该协议着重于利用干细胞的固有能力,其周围的细胞外基质的线索,被诱导分化成多个表型。这种方法手稿延伸我们描述一个利用双层水凝胶的模型,PEG-纤维蛋白和胶原蛋白的组成和特性,同时脂肪干细胞分化<sup> 1</sup>。
多年来的天然聚合物获得了更多,因为它们的宿主的生物相容性和交互能力与细胞在体外和体内的重要性,认为在再生医学中的承诺的一个研究领域,是新型生物材料和干细胞的组合使用。在组织工程领域的一个基本战略是指导细胞的功能,使用三维支架(如脱细胞外基质,水凝胶,微/纳米颗粒)。这项技术已经从发现,细胞需要一个基板后,他们能够坚持,增殖,并表达他们分化 的细胞表型和功能2-3。最近,它也已被确定,细胞不仅使用这些基板的坚持,但也互动,并采取从矩阵基板(例如,细胞外基质,细胞外基质)的线索。因此,细胞和支架有一个相互连接,为控制组织发展,组织,和最终功能。脂肪干细胞(ASCs)是间质,非造血干细胞存在于脂肪组织,可以表现出多谱系分化的细胞现成的源(即前血管内皮细胞和周细胞)作为。我们的假设是,脂肪干细胞可以向简单的合作,培养他们的不同表型,同时在双层矩阵1。我们的实验室专注于皮肤伤口愈合。为此,我们建立了从天然生物材料的复合材料基体,纤维蛋白,胶原蛋白,壳聚糖,可以模仿特定皮肤伤口愈合的ECM环境的特点和功能。
ASCs的是众所周知的,他们易于隔离和向多种细胞类型分化的能力。在这个手稿中描述的技术,我们能够利用这些细胞暴露多个biomatrices同时ASCs的可塑性。细胞迁移远离他们的CSM基地,并进入其周围的细胞外环境,细胞采取从断头台上的提示,并可以保持“干细胞”(胶原蛋白),或向血管和血管支持细胞类型(纤维蛋白)被诱导分化。由于我们的实验室是在皮肤及软组织伤口愈合的兴趣,我们?…
