Background: The use of adipose-derived stem cells for tissue engineering involves exposing them to metabolically adverse conditions. This study examines the metabolism, proliferation, and differentiation of adipose-derived stem cells under various conditions.
Methods: Adipose-derived stem cells were cultured in 16 media conditions containing 0.6, 2.4, 4.3, or 6.1 mM glucose; 0.1, 2.5, 4.1, or 6.1 mM glutamine; and then grown in either 0.1% or 20% oxygen. Conditioned media were collected and assayed for glucose, lactate, and pyruvate. Cell proliferation and cell death were measured at several time points. Osteogenic differentiation was analyzed by alizarin red staining/quantification and alkaline phosphatase activity, measured weekly over 4 weeks.
Results: Adipose-derived stem cells remained metabolically active in all nutrient and oxygen conditions tested. Glucose consumption and lactate production increased under hypoxic conditions, but pyruvate consumption was jointly dependent on oxygen and glucose concentration. The 20% oxygen environment produced greater proliferation and cell death compared with the hypoxic environment. Osteogenic differentiation of adipose-derived stem cells was observed only when glucose and/or oxygen concentrations were physiologically normal to high.
Conclusions: Adipose-derived stem cells are an excellent source of multipotent cells and are capable of advancing current tissue engineering methodologies. These data show that adipose-derived stem cells remain viable under adverse conditions of low glucose, glutamine, and oxygen concentrations. However, there are variable levels of differentiation in the various culture conditions, which could lead to challenges in de novo osteogenesis and other forms of tissue engineering. Therefore, these results should be used in developing specific strategies to ensure successful application of adipose-derived stem cells in bone engineering and similar applications.

Background: Mounting data indicates that extracellular vesicles (EVs) have the potential to improve the injury after a stroke. Pyroptosis is a recently identified kind of programmed cell death that initiates an inflammatory reaction. We aimed to ascertain the therapeutic implications and possible molecular processes of EVs obtained from adipose-derived stem cells (ADSCs) in inhibiting pyroptosis in ischemic stroke.

Purpose: Stem cell therapy is a promising approach for treating chronic diabetic wounds. However, its effectiveness is significantly limited by the high oxidative stress environment and persistent inflammation induced by diabetes. Strategies to overcome these challenges are essential to enhance the therapeutic potential of stem cell therapy.

Musculoskeletal disorders are a series of diseases involving bone, muscle, cartilage, and tendon, mainly caused by chronic strain, degenerative changes, and structural damage due to trauma. The disorders limit the function of patients due to pain and significantly reduce their quality of life. In recent years, adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells have been extensively applied in regeneration medicine research due to their particular abilities of self-renewal, differentiation, and targeted homing and are more easily accessed compared with other sources.

In obesity, C-C chemokine ligand 2 (CCL2) plays a critical role in recruiting macrophages to white adipose tissue (WAT), contributing to chronic inflammation. In this study, we sought to explore the effects of fish oil (FO) on CCL2 expression and histone (H3K27)-modifying enzymes in both human model of preadipocytes and primary adipose-derived stem cells (ASCs). Present findings in preadipocytes lineage evidenced that lipopolysaccharide (LPS) increased (∼5.
