
METHODS: Rat BMSCs were isolated and cultured by the method of frequent replacement of culture medium at early stage, controlling trypsin digestion time and plastic adherent culture. The cultured cells were induced under different conditions. The differentiated adipoccytes, osteoblasts and chondrocytes were observed.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: Purified BMSCs can be obtained at the third generation with this isolation and culture method. The cultured cells have good proliferative potential. BMSCs can differentiate to adipocytes, osteoblasts and chondrocytes under certain conditions.
