Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Non-Muse cells are normal bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells minus Muse cells. NOD-SCID mice were infected with an injection directly into the stomach, with a bacterial suspension of STEC O111 1010 CFU (100% mortality). On day 2 after inoculation of STEC, bone marrow-derived Muse cells or non-Muse cells (bone marrow-MSCs other than Muse cells) were administered intravenously from the tail vein of the mouse model. An intravenous injection of human Muse cells had a strong effect in reducing the mortality rate (p<0.01) in the oral infection mouse model with STEC O111. In vitro experiment, reactivity of GFAP was maximized when 10 ng/ml of Stx2 and 1 µg/ml were exposed for a 12 h period. On greater observation many GFP-Muse cells were had attached to reactive astrocytes and some Muse cells surrounded astrocytes, and it seems that they may have killed the reactive astrocytes. In this microarray analysis, we discovered the factor X that may be involved in the reactive astrocytes.
