Differentiation of human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells into functional intestinal epithelial cells via conditioned medium co-culture
Background
The induction of stem cell differentiation to generate intestinal epithelial cells (IECs) with absorptive functions offers significant therapeutic potential for treating conditions such as Crohn’s disease, ulcerative colitis, radiation enteritis, and other refractory intestinal epithelial injuries. Human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells (hUC-MSCs) are capable of differentiating into functional IEC-like cells.
Objective
This study aimed to induce the differentiation of hUC-MSCs into IECs using a conditioned medium co-culture method.
Method
A culture medium derived from human IECs was used as the inductive medium to facilitate the differentiation of hUC-MSCs into IECs. The cellular morphology was assessed using inverted microscopy, and the expression of IEC markers, including Villin, CK20, CK8, and CK18 proteins, was analyzed via immunofluorescence staining. Furthermore, the expression levels of IEC markers, such as KRT18, were quantified using real-time quantitative PCR analysis. The functionality of the differentiated IECs in terms of sucrase secretion was assessed through sucrase activity assays.
Results
By the 14th day of induction, hUC-MSCs exhibited a morphology similar to IECs and exhibited the expression of IEC markers, including the KRT18 gene and Villin, CK20, CK8, and CK18 proteins. Sucrase activity assays further confirmed that the differentiated cells demonstrated significant sucrase activity.
Conclusion
The conditioned medium co-culture method effectively induced the differentiation of hUC-MSCs into functional IECs.
