252. Comparison Between Healthy Donor-Derived Bone Marrow Mesenchymal Stem Cells BM-MSCs and Human Dermal Fibroblasts: Impact on Clinical Applications of hMSCs

Objective:The results of clinical applications of human Mesenchymal Stem Cells (hMSCs) depend on clinical and biological factors. The quality of stem cell culture will affect success rate. Stem cell culture contamination by fibroblasts can be happened. The identification of the differences between these two cell types plays an important role to improve the quality of the therapeutic uses of hMSCs. Our present work is the first work to compare the phenotype and functional properties of primary human Dermal fibroblasts HDF to hMSC from Bone Marrow BM to reflect the impact of the possible contamination of bone morrow derived hMSC (BM-hMSC) by fibroblasts.Methods:In this study, hMSCs were obtained from the BM of (Healthy donor, n= 5) and compared to primary HDF. The following parameters were used for this comparison: cell morphology, cell proliferation tests, cell cycle, immunophenotype, pluripotent and differentiation capacity into osteoblastic and adipogenic lineages. Genes expression profile was determined in BM-MSCs and HDF by Q-PCR.Results:Our results show that both of BM-hMSCs and HDF cells have homogenous fusiform, fibroblast-like appearance. Human derived fibroblasts showed, significantly (pu003c0.001), high proliferative ability than hMSCs, which induces a shortening of doubling time (27.3-/+3h vs 44.5-/+ 8h for HDF and BM-MSCs, respectively; pu003c0,0001).The analysis of cell cycle show that HDF cultures contained, significantly pu003c0.001, two-fold higher cell number at synthesis stage (S) than in BM-hMSC cultures. Both cell types share the same immunophenotypic feature for these surfaces markers CD45(-), HLA-DR(-), CD73(+), CD90(+), CD105(+), and CD166(+) but CD146 and CD10 were differently expressed on BM MSCs Vs. HDF. Both of cell types have a potential to differentiate into osteoblastic and adipogenic lineages showed by specific stains. This result was confirmed by the expression levels of Runx2, PAL and Osterix (osteoblasts); and PPAR-g2 (adipocytes). However, expression of these genes in osteoblasts and adipocytes derived from HDF remains, significantly pu003c0.05, two times lower than the expression in osteoblasts and adipocytes obtained in BM-MSCs differenced cells.Conclusion:Our results confirm the similarities of morphology and phenotype of both HDF and BM-MSCs. The differentiation potential of BM-MSCs can not be used to distinguish between HDF and BM-MSCs as we showed that HDF could differentiate into other cell types as osteoblasts and adipocytes. The genes expression profile in osteoblasts and adipocytes derived from BM-MSCs and HDF can be used to distinguish between these tow cell types as we found the genes expression in osteoblasts and adipocytes derived from HDF were significantly lower than in BM-hMSCs. These results may explain the unexpected results of hMSCs in therapeutic applications. In this current study, new marker was identified to discriminate HDF from BM-hMSCs in order to improve the quality of the therapeutic uses of hMSCs.
