The Impact

In vitro biological research on a group of amorphous titania coatings of different nanoarchitectures (nanoporous, nanotubular, and nanosponge-like) produced on the surface of Ti6Al4V alloy samples have been carried out, aimed at assessing their ability to interact with adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells (ADSCs) and affect their activity. The attention has been drawn to the influence of surface coating architecture and its physicochemical properties on the ADSCs proliferation. Moreover, in vitro co-cultures: (1) fibroblasts cell line L929/ADSCs and (2) osteoblasts cell line MG-63/ADSCs on nanoporous, nanotubular and nanosponge-like TiO2 coatings have been studied. This allowed for evaluating the impact of the surface properties, especially roughness and wettability, on the creation of the beneficial microenvironment for co-cultures and/or enhancing differentiation potential of stem cells. Obtained results showed that the nanoporous surface is favorable for ADSCs, has great biointegrative properties, and supports the growth of co-cultures with MG-63 osteoblasts and L929 fibroblasts. Additionally, the number of osteoblasts seeded and cultured with ADSCs on TNT5 surface raised after 72-h culture almost twice when compared with the unmodified scaffold and by 30% when compared with MG-63 cells growing alone. The alkaline phosphatase activity of MG-63 osteoblasts co-cultured with ADSCs increased, that indirectly confirmed our assumptions that TNT-modified scaffolds create the osteogenic niche and enhance osteogenic potential of ADSCs.

Abstract Objective: Although it has been demonstrated that adipose-derived stem cells (ASCs) from osteoporosis mice (OP-ASCs) exhibit impaired osteogenic differentiation potential, the molecular mechanism has not yet been elucidated. We found that Fzd6 was decreased in OP-ASCs compared with ASCs. This study investigates the effects and underlying mechanisms of Fzd6 in the osteogenic potential of OP-ASCs. Methods: Fzd6 expression in ASCs and OP-ASCs was measured by PCR gene chip. Fzd6 overexpression and silencing lentiviruses were used to evaluate the role of Fzd6 in the osteogenic differentiation of OP-ASCs. Real-time PCR (qPCR) and western blotting (WB) was performed to detect the expression of Fzd6 and bone-related molecules, including runt-related transcription factor 2 (Runx2) and osteopontin (Opn). Alizarin red staining and Alkaline phosphatase (ALP) staining was performed following osteogenic induction. Microscopic CT (Micro-CT), hematoxylin and eosin staining (H&E) staining, and Masson staining were used to assess the role of Fzd6 in osteogenic differentiation of osteoporosis (OP) mice in vivo.Results: Expression of Fzd6 was decreased significantly in OP-ASCs. Fzd6 silencing down-regulated the osteogenic ability of OP-ASCs in vitro. Overexpression of Fzd6 rescued the impaired osteogenic capacity in OP-ASCs in vitro. We obtained similar results in vivo.Conclusions: Fzd6 plays an important role in regulating the osteogenic ability of OP-ASCs both in vivo and in vitro. Overexpression of Fzd6 associated with the Wnt signaling pathway promotes the osteogenic ability of OP-ASCs, which provides new insights for the prevention and treatment of OP.

The Impact

ABSTRACTHuman mesenchymal stem cells (hMSCs) were routinely cultured on tissue-culture polystyrene (TCPS) to investigate the in vitro aging and cell stiffening. hMSCs were also cultured on thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU), which is a biocompatible polymer with an elastic modulus of approximately 12.9MPa, to investigate the impact of substrate elastic modulus on cell stiffening and differentiation potential. Cells were passaged over several generations on each material. At each passage, cells were subjected to osteogenic and myogenic differentiation. Local cell elastic modulus was measured at every passage using atomic force microscopy (AFM) indentation. Gene and protein expression was examined using qRT-PCR and immunofluorescent staining, respectively, for osteogenic and myogenic markers. Results show that the success of myogenic differentiation is highly reliant on the elastic modulus of the undifferentiated cells. The success of osteogenic differentiations is most likely somewhat dependent on the cell elastic modulus, as differentiations were more successful in earlier passages, when cells were softer.

Introduction: The senescence of stem cells is the primary reason that causes aging of stem cell-containing tissues. Some hypotheses have suggested that high glucose concentration in diabetic patients is the main factor that causes senescence of cells in those patients. This study aimed to evaluate the effects of high glucose concentrations on the senescence of adipose-derived stem cells (ADSCs). Methods: ADSCs were isolated and expanded from human adipose tissues. They were characterized and confirmed as mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) by expression of surface markers, their shape, and in vitro differentiation potential. They were then cultured in 3 different media- that contained 17.5 mM, 35 mM, or 55 mM of D-glucose. The senescent status of ADSCs was recorded by the expression of the enzyme beta-galactosidase, cell proliferation, and doubling time. Real-time RT-PCR was used to evaluate the expression of p16, p21, p53 and mTOR. Results: The results showed that high glucose concentrations (35 mM and 55 mM) in the culture medium induced senescence of human ADSCs. The ADSCs could progress to the senescent status quicker than those cultured in the lower glucose-containing medium (17.5 mM). The senescent state was related to the up-regulation of p16 and mTOR genes. Conclusion: These results suggest that high glucose in culture medium can trigger the expression of p16 and mTOR genes which cause early senescence in ADSCs. Therefore, ADSCs should be cultured in low glucose culture medium, or normal glucose concentration, to extend their life in vitro as well as in vivo.

Tissue regeneration using human adipose derived mesenchymal stem cells (hASCs) has significant potential as a novel treatment for many degenerative bone and joint diseases. Previous studies have established that age negatively affects the proliferation status and the osteogenic and chondrogenic differentiation potential of mesenchymal stem cells. The aim of this study was to assess the age-related maintenance of physiological function and differentiation potential of hASCs in vitro. hASCs were isolated from patients of four different age groups: (1) >20 years (n=7), (2) >50 years (n=7), (3) >60 years (n=7), and (4) >70 years (n=7). The hASCs were characterized according to the number of fibroblasts colony forming unit (CFU-F), proliferation rate, population doubling time (PDT), and quantified parameters of adipogenic, chondrogenic, and osteogenic differentiation. Compared to younger cells, aged hASCs had decreased proliferation rates, decreased chondrogenic and osteogenic potential, and increased senescent features. A shift in favor of adipogenic differentiation with increased age was also observed. As many bone and joint diseases increase in prevalence with age, it is important to consider the negative influence of age on hASCs viability, proliferation status, and multilineage differentiation potential when considering the potential therapeutic applications of hASCs.

The application of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) for treating bone-related diseases shows promising outcomes in preclinical studies. However, cells that are isolated and defined as MSCs comprise a heterogeneous population of progenitors. This heterogeneity can produce variations in the performance of MSCs, especially in applications that require differentiation potential in vivo, such as the treatment of osteoporosis. Here, we aimed to identify genetic markers in tonsil-derived MSCs (T-MSCs) that can predict osteogenic potential. Using a single-cell cloning method, we isolated and established several lines of nondifferentiating (ND) or osteoblast-prone (OP) clones. Next, we performed transcriptome sequencing of three ND and three OP clones that maintained the characteristics of MSCs and determined the top six genes that were upregulated in OP clones. Upregulation of WNT16 and DCLK1 expression was confirmed by real-time quantitative PCR, but only WNT16 expression was correlated with the osteogenic differentiation of T-MSCs from 10 different donors. Collectively, our findings suggest that WNT16 is a putative genetic marker that predicts the osteogenic potential of T-MSCs. Thus, examination of WNT16 expression as a selection criterion prior to the clinical application of MSCs may enhance the therapeutic efficacy of stem cell therapy for bone-related complications, including osteoporosis.

ABSTRACTAgeing is accompanied by a general decline in the function of many cellular pathways, with metabolic alterations, epigenetic modifications, and stem cell exhaustion representing three important hallmarks of the ageing process. However, whether these pathways are causally or functionally related at a molecular level remains poorly understood. Here, we use bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) isolated from young and old mice to address how age-dependent changes in metabolism and epigenetics are linked and how they impact on the ageing transcriptome and differentiation potential. Given that MSCs maintain specific age-associated properties even under prolonged culture conditions, such as the age-dependent decrease in osteogenic differentiation, they are an excellent model to investigate in vitro the connection of ageing hallmarks on a mechanistic level. In this study, we demonstrate that upon ageing, osteogenic potential of MSCs declines as a consequence of deregulated mito-nuclear communication, mediated by decreased levels of the citrate carrier (CiC). Age-dependent down-regulation of CiC results in acetyl-CoA trapping within mitochondria, hypo-acetylation of histones and chromatin compaction. Together, these changes lead to an altered transcriptional output and are responsible for the reduced differentiation capacity into osteoblasts. Strikingly, short-term supplementation of aged cells with acetate, an exogenous source for cytosolic acetyl-CoA production, rescues not only the age-associated reduction of histone acetylation, but also the osteogenesis defect, representing a potential target for in vitro MSC rejuvenation.

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.

The Impact

Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) possess immunosuppressive properties and have been described in the tumor microenvironment of glioblastoma multiforme (GBM). This manuscript has two major topics—first, to describe isolated and cultured MSCs derived from GBM (GB-MSCs) and second, to examine their in vitro immunosuppressive capacity. Our results display cells with morphology and phenotype, clonogenic ability, and osteogenic potential, typical for MSCs. Furthermore, the cultured cells show intracellular expression of the neural markers Nestin and GFAP. They express PD-L1 and secrete TGFβ, CCL-2, PGE2, IL-6, and sVEGF. Coculturing of GB-MSCs with PBMCs isolated from healthy donors results in a decreased percentage of Th17 lymphocytes and an increased percentage of Tregs. Regarding the impact of GB-MSCs on monocytes, we establish an augmented expression of CD14 and CD86 along with diminished expression of HLA-DR and CD80, which is associated with tolerogenic phenotype monocyte-derived cells. In conclusion, our results describe in detail GBM-derived and cultured cells that meet the criteria for MSCs but at the same time express Nestin and GFAP. GB-MSCs express and secrete suppressive molecules, influencing in vitro T cells and monocytes, and are probably another factor involved in the immune suppression exerted by GBM.
