Abstract
Objective To study the compatibility and feasibility of construct tissue engineer bladder through biocompatibility of hair follicle stem cells (HFSCs) and heterogeneous bladder acellular matrix (BAM) in vitro and vivo.Methods The third-generation of rat HFSCs were cultured with the two-step enzymatic and different adhesion time method.The cells were identified by flow cytometry through detection expression of β1 integrin FITC-Conjugated.The New Zealand rabbit BAM were decellularized by the method of microdissection and chemical washing,and then examined by Masson staing and electron microscope to confirm no cell elements remained.The HFSCs of the rats were implanted in BAM and cultured for about 24 hours.Then the cells growth conditions on the material surface were examined by histology and scanning electron microscopy.The cells-scaffold composites were implanted in rats subcutaneously,samples and histological examination were harvested at 1,2 and 4 weeks after implantation.Results The BAM was white and translucent membranous.There were fiber network structures without cell elements remained under the examination of electron microscope.And the BAM prompted for collagen tissue composition under Masson staining,without significant residual cells.The growth condition of HFSCs beside the BAM was well that observed by inverted microscope at 48 h of co-culture.After 1 week the HFSCs extended and adhered to the matrix surface observed under the scanning electron microscope.No significant inflammatory response in rat subcutaneous implantation experiments,the single-layer cell structure in histological examination could be seen after 1 week,and multi-layer cell structure in histological examination could be seen after 4 weeks of implantation.Conclusion The biocompatibility of HFSCs and heterogeneous BAM is good,which provides a good experiment support for HFSCs to repair the bladder defects disease.
