Objective To study the external biocompatibility bewteen the mouse induced pluripotent stem cells (miPSCs) and poly-3-hydroxybutyrate-co-3-hydroxyhexanoate (PHBHHx). Methods After we recovered and subcultured miPSCs, we divided them into two groups. There was one group cultured with material of PHBHHx films outside the body. We observed the adhesive pattern of miPSCs on film by fluorescence of 4, 6-diamidino-2-phenylindole (DAPI) staining. The cell vitality was detected by cell counting kit-8 (CCK-8). The morphology of miPSCs attached on the film was visualized under scanning electron microscope (SEM). We used the traditional petri dish to culture miPSCs and detect the cell activity by CCK-8. Results MiPSCs can adhere and proliferate on PHBHHx films. The result of cell vitality which detected by CCK-8 showed that there was a statistical difference in OD value between culturing on PHBHHx films and traditional cultivation (0.617±0.019 vs. 0.312±0.004, P < 0.05). Conclusion There are adhesion and proliferation on the surface of cells patch made by miPSCs co-culturing with PHBHHx film. Compared with traditional culturing in the cell culture dish, culturing in PHBHHx films have great advantages in the process of adhesion and proliferation. PHBHHx can be used as one of the scaffold for stem cells treating various disease.
