The impact of cell source, culture methodology, culture location, and individual donors on gene expression profiles of bone marrow-derived and adipose-derived stromal cells.


ABSTRACT: Bone marrow (BM) stromal cells (MSCs), also known as mesenchymal stem cells, display a high degree of heterogeneity. To shed light on the causes of this heterogeneity, MSCs were collected from either human BM (n=5) or adipose tissue (AT) (n=5), and expanded using 2 different culture methods: one based on fetal calf serum, and one based on human platelet lysate. After initial expansion, MSCs were frozen, and the vials were transported to 3 different laboratories and grown for 1 passage using the same brand of culture plastic, medium, and supplements. Subsequently, the cells were harvested and assayed for their gene expression profile using the Affymetrix exon microarray platform. Based on gene expression profiles, the most discriminative feature was the anatomical harvesting site, followed by culture methodology. Remarkably, genes in the WNT pathway were expressed at higher levels in BM-derived MSCs than in AT-derived MSCs. Although differences were found between laboratories, cell culture location only slightly affects heterogeneity. Furthermore, individual donors contributed marginally to the observed differences in transcriptomes. Finally, BM-derived MSCs displayed the highest level of similarity, irrespective their culture conditions, when compared to AT-derived cells.
