Abstract: Objective To observe the feasibility of the differentiation of tree shrew (Tupaia belangeri) bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BM-MSCs) to neuron-like cells. Method The tree-shrew BM-MSCs were differentiated to neuron-like cells by IMEM differentiation culture mediums (with different inducer and concentration). Identify the secretion concentration of neuron-specific enolase (NES) and α-synuclein(α-SYN) by PCR. NES antibody was also used to identify cell immunofluorescence. Result The result of the tree-shrew BM-MSCs differentiation to neuron-like cells with IMEM cell culture differentiation mediums (10 μg/mL EGF and 20 μg/mL bFGF) were good on 12d in-vitro. Conclusion Optimized culture medium with double grow factors and differentiation method were more appropriated for tree shrew BM-MSCs differentiation to neuron-like cells, and the cells differentiated by this manner were consistent to neuron-like cells characteristics.
