The present invention provides an
umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cell adipogenic differentiation medium and a culture method, belonging to the technical field of
stem cell induction differentiation. The medium comprises DMEM culture medium,
fetal bovine serum,
dexamethasone,
insulin, indomethacin, IBMX, zardaverine, and
glabridin. By adding zardaverine and
glabridin to the
umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cell adipogenic differentiation medium at a certain concentration, the synergistic effect of zardaverine,
glabridin, and other components can better induce the
umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells to differentiate into adipocytes, increase the number of lipid droplets, increase the volume of lipid droplets, enhance the
lipid storage capacity of adipocytes, shorten the adipogenic
differentiation induction cycle, and solve the problems of low adipogenic differentiation rate, long
induction time, few and small lipid droplets, and unstable adipogenic effect in the three-way differentiation identification of umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells.
