OBJECTIVE: To isolate and characterize mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) derived from bone marrow of Banna minipig inbred line (BMI). METHODS: BMI-MSCs was isolated from bone marrow by density gradient centrifugation and cultured in DMEM (containing 15% bovine serum) at 37 degrees C with humidified 5% CO2. These cultured stem cells were characterized in clonal growth, expression of specific markers and capability of differentiation. RESULTS: Mesenchymal stem cells were proliferative and could be expanded rapidly in vitro. Clonal growth of these cells can be observed when small amount of cells was inoculated. These cells were SH2, SH3, SH4, SB10 and SB21 positive. And it was proved that these cells possess osteo-differentiation ability, up-regulated alkaline phosphatase expression and calcium secretion after osteosupplement was added into the media for several days. CONCLUSION: Mesenchymal stem cells derived from bone marrow of BMI possess the general characters of stem cell.
