Popis: | AIM:To explore the feasibility that human amniotic epithelial cells (hAECs) have the potential to differentiate into corneal epithelial-like cells under the microenvironment replicated by spontaneously immortalized human corneal epithelial cells (S-ihCECs).METHODS: hAECs were isolated by enzyme digestion, and flow cytometry was used to analysis the expression of CD29/90/166/73/34 and HLA-DR. Recovered and cultured S-ihCECs, immunocytochemistry was used to detect the expression of CK3/12. The proliferation of S-ihCECs handled by different concentrations of mitomycin was detected by CCK-8. The proliferation of hAECs cultured by S-ihCECs culture media collected at different time was analyzed by CCK-8. After filtered out the optimal conditions, we collected S-ihCECs culture media for 5 days, then prepared conditioned medium to incubate hAECs, inverted phase contrast microscope and scanning electron microscope were used to observe the change of morphology in hAECs. Quantitative real-time reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (QRT-PCR) was carried out to evaluate the expression of Oct-4, NANOG, PAX6, and CK12 in the differentiation period. Immunocytochemistry and western bloting were used to detect the expression of CK3/12.RESULTS: The culture media collected every 12h, from 20μg/mL mitomycin pretreatment S-ihCECs could significantly promote the proliferation of hAECs. In the period of differentiation, the morphology of differentiated hAECs was obviously different compared with the control group, and the distinctive CK3/12 for corneal epithelial cells was detected. |
