Abstract
Therapeutic ultrasound is a widely used application in clinics. The response to ultrasound is tissue specific and the parameters of ultrasonic treatments are decisive. Here, the responses of primary enteric (ENS) and central nervous system (CNS) neural stem cells were investigated to different frequency – energy density – combination treatments between 510 kHz–3 W s/cm2 and 4.36 MHz–25 W s/cm2. Responses to ultrasonic treatments were both frequency and energy density dependent. Ultrasound enhanced the expansion and showed enlarged neurospheres for both ENS and CNS neural stem cell cultures. Differentiation was not impaired in regard to neuronal and glial cell number as well as neurite and glial fiber outgrowth. Ultrasound is a promising tool to expand neural stem cells in vitro neither influencing neurogenesis nor gliogenesis by applying specific frequency – energy density – combinations.
超声治疗在临床上有着广泛的应用。超声的反应是组织特异性的,超声治疗的参数是决定性的。本研究研究了原代肠(ENS)和中枢神经系统(CNS)神经干细胞对510 kHz-3 W s/cm2和4.36 MHz-25 W s/cm2之间不同频率-能量密度组合处理的反应。对超声治疗的反应与频率和能量密度有关。超声增强了ENS和CNS神经干细胞培养的扩增并显示增大的神经球。在神经元和神经胶质细胞数量以及神经突和神经胶质纤维的生长方面,分化未受到损害。超声是体外扩增神经干细胞的一种很有前途的工具,既不影响神经发生,也不影响胶质瘤的发生,通过应用特定的频率-能量密度组合。
