Abstract EN
In vitro maintenance of stem cells is crucial for many clinical applications.
Stem cell preservation factor FRIL (Flt3 receptor-interacting lectin) is a plant lectin extracted from Dolichos Lablab and has been found preserve hematopoietic stem cells in vitro for a month in our previous studies.
To investigate whether FRIL can preserve neural progenitor cells (NPCs), it was supplemented into serum-free suspension culture media.
FRIL made NPC grow slowly, induced cell adhesion, and delayed neurospheres formation.
However, FRIL did not initiate NPC differentiation according to immunofluorescence and semiquantitive RT-PCR results.
In conclusion, FRIL could also preserve neural progenitor cells in vitro by inhibiting both cell proliferation and differentiation.
