| Core Tip |
According to prior research, epidural fat-derived mesenchymal stem cells (EF-MSCs) are potential candidates to treat neurodegenerative diseases. However, the clinical implication of EF-MSCs has encountered many limitations including difficulty in isolating the fat from the epidural region and limited proliferation ability of the stem cells. Therefore, precise biomolecular characteristics of the EF-MSC are still unclear. To overcome these problems, we immortalized EF-MSCs through lentiviral transduction, and these stable EF-MSCs were analyzed by phenotypical interpretation and proteomics. In the present study, immortalized EF-MSCs demonstrated notably increased lifespan and adipogenic potential. These findings suggest that stable EF-MSCs could be potential tools for developing effective regenerative medicine strategies. |
