Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) isolated from various tissues have been well characterized for therapeutic application to clinical diseases. However, in contrast to MSCs from other animal species, the characteristics of feline MSCs have not been fully documented. In this study, we conducted extensive characterization of feline adipose tissue-derived MSCs (fAD-MSCs). Study fAD-MSCs were individually isolated from the intra-abdominal adipose tissues of six felines. The expression levels of cell surface markers and pluripotent markers were evaluated. Next, proliferation capacity was analyzed by performing cumulative population doubling level (CPDL) and doubling time (DT) calculation assays. Differentiation potentials of fAD-MSCs into mesodermal cell lineages were analyzed by examining specific staining and molecular markers. All fAD-MSCs positively expressed cell surface markers such as CD29, CD44, CD90, CD105, CD166, and MHC-I, while CD14, CD34, CD45, and CD73 were negatively expressed. The CPDL of the fAD-MSCs was maintained until passage 5 to 6 (P5 to P6), whereas DT increased after P3 to P4. Also, stem cell-specific pluripotent markers (Oct3/4, Nanog, and SSEA-4) were detected. Importantly, all fAD-MSCs demonstrated mesodermal differentiation capacity. These results suggest that fully characterized fAD-MSCs could be beneficial when considering the use of these cells in feline disease research.

Central to the core principle of cell theory, depicting cells' history, state and fate is a fundamental goal in modern biology. By leveraging clonal analysis and single-cell RNA-seq technologies, single-cell lineage tracing provides new opportunities to interrogate both cell states and lineage histories. During the past few years, many strategies to achieve lineage tracing at single-cell resolution have been developed, and three of them (integration barcodes, polylox barcodes, and CRISPR barcodes) are noteworthy as they are amenable in experimentally tractable systems. Although the above strategies have been demonstrated in animal development and stem cell research, much care and effort are still required to implement these methods. Here we review the development of single-cell lineage tracing, major characteristics of the cell barcoding strategies, applications, as well as technical considerations and limitations, providing a guide to choose or improve the single-cell barcoding lineage tracing.

7.Rap Signaling in Normal Lymphocyte Development and Leukemia Genesis.
Immune Network 2009;9(2):35-40
Although Rap GTPases of the Ras family remained enigmatic for years, extensive studies in this decade have revealed diverse functions of Rap signaling in the control of cell proliferation, differentiation, survival, adhesion, and movement. With the use of gene-engineered mice, we have uncovered essential roles of endogenous Rap signaling in normal lymphocyte development of both T- and B-lineage cells. Deregulation of Rap signaling, on the other hand, results in the development of characteristic leukemia in manners highly dependent on the contexts of cell lineages. These results highlight crucial roles of Rap signaling in the physiology and pathology of lymphocyte development.

OBJECTIVETo explore the differentiation-inducing potentiality of Pulsatilla saponin A on K562 cells.
METHODSPulsatilla saponin A of different concentrations was used to treat K562 cells; the benzidine staining and the hemoglobinometry were applied to measure the change of hemoglobin content; the flow cytometry (FCM) was used to detect the expression of CD71 and GPA on K562 cells.
RESULTSK562 cells treated with 4 µg/ml pulsatilla saponin A differentiated into the erythroid lineage. With the treatment of pulsatilla saponin A, the hemoglobin content in K562 cells increased significantly; CD71 and GPA expression on the K562 cell surface were up-regulated.
CONCLUSIONPulsatilla saponin A can induce K562 cells to differentiate into erythroid lineage.

The aim of this study was to isolate, cultivate and phenotypically characterize two types of human amnio-tic membrane (HAM)-derived cells, and to analyze their differentiation potential in vitro. Human amnion epithelial cells (hAEC) were derived from the embryonic ectoderm, while human amnion mesenchymal cells (hAMC) were derived from the embryonic mesoderm. The cells were characterized by flow cytometry and immunofluorescence, then immunofluorescence also was performed for the analysis of multipotentiality in differentiation. The results indicated that immunophenotypic characterization of both cell types demonstrated positive for HLA-A, B, C and mesenchymal stem cell markers (CD29, CD73, CD44, CD59, CD90, CD105, CD166), but did not express the hematopoietic markers (CD31, CD34, CD45, HLA-DR) and showed the weak expression of costimulatory molecules (CD40, CD40L, CD80, CD86). Phenotypes of both cell populations were maintained from passages 3 to 7. The immunofluorescence indicated that hAEC expressed cytokeratin 19, but did not express vimentin. On the contrary, hAMC expressed vimentin but did not express cytokeratin 19. The assessment of multilineage potential demonstrated that hAMC showed greater cardiomyocytes potential, while hAEC showed greater neural potential. It is concluded that hAEC and hAMC can be successfully isolated from the HAM. Both cell populations possess similar immunophenotype. However, they differ in cell yield and multipotential for differentiation into the major lineages, hAEC possess a much greater ectodermal differentiation capacity, while hAMC possess a much greater mesodermal differentiation capacity. This conclusion will be important for use of these cells in cell therapy.

Mesenchymal stem cells (MSC) are capable of immunosuppression and differentiating into multiple cell lineages. MSC, which are accessed easily and less side-effects, have been a source of seed cells in tissue-engineering and cell-therapy. However, the application of MSC are limited by their differentiation of instability and easy aging. MicroRNA-155 (miR-155) is one of microRNA, which has powerful regulatory potential in a wide variety of immune cells through degrading specific mRNA after transcription and inhibiting translation of the target genes. Following the research of miR-155 deeply, it has an indispensable role in the proliferation, differentiation and immunoregulation of MSC. This review discusses the current understandings for the role of miR-155 in MSC.
