摘要:: Embryonic stem (ES) cells hold promise as a source for cell transplantation treatment of diseases such as type I diabetes. Further, cells releasing bioactive substances from ES cell progeny may be concentrated and purified for clinical applications. Although ES cell lines that express reporter genes have been established to isolate cells releasing bioactive substances, other difficulties must be overcome before these genetically modified cells can be used for gene therapy in human patients. Fluorescence- or magnetic-activated cell sorters are commonly used to isolate specific cells using antibodies against cell surface antigens. However, for some cells, such as insulin-producing beta cells, specific surface antigens have not yet been identified. In this study, we developed a simple and efficient method to identify and purify insulin- and alpha-fetoprotein-producing cells. A nitrocellulose membrane treated with anti-insulin or anti-alpha-fetoprotein antibodies was placed on a cell layer to trap insulin or alpha-fetoprotein released from the cells. The location of specific substance-producing cells was identified by immunostaining the membrane. The insulin-releasing cells were selectively collected from the culture dish using a cloning ring and transferred to another culture plate.
