In vitro osteogenic induction of human adipose stem cells co-treated with betaine/osteogenesis differentiation medium.

ABSTRACT: Human adipose-derived stem cells (hADSCs) are widely used in regenerative medicine and affected by many biochemical and biophysical stimuli in vivo. Betaine has been reported to be a type of osteogenic stimulating biochemical factor. This study aimed to investigate the effects of betaine; on osteogenic differentiation of cultured hADSCs in osteogenesis differentiation medium. Mesenchymal stem cells were extracted from women undergoing liposuction after obtaining written consent and cultured in vitro. The cells at passage 4 were confirmed by flow cytometry and differentiated into osteocytes and adipocytes. Experimental groups were the cells cultured in osteogenesis differentiation medium (control), cultured in α-MEM and 10% serum-containing Betaine (BET) ,and cultured in osteogenesis differ
