PG - 289-94 AB - In utero stem cells transplantation is a promising approach to the prenatal treatment of diseases. In order to investigate the fate of the stem cells after in utero transplantation, we have established a chimeric mouse model with the method of in utero transplantation. Mononuclear cells (including stem cells/progenitor cells) derived from male mouse bone marrow were injected into fetal mouse peritoneal cavity during the pre-immune period. The donor cells in the circulatory blood of female recipients were identified by fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH), and the Y-chromosome specific DNA was detected by PCR as well as real-time quantitative PCR after the recipient mice were born. The results showed that a total of 4 female recipient mice were chimeric in their peripheral blood. Significantly, the donor cells in three chimeric mice persisted up to six months.
