Fat samples were washed and minced in a sterile petridish with PBS to prevent dehydration. Following digested in 1mg/ml type II collagenase (Sigma, Saint Louis, USA) at 37°C under gentle agitation, the cells were passed through a 70µm pore-size sterile nylon mesh filter (Falcon, Franklin Lakes, USA). Then, the cells were harvested after centrifugation at 200 g for 8 minutes. To remove remaining tissue debris, the pellet was resuspended and filtered through a 40 µm cell strainer. Cells were counted and seeded in culture flasks. The culture medium was changed twice a week. Cells were trypsinized, centrifuged at 500 g for 5 minutes and re-seeded when confluent.
We performed flow cytometry analysis w to verify the cultured ADSCs. In brief, the cultured cells were washed and incubated in blocking buffer for 30 minutes at 4 °C. After being washed, the cells were then incubated for 30 minutes at 4 °C in dark with the fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC)-conjugated antibodies or thephycoerythrin (PE)-conjugated antibodies as follows: c-kit/FITC, CD9/FITC, CD31/FITC, CD34/FITC, CD90/FITC, CD271/FITC, MAP-2/FITC,VEGF/FITC, KDR/PE, CD29/PE, CD45/PE (BD Biosciences, NJ, USA). To fix the cells, 1% paraformaldehyde was used. Isotype-identical antibodies (IgG) were used as controls. Cell viability of each group was greater than 96.0%. Sample assessment was performed in three times.

Flow Cytometric Characterization of Adherent and Suspension Cells

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Adherent cells were washed with Dulbecco's PBS (DPBS) (Thermo Fisher, Waltham, MA, #12563011) and treated with Tryp‐LE Select (Thermo Fisher, Waltham, MA, #12563011) at 37°C for 5 minutes, followed by gentle pipetting to complete cell dissociation. The dissociated cells were then washed with DPBS several times before antibody staining for flow cytometry. For suspension hematopoietic cells, gentle pipetting was used to dislodge any loosely adhered hematopoietic cells from the adherent stromal layer, and the cells were washed multiple times with PBS before staining. Cells were stained in ice‐cold fluorescence‐activated cell sorting buffer (PBS, 1% BSA). Antibodies used; KDR‐PE (BD Pharmingen, San Jose, CA, #560872), CD34‐APC (BD, San Jose, CA, #555824), CD144‐PE (BD, San Jose, CA, #561714), CD45‐PE (BD, San Jose, CA, #561866), CD117‐APC (Thermo Fisher, Waltham, MA, clone 104D2), CD117‐PE (BD, San Jose, CA, #555714), CD235a‐FITC/PE (BD, San Jose, CA, Clone GA‐R2 (HIR2)), CD41a‐APC (BD, San Jose, CA, #559777), CD71‐FITC (BD, San Jose, CA, #555536), CD73‐PE (BD, San Jose, CA, #561014), CXCR4‐Biotin (BD, San Jose, CA, #555973), and Streptavidin‐FITC (BD, San Jose, CA, #554060). Flow cytometry was conducted on a Stratadigm S1000EXI or Beckton Dickinson (BD) dual‐laser FacsCalibur flow cytometer. Analyses were conducted using FlowJo v8.7 (FlowJo, LLC) software.

Multiparametric Flow Cytometry Analysis

Differentiated cells were treated with 1X TrypLE™ Express for 5 min at 37 °C to obtain a single a cell suspension. Cell pellets were resuspended in FACS buffer (DPBS with FBS 2%) and cells were counted with a hemocytometer. A final amount of 1 × 105 cells resuspended in 100 µl of FACS buffer with a dilution of 1:20 antibody was used for each analysis. The following cell surface antigens were analyzed for this study: KDR-PE (BD, 560494), CD34-APC (BD, 555824), CD43-FITC (Thermo Fisher Scientific, MHCD4301), CD41a-APCH7 (BD, 561422) and CD235a-BV421 (BD, 562938). Cells were washed using the BD FACS Lyse/Wash assistant (BD) and analyzed using BD LSRII flow cytometer (BD). Size and cell complexity were used to identify cell populations in a scatter graph representation. Single cells were discriminated using FSC-A and FSC-H and live cells were gated from single cell population using DAPI nuclear staining. Analysis of data was performed using FlowJo software (Tree Star Inc.). At least 10.000 events were collected for each analysis.

Differentiation of Human Pluripotent Stem Cells

Before differentiation, cell lines were cultured on recombinant human vitronectin (A14700; Thermo Fisher Scientific) in StemPro hESC SFM medium (A1000701; Thermo Fisher Scientific). To generate uniform in shape and size EBs, hPSCs colonies were manually cut and scraped by using the StemPro EZPassage Stem Cell Tool (23181–010; Thermo Fisher Scientific). EBs were cultured in media supplemented with recombinant factors as previously described (Kennedy et al., 2012 (link)). All recombinant factors are human and purchased from PeproTech. Analysis of expression of KDR, CD34, and CD43 at the indicated time points was performed by flow cytometry using KDR-PE (560494; BD), CD34-APC (555824; BD), and CD43-FITC (MHCD4301; Thermo Fisher Scientific) antibodies. Analyses were performed by gating on single cells using forward scatter height versus area and followed by gating on live cells and lack of DAPI uptake. Stained cells were analyzed using LSR II (BD), and data analysis was performed using BD FACSDiva software (BD).

The phenotype of CD105+CD34- cells (1st passage) was determined using a flow cytometer (BD FACSCanto ™ BD Biosciences). The cells were incubated with appropriate antibodies directed against the following human antigens: CD29 –FITC (eBioscience), CD105 –APC, CD73 –PE, CD90 –PE-Cy7, CD44 –FITC, CD34 –PE-Cy7, CD31 –FITC, CD146 –PE, KDR–PE, LIN–FITC, CD45 –PE, HLA-DR–PE-Cy7 (BD Pharmingen), or isotype-matched control antibodies were used. The Human Mesenchymal Stem Cell Functional Identification Kit (R&D Systems, Minneapolis, MN, USA) was used to differentiate CD105+CD34- cells into adipocytes, osteoblasts, and chondroblasts. The procedure was performed in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
