Abstract Objective: We aimed to provide an alternative cell source for cell therapy in leukoaraiosis (LA).
Methods: Olfactory ensheathing cells (OECs) from the olfactory bulb were isolated,cultured,and purified.Next,the lentivirus carrying human VEGF165 gene was constructed and transfected into OECs.
Results: The proliferative capacity of primary OECs was strong.OECs were infected with different multiplicity of infection.The expression level of VEGF was confirmed by real-time PCR with specific primers for GAPDH and VEGF,indicating that the genetically engineered OECs-VEGF produced VEGF with functional activity.
Conclusions: Our data showed that these engineered OECs-VEGF highly express functional VEGF and retain the characteristics of astrocytes and Schwann cells,providing an alternative cell source for cell therapy in LA.
