AbstractBone marrow comprises heterogeneous cell populations and is thought to contain certain progenitors with the ability to differentiate into multiple mesenchymal cell lineages. To identify any differentiation plasticity of adult bone marrow stromal cells (BMSCs) into hepatocyte-like phenotypes, we developed a co-culture model with damaged liver tissue and an animal model of engraftment in cirrhotic liver via intra-portal transplantation. After 10 days of co-culture with injured liver tissues, BMSC expressed specific markers for hepatocytes by RT-PCR and Western blot. The two animal models for liver injury employed used carbon tetrachloride (CCl4) induction or bile duct ligation. For tracing BMSC resident in the liver after intra-portal transplantation, green fluorescent protein (GFP)-positive BMSCs or in situ hybdization of Y-chromosome Sry gene in male BMSC were used in a cross-sex transplantation model. Expression of hepatocyte-specific markers in recipients' liver tissues was determined by fluorescence immunohistochemistry. Our findings demonstrated that about 16% parenchyma cells were GFP-positive cells derived from infused BMSCs, and expression of albumin was detected in these cells in engrafted liver tissues. In conclusion, BMSCs exhibited hepatocyte-like phenotypes after co-cultivation with liver tissue and transplanted into the injured liver. The presented evidence indicated the trans differentiation potential of BMSC developing to the hepatocytes. © 2005 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
