Abstract (original English)
Adipose-derived stem cells (ADSCs) have emerged as a cell source for regeneration medicine. ADSCs possess the capacity to differentiate into endothelial cells and serve an essential role in vascular development and function. LncRNA taurine upregulated gene 1 (TUG1) has recently been linked with angiogenesis in hepatoblastoma. However, the roles of TUG1 in endothelial differentiation of ADSCs remain unidentified. Human adipose-derived stem cells (hADSCs) were obtained and characterized by flow cytometry, Oil red O and Alizarin Red staining. HADSCs were maintained in the endothelial differentiation medium and the expressions of TUG1, miR-143, and FGF1 were examined by qRT-PCR. To assess endothelial differentiation, the expressions of CD31, von Willebrand factor (vWF), VE-cadherin were examined by Western blot analysis, qRT-PCR, and immunofluorescence. Tube formation in Matrigel was examined. The interactions between TUG1 and miR-143, miR-143 and FGF1 were validated by luciferase assays. During the endothelial differentiation process, TUG1 and FGF1 were upregulated, whereas miR-143 was downregulated. TUG1 overexpression downregulated miR-143, upregulated FGF1, CD31, vWF, and VE-cadherin, and enhanced capillary tube formation. Luciferase assays showed that TUG1 interacted with miR-143, and FGF1 was a direct target of miR-143. Furthermore, the enhancement of endothelial differentiat
