Project description:In the current study, we have performed a high-throughput CpG methylation analysis of well characterized and defined populations of human adipose-derived stem cells (hASCs) before and after in vitro induction of osteogenic and myogenic differentiation that allows identifying DNA methylation- regulated differentiation genes. We have also address the extent of the epigenetic programming of hASCs- derived differentiated cells by comparing the methylation profiling of these cells with their somatic counterparts from primary tissues. Finally, we also compared the patterns of CpG methylation of hASCs (and their derivatives) with the methylation profiles of myosarcoma and osteosrcoma cell lines. All the CpG methylation studies have been performed with the Infinium 27K methylation arrays (from Illumina).
Project description:we analyzed the expression level change of transcription factors in adipose derived stem cells during osteogenic differentiation and found a candidate target gene, Sox11. We defined that Sox11 suppresses osteogenic differentiation through overexpression and knock down of Sox11. total RNA obtained from adipose derived stem cells subjected to 1,3,6,10 or 14 days in osteogenic differentiation compared to undifferentiated control adipose derived stem cells.
Project description:Adipose tissue harbours a significant number of multipotent adult stem cells of mesenchymal origin known as adipose-derived stem cells (ADSCs). Broad differentiation potential and convenient accessibility of ADSCs make them an attractive source of adult mesenchymal stem cell for regenerative medicine and cell developmental plasticity research. Genome-wide microarray expression profiling was performed to identify genes deregulated during osteogenic differentiation of ADSCs to evaluate developmental plasticity of these cells. Dynamics of epigenetic modifications were analyzed in parallel and associated with the gene expression profile. Gene expression profile was analyzed in adipose-derived stem cells (ADSCs) differentiated into osteogenic lineage from 3 donors and compared to undifferentiated cells from the same donors.

Finally, we also compared the patterns of expression of hASCs (and their derivatives) Identify all genes or probe-sets whose expression was significantly different between control hASCs and each one of the two differentiated cell types (DIF.M and DIF.O),
