Abstract (original English)

Introduction: Adipose-derived multipotent mesenchymal stromal cells (ADSCs) are widely used for cell therapy, in particular for the treatment of diseases of the nervous system. An important issue is to predict the effectiveness and safety of such cell transplants, considering disorders of adipose tissue under age-related dysfunction of sex hormones production. The study aimed to investigate the ultrastructural characteristics of 3D spheroids formed by ADSCs of ovariectomized mice of different ages compared to age-matched controls. Methods: ADSCs were obtained from female CBA/Ca mice randomly divided into four groups: CtrlY-control young (2 months) mice, CtrlO-control old (14 months) mice, OVxY-ovariectomized young mice, and OVxO-ovariectomized old mice of the same age. 3D spheroids were formed by micromass technique for 12-14 days and their ultrastructural characteristics were estimated by transmission electron microscopy. Results and Discussion: The electron microscopy analysis of spheroids from CtrlY animals revealed that ADSCs formed a culture of more or less homogeneous in size multicellular structures. The cytoplasm of these ADSCs had a granular appearance due to being rich in free ribosomes and polysomes, indicating active protein synthesis. Extended electron-dense mitochondria with a regular cristae structure and a predominant condensed matrix were observed in ADSCs from
