abstract
cell replacement therapy has provided the basis for future clinical applications to treat central nervous system injury, a common result of car accidents. induced functional motoneurons are an option for replacing the lost motoneurons. adipose derived stem cells (adscs) are an appropriate source of cells for autologous cell therapy with the ability of neural differentiation. in this study, adscs were induced to neurospheres using b27 and bfgf as pre-inducer, and then neurospheres were induced to motoneuron-like cells (mnlcs) by sonic hedgehog (shh) and retinoic acid (ra) as inducers. adscs markers such as cd90, cd44, cd49d, cd106, cd31 and cd45 were measured by immunocystochemistry analysis and their multipotency were evaluated by incubation of the adscs with adipogenic, chondrogenic and osteogenic induction media. then neurospheres derived adscs were evaluated by immunocystochemistry and rt-pcr assay. the expression of islet-1, oligo-2 and hlxb9 in induced mnlcs from neurospheres evaluated by rt-pcr and immunocytochemistry assay. to identify the functional mnlcs, a co-culture preparation of mnlcs and myocytes, calcium ion imaging and synaptic vesicle release was used. adscs treated with a mixture of pre-inducer (b27 and bfgf) and inducers factors (shh and ra) adopted a morphology similar to motoneuron cells. immunocytochemical staining and rt-pcr approved that the treated cells expressed the motoneuron markers islet-1 oligo-2 and hlxb9.the co-cultured with myocytes indicate the formation of neuromuscular connections between mnlcs and myocytes. after two week, mnlcs showed high hlxb9 expression, indicative of full differentiation. also, the release rate of synaptic vesicles using fm1-43 in the induced mnlcs was 10 fold. moreover a calcium imaging with fluo-4 results approved those functional excitatory synaptic connections can influence the activity of mnlcs. these results indicate adscs can be differentiated to a functional mnlcs phenotype and may be benefit for treatment of motoneuron diseases.

Background: Adult stem cells (ASC) are undifferentiated cells found throughout the body. These cells are promising tools for cell replacement therapy in neurodegenerative disease. Adipose tissue is the most abundant and accessible source of ASC. This study was conducted to evaluate effect of selegiline on differentiation of adipose-derived stem cells (ADSC) into functional neuron-like cells (NL...

full textImaging action potentials with calcium indicators.
The understanding of neuronal circuits has been, and will continue to be, greatly advanced by the simultaneous imaging of action potentials in neuronal ensembles. This protocol describes "bulk" loading of brain slices with acetoxymethyl (AM) ester calcium indicators in order to monitor action potential activity in large populations of neurons simultaneously. The imaging of calcium influx into n...

Introduction: Cholinergic-associated diseases currently constitute a significant cause of neurological and neurodegenerative disabilities. As the drugs are not efficient in improving the suffered tissues, stem cell treatment is considered an effective strategy for substituting the lost cells. Methods: In the current study, we set out to investigate the differentiation properties of human adip...

Objective(s) Bone marrow is the traditional source of human multipotent mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs), but adipose tissue appears to be an alternative and more readily available source. In this study, rat adipose-derived stem cells (ADSCs) were induced to differentiate into Schwann-like cells and compared with rat bone marrow stem cells (BMSCs) for their Schwann-like cells differentiation pote...
