We investigated the effect of LIF on the differentiation of trophoblasts. Isolated cytotrophoblasts were cultured with and without LIF and cell smears were immunocytochemically analyzed, using anti-hCG antibody. The percentage of differentiated trophoblasts stimulated by 10ng/ml of LIF was about 2.5-fold that in the control culture. The effect of LIF in inducing the differentiation of cytotrophoblasts to syncytiotrophoblasts was dose-dependent. The same effect was shown when hCG was added to the medium. This enhancing effect of LIF on trophoblast differentiation was blocked by adding anti-hCG antibody to the culture system. These results indicate that LIF enhanced trophoblast differentiation by stimulating hCG production in trophoblasts, and not by exerting a direct effect on the trophoblasts.
我们研究了白血病抑制因子(LIF)对滋养层细胞分化的影响。将分离出的细胞滋养层细胞分别在添加和不添加LIF的条件下进行培养,并使用抗人绒毛膜促性腺激素(hCG)抗体对细胞涂片进行免疫细胞化学分析。10纳克/毫升的LIF刺激下分化的滋养层细胞百分比约为对照培养中的2.5倍。LIF诱导细胞滋养层细胞分化为合体滋养层细胞的作用呈剂量依赖性。向培养基中添加hCG时也显示出相同的效果。通过向培养系统中添加抗hCG抗体,可阻断LIF对滋养层细胞分化的这种增强作用。这些结果表明,LIF通过刺激滋养层细胞中hCG的产生来增强滋养层细胞分化,而不是对滋养层细胞产生直接作用。
