Abstract (original English)
Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are able to differentiate into several cell lineages including skeletal muscle. In addition to their differentiation capacities, they have the ability to transfer their content genomic information horizontally through their exosomes and fusion abilities, as we have shown in our previous clinic study on Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (DMD) patients, dystrophin expression increased after MSC treatment. Therefore, this study aimed to compare the transcriptomic properties of Wharton's jelly derived (WJ-) MSC and Adipose tissue (AT-) derived MSC, which are the two most preferred sources in MSC treatments applied in DMD. Both MSC cell lines obtained from ATCC (PCS-500-010; PCS-500-011) were characterized by flow cytometry then WJ-MSC and AT-MSC cell lines were sequenced via RNA-SEQ. R language was used to obtain the differentially expressed genes (DEGs) and differentially expressed miRNAs, respectively. Additionally, in order to support the results of our study, a gene expression profile data set of DMD patients (GSE1004) were acquired from Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database. Here, we demonstrated that activated WNT signaling and downregulated TGF-β pathways under the control of decreased mir-24 which are involved in myogenic differentiation are differentially expressed in WJ-MSC. We have shown that the expression of mir-199a-5p, which is known to incre
