Adipose tissues (ADPs) are an alternative source for mesenchymal stem/stromal cells (MSCs), given that conventional bone marrow (BM) collection is painful and yields limited cell numbers. As the need for easily accessible MSCs grows, cryopreservation's role in regenerative medicine is becoming increasingly vital. However, limited research exists on the characteristics and functional properties of rabbit-derived MSCs from various anatomical sources before and after cryopreservation. We examined the effects of cryopreservation using Bambanker. We found that cryopreservation did not adversely affect the morphology, viability, and adipogenic or chondrogenic differentiation abilities of ADP MSCs or BM MSCs. However, there was a notable drop in the proliferation rate and osteogenic differentiation capability of BM MSCs post-cryopreservation. Additionally, after cryopreservation, the surface marker gene expression of was not evident in ADP MSCs. As for markers, can serve as an adipogenic marker for ADP MSCs. and can act as chondrogenic markers, but these two markers are not as effective post-cryopreservation on ADP MSCs, and osteogenic markers could not be validated. The study highlights that compared to BM MSCs, ADP MSCs retained a higher viability, proliferation rate, and differentiation potential after cryopreservation. As such, in clinical MSC use, we must consider changes in post-cryopreservation cell functions.

Article Synopsis
  • Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) show a specific tendency to move towards tumors, impacting cancer growth, treatment resistance, and immune response, prompting research into MSC-related biomarkers for better predicting bladder cancer outcomes.
  • This study used data from TCGA and GSE31684 to identify genes linked to MSCs and created a risk assessment model through advanced statistical analysis techniques.
  • The final prognostic model highlighted five key genes and classified bladder cancer patients into risk categories, revealing that high MSC-risk patients faced worse outcomes and lower responsiveness to immunotherapy and specific chemotherapy drugs compared to low MSC-risk patients.

Fatty muscle degeneration and muscle atrophy have not been successfully treated due to their irreversible pathology. This study evaluated the efficacy of rat adipose-derived mesenchymal stem/stromal cells (ADP MSCs) in treating fatty muscle degeneration (FD). A total of 36 rats were divided into three groups: the control (C) group ( = 12); FD model group, generated by sciatic nerve crushing ( = 12); and the group receiving ADP MSC treatment for FD (FD+MSCs) ( = 12).

Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are used in cell therapy; nonetheless, their application is limited by their poor survival after transplantation in a proinflammatory microenvironment. Macroautophagy/autophagy activation in MSCs constitutes a stress adaptation pathway, promoting cellular homeostasis. Our proteomics data indicate that RUBCNL/PACER (RUN and cysteine rich domain containing beclin 1 interacting protein like), a positive regulator of autophagy, is also involved in cell death.

Article Synopsis
  • - Bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) can turn into cartilage cells, and the long noncoding RNA UCA1 enhances this process by positively influencing chondrogenic differentiation.
  • - When UCA1 is reduced or knocked down, it leads to lower expression of markers important for chondrogenic differentiation, indicating its critical role.
  • - UCA1 interacts directly with the PARP1 protein, promoting its stability through a process called deubiquitination, which in turn activates the NF-κB signaling pathway involved in the differentiation of MSCs.

Myogenic Differentiation and Immunomodulatory Properties of Rat Adipose-Derived Mesenchymal Stem/Stromal Cells.

Biology (Basel)

January 2024

Laboratory of Veterinary Anatomy, Faculty of Agriculture, Tokyo University of Agriculture and Technology, 3-5-8 Saiwai-cho, Fuchu, Tokyo 183-8509, Japan.

The myogenic differentiation potential of MSCs is a key factor in their potential use as a cell source for muscle tissue repair and regeneration. Additionally, evaluating the immunomodulatory properties of MSCs is important to highlight their potential for regulating inflammation and supporting tissue regeneration. Given the limited literature on muscle differentiation potential and immunomodulatory properties, this study aims to characterize rat ADP MSCs for treating muscle disease.
