The ability to identify the donor stem cells following transplantation into injured hearts is critical. This is particularly important in evaluating stem cell survival and lineage differentiation into mature cardiovascular cells. Several approaches have been employed for tracking the donor stem cells, including fluorescent dyes and fluorescent protein gene transfer. Here, we will induce a protocol using lentivirus-mediated green fluorescent protein (GFP) to monitor the fate of donor stem cells following transplantation.
移植到受损心脏后识别供体干细胞的能力至关重要。这在评估干细胞存活以及向成熟心血管细胞的谱系分化方面尤为重要。已经采用了几种方法来追踪供体干细胞,包括荧光染料和荧光蛋白基因转移。在此,我们将采用一种方案,利用慢病毒介导的绿色荧光蛋白(GFP)来监测移植后供体干细胞的命运。
