摘 要:Neural Stem Cells (NSCs) were incubated with self-assembled hydrogel from IKVAV-containing peptide amphiphile (IKVAV-PA) for one week. The cytocompatibility of hydrogel was evaluated. NSCs were seeded in three-dimensional (3D) hydrogels (Experimental Group, EG) or surface of coverslips (Control Group, CG), double-labeled with Calcein-AM and PI. A growth curve of cells was obtained according to CCK-8. TEM study of hydrogel revealed a network of nanofibers. NSCs began to proliferate after 24 h of incubation, and formed bigger neurospheres at 48 h in EG than in CG. Cell proliferation activity was higher in EG than in CG (P<0.05). The self-assembled Hydrogel had good cytocompatibility and promoted the proliferation of NSCs.
