Complex interactions between stem cells, vascular cells and fibroblasts represent the substrate of building microenvironment-embedded 3D structures that can be grafted or added to bone substitute scaffolds in tissue engineering or clinical bone repair. Human Adipose-derived Stem Cells (hASCs), human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) and normal dermal human fibroblasts (NDHF) can be mixed together in three dimensional scaffold free constructs and their behaviour will emphasize their potential use as seeding points in bone tissue engineering. Various combinations of the aforementioned cell lines were compared to single cell line culture in terms of size, viability and cell proliferation. At 5 weeks, viability dropped for single cell line spheroids while addition of NDHF to hASC maintained the viability at the same level at 5 weeks Fibroblasts addition to the 3D construct of stem cells and endothelial cells improves viability and reduces proliferation as a marker of cell differentiation toward osteogenic line.

Adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells have become a popular cell choice for tendon repair strategies due to their relative abundance, ease of isolation, and ability to differentiate into tenocytes. In this study, we investigated the solo effect of different uniaxial tensile strains and loading frequencies on the matrix directionality and tenogenic differentiation of adipose-derived stem cells encapsulated within three-dimensional collagen scaffolds. Samples loaded at 0%, 2%, 4%, and 6% strains and 0.1 Hz and 1 Hz frequencies for 2 hours/day over a 7-day period using a custom-built uniaxial tensile strain bioreactor were characterized in terms of matrix organization, cell viability, and musculoskeletal gene expression profiles. The results displayed that the collagen fibers of the loaded samples exhibited increased matrix directionality with an increase in strain values. Gene expression analyses demonstrated that ASC-encapsulated collagen scaffolds loaded at 2% strain and 0.1 Hz frequency showed significant increases in extracellular matrix genes and tenogenic differentiation markers. Importantly, no cross-differentiation potential to osteogenic, chondrogenic, and myogenic lineages was observed at 2% strain and 0.1 Hz frequency loading condition. Thus, 2% strain and 0.1 Hz frequency were identified as the appropriate mechanical loading regime to induce tenogenic differentiation of adipose-derived stem cells cultured in a three-dimensional environment.

In our laboratory, we extensively study the possibility of using adipose-derived stem cells (ASC) for maxillofacial bone regeneration. This includes also the tissue repair of large critical-size osteotomies requiring the use of tridimensional scaffolds. Bone regeneration in scaffolds can be greatly enhanced by the use of specific growth factors such as BMP2. In the present study, we compared the activity of commercially available human BMP2 (hBMP2) with in house-produced porcine BMP2 (pBMP2). The latter was synthesised using the BMP2 coding sequence from mRNA obtained from porcine ASC cell cultures. The coding sequence of the mature protein was cloned into a pET-21 plasmid and produced in E. coli as inclusion bodies. The activity of pBMP2 and hBMP2 was tested on ASC isolated from male pigs at passage 4 and at approximately 80% confluence in 48-well plates. Cells were treated in triplicate with hBMP2 or pBMP2 at 0.5, 5, 50, 500, or 1000 ng mL–1, adipogenic medium (AM), osteogenic medium (OM), or normal DMEM medium supplemented with acetic acid (used to resuspend BMP2 as the control) for 5 or 17 days. Cells were harvested for Alizarin Red S (AR) quantification and expression of osteogenic genes. For the AR analysis, cells were fixed with formalin and treated with AR. The AR was then extracted by acetic acid and neutralized with ammonium hydroxide before spectrophotometer reading at an absorbance of 420 nm. Data were analysed using GLM of SAS (SAS Institute Inc., Cary, NC, USA) with treatment, time, concentration, and all interactions as main effects. Using an inverted robotic stage microscope, images of the entire well for each replicate were taken every 2 to 3 days. Images revealed formation of osteogenic nodules in OM and characteristic large cells filled with lipid droplets in AM. No evident nodule formation was observed in the other treated cells at any time point. The AR was higher than control in both hBMP2 and pBMP2 at 0.5, 50, and 1000 ng mL–1 but not at 5 and 500 ng mL–1. There was no overall difference between hBMP2 and pBMP2 but the former had the highest AR value at 5 days in cells treated with 0.5 ng mL–1 and pBMP2 at 17 days with 1000 ng mL–1. Interestingly, both had higher values compared to OM, particularly at 5 days. We also observed an increase of AR due to time in cells treated with acetic acid (control). Overall, the data appear to indicate an increase in calcium accumulation in cells treated with both hBMP2 and pBMP2, with an early increase in the former and a late and larger increase in the latter. This might indicate a larger but slower activity of pBMP2 compared with hBMP2. The lack of formation of osteogenic nodules by both BMP2 might indicate an insufficiency of BMP2 to induce osteogenesis in porcine ASC. This last observation, together with the lack of increased AR accumulation compared with control at the 5 and 50 ng mL–1 doses, suggests the need for a more accurate analysis of BMP2 activity by measuring expression of BMP2-related genes. Finally, the data provide preliminary support for the equivalency of activity of pBMP2 and hBMP2 for in vivo bone regeneration.

Aim. Macroporous sponge-like gelatin–hyaluronic acid (Gl–HA) scaffolds cross-linked by EDC were produced using cryogelation technology, which allows for the preparation of highly porous scaffolds without compromising their mechanical properties, and is a more cost-efficient process than freeze drying. The aim of this study is to evaluate the osteogenic potential of porcine adipose-derived stem cells (PADSCs) in GI–HA cryogel. Method. The character of the GI–HA cryogel was evaluated. The pore size and the microstructure were observed using scanning electron microscope (SEM). The swelling ratio was measured. The PADSCs were harvested and isolated from pig inguinal area. Then, the GI–HA cryogel was seeded with PADSCs. The cryogel/ASCs mixture was cultured in osteogenic medium for 0, 3, 7, 14, and 21 days. The cell proliferation was measured by MTS. The RT-PCR of specific osteogenic gene expression such as osteocalcin (OC), RUNX2 was used to assess the osteogenic ability. The SEM was used to observe the interaction between scaffold and cells. Energy dispersive spectrum (EDS) was used to analyze the mineralization around cells. Results. The pore size was variable between 200 and 369 μm. The swelling ratio was around 8.67 ± 1.669%. The cell proliferation was increasing along with the increase of induction periods. The expression of early gene of RUNX2 and late gene of OC mean that the PADSCs were differentiated well into osteoblasts within the cryogels. The SEM detailed that the PADSCs cell can proliferate well in the pore of GI–HA scaffold. The EDS also demonstrated the mineralization of PADSCs in GI–HA scaffold after induction. Conclusions. To conclude, the PADSCs can proliferate and differentiate well into osteoblasts in the three-dimensional, porous, GI–HA cryogel.
