الوصف: Previous work showed a link between Tie2+ nucleus pulposus progenitor cells (NPPC) and disc degeneration. However, NPPC remain difficult to maintain in culture. Here, we report whole tissue culture (WTC) combined with fibroblast growth factor 2 (FGF2) and chimeric FGF (cFGF) supplementation to support and enhance NPPC and Tie2 expression. We also examined the role of PI3K/Akt and MEK/ERK pathways in FGF2 and cFGF-induced Tie2 expression. Young herniating nucleus pulposus tissue was used. We compared WTC and standard primary cell culture, with or without 10 ng/mL FGF2. PI3K/Akt and MEK/ERK signaling pathways were examined through western blotting. Using WTC and primary cell culture, Tie2 positivity rates were 7.0 ± 2.6% and 1.9 ± 0.3% (p = 0.004), respectively. Addition of FGF2 in WTC increased Tie2 positivity rates to 14.2 ± 5.4% (p = 0.01). FGF2-stimulated expression of Tie2 was reduced 3-fold with the addition of the MEK inhibitor PD98059 (p = 0.01). However, the addition of 1 μM Akt inhibitor, 124015-1MGCN, only reduced small Tie2 expression (p = 0.42). cFGF similarly increased the Tie2 expression, but did not result in significant phosphorylation in both the MEK/ERK and PI3K/Akt pathways. WTC with FGF2 addition significantly increased Tie2 maintenance of human NPPC. Moreover, FGF2 supports Tie2 expression via MEK/ERK and PI3K/Akt signals. These findings offer promising tools and insights for the development of NPPC-based therapeutics.
