The purpose of this study was to investigate the possible effects of the fluorescent dye PKH26 and flow cytometry on adult porcine adipose-derived stem cells (ADSCs) after exposing them to adipogenic and osteogenic differentiation conditions. Adipose tissue was isolated from swine (11 months of age) and digested with 0.075% collagenase at 37�C for 90 min. The digested adipose tissue was centrifuged at 200g for 10 min to obtain a cell pellet. The pellet was re-suspended with DMEM, and the ADSCs were plated onto 75 cm2 flasks (5000-10 000 cells per cm2) and cultured in DMEM supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS) and 1% gentamicin. Passage 3 cells were labeled with fluorescent dye (PKH26 red fluorescent cell linker kit; Sigma Chemical, St. Louis, MO, USA) and sorted by flow cytometry. After labeling and sorting, the sorted and unsorted (control group) cells were replated and exposed to adipogenic (1 �M dexamethasone, 0.5 mM isobutylmethylxantine, 10 �M insulin and 200�M indomethacin) and osteogenic (0.1 �M dexamethasone, 10 mM �-glycerophosphate, and 50�M ascorbic acid) differentiation conditions when the cells were 90% confluent. Cells were evaluated based on morphology and specific staining properties. Adipogenic differentiation was confirmed by oil red O-positive staining of large lipid vacuoles, and osteogenic differentiation by Von Kossa staining 2 weeks after initiation of differentiation. The frequency of oil red O-positive colonies in both sorted and unsorted group was similar (15.0% vs. 13.2%, respectively). The number of osteogenic nodules, confirmed by the presence of calcium by Von Kossa staining, in the sorted and unsorted group was 17 and 184 per flask, respectively. In conclusion, this study demonstrates that adult porcine adipose-derived stem cells maintain their differentiation potential after labeling with fluorescent dye and sorting by flow cytometry. This should allow for more rapid evaluation of the differentiation potential of ADSCs in vitro.

Bone marrow is one current source of adult stem cells for therapeutic purposes; however, the magnitude and accessibility of subcutaneous adipose tissue in humans make it an attractive alternative. Numerous in vitro studies have been conducted to determine how these cells act in vitro, but it is imperative to determine the vast abilities of these cells in vivo. The objective of this study was to evaluate in vivo migration and bone healing ability after transplanting adipose-derived stem cells (ADSC) in a swine model. Adipose-derived stem cells were isolated from subcutaneous adipose tissue of adult Yorkshire pigs and cultured in vitro. At 80 to 90% confluence/passage 3, the cells were trypsinized and labeled in suspension with carboxyfluorescein succinimidyl ester (CFDA-SE). This project included 20 pigs weighing between 63.5 and 81.7 kg. Bilateral mandibular osteoectomies with 10-mm defects were performed on each pig. Of the 20 pigs, half received a treatment of 2.5 million CFDA-SE labeled stem cells administered directly into each defect (DI), and the remaining half received a treatment of approximately 5 million CFDA-SE labeled stem cells through an ear vein injection via catheter (EVI). The time points were 1 h and 2 and 4 wk, with 2 pigs per time with the DI and EVI treatments. Pigs were slaughtered at each time, and spleen, liver, lung, kidney, ear vein, blood, and mandible tissues were collected. Blood samples were collected from the jugular vein with EDTA and processed via flow cytometry after collection. Tissues were fixed in 10% buffered formalin for histology. Fluorescent microscopy (CFDA-SE excitation/emission is 492/517 nm) has confirmed that transplanted ADSC do indeed migrate to a site of injury or trauma. Labeled cells were also present in blood collected from the 1-h time point group. Currently, we have not seen the presence of labeled ADSC in the other tissues (spleen, liver, lung, and kidney) after the 1-h time point. We did observe that ADSC administered by DI and EVI were able to significantly heal and regenerate bone defects within 4 wk post-surgery (P < 0.05, ANOVA with F-test), in contrast to bone defects in pigs that did not receive cell injections (control). Evidence of ADSC-related healing and bone regeneration was evident by gross visualization, dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry (DXA) and micro computer tomography (microCT) analysis. The clinical implications of these results are significant for treating many diseases in which inflammation or defects exist, such as cardiac disease, neurological disease, or traumatic injuries to both soft and hard tissue. If the adult stem cells can be harvested from fat, encouraged to produce bone or cartilage, and then reinserted into defects, treatment protocols for trauma victims could be developed that would reduce the need for alternate harvesting techniques for bone. This work was support by a grant from the Illinois Regenerative Medicine Institute (IDPH # 63080017).

In clinical practice, administration of low ozone (O3) dosages is a complementary therapy for many diseases, due to the capability of O3 to elicit an antioxidant response through the Nuclear Factor Erythroid 2-Related Factor 2 (Nrf2)-dependent pathway. Nrf2 is also involved in the adipogenic differentiation of mesenchymal stem cells, and low O3 concentrations have been shown to stimulate lipid accumulation in human adipose-derived adult stem cells in vitro. Thus, O3 treatment is a promising procedure to improve the survival of explanted adipose tissue, whose reabsorption after fat grafting is a major problem in regenerative medicine. In this context, we carried out a pilot study to explore the potential of mild O3 treatment in preserving explanted murine adipose tissue in vitro. Scanning and transmission electron microscopy, Western blot, real-time polymerase chain reaction and nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy were used. Exposure to low O3 concentrations down in the degradation of the explanted adipose tissue and induced a concomitant increase in the protein abundance of Nrf2 and in the expression of its target gene Hmox1. These findings provide a promising background for further studies aimed at the clinical application of O3 as an adjuvant treatment to improve fat engraftment.

Background: Extensive loss of skin in burn patients can have devastating consequences, both physically and mentally. Adipose-Derived Stem Cells (ADSCs) and fibroblasts are known to play significant roles in the process of wound healing. Recently, bioengineered skin has been considered for wound healing purposes. Methods: Investigate the effect of Integra seeded with ADSCs, fibroblasts, or both on wound healing. Results: We found that when Integra is seeded with ADSCs and fibroblasts, both types of cells incorporate and proliferate, the phenomenon becoming more robust when the cells are co-cultured on Integra, both in vitro and in vivo. In addition, when these cells are seeded on Integra, they stimulate epithelization with no signs of inflammation and skin necrosis being observed when transplanted on animals for 7 days. Conclusion: ADSCs and fibroblasts seeded on Integra could decrease the number of α-SMA positive myofibroblasts, leading to scarless wound healing. The evidence from this study is strongly supportive that Integra seeded with ADSCs and fibroblasts is an appropriate and effective bioengineered skin for wound healing.

Abstract Introduction Critical limb ischemia (CLI) is the most advanced form of peripheral arterial disease (PAD) characterized by ischemic rest pain and non-healing ulcers. Currently, the standard therapy for CLI is the surgical reconstruction and endovascular therapy or limb amputation for patients with no treatment options. Neovasculogenesis induced by mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) therapy is a promising approach to improve CLI. Owing to their angiogenic and immunomodulatory potential, MSCs are perfect candidates for the treatment of CLI. The purpose of this study was to determine and compare the in vitro and in vivo effects of allogeneic bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BM-MSCs) and adipose tissue mesenchymal stem cells (AT-MSCs) on CLI treatment. Methods For the first step, BM-MSCs and AT-MSCs were isolated and characterized for the characteristic MSC phenotypes. Then, femoral artery ligation and total excision of the femoral artery were performed on C57BL/6 mice to create a CLI model. The cells were evaluated for their in vitro and in vivo biological characteristics for CLI cell therapy. In order to determine these characteristics, the following tests were performed: morphology, flow cytometry, differentiation to osteocyte and adipocyte, wound healing assay, and behavioral tests including Tarlov, Ischemia, Modified ischemia, Function and the grade of limb necrosis scores, donor cell survival assay, and histological analysis. Results Our cellular and functional tests indicated that during 28 days after cell transplantation, BM-MSCs had a great effect on endothelial cell migration, muscle restructure, functional improvements, and neovascularization in ischemic tissues compared with AT-MSCs and control groups. Conclusions Allogeneic BM-MSC transplantation resulted in a more effective recovery from critical limb ischemia compared to AT-MSCs transplantation. In fact, BM-MSC transplantation could be considered as a promising therapy for diseases with insufficient angiogenesis including hindlimb ischemia.

Stamina-enhancing effects of human adipose derived stem cells (hADSCs) were investigated in young Sprague-Dawley rats. Ten-day-old male rats were transplanted intravenously (IV) or intracerebroventricularly (ICV) with hADSCs (1 × 106 cells/rat), and physical activity was measured by locomotor activity and rota-rod performance at post-natal day (PND) 14, 20, 30, and 40, as well as a forced swimming test at PND 41. hADSCs injection increased the moving time in locomotor activity, the latency in rota-rod performance, and the maximum swimming time. For the improvement of physical activity, ICV transplantation was superior to IV injection. In biochemical analyses, ICV transplantation of hADSCs markedly reduced serum creatine phosphokinase, lactate dehydrogenase, alanine transaminase, and muscular lipid peroxidation, the markers for muscular and hepatic injuries, despite the reduction in muscular glycogen and serum triglycerides as energy sources. Notably, hADSCs secreted brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) and nerve growth factor in vitro, and increased the level of BDNF in the brain and muscles in vivo. The results indicate that hADSCs enhance physical activity including stamina not only by attenuating tissue injury, but also by strengthening the muscles via production of BDNF.
