2. Detection results and analysis
1. Example 1 and comparative example 1
Specific results of measuring the positive rate of CXCR4 in the cells of example 1 and comparative example 1 are shown in FIG. 1.
FIG. 1 is a flow chart showing positive rates of definitive endoderm cells of example 1 and comparative example 1, wherein "0" is comparative example 1. The results show that the use of Verteporfin in example 1 significantly increases the proportion of CXCR4 positive cells compared to the 56% or so positive rate of comparative example 1. At this time, the cell state is still normal, and the proportion of CXCR4 positive cells can be as high as about 93-96% under the control of 0.1 and 0.5 mu M Verteporfin. For comparative example 1, differentiation efficiency of about 90% was usually achieved by 4-5 days, whereas the addition of Verteporfin in example 1 reduced the differentiation time to 3 days to achieve comparable differentiation levels, reducing the time required for definitive endoderm cell differentiation. The addition of Verteporfin can effectively improve the differentiation efficiency of definitive endoderm and reduce the time required for differentiation.
2. Example 2, example 3 and comparative example 2
The mRNA expression levels of the flow type, definitive endoderm marker genes FOXA2, SOX17 of the cell CXCR4 positive rate in example 2, example 3 and comparative example 2 were examined, and immunofluorescence results were shown in fig. 2 to 4.
FIG. 2 shows immunofluorescence and statistical results of the effect of Verteporfin and Verteporfin+2% sucrose combination on the expression of human embryonic stem cells toward endodermal differentiation marker genes in comparison of example 2, example 3 and comparative example 2. In the "blank" group of comparative example 2, the proportion of cells positive for the definitive endoderm marker gene FOXA2 was detected by immunofluorescence, and the statistical result was about 50%, and the same result was seen from the immunofluorescence photograph. Example 2 is a "0.5 μ MVerteporfin" treated cell in which the FOXA2 positive cell fraction was statistically about 70%, demonstrating that the Verteporfin treatment was effective in increasing the differentiation efficiency of definitive endoderm cells. Example 3 is a "0.5. Mu.M Verteporfin+2% sucrose" treated cell in which the ratio of FOXA2 positive cells was statistically about 75%, demonstrating that the combined use of Verteporfin and sucrose was effective in promoting differentiation of definitive endoderm cells.
FIG. 3 is a flow chart showing the effect of Verteporfin and Verteporfin+2% sucrose in combination on expression of human embryonic stem cells toward endodermal differentiation marker genes, as shown in comparison of example 2, example 3 and comparative example 2. By flow cytometric detection of the proportion of CXCR4 positive cells, we can see that the proportion of CXCR4 positive cells in the "control group of comparative example 2 is approximately 50%. The "0.5 μm Verteporfin treated" group of example 2 had a CXCR4 positive cell fraction of approximately 85% with a very significant improvement in definitive endoderm differentiation efficiency compared to comparative example 2. Example 3 is a "0.5 μm verteporfin+2% sucrose" treated cell, wherein the proportion of CXCR4 positive cells was statistically about 85%, demonstrating that the combined use of Verteporfin and sucrose effectively increases the differentiation efficiency of definitive endoderm cells.
FIG. 4 shows the quantitative PCR results of the effects of Verteporfin and Verteporfin+2% sucrose combination on the expression of human embryonic stem cells toward endodermal differentiation marker genes in comparison of example 2, example 3 and comparative example 2. The 2.5-fold increase in FOXA2 expression and 5-fold increase in SOX17 expression levels in example 2 compared to comparative example 2, indicates that 0.5 μ MVerteporfin in example 2 can effectively increase the differentiation efficiency of definitive endoderm cells. The 2.7-fold increase in FOXA2 expression and 4.5-fold increase in SOX17 expression levels in example 3 compared to comparative example 2, indicates that 0.5 μm verteporfin+2% sucrose in example 3 can effectively increase the differentiation efficiency of definitive endoderm cells.
The results in FIGS. 2, 3 and 4 are consistent, and all show that the addition of Verteporfin can significantly promote the differentiation of definitive endoderm, and that the combination of Verteporfin and sucrose can also promote the differentiation of definitive endoderm. Meanwhile, for comparative example 2, differentiation efficiency of about 90% is often required to be achieved by 4-5 days, while the use of Verteporfin or the combined use of Verteporfin and sucrose in examples 2 and 3 can achieve a comparable differentiation level by shortening the differentiation time to 3 days, thereby reducing the time required for differentiation of definitive endoderm cells.
Finally, it is also noted that the terms "comprises," "comprising," or any other variation thereof, are intended to cover a non-exclusive inclusion, such that a process, method, article, or apparatus that comprises a list of elements does not include only those elements but may include other elements not expressly listed or inherent to such process, method, article, or apparatus.
While preferred embodiments of the present invention have been described, additional variations and modifications in those embodiments may occur to those skilled in the art once they learn of the basic inventive concepts. It is therefore intended that the following claims be interpreted as including the preferred embodiments and all such alterations and modifications as fall within the scope of the invention.
It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that various modifications and variations can be made to the present invention without departing from the spirit or scope of the invention. Thus, it is intended that the present invention also include such modifications and alterations insofar as they come within the scope of the appended claims or the equivalents thereof.
