Abstract:Vascularization of tissue-engineered constructs is essential to provide sufficient nutrient supply and hemostasis after implantation into target sites. Co-cultures of adipose-derived stem cells (ASC) with outgrowth endothelial cells (OEC) in fibrin gels were shown to provide an effective possibility to induce vasculogenesis in vitro. However, the mechanisms of the interaction between these two cell types remain unclear so far. The aim of this study was to evaluate differences of direct and indirect stimulation… Show more
“…AD-MSCs produce and secrete many angiogenic factors, such as VEGF (Lauvrud et al, 2016) and HGF (Suga et al, 2009 (Verseijden et al, 2010). ADMSCs can produce growth factors and cytokines such as HGF, TNF-alpha (Kachgal and Putnam, 2011), PD-ECGF, FGF-2, MMP-9, Ang-2, pentraxin-3 (Rohringer et al, 2014), collagen IV, and fibronectin (MerfeldClauss et al, 2010). AD-MSCs have also been shown to have a high proliferative potential than BM-MSCs (Li et al, 2015).…”
Abstract-Introduction:Bone marrow derived MSCs (BM-MSCs) and adipose derived MSCs (AD-MSCs) are among the types of stem cells most commonly studied. Our study aims to compare the therapeutic efficacy of allograft AD-MSCs versus BM-MSCs in a mouse model of hindlimb ischemia. Methods: AD-MSCs were isolated from belly fat and BM-MSCs were isolated from femur bone marrow. They were used to treat mice with acute hindlimb ischemia. Treatment efficacy was compared among 4 groups: injected with BM-MSCs, injected with ADMSCs, non-treated and injected with phosphate buffered saline. Mice in the groups were evaluated for the following: necrosis grade of leg, leg edema, blood flow, muscle cell restructure and new blood vessel formation. Results: Results showed that AD-MSC transplantation significantly recovered acute limb ischemia, with 76.5% of mice fully recovered, while the ratio was only 48.5% in BM-MSC transplanted group, and 0% in the non-treated and PBS groups. Evaluation of leg edema, blood flow, muscle cell restructure and new blood vessel formation also supported the observation that AD-MSC transplantation was superior over BM-MSC transplantation. Conclusion: Therefore, AD-MSCs may serve as the more suitable MSC for hindlimb ischemia treatment and angiogenesis therapy.

“…Interestingly, ADSCs appear to be key regulators of new blood vessel formation and have been demonstrated to differentiate easily to endothelial cells and to form quickly and simply vessel-like structures in Matrigel® substrates with assumed endothelial function [40]. Moreover, in different studies, regarding for instance cardiac infarct treatment, epithelial regeneration or neural tissue healing, vessel formation has been observed after injection of ADSCs alone or in the combination with other cell types [61,62]. …”
Section: Mesodermal Potential Of Adipose Tissue-derived Stem Cellsmentioning
In regenerative medicine, adult stem cells are the most promising cell types for cell-based therapies. As a new source for multipotent stem cells, human adipose tissue has been introduced. These so called adipose tissue-derived stem cells (ADSCs) are considered to be ideal for application in regenerative therapies. Their main advantage over mesenchymal stem cells derived from other sources, e.g. from bone marrow, is that they can be easily and repeatable harvested using minimally invasive techniques with low morbidity. ADSCs are multipotent and can differentiate into various cell types of the tri-germ lineages, including e.g. osteocytes, adipocytes, neural cells, vascular endothelial cells, cardiomyocytes, pancreatic β-cells, and hepatocytes. Interestingly, ADSCs are characterized by immunosuppressive properties and low immunogenicity. Their secretion of trophic factors enforces the therapeutic and regenerative outcome in a wide range of applications. Taken together, these particular attributes of ADSCs make them highly relevant for clinical applications. Consequently, the therapeutic potential of ADSCs is enormous. Therefore, this review will provide a brief overview of the possible therapeutic applications of ADSCs with regard to their differentiation potential into the tri-germ lineages. Moreover, the relevant advancements made in the field, regulatory aspects as well as other challenges and obstacles will be highlighted.
“…Moreover, based on recent studies, the endothelialization of ASC-TEVS could have a beneficial side effect since ASC have been shown to differentiate along a smooth muscle lineage pathway upon EC contact [16,20]. This means that ASC-TEVS endothelialization could induce a myogenic differentiation of ASC located directly under the endothelium leading to the formation of a media-like layer.…”

“…Many studies have confirmed the adipose-derived stromal cells (ASC) potential for multilineage differentiation as well as their low immunogenicity [15][16][17][18][19]. More recently, ASC have also been investigated in the context of vascular tissue engineering [16,[20][21][22]. Indeed, given ASC's differentiation capabilities, they were evaluated both as an EC source to form an endothelium-like monolayer in grafts lumen; or as a SMC source to seed vascular scaffolds.…”
