摘要
In this study, we employed bio-derived bone scaffold and composited with the marrow mesenchymal stem cell induced into osteoblast to replicate a "biomimetic niche." The CD34(+) cells or mononuclear cells (MNC) from umbilical cord blood were cultured for 2-5 weeks in the biomimetic niche (3D system) was compared with conventional two dimensional cultures (2D system) without adding cytokine supplement. After 2 weeks in culture, the CD34(+) cells from umbilical cord blood in the 3D system increased 3.3-4.8 folds when compared with the initial CD34(+) cells. CD34(+)/CD38(-) cells accounted for 82-90% of CD34(+) cells. After 5 weeks, CD34(+)/CD38(-) cells in the 3D system increased when compared with initial (1.3 +/- A 0.3 x 10(3) vs. 1.0 +/- A 0.5 x 10(4), p < 0.05), but were decreased in the 2D system (1.3 +/- A 0.3 x 10(3) vs. 2.5 +/- A 0.7 x 10(2), p < 0.05). The CFU progenitors were produced more in the 3D system than in the 2D system (4.6-9.3 folds vs. 1.0-1.5 folds) after 2 weeks in culture, and the colony distribution in the 3D system manifested higher percentage of BFU-E and CFU-GEMM, but in the 2D system was mainly CFU-GM. The LTC-ICs in the 3D system showed 5.2-7.2 folds increase over input at 2 weeks in culture, and maintain the immaturation of hematopoietic progenitor cells (HPCs) over 5 weeks. In conclusion, this new 3D hematopoietic progenitor cell culture system is the first to utilize natural cancellous bone as scaffold with osteoblasts as supporting cells; it is mimicry of natural bone marrow HSC niche. Our primary work has demonstrated it could maintain and expand HSC/HPC in vitro.
