The transcriptomic profile associated with osteo- and adipogenic differentiation in growth-arrested multipotent mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) from human adipose tissue was analyzed in vitro at 20% (standard laboratory) and 5% (tissue-related) O2 levels. Compared with day 7, at 5% O2 on day 14 spontaneous upregulation of osteo- (RUNX2, SP7, BGLAP, and SPP1) and adipogenic differentiation (CEBPA, PPARG, and ADIPOQ) genes in MSCs was observed (p < 0.05). Thus, upon expansion under tissue-related O2, MSCs demonstrated a bipotent transcriptomic profile, which may contribute to the improvement of their hematopoiesis-supportive function.
