The infective product of virus regulates the biological behavior of mesenchymal stem cells / 中华内分泌外科杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To study whether the viral metabolites can make influence on biological behavior of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) and to provide evidence for safe MSCs transplantation.Methods MSCs were isolated from bone marrow of C57BL/6 mice and the mRNA level of Toll like receptor 3 (TLR3)was detected.In vitro polyinosinic-polycytidylic acid [poly(I ∶ C)] was used as the product of viral metabolite to stimulate MSCs.We recorded the change of MSCs in terms of self-renewal,multi-directional differentiation,directional migration and immunosuppression by flow cytometry,PCR etc.Results ①Low-expressed TLR3 mRNA was dectected in MSCs and it was upregulated after being stimulated by poly(I ∶ C).②After being stimulated by poly(I ∶ C)for 24,48,and 72 hours,the self-renewal ability of MSCs had no statistical difference with that of the control group(P ＞0.05).However,poly (I ∶ C)promoted the differentiation of MSCs to lipoblast and osteoblast (P ＜ 0.01).③The directional migration ability of MSCs was weakened significantly by poly(I ∶ C) stimulation.After being stimulated for 6,12,and 24 hours,the migration rate of MSCs was(82.83 ± 1.69) ％,(87.80 ± 3.58) ％,and (92.67 ± 2.52) ％ respectively compared to that of the control group.The difference had statistical significance(P ＜0.01).④MSCs had great immunological suppression ability and it was dependant on the number of MSCs.After being stimulated by poly(I ∶ C),the ability of MSCs' immunological suppression on proliferation of activated splenocytes was not impaired and the difference had no statistical significance compared with that of the control group(P ＞0.05).Conclusion While maintaining the viability and immunosuppression function of MSCs,viral metabolite inhibits migration of MSCs,holds them in the transplanted position and protects the graft,providing evidence for MSCs as seed cells in the treatment of diabetes and other immune disorder diseases.
