AI Article Synopsis
- Current methods for isolating adipose tissue-derived stem cells create a mixed population, complicating the evaluation of their differentiation abilities and comparison between studies.
- An aqueous two-phase partition technique offers a gentle and scalable way to separate cells based on surface properties without damaging them.
- The study finds that aging reduces the heterogeneity of these stem cells, linked to an increase in phosphatidylserine exposure, suggesting this method could enhance the isolation of functionally distinct cell populations.
Article Abstract
The current methods of isolation of adipose tissue-derived stem cells result in a heterogeneous population that might interfere with their differentiation potential and makes it difficult to compare the results between different groups. Partition in aqueous two-phase systems is one of the few techniques that separate cells on the basis of surface properties, gentle enough to isolate fragile cell types in isotonic conditions without altering their structure, and can be easily scaled. In this study, stem cells isolated from human adipose tissue seeded and expanded in vitro were fractionated by using centrifugal countercurrent distribution in an aqueous two-phase system. The separated subpopulations revealed the high heterogeneity of adipose tissue-derived stem cell samples. Comparative partition analyses showed that aging induces a loss of heterogeneity, which is not due to a loss of cell viability associated to age. The phosphatidylserine externalization, an apoptotic feature, is the main factor in cell partition that results in a decreased hydrophobicity of the cell surface. This procedure may be suitable for separating adipose tissue-derived stem cell populations enriched in some functional and/or structural surface characteristics. The possibility of a very effective separation of different subpopulations in opposite phases would be an interesting development of the method.

Aspirin (ASA) is one of the most used medications worldwide and has shown various effects on cellular processes, including stem cell differentiation. However, the effect of ASA on adipogenesis of adipose tissue-derived stem cells (ASCs) remains largely unknown. Considering the potential application of ASCs in regenerative medicine and cell-based therapies, this study investigates the effects of ASA on adipogenic differentiation in human ASCs.

Introduction: Before performing cell therapy clinical trials, it is important to understand how cells are influenced by different growth conditions and to find optimal xeno-free medium formulations. In this study we have investigated the properties of adipose tissue-derived stem cells (ASCs) cultured under xeno-free conditions.
Methods: Human lipoaspirate samples were digested to yield the stromal vascular fraction cells which were then seeded in i) Minimum Essential Medium-α (MEM-α) supplemented with 10 % (v/v) fetal bovine serum (FBS), ii) MEM-α supplemented with 2 % (v/v) human platelet lysate (PLT) or iii) PRIME-XV MSC expansion XSFM xeno-free, serum free medium (XV).
