Abstract
FL or WISH cells, originating from the human amnion, were grafted intramuscularly into various strains of mice.
-
1.
When grafted, cells of both lines evoked cartilage formation in their vicinity, provided that the animals were pretreated with cortisone (5 mg) or ACTH (36 u).
-
2.
No host strain differences were found in respect to the cartilage induction.
-
3.
Cartilage was replaced by bone, tissue, which was gradually resorbed within two months.
-
4.
Grafting the FL cells into animals treated with hydrocortisone or imuran and into newborn or X-irradiated mice failed to induce cartilage or bone tissue.
Résumé
Les cellules FL ou WISH provenant de l'amnios humain ont été greffées à des souris d'espèces diverses par voie intramusculaire:
-
1.
Les cellules des deux lignées, greffées à des animaux traités préalablement par la cortisone ou l'ACTH, provoquent la formation du cartilage au voisinage du tissu transplanté.
-
2.
Le méme resultat a été obtenu chez toutes les souris examinées, sans différence selon les espèces.
-
3.
Le cartilage a été remplacé, par de l'os, qui est graduellement résorbé en deux mois.
-
4.
Les cellules FL greffées aux animaux traités par l'hydrocortisone ou l'imurane, ainsi qu'a des animaux irradiés et des souris nouveau-nées, ne provoquent ni la formation de cartilage ni celle d'os.
Zusammenfassung
Menschliche amniotische FL- und WISH-Zellen wurden verschiedenen Mäusestämmen intramuskulär implantiert:
-
1.
Implantierung der beiden Zellreihen in Mäuse, die gleichzeitig mit Cortison oder ACTH behandelt wurden, führten zur Knorpelbildung in der Umgebung der implantierten Zellen.
-
2.
Bei keinem der untersuchten Mäusestämme konnten Unterschiede hinsichtlich der Anregung zur Knorpelbildung festgestellt werden.
-
3.
Knorpel wurde durch Knochengewebe ersetzt und letzters innerhalb von 2 Monaten allmählich resorbiert.
-
4.
Implantation der FL-Zellen in die mit Hydrocortison oder Imuran behandelten oder röntgenbestrahlten oder neugeborenen Mäuse führte zu keiner Knorpel- oder Knocheninduktion.
