Adipose tissue-derived stem cells (ADSCs) are capable of multipotential differentiation and express several angiogenic, anti-apoptotic and immunomodulatory markers. These features make adipose tissue as a promising source of stem cells for regenerative medicine. However, for efficient translational use, culture-induced changes in the gene expression profile and resistance of the ADSCs to ischemic environment should be taken into consideration. We compared the expression of some clinically important markers between the unpassaged and third-passaged ADSCs by RT-PCR, qPCR and flow cytometry. Our results demonstrated that the embryonic stem cell (ESC)-specific markers were expressed in the unpassaged ADSCs but were downregulated after three passages. The expression of stemness-related genes, TGFB and FGF2, was upregulated while FGF4 and LIF were downregulated after three passages. The expression of angiogenic genes in the third-passaged ADSCs was higher than the unpassaged cells. Epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) markers were either expressed in the third-passaged ADSCs or significantly upregulated after three passages. In contrast, cell cycle inhibitors, CDKN1A and TP53, were downregulated with early subcultures. The unpassaged and third-passaged ADSCs showed nearly similar resistance to oxidative stress, hypoxia and serum deprivation. In conclusion, the primary cultures of human adipose tissue contain a subpopulation of cells expressing ESC-specific genes and proteins, but the expression of these pluripotency markers subsides rapidly in standard mesenchymal stem cell culture medium. The expression of angiogenic and EMT markers also varies with early subcultures. Altogether, early-passaged ADSCs may be better choices for transplantation therapy of injured tissues, especially after ischemic conditions.
