Abstract (original English)

Background As fat grafting is commonly used as a filler, Adipose-derived stem/stromal cells (ASC) have been reported to be key player in retention rate. Paracrine and differentiation potential of those cells confer them strong pro-angiogenic capacities. However, a full characterization of the influence of aging on ASC has not been reported yet. Here we've investigated the effect of age on paracrine function, stemness and angiogenic potential of ASC. Methods ASC were extracted from young and old adult donors. We assessed stromal vascular fraction cell populations repartition, ASC stemness potential, capability to differentiate into mesenchymal lineages as well as their secretome. Angiogenic potential was assessed using a sprouting assay, an indirect co-culture of ASC and dermal microvascular endothelial cells (EC). Total vascular sprout length was measured, and co-culture soluble factors were quantified. Pro-angiogenic factors alone or in combination as well as ASC-conditioned medium (CM) were added to EC to assess sprouting induction. Results Decrease of endothelial cells yield and percentage is observed in cells extracted from adipose tissue of older patients, whereas ASC percentage increased with age. Clonogenic potential of ASC is stable with age. ASC can differentiate into adipocytes, chondrocytes and osteoblasts, and aging does not alter this potential. Among the 25 analyt
