| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
To elucidate the chondrocyte differentiation ability of bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells, we experimented with the cells that formed spheroids in vitro. The cells were cultured into cryo vials (100000 cells/ml) and incubated in culture media (1% FBS, 1% insulin - transferrin - selenite (ITS), dexamethasone (0.1μM), sodium pyruvate (1mM), TGFβ-3 (10 ng/ml-containing). The differentiation of the spheroids that the cells formed (day 21 specimen) was assayed. Cell differentiation was evaluated by Alcian blue staining. We also examined immunohistochemically by using Sox9 and aggrecan antibodies. In the experimental group,these structures showed positive reaction of Alcian blue, Sox9, and aggrecan. On the other hand, there were no evidences of chondrocyte differentiation in the control group. Therefore, these results suggest that spheroid formation of bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells might be useful in chondrocyte regeneration therapy.
