The SPIO labeling of mature dogs BMSCs in vitro / 中华显微外科杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To explore labeling efficiency and appropriate conditions of Superpara magnetic iron exide nanopaticles (SPIO) nanoparticles for Bone marrow stromal cells(BMSCs). Methods BMSCs were aquired from skeletally mature dogs via iliac crest aspiration and separated by adherent cell cytopheresis.BMSCs were cultured and incubated with SPIO at different concentrations in vitro. The labeling efficiency of BMSCs with different labeling concentrations SPIO nanoparticles as well as detection of characteristics and signal attenuation rules were evaluated by MRI at 1.5T in vitro. Results BMSCs were efficiently labeled by SPIOin vitro and has no alterations to viability and proliferation profiles at this labeling concentration. BMSCs loaded with SPIO can be detected by MRI at certainly cell quantity in vitro(5 × 104). The quantity of SPIO in cells gradually reduced as cell culture time prolonged, with no statistically significant changes in cell death(P＞ 0.05). Conclusion The results demonstrated the potential application of SPIO as a wonderful cell tracer in vitro.
