  • STIMULATION OF INSULIN-LIKE GROWTH FACTOR-I TO CHONDROGENESIS OF ENGINEERING CARTILAGE TISSUE

    Objective To explore the ability of insulin-like growth factor-Ⅰ (IGF-Ⅰ) and hyaluracan acid in prompting chondrogenesis of engineering cartilage tissue.Methods Human articular chondrocytes were isolatedand cultured in DMEM plus 10% fetal bovine serum. They were divided into three groups:hyaluracan acid+chondrocytes + IGF-Ⅰ group(IGF-Ⅰ group), hyaluracan acid+chondrocytes group(cell group), hyaluracan acid group(control group). The ability of chondrogenesis was investigated by HE and toluidine blue staining, human collagen Ⅱ immunohistochemistry and reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR).Results Both cell group and IGF-Ⅰ group could develop into cartilage tissue in the sixth week while control group could not. The number of cartilage lacuna in IGF-Ⅰ group were more than that in cell group. Human collagen Ⅱ immunohistochemistry showed that there were ber positive cell in IGF-Ⅰ group than in cell group, collagen Ⅱ mRNA expression was more higher and collagen Ⅰ mRNA expression was lower in IGF-Ⅰ group than in cell group. Conclusion Insulin growth factorⅠ can prompt chondrogenesis of engineering cartilage tissue and ameliorate the quality of engineering cartilage tissue in vitro.
