In recent years, buccal pouch oral mucosa cells were used as a source of potential biological grafting material in advanced tissue engineering. However, there are several limitations in the process of graft fabrication: donor and recipient patient availability as well as an incomplete knowledge of in vitro procedures related to tissue surgical recovery, in vitro cell culture (IVC) and/or tissue processing in “human somatic cell therapy.” Therefore, the animal model for oral mucosa grafting is still recognized as a source for xenografts and a useful model for biomedical research. In this study, the porcine buccal pouch oral mucosa cells were used in analysis of the stromalization/epithelialization process during short-term, in vitro real-time cell proliferation. We evaluated cytokeratin 18 (CK18), cytokeratin 8 + 18 + 19 (panCK), and vimentin (Vim) expression as epithelial and stromal cell markers, respectively. The porcine buccal pouch oral mucosa cells were cultured in vitro for 168 h, and the protein expression/ distribution was analyzed every 24 h during real-time cell proliferation. In our analysis of protein expression using fluorescence intensity (FI), followed by confocal microscopic observations, we found the highest expression of CK18 occurred after 24 h of IVC, panCK after 72 h, and Vim after 48 h of IVC, as compared to other cultivation periods. We also found a substantial increase in Vim expression (3-4 fold) as compared to CK18 and panCK, and all of the investigated proteins were distributed in the cellular cytoplasm. The lag phase of cell proliferation occurred during the first 24 h of IVC, whereas the log phase was observed between 24 h-120 h of IVC. Throughout 7 days of IVC, statistically significant differences were found in Cell Index (CI) of the analyzed cells. Increased Vim expression in buccal pouch oral mucosa cells, as compared to CK18 and panCK, suggested that the stromal cells substantially predominated during in vitro cell cultivation. This may be a result of significant specificity of porcine oral mucosa cells isolated from the buccal pouch.
