Abstract (original English)

Background The existence of multipotent stem cells in subcutaneous adipose tissue has been reported. We previously confirmed that p75 neurotrophin receptor (p75NTR; CD271)-positive cells in subcutaneous adipose tissue possessed multipotency, although changes of the characteristics in p75NTR-positive adipose-derived stem cells (ASCs) with aging remain unclear. Objective To investigate the effect of aging on p75NTR-positive ASCs. Methods The number of p75NTR-positive ASCs in subcutaneous adipose tissue of ICR mice aged 3-24 weeks was analyzed by immunostaining and flow cytometry. Subsequently, the cells were isolated and their ability to attach to the cell culture dish, proliferation rate (doubling time) and the expression of senescence-associated beta-galactosidase (SA-beta gal), a cellular senescence marker, were assessed. Age-related changes in the differentiation potential of p75NTR-positive cells in adipogenic, osteogenic, chondrogenic and myogenic lineage were also investigated. Results The number of ASCs per unit of tissue weight in adipose tissue and the attachment rate of isolated cells decreased with aging. No difference in the cell proliferation rate and the percentage of SA-beta gal-positive cells was detected. Although the efficacy of differentiation into adipogenic and osteogenic lineages slightly decreased with aging, the differentiation potential into chondrogenic
