Metformin Increases Proliferative Activity and Viability of Multipotent Stromal Stem Cells Isolated from Adipose Tissue Derived from Horses with Equine Metabolic Syndrome

Abstract: In this study, we investigated the influence of metformin (MF) on proliferation and viability of adipose-derived stromal cells isolated from horses (EqASCs). We determined the effect of metformin on cell metabolism in terms of mitochondrial metabolism and oxidative status. Our purpose was to evaluate the metformin effect on cells derived from healthy horses (EqASCHE) and individuals affected by equine metabolic syndrome (EqASCEMS). The cells were treated with 0.5 μM MF for 72 h. The proliferative activity was … Show more

“…Levels of miR-21 were determined using a protocol described by Androvic et al [20,21]. Sequences of primers used for the analysis were published previously [22]. Moreover, expression of Runt-related transcription factor 2 was determined as follows: the mRNA levels of Runx-2 were determined by RT-qPCR, while protein expression was detected with Western-blot technique using protocols described below.…”

“…The details of the protocols were described earlier. 35,36 The reverse transcription was performed using a Tetro cDNA Synthesis Kit (Bioline Reagents Ltd., London, United Kingdom) according to the protocol provided by the manufacturer. Additionally, cDNA was synthesized from 375 ng of total RNA using Mir-X™ miRNA First-Strand Synthesis Kit (Takara Bio Europe, Saint-Germain-en-Laye, France).…”

“…The reaction conditions were described previously. 35,37,38 The list of primers is presented in Supplementary Material. The average fold change in the gene expression was calculated using the RQ MAX algorithm, ie scaled to the sample having the lowest expression and converted into log2 scale as described previously.…”

“…In their ndings, ASCs were a new promising therapeutic target for IR and T2DM. Interestingly, there were several articles identifying the potential role of metformin in repairing damaged ASCs in a way that decreased reactive oxygen species and promoted regenerations of ASCs (7,8). Nonetheless, the pathogenesis of IR and T2DM is complex and multifaceted and need more studies to uncover.…”
