    BackgroundThis study aims to compare the biological properties of infant adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells (infant ADSCs) from excised polydactyly fat tissue and umbilical cord-derived mesenchymal stem cells (UCSCs) in terms of proliferation and differentiation capabilities. The proliferation of infant ADSCs and UCSCs was analyzed by determining the fold changes of cell numbers and doubling time periods.MethodsThe state of senescence and replicative stress was compared by analyzing the expression of age-related genes, senescence-associated β-galactosidase (SA-β-gal) staining, and phosphorylated histone variant H2AX (γH2AX) immunofluorescence staining. The expression levels of superoxide dismutase ( SODs ) and genes related to multilineage differentiation were analyzed using reverse transcription-quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR). Differentiation levels were determined using histochemical staining, immunohistochemical staining, and immunofluorescence staining.ResultsInfant ADSCs exhibited higher proliferation rates and expression levels of SOD1 , SOD2 , and SOD3 at passages 3-5 compared with UCSCs. Senescence related genes ( p16 , p21 , and p53 ), SA-β-gal staining, and replicative stress analysis were reduced in infant ADSCs. The expression levels of chondrogenic genes ( COL2 and COL10 ), osteogenic genes ( RUNX2 and ALP ), adipogenic genes ( LPL ), and hepatogenic genes ( ALB and TAT ) in infant ADSC-differentiated cells were significantly higher than those in UCSCs. Histochemical and immunofluorescence staining confirmed these results. Only the expression levels of tenogenic genes ( MMP3 , DCN , and COL3 ) in infant ADSC-differentiated cells were lower than those in UCSCs.ConclusionInfant ADSCs exhibit higher proliferation rates, reduced cellular senescence and replicative stress, better antioxidative activity, and higher differentiation potential toward chondrogenic, osteogenic, adipogenic and hepatogenic lineages than UCSCs.Copyright © 2023, the Chinese Medical Association.
