要旨

Adipose tissue is an expandable and readily attainable source of proliferating, multipotent adipose-derived stem cells (ASCs), holding great therapeutic potentials. However, more work is necessary to fully understand biological properties of ASCs and explore translational approaches by using or targeting ASCs. By comprehensive image-based high content screening, we identified novel fat-depot specific cell surface markers, CD10 and CD200, which can predict how well ASCs can differentiate into mature functional adipocytes. Through another study on whole genome-wide gene expression analyses, we identified novel pathways of retinoid metabolism and oxidative stress. High level of retinoic acid negatively affects early stage of adipogenic differentiation of ASCs, which can be reversed by antagonism of retinoic acid receptors. Similarly it was found that high oxidative stress associated with ageing or visceral obesity affects ASC’s ability for differentiation, proliferation, migration and/or senescence. Treatment with anti-oxidants was found to be effective in reducing reactive oxygen species and improving these ASC properties. Collectively, these results suggest that stem cells can be the cellular target for improving quality of fat tissue and adipocytes through use of specific cell surface markers, modulating RA pathway, or reversal of oxidative stress. These molecular markers and factors may be useful for future metabolic reprogramming studies in different approaches: bioimaging, screening for improved adipocyte development, or reprogramming into induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cells.
