title: [In vitro study of the directed inducing cartilage cells from rat bone mesenchymal stem cells on scaffolds].
abstract: This study was conducted to assess the cell proliferation and cell cycle of the directed inducing cartilage cells from rat bone mesenchymal stem cells on collagen sponge and compare the results with those of the plane inducing cartilage cells. The MSCs were isolated from rat bone marrow by density gradient centrifuge and adhesive property, and then were induced into chondrogenic differentiation by adding transforming growth factor-beta1 (TGF-beta1), dexamethasone, transferring and insulin on collage sponge and plane condition. Immunohistochemistry was applied to detect the expression of collagen type II on the scaffolds and plane conditions. The cell proliferation and cell cycle on different conditions were detected with MTT automated colormetric microassay and flow cytometry. The differentiation of MSCs toward chondrogenic phenotype was verified by the positive result of collagen type II on the scaffolds and plane condition. The cell viability in scaffolds was better than that in plane conditions. The S phase and G2 phase were 30 percent in whole cell cycle on the scaffold, which was different from that of the control groups. The method of using the Using directed inducing cartilage from bone MSCs combined with collage sponge to construct tissue-engineered cartilage is feasible; it is better than the method of plane directed inducing.
