Neural Differentiation of Rat Adipose-Derived Stem Cells in Vitro

It is reported that adipose-derived stem cells (ADSCs) had multilineage differentiation potential, and could differentiate into neuron-like cells induced by special induction media, which may provide a new idea for restoration of erectile dysfunction (ED) after cavernous nerve injury. The aim of this research was to explore the neuronal differentiation potential of ADSCs in vitro. ADSCs isolated from inguinal adipose tissue of rat were characterized by flow cytometry, and results showed that ADSCs were positive for mesenchymal stem cell markers CD90 and CD44, but negative for hematopoietic stem cell markers. ADSCs maintained self-renewing capacity and could differentiate into adipocytes and neurocytes under special culture condition. In this research, two methods were used to induce ADSCs. In method 1, ADSCs were treated with the preinduction medium including epithelium growth factor, basic fibroblast growth factor, and brain derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) for 3?days, then with the neurogenic induction medium containing isobutylmethylxanthine, indomethacin, and insulin. While in method 2, BDNF was not used to treat ADSCs. After induction, neuronal differentiation of ADSCs was evaluated. Neuronal markers, glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP), and ??-tubulin III (Tuj-1) were detected by immunofluorescence and Western Blot analyses. The expressions of GFAP and Tuj-1 in method 1 were obviously higher then those in method 2. In addition, the positive rate of the neuron-like cells was higher in method 1. It suggested that ADSCs are able to differentiate into neural-like cells in vitro, and the administration of BDNF in the preinduction medium may provide a new way to modify the culture method for getting more neuron-like cells in vitro.     

A rapid and efficient method for primary culture of human adipose-derived stem cells

Adipose tissue contains some populations, adipose-derived stem cells (ADSCs) which can differentiate into adipogenic, chondrogenic, osteogenic, myogenic, and endothelial cells. Furthermore, adipose tissue can be easily obtained in large quantities through a simple liposuction. ADSCs are thought to be an alternate source of autologous adult stem cells for cell-based therapy. However, it is time-consuming and inefficient to harvest ADSCs by using a traditional collagenase-digestion method. To meet the demand of large quantities of ADSCs in the basic and applied research of regenerative medicine, we developed a rapid and efficient method for isolation and culture of primary ADSCs. The results indicated that the ADSCs obtained with our method possessed strong abilities of proliferation and colony formation in vitro, and could keep low level of cell senescence with stable population doubling during long-term culture in vitro. Furthermore, these harvested ADSCs were capable to differentiate into osteogenic and adipogenic lineages in the specific induction medium. In addition, the results of flow cytometry analysis indicated that these ADSCs could positively express multiple CD markers, such as CD44, CD105, CD29, CD90, and CD13, and hardly expressed CD31, CD34, CD45, and CD106, which was homologous to the mesenchymal stem cells. Therefore, the ADSCs isolated with our method are consistent with previously reported characteristics of the ADSCs. This new method that we established in this study is an efficient tool to isolate and culture the stem cells from adipose tissue.     

Stimulatory effect of 17β-estradiol on osteogenic differentiation potential of rat adipose tissue-derived stem cells

Adipose tissue-derived stem cells (ADSCs) are considered as a potential cell source for regenerative medicine and tissue engineering. Although ADSCs have greater proliferation capacity than bone marrow stem cells (BMSCs), lower differentiation ability of these cells limits their utility in experimental and clinical studies. The purpose of this study was to investigate whether 17β-estradiol (E(2)) has a stimulatory effect on osteogenic differentiation potential of ADSCs in vitro. ADSCs were isolated from visceral adipose tissues of rats and treated with different concentrations of E(2) in osteogenic medium (OM) for 21 days. The differences in osteogenic differentiation potential of the cultures were assessed by von Kossa staining, measurement of alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity and calcium levels. ADSCs cultured in OM supplemented with E(2) showed greater bone-like nodule formation and mineral deposition in comparing with the cells grown in OM. In addition, ALP activity and calcium levels also were significantly higher in the cultures exposed to E(2) than the cells treated only with OM (p < 0.005, n = 5). Our results suggest that E(2) may stimulate the osteogenic differentiation of ADSCs and therefore, can be used as an inducing agent to improve the efficiency of these cells in in vitro and in vivo studies.

Evaluation of CD49f as a novel surface marker to identify functional adipose‐derived mesenchymal stem cell subset

ObjectivesCD49f is expressed on a variety of stem cells and has certain effects on their cytological functions, such as proliferation and differentiation potential. However, whether CD49f is expressed on the surface of adipose tissue‐derived mesenchymal stem cells (ADSCs) and its effect on ADSCs has not been clarified.Materials and methodsThe effects of in vitro culture passage and inflammatory factor treatment on CD49f expression and the adhesion ability of ADSCs from mice and rats were investigated. CD49f⁺ cells were selected from rat ADSCs (rADSCs) by magnetic‐activated cell sorting (MACS), and the cellular functions of CD49f⁺ ADSCs and unsorted ADSCs, including their clonogenic, proliferation, adipogenic and osteogenic differentiation, migration and anti‐apoptotic capacities, were compared.ResultsCD49f expression and the adhesion ability of ADSCs decreased with increasing in vitro culture passage number. TNF‐α and IFN‐γ treatment decreased CD49f expression but increased the adhesion ability of ADSCs. After CD49f was blocked with an anti‐CD49f antibody, the adhesion ability of ADSCs was decreased. No significant difference in clonogenic activity was observed between unsorted ADSCs and CD49f⁺ ADSCs. CD49f⁺ ADSCs had greater proliferation, adipogenic and osteogenic differentiation, migration and anti‐apoptotic capacities than unsorted ADSCs.ConclusionIn the current study, the expression of CD49f on ADSCs was identified for the first time. The expression of CD49f on ADSCs was influenced by in vitro culture passage number and inflammatory factor treatment. Compared with unsorted ADSCs, CD49f ⁺ ADSCs exhibited superior cellular functions, thus may have great application value in mesenchymal stem cell (MSC)‐based therapies.     

Fate of amnion-derived stem cells transplanted to the fetal rat brain: migration, survival and differentiation

We have recently characterized a stem cell population isolated from the rodent amniotic membrane termed amnion-derived stem cells (ADSCs). In vitro ADSCs differentiate into cell types representing all three embryonic layers, including neural cells. In this study we evaluated the neuroectodermal potential of ADSCs in vivo after in utero transplantation into the developing rat brain. A clonal line of green fluorescent protein-expressing ADSCs were infused into the telencephalic ventricles of the developing embryonic day 15.5 rat brain. At E17.5 donor cells existed primarily as spheres in the ventricles with subsets fused to the ventricular walls, suggesting a mode of entry into the brain parenchyma. By E21.5 green fluorescent protein (GFP) ADSCs migrated to a number of brain regions. Examination at postnatal time points revealed that donor ADSCs expressed vimentin and nestin. Subsets of transplanted ADSCs attained neuronal morphologies, although there was no immunohistochemical evidence of neural or glial differentiation. Some donor cells migrated around blood vessels and differentiated into putative endothelial cells. Donor ADSCs transplanted in utero were present in recipients into adulthood with no evidence of immunological rejection or tumour formation. Long-term survival may suggest utility in the treatment of disorders where differentiation to a neural cell type is not required for clinical benefit.
