Project description:We performed a genome-wide deep sequencing analysis of the microRNAs abundant in mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) derived from murine brown adipose tissue and in in vitro differentiated mature brown adipocytes. Several microRNAs were identified as differentially regulated when comparing datasets from MSCs vs. mature fat cells. These microRNAs may have an implication in the regulation of adipogenesis as well as thermogenesis in brown adipose tissue (BAT).

Project description:Mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) are used for ameliorating liver fibrosis and aiding liver regeneration after cirrhosis; Here, we analyzed the therapeutic potential of small extracellular vesicles (sEVs) derived from interferon-γ (IFN-γ) pre-conditioned MSCs (γ-sEVs). to anlyze the proteins in sEVs, proteomics of small extracellular vesicles (sEVs) from adipose tissue derived mesenchymal stem cells (AD-MSCs) stimulated with or without IFN-γ were performed.

Project description:To characterize and compare XF-iMSC (XenoFree-induced Mesenchymal stem/stromal cells) and various types of MSCs (Adipose-, Bone marrow-, Unbilical cord-derived), we performed a transcriptome analysis of these MSCs
Project description:Dedifferentiated fat (DFAT) cells, established in vitro from mature adipocytes, exhibit properties of multipotent mesenchymal stem/stromal cells (MSCs), such as the ability to differentiate into multiple mesenchymal lineages. Although DFAT cells exhibit certain properties of proliferative progeny, at present there is only limited knowledge about their characteristics as MSCs because those cells are considered to be potential artifacts of cell culture. To elucidate the identity of DFAT cells, we compared gene expression profiles of human DFAT cells and adipose-derived stem/stromal cells (ADSCs) established using adipose tissue from the same donors. Microarray analysis showed that the global RNA expression profiles of human DFAT cells were very similar to those of ADSCs, a representative MSC, despite being committed adipocyte progenitors. Subcutaneous adipose tissues that were obtained during surgical operation for non-malignant disease were donated by 3 patients after obtaining informed consent. Three sets of DFAT cells and ADSCs, each derived from adipose tissue from the same donor were used for RNA extraction and subsequent microarray analysis.
Project description:We surveyed DNA methylation profiles of all human RefSeq promoters in relation to gene expression and differentiation in adipose tissue, bone marrow and muscle mesenchymal progenitors, as well as in bone marrow-derived hematopoietic progenitors. We unravel strongly overlapping DNA methylation profiles between adipose stem cells (ASCs), bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMMSCs) and muscle progenitor cells (MPCs), while hematopoietic progenitor cells (HPCs) are more epigenetically distant from MSCs seen as a whole. Differentiation resolves a fraction of methylation patterns common to MSCs, generating epigenetic divergence. RNA was isolated from MSCs isolated from various tissues and from differentiated cells, and hybridized onto Illumina expression arrays. 2-3 replicates per cell type. The supplementary file 'GSE19773_non-normalized.txt' contains the non-normalized data for Samples GSM493884-GSM493894.
Project description:Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs)-derived exosomes (exo) have shown comprehensive application prospects over the years. Despite similar functions, exomes from different origins present heterogeneous characteristics and components; however, there are no relevant proteomic analyses. In this study, we isolated exosomes from MSCs, derived from different tissues, by ultracentrifugation. A total of 1014 proteins were detected using a label-free method and analyzed with bioinformatics tools. The results revealed their shared function in the extracellular matrix receptor. Bone marrow-MSCs-derived exosomes showed superior regeneration ability. Likewise, adipose tissue-MSCs-derived exosomes played a significant role in immune regulation. Whereas, umbilical cord-MSCs-derived exosomes were more prominent in tissue damage repair.
Project description:Mesenchymal stem/stromal cells (MSCs) were harvested from subcutaneous adipose tissue of patients with obesity or healthy controls and expanded for 3-4 passages, and 5hmC profiles were examined through hydroxymethylated DNA immunoprecipitation sequencing (hMeDIP-seq). We hypothesized that obesity and cardiovascular risk factors induce functionally-relevant, locus-specific changes in overall exonic coverage of 5hmC in human adipose-derived MSCs.

Differentiation resolves a fraction of methylation patterns common to MSCs, generating epigenetic divergence. DNA was isolated from MSCs isolated from various tissues and from differentiated cells, immunoprecipitated using antibodies to 5-methylcytosine, and co-hybridized onto Nimblegen promoter arrays together with input DNA.
