Normal and GO-derived OFs (5 × 103/cm2) were cultured in a six-well plate and incubated in serum-free DMEM/F12 supplemented with 33 μM biotin, 17 μM pantothenic acid, 0.2 nM triiodothyronine (T3), 10 μg/mL transferrin, 0.2 μM carbaprostacyclin (cPGI2; Cayman Chemical, Ann Arbor, MI, USA), 0.1 mM isobutylmethylxanthine (IBMX), 1 μM dexamethasone, and 1 μM insulin (Sigma-Aldrich). The differentiation-induced medium was replaced every day for 4 days. The medium exchanged to a maturation medium without 1 μM dexamethasone and 0.1 mM IBMX (all from Sigma-Aldrich) for 6 days and was replaced every other day. Lipid droplets were stained using 0.5 μg/mL Nile red solution (Sigma-Aldrich).

To analyze the potential of PD-MSCsPRL-1 to differentiate into mesodermal lineages, PD-MSCsPRL-1 (passage = 5) were plated at a density of 5 × 103 cells/cm2 in various differentiation induction media using the StemPro adipogenesis and osteogenesis differentiation kit (Gibco) according to the manufacturer’s instructions. After approximately 21 days, PD-MSCsPRL-1 were fixed in 4% paraformaldehyde and incubated for 1 h with Oil Red O (Sigma-Aldrich) to stain lipids to visualize lipid vesicles and von Kossa with 5% silver nitrate (Sigma-Aldrich) under the light to evaluate the accumulation of calcium deposits.
To induce adipogenic differentiation, normal and GO-derived OFs (5 × 103 cells/cm2) were seeded and incubated in serum-free DMEM/F12 supplemented with 33 μM biotin, 17 μM pantothenic acid, 10 μg/mL transferrin, 0.2 nM triiodothyronine (T3), 1 μM insulin (all from Sigma-Aldrich), 0.2 μM carbaprostacyclin (cPGI2; Cayman Chemical, Ann Arbor, MI, USA), 1 μM dexamethasone, and 0.1 mM isobutylmethylxanthine (IBMX; all from Sigma-Aldrich) for the first 4 days. To induce the maturation of adipocytes, the medium was supplemented except 1 μM dexamethasone and 0.1 mM IBMX (all from Sigma-Aldrich) for 6 days and was replaced every other day. Lipid accumulation and adipocyte morphology were visualized by Oil Red O staining.

To analyze the potential of PD-MSCs PRL-1 to differentiate into mesodermal lineages, PD-MSCs PRL-1 (passage = 5) were plated at a density of 5×10 3 cells/cm 2 in various differentiation induction media using the StemPro adipogenesis and osteogenesis differentiation kit (Gibco) according to the manufacturer's instructions. After approximately 21 days, PD-MSCs PRL-1 were xed in 4% paraformaldehyde and incubated for 1 h with Oil Red O (Sigma-Aldrich) to stain lipids to visualize lipid vesicles and von Kossa with 5% silver nitrate (Sigma-Aldrich) under the light to evaluate the accumulation of calcium deposits.

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.
