Abstract:
Lentiviral vector infection of enhanced green fluorescent protein fluorescence reporter genes in enteric neural crest-derived cells maintained efficient, stable, long-term labeling and the infected enteric neural crest-derived cells could survive, proliferate, and express fluorescent reporter genes. However, the method does not show whether there is some defined or undefined toxicity to the enteric neural crest-derived cells, which may affect enteric neural crest-derived cells' properties. Here, we evaluated the enteric neural crest-derived cells properties under the influence of lentivirus infection of enhanced green fluorescent protein fluorescence reporter genes. This study used the cell count kit-8 for measurement of vitality, transwell for cell migration, immunocytochemistry for cell count and identification, and tested the apoptosis of the enteric neural crest-derived cells with flow cytometry. The enteric neural crest-derived cells with or without lentivirus and their derivative enteric neural crest-derived cells could form characteristic neurospheres, and maintain their level of fluorescent label steady. When cultured under inducing conditions, enteric neural crest-derived cells differentiated into neurons and glia. The results showed that the enteric neural crest-derived cells with or without lentivirus showed no significant difference in viability, migration, apoptosis, neuronal, and glial ratio. The study identified that lentivirus can be used in a nontoxic manner for infection of enhanced green fluorescent protein fluorescence reporter genes into enteric neural crest-derived cells.
