[Biological Function of Bladder Smooth Muscle Cells Regulated by Multi-Modal Biomimetic Stress].

Previous studies have shown that growth arrest, dedifferentiation, and loss of original function occur in cells after multiple generations of culture, which are attributed to the lack of stress stimulation. To investigate the effects of multi-modal biomimetic stress (MMBS) on the biological function of human bladder smooth muscle cells (HBSMCs), a MMBS culture system was established to simulate the stress environment suffered by the bladder, and HBSMCs were loaded with different biomimetic stress for 24 h. Then, cell growth, proliferation and functional differentiation were detected. The results showed that MMBS promoted the growth and proliferation of HBSMCs, and 80 cm H 2O pressure with 4% stretch stress were the most effective in promoting the growth and proliferation of HBSMCs and the expression level of α-smooth muscle actin and smooth muscle protein 22-α. These results suggest that the MMBS culture system will be beneficial in regulating the growth and functional differentiation of HBSMCs in the construction of tissue engineered bladder.
