Infrapatellar fat pad (IPFP) can be easily obtained during knee surgery, which avoids the damage to patients for obtaining IPFP. Infrapatellar fat pad adipose-derived stem cells (IPFP-ASCs) are also called infrapatellar fat pad mesenchymal stem cells (IPFP-MSCs) because the morphology of IPFP-ASCs is similar to that of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BM-MSCs). IPFP-ASCs are attracting more and more attention due to their characteristics suitable to regenerative medicine such as strong proliferation and differentiation, anti-inflammation, antiaging, secreting cytokines, multipotential capacity, and 3D culture. IPFP-ASCs can repair articular cartilage and relieve the pain caused by osteoarthritis, so most of IPFP-related review articles focus on osteoarthritis. This article reviews the anatomy and function of IPFP, as well as the discovery, amplification, multipotential capacity, and application of IPFP-ASCs in order to explain why IPFP-ASC is a superior stem cell source in regenerative medicine.

Abstract Background: Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) -based metabolomics has been suggested to be useful for exhaustive analysis of metabolic pathways of cells or tissues. We report our study on bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BSCs) and adipose-derived stem cells (ASCs) using NMR-based metabolomics. Materials and Methods: Five-week-old Wister rats were used for this study. BSCs were harvested from the femur, ASCs from inguinal fat pads, and control fibroblasts from the abdominal dermis. The cells were cultured in DMEM with 10% fetal bovine serum and harvested after two passages of the subculture. Then, the cells were subjected to freezing in liquid nitrogen and crushed to extract the aqueous metabolites. 1H-NMR spectra was measured and analyzed by a computer software (Alice2 for metabolome™ and ADMEWORKS/ModelbuilderTM). Results: BSCs, ASCs and fibroblasts were clearly separated into three groups on a principal component analysis (PCA) plot. Conclusion: ASCs, BSCs and fibroblasts were considered to have different metabolic activities, and NMR-based metabolomics will henceforth be useful for the detection, analysis, and characterization of various kinds of stem cells.

A novel compound, 3,6-bis(1-methyl-4-vinylpyridinium)-carbazole diiodide, is used as a marker for distinguishing living neural stem/precursor cells (NSPCs) from adipose-derived stem cells (ADSCs) and bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMMSCs).

ObjectiveArticular cartilage of the knee joint is avascular, exists under a low oxygen tension microenvironment, and does not self-heal when injured. Human infrapatellar fat pad-sourced mesenchymal stem cells (IFP-MSC) are an arthroscopically accessible source of mesenchymal stem cells (MSC) for the repair of articular cartilage defects. Human IFP-MSC exists physiologically under a low oxygen tension (i.e., 1–5%) microenvironment. Human bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BM-MSC) exist physiologically within a similar range of oxygen tension. A low oxygen tension of 2% spontaneously induced chondrogenesis in micromass pellets of human BM-MSC. However, this is yet to be demonstrated in human IFP-MSC or other adipose tissue-sourced MSC. In this study, we explored the potential of low oxygen tension at 2% to drive the in vitro chondrogenesis of IFP-MSC. We hypothesized that 2% O2 will induce stable chondrogenesis in human IFP-MSC without the risk of undergoing endochondral ossification at ectopic sites of implantation.MethodsMicromass pellets of human IFP-MSC were cultured under 2% O2 or 21% O2 (normal atmosphere O2) in the presence or absence of chondrogenic medium with transforming growth factor-β3 (TGFβ3) for 3 weeks. Following in vitro chondrogenesis, the resulting pellets were implanted in immunodeficient athymic nude mice for 3 weeks.ResultsA low oxygen tension of 2% was unable to induce chondrogenesis in human IFP-MSC. In contrast, chondrogenic medium with TGFβ3 induced in vitro chondrogenesis. All pellets were devoid of any evidence of undergoing endochondral ossification after subcutaneous implantation in athymic mice.
