Culturas de explantes microdissecado pode ser usado de forma confiável e reprodutível isolar populações de células contendo uma proporção muito alta (~ 85%) de Myf-5 proliferativa positiva células do músculo esquelético haste (SMSC). Sob as condições de cultura rigorosamente controlados descritas aqui as culturas de explante primário pode ser usado para caracterizar os comportamentos de crescimento de rato geneticamente mutantes SMSC e pode ser usado como um meio de geração de miotubos de detalhada análise in vitro dos processos de diferenciação. Manutenção cuidadosa e manipulação dessas culturas permite a longo prazo de cultura e de expansão. Usando os métodos descritos aqui também é possível derivar clonal músculo esquelético linhas de células estaminais a partir de culturas de explantes, por meio da diluição única célula. Para alcançar a proliferação de células isoladas único durante o procedimento de clonagem, &quot;meio condicionado&quot; é usado para imitar a exigência normal destas células de alta densidade de cultura. O método é aplicável (com modificação) para embrionárias, tecidos adultos e idosos, adultos e, além de mouse pode ser usado para isolar as células dos músculos esqueléticos de outras espécies, incluindo humanos (Rao e Smith, não publicado), embrião de galinha e peixe ( salmão) 24. SMSC clonalmente derivados podem ser analisadas in vivo por via intramuscular transplante e sob essas condições injetado SMSC irá combinar com miotubos hospedeiro para formar fibras musculares híbrido. SMSC por via intramuscular injetado não formam tumores e foram encontrados nos músculos anfitrião na posição das células satélites mais de um ano após a injeção, sugerindo que eles estão sujeitos a controle endógeno pelo satélite células-tronco niche.These célula pode ser re-isolado injetado hosts como SMSC proliferativa mais de 12 meses após a injeção anfitrião 19.

adult and embryonic skeletal muscle microexplant culture and isolation of skeletal muscle stem cells

Cultivadas embrionárias e adultas células do músculo esquelético têm uma série de diferentes usos. O micro-dissecados técnica de explantes descritos neste capítulo é um método robusto e confiável para isolar um número relativamente grande de proliferação de células do músculo esquelético juvenil, adulto ou músculos embrionárias como fonte de células-tronco do músculo esquelético. Os autores usaram micro-dissecados culturas de explantes para analisar as características de crescimento de células musculares esqueléticas em músculos do tipo selvagem e distrófica. Cada um dos componentes do crescimento do tecido, ou seja, a sobrevivência celular, proliferação de senescência, ea diferenciação podem ser analisados ​​separadamente, utilizando os métodos descritos aqui. O efeito líquido de todos os componentes do crescimento pode ser estabelecida por meio de medir as taxas de crescimento dos explantes. O método de micro-explante pode ser usado para estabelecer culturas primárias de uma ampla gama de tipos de músculos diferentes e idades e, como descrito aqui, foi adaptado pelos autores para permitir o isolamento de embriões precursoras de músculo esquelético. Excepcionalmente, micro-explante culturas têm sido usadas para derivar clonal (origem única célula) de células-tronco do músculo esquelético (SMSC) linhas que podem ser expandidos e utilizados para in vivo o transplante. Em SMSC vivo transplantado comportar-se como funcional, de tecidos específicos, células satélites que contribuem para a regeneração do músculo esquelético de fibra, mas que também são retidos (no nicho de células satélites), como um pequeno grupo de células-tronco indiferenciadas, que podem ser re-isoladas em cultura pelo método de micro-explante.
