Osteogenic potential of hBMP-2 gene transduced human adipose-derived stem cells / 中华创伤杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the ostengenie potential of adipose-derived stem cells(AD- SCs)when exposed to adenovirns containing hBMP-2 cDNA(Adv-hBMP-2)and offer a choice of cell source for gene therapy and tissue engineering.Methods Human adipose tissues were obtained from patients who received orthopaedic surgery or liposuction.ADSCs were obtained by digesting the adipose tissues.Firstly,flowcytometric analysis was performed for the confirmation of mesenchymal stem cell ori- gin and the surface markers including CD34,CD44,CD68,CD71,CD90,and CD105.The ADSCs were transfected by Adv-hBMP-2 and the effects were tested in vitro,lmmunoprecipitation and Western blotting and ELISA were performed for confirming BMP gone transduction and its stable expression.The transform of ADSCs was assessed by extracellular ALP staining,intracellular ALP spectrophotometry,von Kossa staining and RT-PCR.In the in vivo experiment ADSC-Adv-hBMP-2 cells were injected into the hind limb of nude mice and analyzed radiographically and histologically.Results ADSCs were successfully isolated from human adipose tissues.The isolated ADSCs expressed CD44,CD71,CD90 and CD105 and CD34 and CD68 were absent.The result confirmed the mesenchymal stem cell origin of the cells.West- ern blotting and ELISA confirmed successful and persistent hBMP-2 production by ADSC-Adv-hBMP-2 cells.Extracellular ALP staining,intracellular ALP spectrophotometry,yon Kossa staining and RT-PCR revealed that ADSCs treated with Adv-hBMP-2 had a tendency of transfering into osteoblast.X-ray and H&E sections from hind limb of nude mice injected with ADSC-Adv-hBMP-2 cells confirmed bone forma- tion at 2 weeks.Conclusions Liposuction aspirates contain abundant ADSCs that can be transduced with hBMP-2 gene,and the tranduced ADSCs differentiate into the osteoblast.ADSCs may be an ideal source of mesenchyme-lineage stem cells for gone therapy and tissue engineering.
