Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We attempted to identify stem/progenitor cells in salivary gland. Localization of BrdU label-retaining cells were found specifically in myoepthelial cells located between luminal and stroma cells after 30 weeks, suggesting that myoepithelial cells were expected to be one of putative stem cells. The data from RNA-seq showed CD49fhigh subset contained positive cells for both of αSMA and Myh11, a marker of myoepithelial cells, demonstrating that CD49fhigh subset consisted of myoepithelial cell-enriched population. The selection of a CD49fhigh subset showed high ability of sphere formation and was differentiated into ductal lineage in vitro. These data suggest that the enriched myoepithelial cell compartment may contain stem/progenitor cells in salivary glands since the cells enriched in CD49fhigh subset showed multipotent properties by sphere formation.
