本発明の分化誘導方法において、ポリマー多孔質膜上で増殖した神経幹細胞は、分化誘導条件下で培養することで分化誘導がなされる。神経幹細胞の分化誘導に関する具体的な工程は特に限定されない。本明細書に記載の工程を含め、膜状の担体に生育する神経幹細胞を分化誘導培地等の分化誘導環境に接触させるのに適した任意の手法を採用することが可能である。
ポリイミド多孔質膜上での神経幹細胞の培養
野生型マウス(C57BL/6J、日本クレア社より入手)の歯状回を含む海馬から神経幹細胞を採取した。細胞培養培地(D-MEM/Ham’s F-12、和光純薬工業社製)10mlを含む容器(ベントキャップ付組織培養用フラスコ(付着性細胞用表面処理済)、旭硝子社製)中で、上記で採取した神経幹細胞を8日間培養した。神経幹細胞のスフェロイドを培地から回収し、それを酵素(アキュターゼ (商標)(ナカライテスク社))で処理することよってスフェロイドを分解し、神経幹細胞を含む細胞培養培地懸濁液を調製した。滅菌した1.8cm角の正方形のポリイミド多孔質膜と培養培地(D-MEM/Ham’s F-12、和光純薬工業社製)とを含む容器(組織培養用ディッシュ(付着性細胞用表面処理済)、旭硝子社製)に上記の神経幹細胞の懸濁液を添加し、培養を開始した。培養を開始してから10日後にポリイミド多孔質膜を新しい細胞培養培地を含む容器に移し替えた。その後は3日経過するごとに、ポリイミド多孔質膜を新しい細胞培養培地を含む容器に移し替えた。培養を開始してから10日後の神経幹細胞の光学顕微鏡写真を図2に示す。また、培養開始10日後及び70日後に、培養培地中に遊離した神経幹細胞のスフェロイドを回収し、免疫染色を行った。免疫染色は4%PFAで細胞を固定の上、0.1%triton X-100で処理し、ブロッキングを行った後、一次抗体を4℃にて一晩反応させ、二次抗体を室温にて一時間反応させた。顕微鏡写真を図3及び4に示す。70日経過後であっても、神経幹細胞が未分化のままで維持された(図4)。また、培養開始30日後にポリイミド多孔質膜上で成長しているスフィロイドにDNA合成指示薬であるEdUを短時間取り込ませ、スフィロイド中の分裂S期細胞核を蛍光ラベルした(図5及び6)。ポリイミド多孔質膜内外で細胞が増殖していることが示された。
ポリイミド多孔質膜上で培養した神経幹細胞の分化誘導
上記実施例1で培養開始10日後および70日後に回収された神経幹細胞のスフェロイドに対して、分化誘導剤(PDGF、フォルスコリンまたはBMP2)を添加し、5日間培養した後に免疫染色を行った。顕微鏡写真を図7~13に示す。培養を開始してから70日経過後の神経幹細胞であっても、分化能を維持していることが示された(図10~13)。
ポリイミド多孔質膜上での神経幹細胞の長期間培養、及び長期間培養後の神経幹細胞の分化誘導
上記実験例1に準じて、1.8cm角の正方形のポリイミド多孔質膜上で神経幹細胞を培養した。培養開始30日後、別途用意した1.8cm角の正方形のポリイミド多孔質膜を、神経幹細胞を培養させたポリイミド多孔質膜の上に、両方のポリイミド多孔質膜のA面同士が重なるように配置し、培養を継続した。新たに追加したポリイミド多孔質膜によって、細胞培養可能な空間が増大した。その後7日毎に、別途用意した1.8cm角の正方形のポリイミド多孔質膜を、神経幹細胞を培養させたポリイミド多孔質膜の上に、両方のポリイミド多孔質膜のA面同士が重なるように配置して培養空間を適宜増大させながら培養を継続することにより、最終的に神経幹細胞を225日間培養することができた。
