ABSTRACT
Adipose-derived stromal cells (ADSCs) can be induced to differentiate into neurons, representing the most promising avenue for cell therapy. However, the molecular mechanism and genomic characteristics of the differentiation of ADSCs into neurons remain poorly understood. In this study, cells from the adult ADSCs group, induction 1h, 3h, 5h, 6h, and 8h groups were selected for single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-Seq). Samples from these seven-time points were sequenced and analyzed. The expression of neuron marker genes, including NES, MAP2, TMEM59L, PTK2B, CHN1, DNM1, NRSN2, FBLN2, SCAMP1, SLC1A1, DLG4, CDK5, and ENO2, was found to be low in the ADSCs group, but highly expressed in differentiated cell clusters. The expression of stem cell marker genes, including CCND1, IL1B, MMP1, MMP3, MYO10, and BMP2, was the highest in the ADSCs cluster. This expression decreased significantly with the extension of induction time. Gene ontology (GO) enrichment analysis of upregulated genes in the induced samples showed that the biological processes related to neuronal differentiation and development, such as neuronal differentiation, projection, and apoptosis, were significantly upregulated with a longer induction time during cell cluster differentiation. The results of the cell communication analysis demonstrated the gradual formation of complex neural network connections between ADSC-derived neurons through receptor and ligand pairs at 5h after the induction of differentiation.
