[PMID: 35525990 PMCID: PMC9080218 DOI: 10.1186/s13287-022-02873-5] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/04/2021] [Accepted: 03/11/2022] [Indexed: 11/12/2022] Open
Abstract
Background Adipose-derived stem cells (ASCs) are obtained from a variety of sources in vivo where they present in large quantities. These cells are suitable for use in autologous transplantation and the construction of tissue-engineered adipose tissue. Studies have shown that ASCs differentiation is in a high degree of heterogeneity, yet the molecular basis including key regulators of differentiation remains to clarify. Methods We performed single-cell RNA sequencing and bioinformatics analysis on both undifferentiated (ASC-GM group) and adipogenically differentiated human ASCs (ASC-AD group, ASCs were cultured in adipogenic inducing medium for 1 week). And then, we verified the results of serum amyloid A1 (SAA1) with western blotting, immunofluorescence staining, oil red O staining. After these experiments, we down-regulated the expression of serum amyloid A1 (SAA1) gene to verify the adipogenic differentiation ability of ASCs.
Results In single-cell RNA sequence analyzing, we obtained 4415 cells in the ASC-GM group and 4634 cells in the ASC-AD group. The integrated sample cells could be divided into 11 subgroups (0–10 cluster). The cells in cluster 0, 2, 5 were came from ASC-GM group and the cells in cluster 1, 3, 7 came from ASC-AD group. The cells of cluster 4 and 6 came from both ASC-GM and ASC-AD groups. Fatty acid binding protein 4, fatty acid binding protein 5, complement factor D, fatty acid desaturase 1, and insulin like growth factor binding protein 5 were high expressed in category 1 and 7. Regulation of inflammatory response is the rank 1 biological processes. And cellular responses to external stimuli, negative regulation of defense response and acute inflammatory response are included in top 20 biological processes. Based on the MCODE results, we found that SAA1, C-C Motif Chemokine Ligand 5 (CCL5), and Annexin A1 (ANXA1) significantly highly expressed during adipogenic differentiation. Western blot and immunofluorescent staining results showed that SAA1 increased during adipogenesis. And the area of ORO positive staining in siSAA1 cells was significantly lower than in the siControl (negative control) cells. Conclusions Our results also indicated that our adipogenic induction was successful, and there was great heterogeneity in the adipogenic differentiation of ASCs. SAA1 with the regulation of inflammatory response were involved in adipogenesis of ASCs based on single-cell RNA sequencing analysis. The data obtained will help to elucidate the intrinsic mechanism of heterogeneity in the differentiation process of stem cells, thus, guiding the regulation of self-renewal and differentiation of adult stem cells.

Adipose-Derived Stem Cells and Ceiling Culture-Derived Preadipocytes Cultured from Subcutaneous Fat Tissue Differ in Their Epigenetic Characteristics and Osteogenic Potential. Plast Reconstr Surg 2020; 144:644-655. [PMID: 31461020 DOI: 10.1097/prs.0000000000005913] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Indexed: 12/17/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Adipose-derived stem cells and ceiling culture-derived preadipocytes can be harvested from subcutaneous adipose tissue. Little is known about the epigenetic differences, which may contribute to differences in osteogenic potential, between these cell types. The purpose of this study was to address the osteogenic potential and underlying epigenetic status of adipose-derived stem cells and ceiling culture-derived preadipocytes. METHODS Adipose-derived stem cells and ceiling culture-derived preadipocytes were cultured from abdominal subcutaneous fat tissues of four metabolically healthy, lean female patients. After 7 weeks of culture, cellular responses to osteogenic differentiation media were examined. To evaluate the osteogenic potentials of undifferentiated adipose-derived stem cells and ceiling culture-derived preadipocytes, two types of epigenetic assessment were performed using next-generation sequencing: DNA methylation assays with the Human Methylation 450K BeadChip, and chromatin immunoprecipitation assays for trimethylation of histone H3 at lysine 4. RESULTS Human ceiling culture-derived preadipocytes showed greater osteogenic differentiation ability than did adipose-derived stem cells. In an epigenetic survey of the promoters of four osteogenic regulator genes (RUNX2, SP7, ATF4, and BGLAP), the authors found a general trend toward decreased CpG methylation and increased trimethylation of histone H3 at lysine 4 levels in ceiling culture-derived preadipocytes as compared to adipose-derived stem cells, indicating that these genes were more likely to be highly expressed in ceiling culture-derived preadipocytes. CONCLUSIONS The surveyed epigenetic differences between adipose-derived stem cells and ceiling culture-derived preadipocytes were consistent with the observed differences in osteogenic potential. These results enhance the authors' understanding of these cells and will facilitate their further application in regenerative medicine.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Lipomas are common benign soft tissue tumors that are well-circumscribed and encapsulated. However, adipose masses that are not demarcated from the surrounding fat are often encountered. Two distinct types of lipomas were analyzed from surgical perspective. METHODS Thirty patients were enrolled after lipoma excision and diagnosed with either encapsulated (n = 20) or non-encapsulated lipoma (n = 10). Comparison of clinical variables, histologic analyses and characterization of the lipoma adipose-derived stem cells (ASCs) between the two lipomas were performed. RESULTS Non-encapsulated lipomas were associated with older age at operation, larger tumor and increased seroma formation. The density of lymphatic vessels and gene expressions related to lymphatic vessel, inflammation and proliferation were increased in non-encapsulated lipoma. ASCs of non-encapsulated lipoma showed enhanced proliferation when cultured with serum. CONCLUSIONS Non-encapsulated lipomas and their ASCs showed distinct lymphatic histology and cellular response. These findings elucidated the pathogenesis and pathophysiology of lipomas.

Abstract
In the year 2000, Hanahan and Weinberg (1) defined the six Hallmarks of Cancer as: self-sufficiency in growth signals, evasion of apoptosis, insensitivity to antigrowth mechanisms, tissue invasion and metastasis, limitless replicative potential, and sustained angiogenesis. Eleven years later, two new Hallmarks were added to the list (avoiding immune destruction and reprograming energy metabolism) and two new tumor characteristics (tumor-promoting inflammation and genome instability and mutation) (2). In multiple myeloma (MM), a destructive cancer of the plasma cell that grows predominantly in the bone marrow (BM), it is clear that all these hallmarks and characteristics are in play, contributing to tumor initiation, drug resistance, disease progression, and relapse. Bone marrow adipose tissue (BMAT) is a newly recognized contributor to MM oncogenesis and disease progression, potentially affecting MM cell metabolism, immune action, inflammation, and influences on angiogenesis. In this review, we discuss the confirmed and hypothetical contributions of BMAT to MM development and disease progression. BMAT has been understudied due to technical challenges and a previous lack of appreciation for the endocrine function of this tissue. In this review, we define the dynamic, responsive, metabolically active BM adipocyte. We then describe how BMAT influences MM in terms of: lipids/metabolism, hypoxia/angiogenesis, paracrine or endocrine signaling, and bone disease. We then discuss the connection between BMAT and systemic inflammation and potential treatments to inhibit the feedback loops between BM adipocytes and MM cells that support MM progression. We aim for researchers to use this review to guide and help prioritize their experiments to develop better treatments or a cure for cancers, such as MM, that associate with and may depend on BMAT.
