To investigate the effects of mouse hepatic stellate cells (mHSCs) activated by transcription factor β1 (TGF-β1) on mouse hepatic progenitor cells (mHPCs) differentiation.
Methods
2
After the mHSCs were treated with 10 ng/mL TGF-β1 for 48 h
the cells were assigned into activation group (mHSCs-TGF-β1)
and those without treatment served as control group (mHSCs).Activation of mHSCs was detected by qRT-PCR and Western blotting.mHPCs were isolated from fetal livers based on the cell surface antigen delta-like protein 1 (Dlk1) by a fluorescence-activated cell sorter (FACS)
and the expression of alpha-fetoprotein (AFP)
albumin (ALB)
and cytokeratin 19 (CK19) was observed by immunocytochemical assay.Then the obtained mHPCs and mHSCs were co-cultured in a Transwell system for 6 d.Immunocytochemical assay and qRT-PCR were used to detect the expression of differentiation markers in mHPCs+mHSCs-TGF-β1 group
mHPCs+mHSCs group and mHPCs group.
Results
2
The mRNA levels of a-SMA
TGF-β1
TGF-β-R1
Jagged1
HGF and VEGF
and protein levels of TGF-β1
a-SMA
TGF-β-R1 and Jagged1 were significantly higher in the activation group (
P
<
0.01);Freshly sorted mHPCs by FACS expressed AFP and low level of ALB but not CK19 in the cytoplasm.In the mHPCs+mHSCs-TGF-β1 group
mHPCs highly expressed duct-specific markers in the cytoplasm
and the mRNA levels of CK19
SOX9 and Hes1 were obviously higher than the other 2 groups of cells. But the ALB and AFP expression was more obvious in the 2 groups (
