Abstract (original English)
Bone marrow-derived multipotent stromal cells (MSCs), also known as mesenchymal stem cells, have great promise due to their capacity for tri-lineage differentiation and immunosuppressive properties, which allows for their allogeneic use and ultimately may allow for treatment of many diseases. MSCs will require extensive expansion and passaging to obtain cells in sufficient numbers necessary for cell therapies. MSCs from many donors could potentially be used. Because of this, there is a need to understand the role of passaging and donor differences on differentiation capacity using quantitative approaches. Here, we evaluated MSCs from two donors (noted as PCBM1632 and PCBM1641 by the manufacturer) at tissue culture passages 3, 5, and 7. We used a colony forming unit (CFU) assay and limiting dilution to quantify clonogenicity and precursor frequency during adipogenesis, and quantitative real-time-polymerase chain reaction for adipogenic markers to evaluate changes on a gene expression level. Further, we observed changes in cell size, and we sorted small and large populations to evaluate size-related adipogenic potential. While the adipogenic precursor frequency of ∼1 in 76 cells remained similar through passages for cells from PCBM1641, we found a large decrease in the adipogenic potential of MSCs from PCBM1632, with 1 in 2035 cells being capable of differentiating into an adipoc
