Article Abstract
Adipose stem cells (ASCs) have multilineage differentiation capacity and hold great potential for regenerative medicine. Compared to bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (bmMSCs), ASCs are easier to isolate from abundant sources with significantly higher yields. It is generally accepted that bmMSCs show age-related changes in their proliferation and differentiation potentials, whereas this aspect is still controversial in the case of ASCs. In this review, we evaluated the existing data on the effect of donor age on the osteogenic potential of human ASCs. Overall, a poor agreement has been achieved because of inconsistent findings in the previous studies. Finally, we attempted to delineate the possible reasons behind the lack of agreements reported in the literature. ASCs represent a heterogeneous cell population, and the osteogenic potential of ASCs can be influenced by donor-related factors such as age, but also gender, lifestyle, and the underlying health and metabolic state of donors. Furthermore, future studies should consider experimental factors in in vitro conditions, including passaging, cryopreservation, culture conditions, variations in differentiation protocols, and readout methods.

Within the bone microenvironment, the intricate interplay and regulation among matrix components form a complex network. Disentangling this network is crucial for uncovering potential therapeutic targets in bone pathology. Osteocalcin (OCN), the most abundant non-collagenous bone protein, is an essential node within this network.

Background: Osteoporotic osteoarthritis (OPOA), a distinct subtype of osteoarthritis (OA), has imposed a significant health and economic burden worldwide. However, mechanistic studies and therapeutic strategies for this disease remain in the exploratory stage.
Purpose: This study aimed to investigate the specific molecular mechanisms by which osteoporosis (OP) exacerbates OA progression through accelerated subchondral bone (SB) sclerosis and the potential of Jiawei Yanghe Decoction (JWYHD) in treating OPOA.

Background: Several studies have suggested that adult human dermal fibroblasts (HDFa) may be a potential alternative source to mesenchymal stem cells for cell therapies. This study aims to characterize HDFa, adipose-derived stem cells (ADMSCs) and dental pulp stem cells (DPSCs) to investigate their proliferation, differentiation potential, mitochondrial respiration, and metabolomic profile. We identified molecules and characteristics that would differentiate MSCs from different sources or confirm their uniformity.

This work aims to construct a functional titanium surface with spontaneous electrical stimulation for immune osteogenesis and antibacteria. A silver-calcium micro-galvanic cell was engineered on the titanium implant surface to spontaneously generate microcurrents for osteoimmunomodulation and bacteria killing, which provides a promising strategy for the design of a multifunctional electroactive titanium implant. Titanium-based implants are usually bioinert, which often leads to inflammation-induced loosening.
