Measurement of Mesenchymal Stem Cells Attachment to Endothelial Cells

[Abstract]  Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) have shown profound therapeutic potential in tissue repair and regeneration. However, recent studies indicate that MSCs are largely entrapped in lungs after intravenous delivery and die shortly. The underlying mechanisms have been poorly understood. We have provided evidence to show that excess expression and activation of integrins in culture-expanded MSCs is a critical cause of MSCs adhesion to endothelial cells of the lung microarteries resulting in the entrapment of the cells (Wang et al., 2015). Therefore, it may be meaningful to test the adhesive ability of MSCs to endothelial cells in vitro before intravenous administration to avoid their lung vascular obstructions. Here we report a simple method to measure MSCs attachment to ... [摘要]  间充质干细胞(MSCs)在组织修复和再生中显示出深远的治疗潜力。 然而,最近的研究表明,MSCs在静脉内递送后很大程度上被截留在肺中并且很快死亡。 基本的机制一直不甚了解。 我们提供的证据表明培养扩增的MSCs中整联蛋白的过量表达和活化是MSCs与肺微动脉的内皮细胞粘附的关键原因,导致细胞的包埋(Wang等人 >,2015)。 因此,在静脉给药之前测试MSC对体外内皮细胞的粘附能力以避免它们的肺血管阻塞可能是有意义的。 在这里,我们报告了一种简单的方法来衡量MSC与内皮细胞的附着。

【背景】间充质干细胞(MSCs)正在成为一种极具潜力的治疗药物,许多临床试验正在进行中(Salem和Thiemermann,2010)。由于MSC的方便性和安全性,静脉输注MSCs已成为近期临床试验中MSCs治疗的流行途径(Wu and Zhao,2012)。然而,越来越多的证据表明,MSCs在血管内注射后引起相当大的血管阻塞。在静脉内输注时,超过80%的MSC被包埋在肺中,并且在急性缺血性心脏或脑中仅检测到少于1%的MSC(Lee等人,2009; Toma等人,等人,2009年)。

最近的研究表明,MSCs在静脉内给药后大部分停留在前毛细血管微血管中,并且其中大部分在短期内局部缺血死亡(Toma等人,2009)。因此,血管内给药的MSC的安全性和有效性已成为人们日益关注的问题。尚未完全了解MSCs血管阻塞的机制。 ...

[Abstract]  Listeria monocytogenes is an important Gram-positive foodborne pathogen that is a particular problem in ready-to-eat food. It has an ability to survive in harsh conditions like refrigeration temperatures and high salt concentrations and is known to cross intestinal, placental and blood-brain barriers. Several cancerous cell lines like cervical, liver, dendritic, intestinal and macrophages have been used to study in vitro propagation and survival of listeria in human cells. Human intestinal epithelial cells have been used to study how listeria crosses the intestinal barrier and cause infection. The protocol in this articles describes the procedures to grow Caco-2 cells, maintain cells and use them for adhesion and invasion assays. During adhesion assay the cells are ... [摘要]  单核细胞增生利斯特氏菌是一种重要的革兰氏阳性食源性病原体,是即食食品中的一个特殊问题。它具有在诸如制冷温度和高盐浓度的恶劣条件下生存的能力,并且已知可以穿过肠,胎盘和血脑屏障。已经使用了诸如子宫颈,肝脏,树突状细胞,肠和巨噬细胞的几种癌细胞系来研究人细胞中李斯特菌的体外扩增和存活。人肠上皮细胞已被用于研究李斯特菌如何穿过肠屏障并引起感染。本文中的方案描述了生长Caco-2细胞的过程,维持细胞并将其用于粘附和侵袭测定。在粘附测定期间,将细胞与李斯特菌孵育30分钟,但是在侵袭测定中,细胞生长在感染后的几个时间点被停止以监测细胞中李斯特菌的生长和存活率。
