ABSTRACT

Objective: To investigate the effect of leukemia inhibitory factor (LIF) on the of proliferation and differentiation of ectomesenchymal cells of mandibular process in Balb/c fetal mice . Methods: Ectomesenchymal cells from the E12.5 mice mandibular process were cultured in DMEM/F12 with 10 6u/L LIF (experimental group) or without LIF (control). The proliferation effect was detected by MTT assay, Brdu test and flow cytometry. Immunohistochemistry were used to identify the differentiation state. Results: By day 7 the A value of the experimental group was 0.38?0.03,that of the control 0.30?0.02 (P
