Popis: Multipotent stem cells persist within the stromal vascular fraction (SVF) of adipose tissue during adulthood. These cells, commonly referred to as adipose-derived stromal cells (ASC), have been extensively investigated over the past years as a promising therapeutic tool based on their regenerative and immunomodulatory properties. However, how ASC might mirror the age-related alteration of the fat they reside in remains unclear. Herein, we show that inguinal adipose tissue in mice turns from brown/beige- to white-like with age and resident ASC readily mirror these changes both at mRNA and microRNA transcriptional level. Mechanistically, our data suggest that these brown/age-related changes in ASC transcription rely on changes in the activity of E2F1 and NFkB transcription factors.
