摘要
AIM: To evaluate the feasibility of mesenchymal stem cells(MSCs) to differentiate into corneal epithelial cells after being seeded on the decellularized small incision lenticule extraction(SMILE)-derived lenticules. METHODS: The fresh lenticules procured from patients undergoing SMILE for the correction of myopia were decellularized. The MSCs were subsequently cultivated on those denuded lenticules. The MSCs without lenticules were used as a control. The proliferation activity of the MSCs after seeding 24 h was quantitatively determined with the Cell Counting Kit-8(CCK-8) assay. Immunofluorescence staining and quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction(qRT-PCR) were used to assess the marker expression in differentiated MSCs. RESULTS: The data showed that both fresh and decellularized lenticules could significantly promote the proliferation of MSCs, compared to that in control(P=0.02 for fresh lenticules, P=0.001 for decellularize ones, respectively). The MSCs seeded on both lenticules were positive for cytokeratin 3(CK3) staining. The expression of CK3 increased 5-fold in MSCs seeded on fresh lenticules and 18-fold on decellularized ones, compared to that in control. There was a significant difference in the expression of CK3 in MSCs seeded on fresh and decellularized lenticules(P<0.001). The expression of CK8 and CK18 was similar in pure MSCs and MSCs seeded on fresh lenticules(P>0.05), while the expression of these markers was decreased in MSCs seeded on decellularized ones. CONCLUSION: These results suggest that the decellularized lenticules might be more suitable for MSCs to differentiate into corneal epithelial cells, which offersthe prospect of a novel therapeutic modality of SMILEderived lenticules in regenerative corneal engineering.
