Adipose tissue is expected to provide a source of proliferative cells for regenerative medicine and cell-transplantation therapies using gene transfer manipulation. We have recently identified ceiling culture-derived proliferative adipocytes (ccdPAs) from the mature adipocyte fraction as cells suitable as a therapeutic gene vehicle because of their stable proliferative capacity. In this study, we examined the capability of adipogenic differentiation of the ccdPAs compared with stromal vascular fraction (SVF)-derived progenitor cells (adipose-derived stem cells, ASCs) with regard to their multipotential ability to be converted to another lineage and therefore their potential to be used for regenerative medicine research. After in vitro passaging, the surface antigen profile and the basal levels of adipogenic marker genes of the ccdPAs were not obviously different from those of the ASCs. However, the ccdPAs showed increased lipid-droplet accumulation accompanied with higher adipogenic marker gene expression after stimulation of differentiation compared with the ASCs. The higher adipogenic potential of the ccdPAs than the ASCs from the SVF was maintained for 42 days in culture. Furthermore, the difference in the adipogenic response was enhanced after partial stimulation without indomethacin. These results indicate that the ccdPAs retain a high adipogenic potential even after in vitro passaging, thus suggesting the commitment of ccdPAs to stable mature adipocytes after autotransplantation, indicating that they may have potential for use in regenerative and gene-manipulated medicine.
