Objective The aim of this study was to investigate effects of low‐intensity pulsed ultrasound ( LIPUS ) on differentiation of adipose‐derived stem cells ( ASC s), in vitro . Materials and methods Murine ASC s were treated with LIPUS for either three or five days, immediately after adipogenic induction, or delayed for 2 days. Expression of adipogenic genes PPAR ‐γ1 , and APN , was examined by real‐time PCR . Immunofluorescence ( IF ) staining was performed to test for PPAR‐γ at the protein level. Results Our data revealed that specific patterns of LIPUS up‐regulated levels of both PPAR‐γ1 and APN mRNA , and PPAR‐γ protein. Conclusions In culture medium containing adipogenic reagents, LIPUS enhanced ASC adipogenesis.
