Monosodium glutamate (MSG) is a well-known sodium salt of glutamic acid, a non-essential amino acid commonly used as a flavour enhancer worldwide. MSG has been associated with various health issues in the past. The present study was pursued to delineate the role of MSG on mouse mesenchymal stem cell line C3H10T1/2 differentiation potential. Here, we evaluated the growth and various parameters for adipogenesis in murine mesenchymal stem cell line upon MSG administration. So far, there is insufficient data available regarding the effect of MSG on stem cell differentiation patterns. Existing literature strongly insinuate towards the damaging health effects of MSG consumption especially during routine administration. So, an intensive research is essential to probe the diverse effects of MSG administration related metabolic and molecular mechanisms in stem cells and their differentiation patterns.
