Human mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) have the capacity for self-renewal and maintain pluripotency, which is defined by their ability to differentiate into cells such as osteoblasts, neurons, and glial cells. In this study, we report a method for defining the status of human MSCs based on electrochemical detection systems. Gold nano-dot structures were fabricated using a nanoporous alumina mask, and the structural formations were confirmed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Human MSCs were allowed to attach to RGD (Arg-Gly-Asp) peptide nanopatterned surfaces, and electrochemical tools were applied to the MSCs attached on the chip surface. The cultured MSCs were shown to differentiate into neural cell types, as indicated by immunocytochemical staining for tyrosine hydroxylase and beta tubulin III. Following treatment with basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) for 14 days, most of the B10 cells exhibited bipolar or multipolar morphology with branched processes, and the proportion of B10 cells expressing neuronal cell markers considerably increased. Electrophysiological recordings from MSCs treated with bFGF for 5-14 days were examined with cyclic voltammetry, and the electrochemical signals were shown to increase during differentiation from MSCs to neuronal cells. This human MSC cell line is a useful tool for studying organogenesis, specifically neurogenesis, and in addition, the cell line provides a valuable source of cells for cell therapy. The electrochemical measurement system proposed here could be utilized in electrical cell chips for numerous applications, including cell differentiation, disease diagnosis, drug detection, and on-site monitoring.
