BACKGROUND: At present, many problems deserve to be solved before clinical utilization of adipose tissue-derived mesenchymal stem cells (ADMSCs) such as complete differentiation from ADMSCs into cardiomyocytes and ADMSCs with or without specific function of cardiomyocytes. It is of significance to solve the problems including how to elevate the differentiation rate of ADMSCs into cardiomyocytes and how to elevate the homing and survival rate after transplantation for clinical utilization of stem cells.OBJECTIVE: To observe the differentiation of ADMSCs into cardiomyocytes after in vitro culture and induction.DESIGN: Randomized controlled observation.SETTING: Laboratory of Cardiology, General Hospital of Chinese PLA.MATERIALS: Adipose tissue was collected from abdominal operative patients at Department of General Surgery of General Hospital of Chinese PLA with the agreement of patients. Iscove's Modified Dulbecco's Medium (IMDM), type Ⅰ collagenase, 5-azacytidine (5-aza) and polyclonal antibody of specific anti-myocardial Troponin T (TnT) were purchased from Hyclon company, Gibco company, Sigma and Fujian Maixin Biotechnology Company, respectively.Monoclone antibodies of CD44, CD45, CD34, HLA2DR and factor-Ⅷ, Desmin, anti-α-striated muscle actin and anti-myosin heavy chain (MHC) were bought from Beijing Zhongshan Golden Bridge Biotechnology Limited Corporation. DAB stain, reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) kit and atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) radioimmunity kit were purchased from Beijing Zhongshan Golden Bridge Biotechnology Limited Corporation,Invitrogen and Radioimmunity Research Institute of Science and Technology Development Center of General Hospital of Chinese PLA, respectively.METHODS: The experiment was performed at the Laboratory of Cardiology, General Hospital of Chinese PLA from March 2005 to April 2006. ADMSCs were isolated and cultured by digestion and attachment culture method. The third generation of cells were determined by immunocytochemical method for surface molecule CD44, CD13, CD105, CD45,CD34, HLA-DR, factor Ⅷ and induced by addition of 5-aza into culture medium. On the 7th, 14th, 21st and 28th days, gene of GATA4 and Nkx2.5 were tested by reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR), and the concentration of atrial natriuretic polypeptide (ANP) were also examined by radioimmunoassay.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Determination of cell surface marker, gene of GATA4 and Nkx2.5, and ANP concentration.and factor Ⅷ negative for the cultured cells. After induction for 7 days with 5-aza, no cells expressed Desmin,α-Sarcomeric Actin, Myocin heavy chain (MHC) and TnT, most cells were positive stained for CD44. After induction for 14 days, small amounts of cells displayed positive for Desmin,α-Sarcomeric Actin and MHC but still negative for TnT,while partial cells expressed positive CD44. After induction for 21 days, most cells were positive for Desmin,α-Sarcomeric after induction and no significant difference was found compared with that at the 7th day [(0.022±0.01) ng/L (P＞0.05].ANP concentration was respectively (7.92±0.21) and (8.12±0.50) ng/L at the 21st day and the 28th day (P＞0.05), but there was significant difference compared with that at the 7th day (P＜0.05).
