Abstract (original English)
Human vascular stromal (VS) cells obtained from mature adipose tissue were transfected with an adenovirus vector carrying the basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) gene. bFGF protein was observed in VS cell nuclei 24 h after transfection and in the cytoplasm and extracellular space 72 h after transfection. Naive VS cells were almost static in vitro and proliferated in a dose-dependent manner on stimulation with recombinant bFGF (rbFGF). However, bFGF-transfected VS cells proliferated spontaneously to the same extent as naive VS cells when stimulated with rbFGF at 100 ng/ml. The former cells started to proliferate on day 3 after transfection and the proliferation pattern was similar to that of the latter cells, although only a slight amount of bFGF protein was detected in the culture medium when the bFGF-transfected cells started to proliferate. The proliferation of bFGF-transfected VS cells was completely inhibited by bFGF neutralizing antibody, which also completely inhibited the proliferation of naive VS cells stimulated with rbFGF. Under conditions favoring differentiation to adipocytes, bFGF-transfected VS cells stopped proliferating and started to accumulate lipid in the cytoplasm. bFGF-transfected VS cells, which spontaneously and efficiently proliferate while preserving their ability to differentiate into adipocytes, may be an adequate cell source for human adipose tissu
