Abstract (original English)
To characterize the ultrastructure of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) that were harvested from the adipose tissue (AT-MSCs) and bone marrow (BM-MSCs) of horses and transfected with green fluorescent protein. MSCs from adipose tissue and bone marrow of 6 adult female Hispano-Bretón horses. Harvested equine MSCs were cultivated and transfected with green fluorescent protein, and the immunophenotypes of the MSCs were characterized by use of anti-CD90 and anti-CD105 monoclonal antibodies. When stable transfection of MSCs was achieved, the morphological and ultrastructural characteristics of transfected and nontransfected AT-MSCs and BM-MSCs were compared with electron microscopy. The protocols for transfection and subsequent isolation of transfected cells with use of G418 were suitable for obtaining transfected MSCs. Transfection efficiency was 5% in AT-MSCs and 4% in BM-MSCs. Characterization of transfected and nontransfected MSCs revealed that they share immunocytochemical and morphological profiles. Expression of CD90 was significantly higher for transfected versus nontransfected AT-MSCs (97% vs 92%). Expression of CD105 was significantly lower for transfected versus nontransfected BM-MSCs (85% vs 94%). Transfected BM-MSCs had differences in organelles, compared with the other cell types, specifically including most commonly the rough endoplasmic reticulum with dilated cisternae a
