To date, complex components of available reagents have been used for directional induction of neural stem cells into dopaminergic neurons, resulting in a poor ability to repeat experiments.This study sought to investigate whether a homogenate of the substantia nigra of adult rats and/or basic fibroblast growth factor could directionally induce neural stem cells derived from the subventricular zone of embryonic rats to differentiate into dopaminergic neurons.Tyrosine hydroxylase-positive cells were observed exclusively after induction with the homogenate supatant of the substantia nigra from adult rats and basic fibroblast growth factor for 48 hours in vitro.However, in the groups treated with homogenate supatant or basic fibroblast growth factor alone, tyrosine hydroxylase expression was not observed.Moreover, the content of dopamine in the culture medium of subventricular zone neurons was significantly increased at 48 hours after induction with the homogenate supatant of the substantia nigra from adult rats and basic fibroblast growth factor.Experimental findings indicate that the homogenate supatant of the substantia nigra from adult rats and basic fibroblast growth factor could directionally induce neural stem cells derived from the subventricular zone of embryonic rats to differentiate into dopaminergic neurons in the substantia nigra with the ability to secrete dopamine.
