Capability of human mesenchymal cells isolated from different sources to differentiation into tissues of mesodermal origin

Abstract: We compared the capacity of cultured human skin fibroblasts, human umbilical cord cells obtained after normal delivery on gestation week 38-40, and mesenchymal bone marrow stem cells to differentiation into adipocytes, osteoblasts, and chondrocytes. Our findings suggest that mesenchymal stem cells are multipotent cells and can differentiate into adipose, cartilaginous, and bone tissue. Umbilical cord fibroblast-like cells can differentiate into adipocytes and chondrocytes, and only few cells in this culture ca… Show more

“…Whereas some investigators describe an osteogenic potential comparable to bone marrow MSC [55,56] and even higher [32], others show that cells collected from human UC are poorly osteogenic and only some of them are capable to undergo osteogenic differentiation [57,58]. Our data corroborate the last thesis.…”

“…It is, however, conceivable that the differentiation potential of UC-derived cells strongly depends on their location within the UC tissue. Thus, Suzdal'tseva et al [57] and Girdlstone et al [58] reported that only a moderate number of cells isolated from vascular and Wharton's jelly fractions of UC was able to differentiate into osteoblasts. In contrast, cells harvested from perivascular regions showed even higher osteogenic capacity than bone marrow MSC in a comparative study [32].…”

“…Interestingly, the only major difference is their differentiation potential [6]. UC-MSCs have a very weak osteogenic [18][19][20], chondrogenic [21], and adipogenic [19,20] differentiation capacity compared with BM-MSCs. The reasons for these differences need to be further clarified, but it has been postulated that the reduced differentiation potential of UC-MSCs may depend on their position within the UC tissue they are isolated from [22].…”

“…To shed some light on the biology of MSC, consensus conferences coined some criteria to better define MSC from bone marrow (bmMSC) [27,28] or placenta (pMSC) [29,30]. But an in-depth methodical examination to define MSC from adipose (aMSC) [31] or other tissues was not presented [8,25,[32][33][34]. Although the differences between MSC from different sources constitute an interesting field for research and reflection, in this review we discuss expression of cell surface markers to discriminate MSC from other cells and address the problems and recent studies of multilineage differentiation of both MSC and dermal fibroblasts (DF).…”
