SCT is not only frequently used to explore rare and diverse cell types, including stem cells, but it also unveils the intricacies of cellular diversity and dynamics. This perspective, crucial for advancing stem cell research, facilitates non-invasive analyses of molecular dynamics and cellular functions over time. Despite numerous investigations into potential stem cell therapies for genetic disorders, degenerative conditions, and severe injuries, the number of approved stem cell-based treatments remains limited. This limitation is attributed to the various heterogeneities present among stem cell sources, hindering their widespread clinical utilization.

Highly active umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells (HA-UCMSCs) and UCMSCs were isolated, cultured, identified, and infused intravenously once at a dose of 2.29 × 10&lt;sup&gt;6&lt;/sup&gt; cells/kg. In the 4th week of treatment, bone mineral density (BMD) was evaluated via cross-micro-CT, tibial structure was observed via HE staining, osteogenic differentiation of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMMSCs) was examined via alizarin red staining, and carboxy-terminal cross-linked telopeptide (CTX), nuclear factor-κβ ligand (RANKL), procollagen type 1 N-terminal propeptide (PINP) and osteoprotegerin (OPG) levels were investigated via enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (ELISAs). BMMSCs were treated with 10&lt;sup&gt;-6&lt;/sup&gt; mol/L dexamethasone and cocultured with HA-UCMSCs and UCMSCs in transwells. The osteogenic and adipogenic differentiation of BMMSCs was subsequently examined through directional induction culture.

Both UCMSCs and HA-UCMSCs exhibited a fusiform morphology; swirling growth; high expression of CD73, CD90 and CD105; and low expression of CD34 and CD45 and could differentiate into adipocytes, osteoblasts and chondrocytes, while HA-UCMSCs were smaller in size; had a higher nuclear percentage; and higher differentiation efficiency. Compared with those in the model group, the BMD increased, the bone structure improved, the trabecular area, number, and perimeter increased, the osteogenic differentiation of BMMSCs increased, RANKL expression decreased, and PINP expression increased after UCMSC and HA-UCMSC treatment for 4 weeks. Furthermore, the BMD, trabecular area, number and perimeter, calcareous nodule counts, and OPG/RANKL ratio were higher in the HA-UCMSC treatment group than in the UCMSC treatment group. The osteogenic and adipogenic differentiation of dexamethasone-treated BMMSCs was enhanced after the coculture of UCMSCs and HA-UCMSCs, and the HA-UCMSC group exhibited better effects than the UCMSC coculture group. The protein expression of WNT, β-catenin, and runx2 was upregulated, and IFN-γ and IL-17 expression was downregulated after UCMSC and HA-UCMSC treatment.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Conclusion: &lt;/strong&gt;HA-UCMSCs have a stronger therapeutic effect on osteoporosis compared with that of UCMSCs.

Bone tissue engineering has recently been considered a promising strategy for treating bone diseases and disorders. The technique needs a scaffold to provide an environment for cell attachment to maintain cell function and a rich source of stem cells combined with appropriate growth factors. MSCs can be isolated from adipose tissue (ASCs), bone marrow (BM-MSCs), or umbilical cord (UC-MSCs). In the present study, the potential of ASCs to stimulate bone formation in composite polymeric scaffolds was discussed and it showed that ASCs have osteogenic ability in vitro. The results also indicated that the ASCs have the potential for rapid growth, easier adipose tissue harvesting with fewer donor site complications and high proliferative capacity. The osteogenic differentiation capacity of ASCs varies due to the culture medium and the addition of factors that can change signaling pathways to increase bone differentiation. Furthermore, gene expression analysis has a significant impact on improving our understanding of the molecular pathways involved in ASCs and, thus, osteogenic differentiation. Adding some drugs, such as dexamethasone, to the biomaterial composite also increases the formation of osteocytes. Combining ASCs with scaffolds synthesized from natural and synthetic polymers seems to be an effective strategy for bone regeneration.
