Core Tip Intestinal mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) hold therapeutic potential for intestinal diseases, but standardized isolation protocols for rat intestinal MSCs are lacking. This study systematically compares conventional adherence culture and Percoll density gradient centrifugation for isolating rat intestinal MSCs. Density gradient centrifugation yields cells with higher purity, enhanced proliferation, and superior osteogenic/adipogenic differentiation potential. This simple, cost-effective method addresses the limitations of conventional adherence culture and provides a standardized cell source for intestinal regenerative medicine research.
