| 概要 | OBJECTIVE: The study aimed to assess the feasibility of creating and transplanting human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cell sheets applied to a rat model of hysterotomy, and additionally to determine benefits of human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cell sheet transplantation in reducing uterine fibrosis and scarring.STUDY DESIGN: Human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cell sheets are generated by culturing human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells on thermo-responsive cell culture plates. The temperature-sensitive property of these culture dishes facilitates normal cell culture in a thin contiguous layer and allows for reliable recovery of intact stem cell sheets without use of destructive proteolytic enzymes.We developed a rat hysterotomy model using nude rats. The rat uterus has two distinct horns: one horn provided a control/untreated scarring site, while the second horn was the cell sheet transplantation site.On day 14 following surgery, complete uteri were harvested and subjected to histologic evaluations of all hysterotomy sites.RESULTS: The stem cell sheet culture process yielded human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cell sheets with surface area of approximately 1 cm2.Mean myometrial thickness in the cell sheet-transplanted group was 274 µm compared with 191 µm in the control group (p = 0.02). Mean fibrotic surface area in the human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cell sheet-transplanted group was 95,861 µm2 compared with 129,185 µm2 in the control group. Compared with control horn sites, cell sheet-transplanted horns exhibited significantly smaller fibrotic-to-normal myometrium ratios (0.18 vs. 0.27, respectively, p = 0.029). Mean number of fibroblasts in cell sheet-transplanted horns was significantly smaller than the control horns (483 vs. 716/mm2, respectively, p = 0.001). |
