Caractérisation des cellules souches mésenchymateuses du sang placentaire et de la gelée de Wharton / Caracterization of mesenchymal stem cells from cord blood and Wharton's jelly

Margossian, Talar 25 March 2013 (has links)
Les cellules souches suscitent de grands espoirs pour la thérapie cellulaire et l'ingénierie tissulaire. Les CSM du tissus foetaux (sang placentaire et gelée de Wharton du cordon ombilical), à l'origine d'épiblaste embryonnaire, sont considérées comme plus primitives que les CSM provenant de sources adultes. Les conditions de culture ayant un impact sur le comportement des cellules, dans notre étude, nous avons exploré l'effet de la concentration de l'oxygène sur l'expansion, l'immunophénotypage et la différenciation de ces cellules. L'objectif de ce travail est d'identifier la méthode optimale d'isolation des CSM issues de tissus foetaux. Compte tenu du faible taux de succès dans l'isolement des CSM extraites du sang placentaire, nous nous sommes dirigés vers les CSM-GW. Nous y avons déterminé in situ, les marqueurs spécifiques exprimés dans la gelée de Wharton et à la périphérie. Des études sur la morphologie, la cinétique de croissance, et sur l'expression phénotypique des marqueurs de surface, des CSM-GW, ont été effectuées sur une longue durée (7 passages) à différentes conditions de culture. Nous avons montré que la GW est composée d'une abondante matrice extracellulaire riche en collagènes et glycosaminoglycannes et que les cellules possèdent un phénotype variable selon leur localisation dans la gelée. Ce tissu est capable de fournir une quantité importante de CSM (6,7x105 Cs/cm de cordon) qui gardent une morphologie constante. Enfin, quel que soit le passage, la concentration de l'oxygène ne semble pas avoir d'effet sur le phénotype des cellules. En revanche, une faible teneur en oxygène durant l'expansion semble diminuer le temps de doublement des cellules, favoriser la chondrogénèse et inhiber la différenciation ostéogénique. Enfin, quelles que soient les conditions de culture, la différenciation adipogénique des CSM-GW semble difficile à obtenir / Stem cells are the hopes for cell therapy and tissue engineering. MSCs from fetal tissue (umbilical cord blood and WJ), which are a source of embryonic epiblast grow relatively faster comparing to other adult sources. The culture condition can affect cell behavior. In our study, we explored the effect of oxygen concentration on the expansion, immunophenotyping, and differentiation of these cells. The aim of this work is to identify the optimal method for isolation of MSCs derived from fetal tissue. Given the low rate of success in the isolation of MSCs from cord blood, we headed to WJ-MSCs. We have determined in siu, the specific markers expressed in the WJ and in the perivascular region. Studies on the morphology growth kinetics, and phenotypic expression of surface makers of MSCs isolated from WJ were made over a long period (7 passages) in different culture conditions. We have shown that WJ is composed of an abundant extracellular matrix rich in collagen and glycasominoglycans and have variable phenotype depending from their localization in the jelly. This tissue is able to provide a large amount of MSCs (6.7x105 Cs/cm of cord) that maintain a constant morphology. Finally, regardless of the passage, the oxygen concentration does not effect on the phenotype of the cells. In contrast, a low oxygen concentration during expansion appears to decrease the doubling time of MSCs, promote chondrogenesis and inhibit osteogenic differentiation. Finally, whatever the culture conditions, adipogenic differentiation of WJ-MSC seems difficult to obtain

Influência de fatores de crescimento pró-angiogênicos na manutenção das características de células progenitoras mesenquimais derivadas do tecido adiposo / Influence of pro-angiogenic growth factors in the maintenance of mesenchymal stem cells characteristics derived from adipose tissue

Pimentel, Thaís Valéria Costa de Andrade 16 October 2015 (has links)
A manutenção do estado progenitor durante o cultivo de células mesenquimais progenitoras derivadas do tecido adiposo (MSCs-TA), caracterizado pelo potencial de diferenciação e da capacidade de autorrenovação, é atualmente um dos maiores desafios da terapia celular. Sabendo da influência da angiogênese no desenvolvimento de tecidos de origem mesenquimal, avaliamos se um ambiente pro-angiogênico mimetizado em cultura forneceria condições para manutenção de um estado progenitor durante o processo de expansão celular. Utilizando como modelo de um ambiente pró-angiogênico o cultivo no meio EGM-2, o qual é suplementado pelos fatores de crescimento EGF, FGF-2, IGF e VEGF, nós demonstramos que a presença de tais fatores pró-angiogênicos é fundamental para a manutenção do estado progenitor de MSCs-TA em cultura. Verificamos que a presença de tais fatores de crescimento possibilitaram às MSCs-TA apresentarem um alto potencial de diferenciação adipogênico e osteogênico em comparação ao meio convencional DMEM/F12 e ao meio EBM, ausente de fatores. Além disso, o cultivo na presença de fatores pró-angiogênicos aumentou o potencial clonogênico das MSCs-TA, ao mesmo tempo em que aumentou a capacidade proliferativa destas células. Dentre os fatores de crescimento, EGF e FGF-2 foram responsáveis pelos efeitos mais robustos. Ao mesmo tempo, células cultivadas nas presença destas citocinas foram capazes de manter a morfologia fibroblastóide e apresentaram alta expressão do fator de pluripotência Klf-4. Em concordância com estes achados, o transplante subcutâneo de MSCs-TA cultivadas nestas condições mostrou que aquelas mantidas em EGM-2 geram um tecido semelhante ao tecido formado pela fração estromal vascular não cultivada. Estes resultados reforçam o papel do ambiente pró-angiogênico na manutenção do estado progenitor de MSCs-TA, e que tal estado foi proporcionado pela ação dos fatores de crescimento pró-angiogênicos EGF, FGF-2, IGF e VEGF nas células em cultivo, com destaque para as citocinas EGF e FGF-2. Em conclusão, o uso do ambiente pró-angiogênico no cultivo de MSCs-TA mostrou-se como uma abordagem promissora para a manutenção do estado progenitor destas células in vitro. / The maintenance of the progenitor state in the culture of adipose tissue derived- mesenchymal progenitor cell (TA-MSCs), characterized by the differentiation potential and self-renewal capability, is currently one of the major challenges of cell therapy. The information that the angiogenesis influences the development of mesenchymal tissues, has led us to evaluate how a pro-angiogenic environment mimicked in culture would provide conditions for maintaining a progenitor state during the cell expansion process. We designe a model for a pro-angiogenic environment in which cells grown in EGM-2 supplemented with the following growth factors: EGF, FGF-2, IGF and VEGF, and demonstrated that the presence of such pro-angiogenic growth factors was crucial for maintenance of the progenitor of AT-MSCs in culture. We observed that the presence of such growth factors allowed to AT-MSCs a high potential of adipogenic and osteogenic differentiation compared to conventional DMEM/F12 medium and the EBM medium, in the absence of the factors. Furthermore, the culture in presence of pro-angiogenic growth factors increased the clonogenic potential of AT-MSCs and increased the proliferative capability of these cells. Among the growth factors, EGF and FGF-2 were responsible for most robust effects. At the same time, cells cultured in the presence of these cytokines were able to maintaining the fibroblastoid morphology and presented high expression levels of Klf-4 pluripotency factor. In agreement with these observations, the subcutaneous transplantation of AT-MSCs cultured under these conditions showed that those cells kept in EGM-2 generated a tissue-like to tissue formed by the stromal vascular fraction uncultivated. These results reinforce the role of the pro-angiogenic environment in the maintenance of the progenitor state of AT-MSCs, and that such a state was provided by the action of the pro-angiogenic growth factors EGF, FGF-2, IGF and VEGF in cultured cells, highlighting EGF and FGF-2 cytokines. In conclusion, we showed that the use of a pro-angiogenic environment in AT-MSCs culture is a promising approach to the maintain the progenitor state of these cells in vitro.
