The invention provides a culture method of bronchial epithelial stem /
progenitor cells, and particularly provides a culture medium for culturing the bronchial epithelial stem /
progenitor cells, which comprises a basic culture medium and additives, wherein the basic culture medium is selected from DMEM (Dulbecco's Modified
Eagle Medium), Ham's F-12, DMEM / F-12 or a combination thereof, the additives comprise fetal calf serum, glucose,
insulin, epidermal growth factors,
hydrocortisone, Y-27632, SB431542,
Noggin, R-spondin 1,
Fibronectin and E-
Cadherin, the invention further provides a method for culturing the bronchial epithelial stem /
progenitor cells, and the bronchial epithelial stem / progenitor cells amplified by the method are relatively high in
cloning rate and relatively high in
survival rate. According to the method,
epithelial stem cell clones can be separated from a very small amount of tissues, more than 50 times of subculture amplification can be realized, the
cell stemness is maintained normal, the normal differentiation potential is maintained, enough bronchial epithelial stem / progenitor cells which can be infused clinically can be obtained through culture, the bronchial epithelial stem / progenitor cells are used for autologous infusion, the repair of small
airway injury of the
lung is clinically realized, and the clinical application prospect is wide. The
lung function is obviously improved.
