Description

The present application claims priority to Chinese Patent Application No. 202110392680.6 filed to the China National Intellectual Property Administration (CNIPA) on Apr. 13, 2021 and entitled “PREPARATION METHOD AND RECOVERY METHOD OF PARIDUVAL MESENCHYMAL STEM CELLS (PMSCs)”, which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety.


TECHNICAL FIELD

The present disclosure relates to the field of biotechnology, and in particular to a preparation method and a recovery method of pariduval mesenchymal stem cells (PMSCs).


BACKGROUND

Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are pluripotent progenitor cells with tumor chemotaxis, and the research on the application of MSCs in gynecologic oncology has made significant progress. However, there are different reports on the influence of uterus-derived MSCs on the biological behaviors of gynecological malignant tumor cells. The adaptability and selectivity of PMSCs for gynecological tumors are studied to develop a new method for clinical treatment of gynecological tumors.


PMSCs have the characteristics of simple enrichment cultivation in vitro, no violation of ethics, strong migration ability, homing to tumor cells, low immunogenicity, and the like. Since bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (BM-MSCs) are difficult to acquire and involve medical ethics, PMSCs can be used as a new carrier instead of BM-MSCs for tumor biotherapy. However, it is reported that maternal MSCs show different effects on the biological behaviors of malignant tumor cells, and thus the study on the adaptability and selectivity of PMSCs for various malignant tumors is a basis to determine whether PMSCs can be used as a carrier for malignant tumor treatment.


The existing PMSC acquisition method includes: separating a parietal decidua tissue and crushing it, and then cultivating the resulting cells adherently in a complete medium (Dulbecco's Modified Eagle Medium (DMEM) with 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS)) for 30 d. The conventional cryopreservation method for PMSCs includes: programmed cooling in a complete medium with 10% dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO), and then cryopreservation in liquid nitrogen.


PMSCs are difficult to climb out of a tissue and grow adherently with the existing preparation method of PMSCs, and the existing medium cannot effectively promote the growth of PMSCs, such that the acquired cells are in a low concentration and have a poor quality, which compromises an inhibitory effect of PMSCs on tumor cells. In addition, the existing cryopreservation and recovery methods for PMSCs cannot effectively maintain the cell viability and biological function, and cannot guarantee that cells recovered in each batch show similar cell viabilities.

FIG. 3 shows overlay images taken sequentially from left to right according to a distribution of Hela cells in the well plate (with an area occupied by the upper chamber of the chamber as a distribution center of Hela cells), where the left panel is a morphological image of Hela cells on an outer edge of the well plate after co-cultivation for 3 d in the low-concentration group, the middle panel is a morphological image of Hela cells in a transition circle of the well plate after co-cultivation for 3 d in the low-concentration group, and the right panel is a morphological image of Hela cells in a center of the well plate after co-cultivation for 3 d in the low-concentration group. FIG. 4 shows overlay images taken sequentially from left to right according to a distribution of Hela cells in the well plate (with an area occupied by the upper chamber of the chamber as a distribution center of Hela cells), where the left panel is a morphological image of Hela cells on an outer edge of the well plate after co-cultivation for 3 d in the medium-concentration group, the middle panel is a morphological image of Hela cells in a transition circle of the well plate after co-cultivation for 3 d in the medium-concentration group, and the right panel is a morphological image of Hela cells in a center of the well plate after co-cultivation for 3 d in the medium-concentration group.

Since no PMSC medium is added to co-cultivate with Hela cells in the blank group, an inhibition rate on the growth of Hela cells is zero in the blank group; and the higher the concentration of the PMSC medium, the higher the inhibition rate on the growth of Hela cells.

FIG. 8 shows overlay images taken sequentially from left to right according to a distribution of MCF-7 cells in the well plate (with an area occupied by the upper chamber of the chamber as a distribution center of cells), where the left panel is a morphological image of MCF-7 cells on an outer edge of the well plate after co-cultivation for 3 d in the low-concentration group, the middle panel is a morphological image of MCF-7 cells in a transition circle of the well plate after co-cultivation for 3 d in the low-concentration group, and the right panel is a morphological image of MCF-7 cells in a center of the well plate after co-cultivation for 3 d in the low-concentration group. FIG. 9 shows overlay images taken sequentially from left to right according to a distribution of MCF-7 cells in the well plate (with an area occupied by the upper chamber of the chamber as a distribution center of cells), where the left panel is a morphological image of MCF-7 cells on an outer edge of the well plate after co-cultivation for 3 d in the medium-concentration group, the middle panel is a morphological image of MCF-7 cells in a transition circle of the well plate after co-cultivation for 3 d in the medium-concentration group, and the right panel is a morphological image of MCF-7 cells in a center of the well plate after co-cultivation for 3 d in the medium-concentration group.

It can be seen from FIG. 8 to FIG. 10 that the closer to the chamber carrying PMSCs, the sparser the MCF-7 cells; and the MCF-7 cells migrate from the outer edge to the center of the chamber. The cell morphological images in FIG. 8 to FIG. 10 obviously show that there are significant differences among different concentrations of PMSCs in the inhibition effect on the proliferation of the same MCF-7 cells; and within a PMSC concentration range selected in this example, the higher the PMSC concentration, the more significant the inhibition on the proliferation of MCF-7 cells.



FIG. 11 shows the inhibition on the proliferation of MCF-7 cells after the MCF-7 cells are co-cultivated with PMSC media at different concentrations. Since no PMSC medium is added to co-cultivate with MCF-7 cells in the blank group, an inhibition rate on the growth of MCF-7 cells is zero in the blank group; and the higher the concentration of the PMSC medium, the higher the inhibition rate on the growth of MCF-7 cells.

A preparation method of the feverfew alcohol extract was as follows:


S51. a feverfew was crushed to 100 mesh to obtain a feverfew powder; and


S52. the feverfew powder was added to a 60 wt % ethanol solution, extraction was conducted at 75° C. for 90 min, and an extract was filtered out and dried to obtain the feverfew alcohol extract, where a weight ratio of the feverfew powder to the ethanol solution was 1:9.


The allogeneic PMSCs prepared in Examples 1 and 5 and Comparative Examples 1 and 2 were stained with trypan blue and counted with a CountStar cell counter. A cell viability=number of viable cells/total number of cells×100%. Test results were shown in Table 1.

It can be seen from Table 1 that, the addition of the feverfew extract in Example 5 can significantly improve the cell viability. From the comparison of the feverfew water extract and the feverfew alcohol extract, it can be seen that the different feverfew extraction methods can significantly affect the improvement effect on the cell viability, and the feverfew extract obtained by the steam distillation method in Example 5 can significantly improve the cell viability.


The above examples are merely a part rather than all of the examples of the present disclosure. All other examples obtained by persons based on these examples without creative efforts shall fall within a protection scope of the present disclosure.
