Transcriptomic profiling reveals key early response genes during GDF6-mediated differentiation of human adipose-derived stem cells to nucleus pulposus cells
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: Stem cell-based therapies show promise as a means of repairing the degenerate intervertebral disc, with growth factors often used alongside cells to help direct differentiation towards a nucleus pulposus (NP)-like phenotype. We previously demonstrated adipose-derived stem cell (ASCs) differentiation with GDF6 as optimal for generating NP-like cells through evaluating end-stage differentiation parameters. Here we conducted a time-resolved transcriptomic characterisation of ASCs response to GDF6 stimulation to understand the early drivers of differentiation to NP-like cells.
