Modified method for effective primary vascular smooth muscle progenitor cell culture from peripheral blood.

Abstract:

:In previous studies, vascular smooth muscle progenitor cells (vSMPCs) isolated from peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) were cultured using medium containing platelet-derived growth factor-BB (PDGF-BB) for 4 weeks. However, this method requires long culture periods of up to 4 weeks and yields low cell counts. Therefore, we proposed the modified method to improve the cell yield and purity and to reduce the cell culture period. PBMCs were isolated from human peripheral blood and cultured by the conventional method using medium containing PDGF-BB alone or the modified method using medium containing PDGF-BB, basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF), and insulin-transferrin-selenium ITS for 4 weeks. The purity of vSMPCs was analyzed for the expression of a- smooth muscle actin (SMA) by flow cytometry and significantly higher in the modified method than conventional methods at the 1st and 2nd weeks. Also, mRNA expression of a-SMA by real-time PCR was significantly higher in the modified method than conventional method at the 2 weeks. The yield of vSMPCs by trypan blue exclusion assay was significantly higher in the modified method than conventional method at the 1st, 2nd and 3rd weeks. The primary culture using the modified method with PDGF-BB, bFGF, and ITS not only improved cell purity and yield, but also shortened the culture period, compared to the conventional culture method for vSMPCs. The modified method will be a time-saving and useful tool in various studies related to vascular pathology.
