AI Article Synopsis
- Bone marrow derived stem cells (BMSC) are the leading choice in bone regeneration, but researchers are exploring other sources like bovine BMSC and adipose tissue derived mesenchymal stem cells (ATSC).
- The study used immunofluorescence and PCR to analyze the osteogenic differentiation of BMSC and ATSC by measuring alkaline phosphatase (ALP) levels and calcium deposition over 21 days.
- Results showed that ATSC exhibited higher ALP levels and calcium deposition initially, indicating faster differentiation, while BMSC ultimately produced more calcium over time, suggesting better long-term mineralization.
Article Abstract
Bone marrow derived stem cells (BMSC) are the most utilized cell type in the field of bone regeneration. Although BMSC are both safe and efficacious, the search for alternative sources for stem cells continues. We investigated bovine BMSC and adipose tissue derived mesenchymal stem cells (ATSC) using immunofluorescence and PCR. We further compared the osteogenic differentiation potentials of both sources of stem cells. We assessed alkaline phosphatase (ALP) enzyme levels and calcium deposition in differentiating cells at days 7, 14 and 21 to compare the osteogenic differentiation capability of both cell types. We found that ATSC expressed significantly higher ALP levels compared to BMSC throughout osteogenic differentiation. Calcium deposition was greater in ATSC than BMSC at days 7 and 14. By the end of day 21, BMSC produced greater calcium deposition. We found that ATSC undergo osteogenic differentiation more rapidly than BMSC, but BMSC provide greater mineralization over longer periods.
