In vitro culture of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) from mouse bone marrow (BM) has been hampered because of the low yield of MSCs during isolation and the contamination of hematopoietic cells during expansion. The lack of specific mouse BM-MSC markers increases the difficulty. Several techniques have been reported to improve the purity and in vitro growth of mouse BM-MSCs. However, systematic report on comparison of characteristics in primary BM-MSCs between different culture conditions is rare. Here, we studied the effects of oxygen concentrations and initial medium replacement intervals, along with cell passages, on mouse BM-MSCs isolated with differential adhesion method. BM-MSCs exhibited elevated proliferative and clonogenic abilities in 5% oxygen compared with 10% and 21% oxygen, as well as a better expression of the MSC marker Sca-1. Adipogenic and osteogenetic differentiation of BM-MSCs can be observed in both 21% and 5% oxygen. Adipogenic differentiation appeared stronger under normoxia conditions. BM-MSCs showed increased proliferative capacity and adipogenic/osteogenetic differentiation potential when initial medium replacement interval was 4 days compared with 1 day. As passage number increased, cells were more MSC-like in morphology and in expression of surface markers (positive for CD29, CD44, and Sca-1 and negative for CD11b, CD19, and CD45). These data provide new insight into optimizing the culture method and understanding the biological characteristics of mouse BM-MSCs during in vitro expansion.

Differentiation Potential

Mesenchymal stem cells (MSC) are isolated from bone marrow or other tissues, and have properties of self renewal and multilineage differentiation ability. The current study investigated the in vitro differentiation potential of porcine bone marrow derived MSCs into hepatocyte-like cells. The MSC were isolated from the bone marrow of adult miniature pigs (7 months old, T-type, PWG Micro-pig®, PWG Genetics, Seoul, Korea) and adherent cells with fibroblast-like morphology were cultured on plastic. Isolated MSCs were positive for CD29, CD44, CD73, CD90, and vimentin, and negative for CD34, CD45, major histocompatibility complex-class II (MHC-class II), and swine leukocyte antigen-DR (SLA-DR) by flow cytometry analysis. Further, trilineage differentiation of MSC into osteocytes (alkaline phosphatase, von Kossa and Alizarin red), adipocytes (Oil Red O), and chondrocytes (Alcian blue) was confirmed. Differentiation of MSC into hepatocyte-like cells was induced with sequential supplementation of growth factors, cytokines, and hormones for 21 days as described previously (Taléns-Visconti et al. 2006 World J. Gastroenterol. 12, 5834–5845). Morphological analysis, expression of liver-specific markers, and functional assays were performed to evaluate the hepatic differentiation of MSC. Under hepatogenic conditions, MSC acquired cuboidal morphology with cytoplasmic granules. These hepatocyte-like cells expressed α-fetoprotein (AFP), albumin (ALB), cytokeratin 18 (CK18), cytochrome P450 7A1 (CYP7A1), and hepatocyte nuclear factor 1 (HNF-1) markers by immunofluorescence assay. In addition, the expression of selected markers was demonstrated by Western blotting analysis. In accordance with these features, RT-PCR revealed transcripts of AFP, ALB, CK18, CYP7A1, and HNF-1α. Further, the relative expression levels of these transcripts were analysed by quantitative RT-PCR after normalizing to the expression of the endogenous control, glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH). Data were analysed statistically by one-way ANOVA using PASW statistics 18 (SPSS Inc., Chicago, IL, USA), and significance was considered at P < 0.05. The results showed that the relative expressions of selected marker genes in hepatocyte-like cells were significantly increased compared with that in untreated MSC. The generated hepatocyte-like cells showed glycogen storage as analysed by periodic acid-Schiff (PAS) staining. Moreover, the induced cells produced urea at Day 21 of culture compared with control MSC. In conclusion, our results indicate the potential of porcine MSC to differentiate in vitro into hepatocyte-like cells. Further studies on the functional properties of hepatocyte-like cells are needed to use porcine MSC as an ideal source for liver cell therapy and preclinical drug evaluation.

Abstract Recent data show that the tyrosine kinase inhibitor Imatinib mesylate (IM) also affects normal hematopoietic stem cells (HSC), T lymphocyte activation and dendritic cell function not relying on the specific inhibition of bcr-abl activity. Mesenchymal stem cells (MSC) have been identified in the bone marrow (BM) as multipotent non-hematopoietic progenitor cells that differentiate into osteoblasts, adipocytes, chondrocytes, tenocytes, skeletal myocytes, and cells of visceral mesoderm. MSC interact with HSC, influencing their homing and differentiation through cell-cell contact and the production of factors including chemokines We evaluated possible effects of IM in vitro on human bone marrow-derived MSC. Screening the activity of fourty-two receptor tyrosine kinases by a phospho-receptor tyrosine kinase (RTK)-array revealed an exclusive inhibition of platelet-derived growth factor receptor (PDGFRβ) by IM which consequently affects downstream targets of PDGFRβ as Akt and Erk1/2 signalling pathways in a concentration and time dependent manner. Furthermore, perinuclear multivesicular bodies harbouring PDGFRβ were found within 18–20 hours culture of MSC in the presence of 5 μM IM. Cell proliferation and clonogenicity (evaluated as the capability to form colony forming units - fibroblasts (CFU-F)) of MSC were significantly inhibited by IM in a concentration dependent fashion. IM inhibits significantly the differentiation process of MSC into osteoblasts as evaluated by decreased alkaline phosphatase activity and reduced calcium phosphate precipitates. In contrary, differentiation of MSC into adipocytes was strongly favoured in presence of IM. All these functional deficits described, probably contribute to an observed 50% reduction in the support of clonogenic hematopoietic stem cells, as evaluated by a long term culture-initiating cells (LTC-IC)-based assay. In summary our experiments show that IM inhibits the capacity of human MSC to proliferate and to differentiate into the osteogenic lineage, favouring adipogenesis. This effect is mainly mediated by an inhibition of PDGFRβ autophosphorylation leading to a more pronounced inhibition of PI3K/Akt compared to Erk1/2 signalling. This work confirms the role of PDGFRβ recently described for the proliferation and differentiation potential of MSC and provides a first possible explanation for the altered bone metabolism found in certain patients treated with IM.

Tissue regeneration using human adipose derived mesenchymal stem cells (hASCs) has significant potential as a novel treatment for many degenerative bone and joint diseases. Previous studies have established that age negatively affects the proliferation status and the osteogenic and chondrogenic differentiation potential of mesenchymal stem cells. The aim of this study was to assess the age-related maintenance of physiological function and differentiation potential of hASCs in vitro. hASCs were isolated from patients of four different age groups: (1) >20 years (n=7), (2) >50 years (n=7), (3) >60 years (n=7), and (4) >70 years (n=7). The hASCs were characterized according to the number of fibroblasts colony forming unit (CFU-F), proliferation rate, population doubling time (PDT), and quantified parameters of adipogenic, chondrogenic, and osteogenic differentiation. Compared to younger cells, aged hASCs had decreased proliferation rates, decreased chondrogenic and osteogenic potential, and increased senescent features. A shift in favor of adipogenic differentiation with increased age was also observed. As many bone and joint diseases increase in prevalence with age, it is important to consider the negative influence of age on hASCs viability, proliferation status, and multilineage differentiation potential when considering the potential therapeutic applications of hASCs.

Abstract Background: Bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) constitute one of the important cellular components of the hematopoietic microenvironmental niche. These cells are capable of differentiation into osteoprogenitors which comprise part of the endosteal niche. In vivo studies have shown that depletion of BMSCs resulted in reduction of hematopoietic stem cell content, and there is direct in vitro evidence that BMSCs are able to support both normal and leukemia progenitor cell proliferation and survival and contribute to leukemia cell resistance to cytotoxic therapies. Whether BMSCs from leukemia marrow differ from normal counterparts and how they contribute to and are influenced by the leukemia environmental niche are still incompletely understood. In this work we sought to compare normal and AML-derived BMSCs and to define the propensity of BMSCs from leukemia patients for osteogenic or adipogenic differentiation. Methods: BMSCs were isolated from marrow aspirates of normal donor and AML patients using standard methodologies. Donors were age-matched to the leukemia patients to the extent possible in each comparative experiment. Such cells met the definition of MSCs in that they were adherent and expressed CD73, CD90, CD44, CD117 and CD105 and had osteoblastic and adipogenic differentiation capabilities. All comparisons were done at comparable passage number between samples. Results: BMSCs from AML donors demonstrated irregular vs. spindle shaped morphology as compared with BMSCs from younger donors <50 years of age but similar morphology to those grown from older donors. AML derived BMSCs were larger and had slower growth rate as assessed by longer passage times during lower passages (41 vs. 21 days). Cell surface expression markers were similar between normal and AML. CFU-F outgrowth was less from AML as compared to normal BMSC, and no difference in osteogenic differentiation was noted by Alizarin Red S measurement. On the other hand, lipid droplet formation measured by Oil Red O during adipogenic differentiation induction was greater in the AML BMSCs as compared with age matched controls, suggesting increased adipogenic differentiation potential. To determine if we could detect a gene signature difference between AML and normal BMSCs which would predict adipogenic propensity, RNA-Seq analysis was performed on AML and normal donor specimens(n=3 in each group), all from subjects >50 years of age using CuffDiff (v2.0.2). This identified 88 genes differentially expressed between the two groups. A heat map was generated using Euclidean distance hierarchical clustering of gene expression values from individual samples. This readily grouped AML vs. normal samples. Pathway analysis using Ingenuity Pathway Analysis (IPA) predicted dysregulation of four canonical pathways in AML-BMSCs as compared to normal BMSCs. These included 1) Role of tissue factor in cancer, 2) Airway pathology in COPD, 3) Oleate biosynthesis, and 4) Adipogenesis. The last two pathways are consistent with the biological observation of enhanced adipogenesis in AML-derived BMSCs. IPA analysis proposed a model of altered adipogenic differentiation in AML-BMSCs attributable to lower expression of two key regulatory genes, SOX9 and EGR2. Reduced expression of SOX9 and EGR2 in AML BMSCs as compared to normal BMSCs was validated by qRT-PCR and western blot analysis. SOX9 is reported to contribute to the commitment of MSCs to adipogenic phenotype through negative influence on expression of key transcription factors in adipogenesis, and ERG2 downregulation is required in some systems for adipocyte lineage commitment. Conclusion: Understanding the role that adipogenic MSCs play during leukemia evolution and treatment could offer insight into pathogenesis and potential therapies for these disorders.

Abstract Hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) clonally differentiate into all myeloid, B-lymphoid, and T-lymphoid lineages. Mouse HSCs are known to form in vitro colonies comprised of morphologically identifiable myeloid cells such as neutrophils, macrophages, erythroblasts, and megakaryocytes. Whether HSCs are able to differentiate along B-and T-lymphoid lineages in such colonies remains obscure. The co-culture systems with stromal cells such as S17, OP9, OP9/Delta cells have been shown to support B- and T-cell development. These systems have been used to identify subclasses of progenitors with lymphoid potentials. However, neither B cells nor T cells have been successfully generated from HSCs in vitro. This is most likely due to the lack of culture conditions which support HSCs to differentiate into a certain stage of lymphoid progenitors. In this study, we attempted to use serum-free single-cell culture to identify cytokines which fill the developmental gap between HSCs and lymphoid progenitors. Here we show that myelo-lymphoid colonies are formed by HSCs in the presence of thrombopoietin (TPO), interleukin (IL)-11, or IL-12 together with stem cell factor (SCF). CD34-negative/low, c-Kit-positive, Sca-1-positive, lineage marker-negative (CD34-KSL) bone marrow cells were individually cultured with a combination of cytokines for 7 days. All cells in each colony were transplanted into each from a group of lethally irradiated mice, along with compromised bone marrow cells. The recipient mice were periodically analyzed after transplantation to detect transient myeloid and lymphoid reconstitution. All myeloid, B-, and T-lymphoid progenitor activities were detected in single colonies formed in the presence of SCF+TPO, SCF+IL-11, SCF+IL-12. Only myeloid progenitor activity was predominantly detected in single colonies formed in the presence of SCF+IL-3, consistent with previous observations in blast colony assays. All these combinations of cytokines support self-renewal in HSCs to varying degrees. We conclude that TPO, IL-11, and IL-12 directly act on HSCs and support them to differentiate into progenitors with lymphoid differentiation potential. Early differentiation pathways in HSCs are likely to be used in common by myeloid and lymphoid lineages and be supported in common by multiple cytokines.
