Three-dimensional environment and vascularization induce osteogenic maturation of human adipose-derived stem cells comparable to that of bone-derived progenitors.

ABSTRACT: While human adipose-derived stem cells (hADSCs) are known to possess osteogenic differentiation potential, the bone tissues formed are generally considered rudimentary and immature compared with those made by bone-derived precursor cells such as human bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (hBMSCs) and less commonly studied human calvarium osteoprogenitor cells (hOPs). Traditional differentiation protocols have tended to focus on osteoinduction of hADSCs through the addition of osteogenic differentiation media or use of stimulatory bioactive scaffolds which have not resulted in mature bone formation. Here, we tested the hypothesis that by reproducing the physical as well as biochemical bone microenvironment through the use of three-dimensional (3D) culture and vascularization we could enhance osteogenic maturation in hADSCs. In addition to biomolecular characterization, we performed structural analysis through extracellular collagen alignment and mineral density in our bone tissue engineered samples to evaluate osteogenic maturation. We further compared bone formed by hADSCs, hBMSCs, and hOPs against mature human pediatric calvarial bone, yet not extensively investigated. Although bone generated by all three cell types was still less mature than native pediatric bone, a fibrin-based 3D microenvironment together with vascularization boosted osteogenic maturation of hADSC making it similar to that of bone-derived osteoprogenitors. This demonstrates the important role of vascularization and 3D culture in driving osteogenic maturation of cells easily available but constitutively less committed to this lineage and suggests a crucial avenue for recreating the bone microenvironment for tissue engineering of mature craniofacial bone tissues from pediatric hADSCs, as well as hBMSCs and hOPs.

Project description:Allogeneic cell-based therapies using adipose tissue-derived stromal cells (ASCs) offer an off-the-shelf alternative to autologous therapy. An underlying assumption is that ASC can modulate the immune response of the recipient. However, in vitro models are required to explore and identify cell interactions and mechanisms of action, to ensure sufficient and sustained effects, and to document these. In this study, we shed light on the effect of ASC manufactured for clinical use on monocyte-derived dendritic cells and an inflammatory microenvironment. ASCs were isolated from healthy voluntary donors, expanded using a human platelet lysate in bioreactors, and cryopreserved as per clinical use. Monocyte-derived dendritic cells were generated by isolation of monocytes and differentiation with GM-CSF and IL-4. Dendritic cells were cocultured with different ratios of ASC and matured with LPS and IFN-γ. Dexamethasone was included as an immunosuppressive control. Dendritic cells were analyzed by flow cytometry for CD11c, CD40, CD80, CD83, CD86, PD-L1, and HLA-DR, and supernatants were analyzed for FGF2, HGF, IL-10, IL-12p70, LIF, MIF, PDGF, PlGF, and IDO. Reduced expression of maturation markers was observed on ASC-treated dendritic cells, while high levels of PD-L1 were maintained. Interestingly, the expression of CD83 was elevated. Escalating ratios of ASC did not affect the concentration of IL-10 considerably, whereas the presence of IL-12 was reduced in a dose-dependent manner. Besides offsetting the IL-12/IL-10 balance, the concentrations of IDO and MIF were elevated in cocultures. Concentrations of FGF2, HGF, LIF, and PIGF were high in ASC cocultures, whereas PDGF was depleted. In a robust coculture model, the addition of ASC to dendritic cells inhibited the dendritic maturation substantially, while inducing a less inflammatory and more tolerogenic milieu. Despite the exposure to dendritic cells and inflammatory stimuli, ASC resulted in supernatants with trophic factors relevant for regeneration. Thus, ASC can perform immunomodulation while providing a regenerative environment.
