We measured the intracellular zinc ion concentration of murine fetal neural stem/progenitor cells (NSPCs) and that in the differentiated cells. The NSPCs cultured with 1.5 μM Zn proliferated slightly faster than that in the zinc-deficient medium and the intracellular zinc concentration of the NSPCs and that of their differentiated cells (DCs) cultured with 1.5 μM Zn was 1.34-fold and 2.00-fold higher than those in the zinc-deficient medium, respectively. The zinc transporter genes upregulated over the 3.5-fold change were Zip1, Zip4, Zip12, Zip13, ZnT1, ZnT8, and ZnT10 whereas the only downregulated one was Zip8 during the differentiation of NSPCs to DCs. The cell morphologies of both NSPCs and DCs in the low oxygen culture condition consisting of 2%O and 5%CO, the high carbon dioxide condition consisting of 21%O and 10%CO, and the normal condition consisting of 21%O and 5%CO were essentially the same each other. The expression of Zip4, Zip8, Zip12, and Zip14 was not drastically changed depending on the O and CO concentrations.
我们测量了胎鼠神经干细胞/祖细胞(NSPCs)及其分化细胞的细胞内锌离子浓度。在缺锌培养基中培养的 NSPCs 增殖速度略快于缺锌培养基,在缺锌培养基中培养的 NSPCs 和其分化细胞(DCs)的细胞内锌浓度分别是缺锌培养基中的 1.34 倍和 2.00 倍。锌转运体基因在 NSPC 向 DC 分化过程中上调超过 3.5 倍,上调的基因为 Zip1、Zip4、Zip12、Zip13、ZnT1、ZnT8 和 ZnT10,而下调的唯一基因是 Zip8。在由 2%O 和 5%CO 组成的低氧培养条件、由 21%O 和 10%CO 组成的高二氧化碳条件和由 21%O 和 5%CO 组成的正常条件下,NSPCs 和 DCs 的细胞形态彼此基本相同。Zip4、Zip8、Zip12 和 Zip14 的表达并不取决于 O 和 CO 浓度的变化而有明显变化。
