  • AN EXPERIMENTAL RESEARCH OF TISSUE ENGINEERED SUBMAND IBULAR GLAND CELLS GROW ING ONCOLLAGEN SPONGE SCAFFOLD

    Objective To make an experimental research of the tissue engineered rat submandibular glands (SMG) cells growing on a collagensponge scaffold under an optimal culture condition. Methods The Wistar rat (8 days old) SMG cells of the second generation were seeded onthesurface of the collagen sponge scaffold (5 mm×5 mm×2 mm) and were cultured under a physiologically optimal condition for 3 weeks. At 1, 2 and 3 weeks, the cultured cells were observed on their shapes and structures by the histological examination and the scanning electron microscopy. The cultured cells underwentthe immunohistochemistry research (the cytokratin 813,CK8.13;αsmooth muscular actin,αSMA) staining performed at 3 weeks of the culture, and the amylaseactivity analysis (the Amano method) performed at 1 day, 1, 2 and 3 weeks of the culture for an evaluation on the secretion function of the cells; the ultrastructures of the cells were also observed by the transmission electron microscopy for an identification of their origins. Results The observatio n under the scanning electron microscope showed that at 1 week after the cellseeding, the seeded cells were attached to the collagen sponge scaffold surface, with no cell process formed; at 2 weeks the cells increased, with formation of the cell process that was anchored on the collagen sponge scaffold surface; and at 3 weeks, the scaffold surfaceattached cells increased, with formation of thefiliform fibers in the surface layer of the cells. The immunohistochemistry staining showed that the cultured epithelial cells of SMG were bly positive for the specific antibody of CK8.13, and the myoepithelial cells were positive forthe specific antibody of αSMA. The transmission electron microscopy showed that in the surface layer of the cultured epithelial cells of SMG the microvilli,plasm crease, and zymogen granules were observed, with a big and ovalshaped nucleus in the cell, and mitochondria and rough endoplasmic reticulum in the cytoplasm of the cell. The amount of amylase secreted by the cells cultured with thecollagen sponge scaffolds increased at a different degree with an extension of the culturing time. Conclusion The collagen sponge has a satisfactory cell compatibility, and the SMG cells cultured with this kind of collagen sponge can keep their abilities of proliferation and differentiation and theirfunction of secretion. Therefore, this kind of cultured SMG cells can be used as the tissueengineered cells seeded in the scaffold.

  • ROLE OF TRANSFORMING GROWTH FACTOR β3 ON AMYLASE SECRETION OF SUBMANDIBULAR GLAND CELLS IN RAT

    Objective To investigate the role of transforming growth factorβ3 (TGF-β3) on the amylase secretion of rat submandibular gland cells(RSGCs).Methods The RSGCs were cultured and identified. The expressions of CK 8.13, S100 and Vimentin in the RSGCs were examined by immunohistochemical staining. The experimental group was divided into 5 groups according to differentconcentrations of TGF-β3 (0.5, 1.0, 5.0, 10.0 and 25.0 ng/ml) and no TGF-β3 culture was used as control group. The effects ofTGF-β3 on the cell proliferation and amylase secretion were examined at the24th, the 48th, the 72nd and the 96th hour. MTT colorimetric method was used to estimate vital force of culture cells. Amylase protein was assayed by autobiochemistry equipment and Western blotting.Results The RSGCs were stained positively for CK 8.13 and S-100, but negatively for Vimentin. There were no significant differences in absorbency between the experimental groups and the control group(Pgt;0.05). Compared with the control group,TGF-β3 at concentrations of 0.5-10.0 ng/ml significantly stimulated the amylase secretion of RSGCs after 72 and 96 hours(Plt;0.01). But high concentration of TGF-β3 (25.0ng/ml) showed no stimulation. Western blotting demonstrated that the cultured RSGCs and submandibular gland had the same band of amylase electrophoresis.Conclusion TGF-β3 can stimulate RSGCs to differentiate and to secrete amylase, but TGF-β3 has no effect on proliferation ofRSGCs.

  • COMPARATIVE STUDY ON THE ISOLATING METHODS OF RAT SUBMANDIBULAR GLAND CELL FOR PRIMARY CULTURE

    Objective To explore the isolating methods of rat submandibular gland cell for primary culture. Methods Rat submandibular gland cell were isolated by direct isolation and pancreatin digestion respectively, and then were cultured and subcultured on DMEM. The shape and structure of cultured cells were observed with phase contrast microscope. The cell survival rate was detected by using trypan blue elimination test. The vital force of culture cells was estimated with MTT colorimetric method. The cultured cell secretion function was evaluated by assay of amylase activity. Results By direct isolatin, the cell survival rate was 70% and the cell vital force was 0.16±0.014. By pancreatin digestion, the cell survival rate was 85% and the cell vital force was 0.45±0.13; the cells had good shape and attached well. The Ck8.13 and keratin antibodies were epithelium specific and α-SMA antibodies were myoepithelium specific. The cells were stained positively with CK8.13, keratin and α-SMA antibodies. Conclusion The method of pancreatin digestion for the isolation of submandibular gland cell is better than that of idrect isolation.
