Cell-based therapies have become a promising approach to promote tissue regeneration and the treatment of musculoskeletal disorders. Bone regeneration maintains bone homeostasis, mechanical stability and physical performance. Mechanical stimulation showed to induce stem cell differentiation into the osteogenic fate. However, the effect of various osteogenic protocols on the osteogenic commitment of equine adipose-derived stem cells is not fully elucidated. Here we examined the influence of fluid-based shear stress (FSS) via mechanical rocking to assess whether mechanical stimulation promotes osteogenic differentiation of equine adipose-derived stem cells (ASCs). ASCs were induced into osteogenic fate using osteogenic differentiation medium (ODM) protocol or additional supplementation of 5 mM CaCl and 7.5 mM CaCl protocol compared to cells cultivated in basal medium (BM) up to 21 day. The ASCs proliferation pattern was evaluated using the sulforhodamine B (SRB) protein assay. Osteogenic differentiation examined via semi-quantification of alizarin red staining (ARS) and alkaline phosphatase activity (ALP) as well as, via quantification of osteocalcin (OC), alkaline phosphatase (ALP), osteopontin (OP), and collagen type-1 (COL1) gene expression using RT-qPCR. We show that mechanical FSS increased the proliferation pattern of ASCs compared to the static conditions. Mechanical FSS together with 5 mM CaCl and 7.5 mM CaCl promoted osteogenic nodule formation and increased ARS intensity compared to the standard osteogenic protocols. We observed that combined mechanical FSS with ODM protocol increase ALP activity compared to static culture conditions. We report that ALP and OC osteogenic markers expression were upregulated under mechanical FSS culture condition particularly with the ODM protocol. Taken together, it can be assumed that mechanical stress using FSS promotes the efficiency of the osteogenic differentiation protocols of ASCs through independent mechanisms.
