Management of hip osteoarthritis: harnessing the potential of mesenchymal stem cells-a systematic review. EUROPEAN JOURNAL OF ORTHOPAEDIC SURGERY & TRAUMATOLOGY : ORTHOPEDIE TRAUMATOLOGIE 2024:10.1007/s00590-024-04089-0. [PMID: 39254726 DOI: 10.1007/s00590-024-04089-0] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/28/2024] [Accepted: 08/25/2024] [Indexed: 09/11/2024]
Abstract
INTRODUCTION Hip osteoarthritis (OA) is a prevalent and debilitating condition, necessitating effective and safe treatment options. This systematic review aims to explore the potential of intra-articular mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) infiltrations as a therapeutic approach for hip OA. METHODS Following PRISMA guidelines, a systematic review was conducted, encompassing PubMed, Embase, and Cochrane Library databases. Inclusion criteria involved studies focusing on intra-articular MSC injections in patients with hip OA and reporting pain relief as an outcome measure. Quality assessment utilized the Newcastle-Ottawa scale and methodological index for non-randomized studies. RESULTS Ten studies were included in the review, exhibiting varied designs and sample sizes (316 patients). Outcome measures consisted of cartilage repair assessed through MRI and radiographies, pain scores (WOMAC, VAS, NRS), and functional improvements (HOS-ADL, OHS, FRI, PDQQ, LEFS). The studies reported favorable improvements in functional scores, pain relief, and cartilage repair/radiographic findings, with minimal reported adverse events. CONCLUSIONS Intra-articular MSC infiltrations demonstrate promise as an effective and safe therapeutic intervention for managing hip OA, offering pain relief and functional enhancements. Nevertheless, limited high-quality studies and outcome measure variations underscore the need for further research to establish definitive treatment guidelines. Future investigations should address optimal MSC utilization, long-term outcomes, and potential complications to ensure the success of MSC-based therapies for hip OA management, ultimately improving patient outcomes. The findings provide valuable insights into the potential of MSC-based treatments for hip OA, advocating further rigorous research in this field. TRIAL REGISTRATION The protocol was registered on PROSPERO database (CRD42023436973).

Trends Biotechnol 2024; 42:859-876. [PMID: 38320911 DOI: 10.1016/j.tibtech.2024.01.001] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/13/2023] [Revised: 01/08/2024] [Accepted: 01/08/2024] [Indexed: 02/08/2024]
Abstract
Microcarrier expansion systems show exciting potential to revolutionise mesenchymal stromal cell (MSC)-based clinical therapies by providing an opportunity for economical large-scale expansion of donor- and patient-derived cells. The poor reproducibility and efficiency of cell expansion on commercial polystyrene microcarriers have driven the development of novel microcarriers with tuneable physical, mechanical, and cell-instructive properties. These new microcarriers show innovation toward improving cell expansion outcomes, although their limited biological characterisation and compatibility with dynamic culture systems suggest the need to realign the microcarrier design pathway. Clear headway has been made toward developing infrastructure necessary for scaling up these technologies; however, key challenges remain in characterising the wholistic effects of microcarrier properties on the biological fate and function of expanded MSCs.

Abstract
Cardiac disorders remain the leading cause of mortality worldwide. Current clinical strategies, including drug therapy, surgical interventions, and organ transplantation offer limited benefits to patients without regenerating the damaged myocardium. Over the past decade, stem cell therapy has generated a keen interest owing to its unique self-renewal and immune privileged characteristics. Furthermore, the ability of stem cells to differentiate into specialized cell types, has made them a popular therapeutic tool against various diseases. This comprehensive review provides an overview of therapeutic potential of different types of stem cells in reference to cardiovascular diseases. Furthermore, it sheds light on the advantages and limitations associated with each cell type. An in-depth analysis of the challenges associated with stem cell research and the hurdles for its clinical translation and their possible solutions have also been elaborated upon. It examines the controversies surrounding embryonic stem cells and the emergence of alternative approaches, such as the use of induced pluripotent stem cells for cardiac therapeutic applications. Overall, this review serves as a valuable resource for researchers, clinicians, and policymakers involved in the field of regenerative medicine, guiding the development of safe and effective stem cell-based therapies to revolutionize patient care.

The effect of augmenting suture material with magnesium and platelet-rich plasma on the in vitro adhesion and proliferation potential of subacromial bursa-derived progenitor cells. JSES Int 2023; 7:2367-2372. [PMID: 37969491 PMCID: PMC10638578 DOI: 10.1016/j.jseint.2023.06.027] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Indexed: 11/17/2023] Open
Abstract
Background Connective tissue subacromial bursa-derived progenitor cells (SBDCs) have been suggested as a potent biologic augment to promote healing of the repaired rotator cuff tendon. Maximizing the amount of retained progenitor cells at the tendon repair site is essential for ensuring an optimal healing environment, warranting a search for proadhesive and proliferative adjuvants. The purpose was to evaluate the effect of magnesium (Mg), platelet-rich plasma (PRP), and a combination of both adjuvants on the in vitro cellular adhesion and proliferation potential of SBDCs on suture material commonly used in rotator cuff surgery. Methods SBDCs were isolated from subacromial bursa samples harvested during rotator cuff repair and cultured in growth media. Commercially available collagen-coated nonabsorbable flat-braided suture was cut into 1-inch pieces, placed into 48-well culture dishes, and sterilized under ultraviolet light. Either a one-time dose of 5 mM sterile Mg, 0.2 mL of PRP, or a combination of both adjuvants was added, while a group without treatment served as a negative control. Cellular proliferation and adhesion assays on suture material were performed for each treatment condition. Results Augmenting the suture with Mg resulted in a significantly increased cellular adhesion (total number of attached cells) of SBDCs compared to PRP alone (31,527 ± 19,884 vs. 13,619 ± 8808; P < .001), no treatment (31,527 ± 19,884 vs. 21,643 ± 8194; P = .016), and combination of both adjuvants (31,527 ± 19,884 vs. 17,121 ± 11,935; P < .001). Further, augmentation with Mg achieved a significant increase in cellular proliferation (absorbance) of SBDCs on suture material when compared to the PRP (0.516 ± 0.207 vs. 0.424 ± 0.131; P = .001) and no treatment (0.516 ± 0.207 vs. 0.383 ± 0.094; P < .001) group. The combination of Mg and PRP showed a significantly higher proliferation potential compared to PRP alone (0.512 ± 0.194 vs. 0.424 ± 0.131; P = .001) and no treatment (0.512 ± 0.194 vs. 0.383 ± 0.094; P < .001). There were no significant differences in the remaining intergroup comparisons (P > .05, respectively). Conclusion Augmenting suture material with Mg resulted in a significantly increased cellular adhesion of SBDCs compared to untreated suture material, as well as augmentation with PRP alone or a combination of both adjuvants. Further, Mg with or without PRP augmentation achieved a significant increase in the cellular proliferation of SBDCs on suture material compared to untreated sutures and augmentation with PRP alone. Application of Mg may be a clinically feasible approach to optimizing the use of SBDCs as a biological augment in rotator cuff repair, while combined augmentation with PRP may harness the full potential for optimized tissue recovery due to the high concentration of PRP-derived growth factors.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To appraise and compare the reparative role of bone marrow-mesenchymal stem cells (BM-MSCs) and platelet-rich plasma (PRP) against irradiation damage on albino rats' submandibular gland. DESIGN Seventy four male albino rats were used, one for BM-MSCs harvesting, 10 for PRP preparation, seven as control group (Group 1). The remaining 56 rats were subjected to single dose (6 Gy) gamma irradiation and were divided into equal four groups; (Group 2): received no treatment, (Group 3): each rat was injected with 1 × 105 BM-MSCs, (Group 4): each rat was injected with 0.5 ml/kg PRP, and (Group 5): each rat was injected with 1 × 105 BM-MSCs and 0.5 ml/kg PRP. Each group was further subdivided into two subgroups in which rats sacrificed after one and two weeks from irradiation. Any structural changes were examined histopathologically, immunohistochemically using proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) and CD31 primary antibodies and histochemically using picrosirius red (PSR) stain, then analyzed statistically. RESULTS Histopathological examination of Group 2 showed atrophied acini, with nuclear changes and signs of degeneration in duct systems. Treated groups revealed signs of regeneration in form of uniform acini and regenerated duct systems especially in Group 5 and in a time depended manner. Immunohistochemical examination revealed increased immunoexpression of PCNA and CD31, while histochemical examination showed decreased PSR in all treated groups in relation to the irradiated group and this was proved statistically. CONCLUSIONS BM-MSCs and PRP are effective as treatment for irradiation-induced submandibular gland damage. However, the combined therapy is recommended over each one separately.

Abstract
The preparation of autologous platelet and extracellular vesicle-rich plasma (PVRP) has been explored in many medical fields with the aim to benefit from its healing potential. In parallel, efforts are being invested to understand the function and dynamics of PVRP that is complex in its composition and interactions. Some clinical evidence reveals beneficial effects of PVRP, while some report that there were no effects. To optimize the preparation methods, functions and mechanisms of PVRP, its constituents should be better understood. With the intention to promote further studies of autologous therapeutic PVRP, we performed a review on some topics regarding PVRP composition, harvesting, assessment and preservation, and also on clinical experience following PVRP application in humans and animals. Besides the acknowledged actions of platelets, leukocytes and different molecules, we focus on extracellular vesicles that were found abundant in PVRP.

Abstract
Fertility preservation is one of the most important issues in assisted reproductive technology. Previous studies have shown that cytokines and growth factors can improve follicle growth. The endometrial stromal cells secrete various factors that are involved in maintaining the integrity of uterine and epithelial secretory function. The platelet-rich plasma contains a large assembly of platelets suspended in plasma that successfully improves the viability and growth of various cell lines. This work aimed to investigate the influences of conditioned medium (CM) and platelet-rich plasma (PRP) on the development of ovarian follicles in infertile mice due to cyclophosphamide (CYC) exposure. In this study, 65 healthy BALB/c female mice (∼28-30 g and 6-8 weeks old) in five groups were studied. Immunohistochemistry (IHC) was used to detect growth differentiation factor 9 (GDF9)-positive cells. The mRNA expression levels of SMAD1, SMAD2, and BMP15 was assessed using reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) method. The expression levels of SMAD1, GDF9, BMP15, and SMAD2 in the CM+PRP group was significantly more than in the CM and PRP groups. In addition, live birth occurred in the CM+PRP group. Treatment with CM+PRP in infertile mice due to Cy exposure increased fertility and live-birth rate. In general, our study suggested that the CM and PRP combination could improve the growth of mice ovarian follicles in vivo.

Abstract
Background Myelosuppression is a common condition during chemotherapy. Bone-associated mesenchymal stem cells (BA-MSCs) play an essential role in the composition of the hematopoietic microenvironment and support hematopoietic activity. However, chemotherapy-induced damage to BA-MSCs is rarely studied. Recent studies have shown that platelets promote the wound-healing capability of MSCs by mitochondrial transfer. Therefore, this study is aimed at investigating the chemotherapy-induced damage to BA-MSCs and the therapeutic effect of platelet-derived mitochondria. Material/Methods. We established in vivo and in vitro BA-MSC chemotherapy injury models using the chemotherapy agent 5-fluorouracil (5-FU). Changes in the mitochondrial dynamics were detected by transmission electron microscopy, and the expression of mitochondrial fusion and fission genes was analyzed by qRT-PCR. In addition, mitochondrial functions were also explored by flow cytometry and luminometer. Platelet-derived mitochondria were incubated with 5-FU-damaged BA-MSCs to repair the injury, and BA-MSC functional changes were examined to assess the therapy efficacy. The mechanism of treatment was explored by studying the expression of mitochondrial fission and fusion genes and hematopoietic regulatory factor genes in BA-MSCs. Results Stimulation with 5-FU increased the apoptosis and suppressed cell cycle progression of BA-MSCs both in vivo and in vitro. In addition, 5-FU chemotherapy inhibited the hematopoietic regulatory ability and disrupted the mitochondrial dynamics and functions of BA-MSCs. The mitochondrial membrane potential and ATP content of 5-FU-injured BA-MSCs were decreased. Interestingly, when platelet-derived mitochondria were transferred to BA-MSCs, the 5-FU-induced apoptosis was alleviated, and the hematopoietic regulatory ability of 5-FU-injured BA-MSCs was effectively improved by upregulating the expression of mitochondrial fusion genes and hematopoietic regulatory factor genes. Conclusion BA-MSCs were severely damaged by 5-FU chemotherapy both in vivo and in vitro. Meanwhile, platelet-derived mitochondria could attenuate the 5-FU-induced injury to BA-MSCs, which provides future research directions for exploring the treatment strategies for chemotherapy-injured BA-MSCs and establishes a research basis for related fields.

Abstract
Bone-marrow-mesenchymal-stromal-cells (BMSCs)- and platelet-rich-plasma (PRP)-based therapies have shown potential for treating osteoarthritis (OA). Recently, the combination of these two approaches was proposed, with results that overcame those observed with the separate treatments, indicating a possible role of PRP in ameliorating BMSCs' regenerative properties. Since a molecular fingerprint of BMSCs cultivated in the presence of PRP is missing, the aim of this study was to characterize the secretome in terms of soluble factors and extracellular-vesicle (EV)-embedded miRNAs from the perspective of tissues, pathways, and molecules which frame OA pathology. One hundred and five soluble factors and one hundred eighty-four EV-miRNAs were identified in the PRP-treated BMSCs' secretome, respectively. Several soluble factors were related to the migration of OA-related immune cells, suggesting the capacity of BMSCs to attract lympho-, mono-, and granulocytes and modulate their inflammatory status. Accordingly, several EV-miRNAs had an immunomodulating role at both the single-factor and cell level, together with the ability to target OA-characterizing extracellular-matrix-degrading enzymes and cartilage destruction pathways. Overall, anti-inflammatory and protective signals far exceeded inflammation and destruction cues for cartilage, macrophages, and T cells. This study demonstrates that BMSCs cultivated in the presence of PRP release therapeutic molecules and give molecular ground for the use of this combined and innovative therapy for OA treatment.

Abstract
Amniotic fluid represents a new and promising source of engraftable stem cells. The purpose of this study was to investigate the in vitro effects of platelet-rich plasma (PRP) on amniotic-fluid-derived stem cells (AFSCs) on chondrogenic or osteogenic differentiation potential. Amniotic fluid samples were obtained from women undergoing amniocentesis for prenatal diagnosis at 16-18 weeks of pregnancy. Undifferentiated human AFSCs were cocultured with PRP for 14 days. The study includes two protocols investigating the effects of activated PRP using two different methods: via freeze-thaw cycles and via the addition of calcium gluconate. On the 14th day of culturing, the differentiation potential of the cocultured AFSCs was then compared with undifferentiated AFSCs. Staining with alcian blue solution (ABS) and alizarine red solution (ARS) was performed, and chondrogenic- and osteogenic-associated genes markers were investigated. ABS demonstrated enhanced glycosaminoglycan expression. Cocultured cells expressed chondrocyte-associated genes, determined by real-time polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR), including type I collagen, type II collagen, COMP, and aggrecan. In regard to the osteogenic markers, osteopontin and bone sialoprotein, there were no changes. In particular, the activation of PRP using the freeze-thaw cycle protocol showed a higher expression of the chondrogenic markers. Our preliminary in vitro results showed that PRP has good potential in the chondrogenic differentiation of AFSCs.

Abstract
Osteoarthritis (OA) is the most common form of degenerative joint disease, affecting more than 25% of the adults despite its prevalence in the elderly population. Most of the current therapeutic modalities aim at symptomatic treatment which lingers the disease progression. In recent years, regenerative medicine such as stem cell transplantation and tissue engineering has been suggested as a potential curative intervention for OA. The objective of this current study was to assess the safety and efficacy of an injectable tissue-engineered construct composed of rat bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (rBMMSCs), platelet-rich plasma (PRP), and collagen type I in rat model of OA. To produce collagen type I, PRP and rBMMSCs, male Wistar rats were ethically euthanized. After isolation, culture, expansion and characterization of rBMMSCs, tissue-engineered construct was formed by a combination of appropriate amount of collagen type I, PRP and rBMMSCs. In vitro studies were conducted to evaluate the effect of PRP on chondrogenic differentiation capacity of encapsulated cells. In the following, the tissue-engineered construct was injected in knee joints of rat models of OA (24 rats in 4 groups: OA, OA + MSC, OA + collagen + MSC + PRP, OA + MSC + collagen). After 6 weeks, the animals were euthanized and knee joint histopathology examinations of knee joint samples were performed to evaluate the effect of each treatment on OA. Tissue-engineered construct was successfully manufactured and in vitro assays demonstrated the relevant chondrogenic genes and proteins expression were higher in PRP group than that of others. Histopathological findings of the knee joint samples showed favorable regenerative effect of rBMMSCs + PRP + collagen group compared to others. We introduced an injectable tissue-engineered product composed of rBMMSCs + PRP + collagen with potential regenerative effect on cartilage that has been damaged by OA.

Abstract
No injection treatment has been proven to be effective in wrist osteoarthritis. When conservative measures fail, its management involves invasive surgery. Emergence of biotherapies based on adipose derived stem cells (ADSC) offers promising treatments for chondral degenerative diseases. Microfat (MF) and platelets-rich plasma (PRP) mixture, rich in growth factors and ADSC could be a minimally invasive injectable option in the treatment of wrist osteoarthritis. The aim of this uncontrolled prospective study was to evaluate the safety of a 4 mL autologous MF-PRP intra-articular injection, performed under local anesthesia. The secondary purpose was to describe the clinical and MRI results at 12 months of follow-up. Patients' data collected were: occurrence of adverse effects, Visual analog scale (VAS), Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder and Hand score (DASH) and Patient-Rated Wrist Evaluation (PRWE) scores, wrist strength, wrist range of motion and 5-level satisfaction scale. No serious adverse event was recorded. A statistically significant decrease in pain, DASH, PRWE and force was observed at each follow-up. Our preliminary results suggest that intra-articular autologous MF and PRP injection may be a new therapeutic strategy for wrist osteoarthritis resistant to medical symptomatic treatment prior to surgical interventions.

Evaluation of the Regenerative Potential of Platelet-Lysate and Platelet-Poor Plasma Derived from the Cord Blood Units in Corneal Wound Healing Applications: An In Vitro Comparative Study on Corneal Epithelial Cells. Curr Issues Mol Biol 2022; 44:4415-4438. [PMID: 36286018 PMCID: PMC9600746 DOI: 10.3390/cimb44100303] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/06/2022] [Revised: 09/14/2022] [Accepted: 09/14/2022] [Indexed: 11/16/2022] Open
Abstract
Background: Cord blood platelet lysate (CB-PL) and cord blood platelet poor plasma (CB-PPP) have been applied with success in wound healing applications. Pathologies such as Sjogrens’s Syndrome (SS) and chronic graft versus host disease (cGVHD) can lead to severe ophthalmology issues. The application of CB-PL and CB-PPP may be strongly considered for damaged cornea healing. This study aimed to the evaluation of the beneficial properties of CB-PL and CB-PPP in corneal wound healing applications. Methods: Initially, the CB-PL and CB-PPP were produced from donated cord blood units (CBUs), followed by biochemical analysis. Corneal epithelial cells (CECs) were isolated from wistar rats and then cultured with medium containing 20% v/v either of CB-PL or CB-PPP. To define the impact of CB-PL and CB-PPP, biochemical, morphological analysis, scratch-wound assays, and immunoassays in CECs were performed. Results: CB-PL and CB-PPP were characterized by good biochemical parameters, regarding their quality characteristics and biomolecule content. CECs’ morphological features did not change after their cultivation with CB-PL or CB-PPP. A scratch wound assay and molecular analysis of CECs expanded with CB-PL indicated higher migratory capacity compared to those cultured with CB-PPP. Conclusion: CB-PL and CB-PPP exhibited good properties with respect to cell migration and proliferation, and could be considered an alternative source for eye drop production, to possibly be used in cornea wound healing applications.

Autologous Platelet Rich Plasma (PRGF) Preserves Genomic Stability of Gingival Fibroblasts and Alveolar Osteoblasts after Long-Term Cell Culture. Dent J (Basel) 2022; 10:dj10090173. [PMID: 36135168 PMCID: PMC9497518 DOI: 10.3390/dj10090173] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/08/2022] [Revised: 08/26/2022] [Accepted: 09/07/2022] [Indexed: 12/04/2022] Open
Abstract
Plasma rich in growth factors (PRGF) has several applications in dentistry that may require repeated applications of PRGF. Furthermore, it has been used for ex vivo expansion of human origin cells for their clinical application. One of the most relevant issues in these applications is to guarantee the genetic stability of cells. In this study, the chromosomal stability of gingival fibroblasts and alveolar osteoblasts after long-term culture was evaluated. Cells were expanded with PRGF or foetal bovine serum (FBS) as a culture medium supplement until passage 7 or 8 for gingival fibroblast or alveolar osteoblasts, respectively. A comparative genomic hybridization (CGH) array was used for the genetic stability study. This analysis was performed at passage 3 and after long-term culture with the corresponding culture medium supplements. The cell proliferative rate was superior after PRGF culture. Array CGH analysis of cells maintained with all the three supplements did not reveal the existence of alterations in copy number or genetic instability. The autologous PRGF technology preserves the genomic stability of cells and emerges as a safe substitute for FBS as a culture medium supplement for the clinical translation of cell therapy.

Abstract
Regenerative medicine, based on the use of autologous tissues and embryonic, stem or differentiated cells, is gaining growing interest. However, their preparation, in a manner compliant with good practices and health regulations, is a technical challenge. The aim of this manuscript is to present the design of reliable CE marked medical devices for the preparation of standardized platelet-rich plasma (PRP) and other autologous biologics intended for therapeutic uses. There are numerous PRP isolation processes. Depending on the methodology used, PRP composition varies greatly in terms of platelet concentration, platelet quality, and level of contamination with red and white blood cells. This variability in PRP composition might affect the clinical outcomes. The devices presented here are based on a specific technology, patented all over the world, that allows the precise separation of blood components as a function of their density using thixotropic separator gels in closed systems. This allows the preparation, in an automated manner, of leukocyte poor PRP with a standardized composition. Production of different forms of PRP is a clinical asset to suit various therapeutic needs. Therefore, we are offering solutions to prepare PRP either in liquid or gel form, and PRP combined with hyaluronic acid. These biologics have been successfully used in many different therapeutic domains, resulting in more than 150 published clinical studies. We also developed the CuteCell technology platform for cell culture expansion for further autologous cell therapies. This technology enables the safe and rapid in vitro expansion of cells intended for therapeutic use in good manufacturing practices (GMP) and autologous conditions, using blood-derived products as culture media supplementation. We summarize in this article our 20 years’ experience of research and development for the design of PRP devices and, more recently, for PRP combined with hyaluronic acid.

Abstract
Peripheral arterial disease is atherosclerotic occlusive disease of the lower extremity arteries and afflicts hundreds of millions of individuals worldwide. Its most severe manifestation is chronic limb-threatening ischemia (Petersen et al. (Science 300(5622):1140–2, 2003)), which is associated with severe pain at rest in the limbs, which progresses to necrosis, limb amputation, and/or death of the patient. Consequently, the care of these patients is considered a financial burden for both patients and health systems. Multidisciplinary endeavors are required to address this refractory disease and to find definitive solutions that lead to improved living conditions. Revascularization is the cornerstone of therapy for preventing limb amputation, and both open vascular surgery and endovascular therapy play a key role in the treatment of patients with CLI. Around one-third of these patients are not candidates for conventional surgical treatment, however, leading to higher amputation rates (approaching 20–25% at one year) with high morbidity and lower quality of life. Advances in regenerative medicine have enabled the development of cell-based therapies that promote the formation of new blood vessels. Particularly, mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) have emerged as an attractive therapeutic agent in various diseases, including CLI, due to their role in tissue regeneration and immunomodulation. This review discusses the characteristics of MSCs, as well as their regenerative properties and their action mechanisms on CLI.

Abstract
There has been an explosion in scientific interest in using human-platelet-rich plasma (PRP) as a substitute of xenogeneic sera in cell-based therapies. However, there is a need to create standardization in this field. This systematic review is based on literature searches in PubMed and Web of Science databases until June 2021. Forty-one studies completed the selection criteria. The composition of PRP was completely reported in less than 30% of the studies. PRP has been used as PRP-derived supernatant or non-activated PRP. Two ranges could be identified for platelet concentration, the first between 0.14 × 106 and 0.80 × 106 platelets/µL and the second between 1.086 × 106 and 10 × 106 platelets/µL. Several studies have pooled PRP with a pool size varying from four to nine donors. The optimal dose for the PRP or PRP supernatant is 10%. PRP or PRP-derived supernatants a have positive effect on MSC colony number and size, cell proliferation, cell differentiation and genetic stability. The use of leukocyte-depleted PRP has been demonstrated to be a feasible alternative to xenogeneic sera. However, there is a need to improve the description of the PRP preparation methodology as well as its composition. Several items are identified and reported to create guidelines for future research.

Abstract
Determination of the mesenchymal stem cells is one of the greatest and most exciting achievements that tissue engineering and regenerative medicine have achieved. Adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells (AD-MSC) are easily isolated and cultured for a long time before losing their stem cell characteristics, which are self-renewal and pluripotency. AD-MSC are mesenchymal stem cells that have pluripotent lineage characteristics. They are easily accessible, and the fraction of stem cells in the adipose tissue lysates is highest among all other sources of mesenchymal stem cells. It is also HLA-DR negative and can be transplanted allogenically without the need for immunosuppression. These advantages have popularized its use in many fields including plastic reconstructive surgery. However, in the field of hepatology and liver transplantation, the progress is slower. AD-MSC have the potential to modulate inflammation, ameliorate ischemia-reperfusion injury, and support liver and biliary tract regeneration. These are very important for the treatment of various hepatobiliary diseases. Furthermore, the anti-inflammatory potential of these cells has paramount importance in the treatment of sepsis. We need alternative therapeutic approaches to treat end-stage liver failure. AD-MSC can provide a means of therapy to bridge to definitive therapeutic alternatives such as liver transplantation. Here we propose to review theoretic applications of AD-MSC in the treatment of hepatobiliary diseases and sepsis.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Given the potential applications of combined biologics, the authors sought to evaluate the in vitro effect of combined platelet-rich plasma (PRP) and hyaluronic acid (HA) on cellular metabolism. DESIGN Bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) and chondrocytes were obtained from the femurs of Sprague-Dawley rats. An inflammatory model was created by adding 10 ng/mL interleukin-1-beta to culture media. Non-crosslinked high-molecular-weight HA, activated-PRP (aPRP), and unactivated-PRP (uPRP) were tested. Cellular proliferation and gene expression were measured at 1 week. Genes of interest included aggrecan, matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)-9, and MMP-13. RESULTS Combined uPRP-HA was associated with a significant increase in chondrocyte and BMSC proliferation at numerous preparations. There was a trend of increased chondrocyte aggrecan expression with combined PRP-HA. The greatest and only significant decrease in BMSC MMP-9 expression was observed with combined PRP-HA. While a significant reduction of BMSC MMP-13 expression was seen with PRP and HA-alone, a greater reduction was observed with PRP-HA. MMP-9 chondrocyte expression was significantly reduced in cells treated with PRP-HA. PRP-alone and HA-alone at identical concentrations did not result in a significant reduction. The greatest reduction of MMP-13 chondrocyte expression was observed in chondrocytes plus combined PRP-HA. CONCLUSIONS We demonstrated a statistically significant increase in BMSC and chondrocyte proliferation and decreased expression of catabolic enzymes with combined PRP-HA. These results demonstrate the additive in vitro effect of combined PRP-HA to stimulate cellular growth, restore components of the articular extracellular matrix, and reduce inflammation.

Abstract
The use of stem cells in regenerative medicine, including tissue engineering and transplantation, has generated a great deal of enthusiasm. Mesenchymal stromal/stem cells (MSCs) can be isolated from various tissues, most commonly, bone marrow but more recently adipose tissue, dental pulp, and Wharton's jelly, to name a few. MSCs display varying phenotypic profiles and osteogenic differentiating capacity depending and their site of origin. MSCs have been successfully differentiated into osteoblasts both in vitro an in vivo but discrepancies exist when the two are compared: what happens in vitro does not necessarily happen in vivo, and it is therefore important to understand why these differences occur. The osteogenic process is a complex network of transcription factors, stimulators, inhibitors, proteins, etc., and in vivo experiments are helpful in evaluating the various aspects of this osteogenic process without distractions and confounding variables. With that in mind, the results of in vitro experiments need to be carefully considered and interpreted with caution as they do not perfectly replicate the conditions found within living organisms. This is where in vivo experiments help us better understand interactions that might occur in the osteogenic process that cannot be replicated in vitro. Potentially, these differences could also be exploited to develop an optimal MSC cell therapeutic product that can be used for bone disorders. There are many bone disorders, most of which cause a great deal of discomfort. Clinically acceptable protocols could be developed in which MSCs are used to aid in bone regeneration providing relief for patients with chronic pain. The aim of this review is to examine the differences between studies conducted in vitro and in vivo with regard to the osteogenic process to better define the gaps in current osteogenic research. By better understanding osteogenic differentiation, we can better define treatment strategies for various bone disorders.

Abstract
The knowledge of the essential role of platelets in tissue healing is gradually increasing and as regenerative medicine prompts new solutions, platelet-derived bioproducts have been proposed as a potential tool in this field. In orthopaedics and sports medicine, the use of PRP has been rapidly increasing in popularity as patients seek novel non-surgical approaches to acute and chronic musculoskeletal conditions. The concept of having platelets as a secretory organ other than a mere sponge-like coagulation component opens up new frontiers for the use of the platelet secretome. Platelet lysate is a solution saturated by growth factors, proteins, cytokines, and chemokines involved in crucial healing processes and is administered to treat different diseases such as alopecia, oral mucositis, radicular pain, osteoarthritis, and cartilage and tendon disorders. For this purpose, the abundant presence of growth factors and chemokines stored in platelet granules can be naturally released by different strategies, mostly through lyophilization, thrombin activation or ultrasound baths (ultrasonication). As a result, human platelet lysate can be produced and applied as a pure orthobiologic. This review outlines the current knowledge about human platelet lysate as a powerful adjuvant in the orthobiological use for the treatment of musculoskeletal injuries, without however failing to raise some of its most applicable basic science.

Abstract
Platelet-derived preparations are being used in clinic for their role in tissue repair and regenerative processes. The release of platelet-derived products such as autologous growth factors, cytokines and chemokines can trigger therapeutic angiogenesis. In this in vitro study, we evaluated and compared the ability of three platelet-derived preparations: platelet-rich-plasma (PRP), PRP-hyaluronic acid (PRP-HA) and platelet lysates (PL) at various concentrations (5–40%) to modulate human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVEC) biological effects on metabolism, viability, senescence, angiogenic factors secretion and angiogenic capacities in 2D (endothelial tube formation assay or EFTA) and in 3D (fibrin bead assay or FBA). HUVEC exocytosis was stimulated with PRP and PRP-HA. Cell viability was strongly increased by PRP and PRP-HA but mildly by PL. The three preparations inhibit HUVEC tube formation on Matrigel, while PRP enhanced the complexity of the network. In the fibrin bead assay (FBA), PRP and PRP-HA stimulated all steps of the angiogenic process resulting in massive sprouting of a branched microvessel network, while PL showed a weaker angiogenic response. Secretome profiling revealed modulation of 26 human angiogenic proteins upon treatment with the platelet derived preparations. These in vitro experiments suggest that PRP and PRP-HA are effective biological therapeutic tools when sustained therapeutic angiogenesis is needed.

Abstract
Platelet aggregates, such as PRP, PRF, and CGF, have been used alone or in combination with other grafting materials to enhance restoration outcomes. The process for preparing these autografting materials requires two-step centrifugation or specific centrifuges. In this study, we obtained an injectable fibrin scaffold (IFS) rich in growth factors by one-step centrifugation of whole blood from rabbits. The purpose of this study is to introduce some characteristics of IFS. This scaffold was characterized using various techniques, including Masson's trichrome staining, scanning electron microscopy, porosity measurements, and cell counting. The sustained release of growth factors, including PDGF, VEGF, TGF-β1, IGF, FGF, and EGF, was quantified using ELISA assay. The obtained IFS was tested for its effects on cell proliferation, extracellular matrix deposition, and full-thickness skin defect repair. The prepared IFS is characterized by a loose fibrin network structure with white blood cells and platelets that slowly release growth factors and can promote the healing of skin defects via the promotion of cell proliferation, collagen deposition, and tissue revascularization. In addition, its liquid properties and porous structure are conducive to its application as a therapeutic component in tissue engineering.

Abstract
Adipose-derived stem cells (ADSCs) can maintain self-renewal and enhanced multidifferentiation potential through the release of a variety of paracrine factors and extracellular vesicles, allowing them to repair damaged organs and tissues. Consequently, considerable attention has increasingly been paid to their application in tissue engineering and organ regeneration. Here, we provide a comprehensive overview of the current status of ADSC preparation, including harvesting, isolation, and identification. The advances in preclinical and clinical evidence-based ADSC therapy for bone, cartilage, myocardium, liver, and nervous system regeneration as well as skin wound healing are also summarized. Notably, the perspectives, potential challenges, and future directions for ADSC-related researches are discussed. We hope that this review can provide comprehensive and standardized guidelines for the safe and effective application of ADSCs to achieve predictable and desired therapeutic effects.

The optimal platelet concentration in platelet-rich plasma for proliferation of human cells in vitro-diversity, biases, and possible basic experimental principles for further research in the field: A review. PeerJ 2020; 8:e10303.

Abstract
BACKGROUND In the last decades, several in vitro studies have tested the effect of plate-rich plasma (PRP) on the proliferation of human cells in search of a wizard for the use of PRP in a clinical setting. However, the literature displays striking differences regarding this question despite the relatively similar experimental design. The aim of this review is twofold: describe and explain this diversity and suggest basic principles for further in vitro studies in the field. The optimal platelet concentration in vivo will also be discussed. METHODS A search in mainly EMBASE and PubMed was performed to identify in vitro studies that investigate the effect of different PRP concentrations on human cell proliferation. The assessment of bias was based on the principles of "Good Cell Culture Practice" and adapted. RESULTS In total, 965 in vitro studies were detected. After the initial screening, 31 studies remained for full-text screening. A total of 16 studies met the criteria of final inclusion and appeared relatively sound. In general, the studies state consistently that PRP stimulates the proliferation of the human cell. Two main types of experimental techniques were detected: 1. The Fixed PRP Concentration Group using a fixed PRP concentration throughout the experiment, which leads to a substantial decrease in nutrition available at higher concentrations. 2. The Fixed PRP Volume Group using a fixed PRP-to-media ratio (Vol/Vol) throughout the experiment. A general tendency was observed in both groups: when the PRP to media ratio increased (Vol/Vol), the proliferation rate decreased. Further, The Low Leukocyte group observed a substantial higher optimal PRP concentration than The High leukocyte group. No prominent tendencies was seen regarding anticoagulants, activation methods, and blood donor (age or sex). DISCUSSION Two major biases regarding optimal proliferation in vitro is pointed out: 1. Too high PRP volume. It is speculated that the techniques used by some studies led to an adverse growth condition and even cell starvation at higher concentrations. 2. High leukocyte levels. Reduced proliferation rate due to proinflammatory substances released during degranulation of leukocytes. CONCLUSIONS The two main biases may explain the bell-shaped effect of PRP and the detrimental effects at higher platelet concentrations observed in several studies. These biases may also explain the low optimal PRP concentration observed in some studies. Even if one universal optimal PRP concentration does not exist, the review indicates that PRP concentrations in the upper parts of the scale is optimal or at least beneficial. Finally, following basic experimental principles are suggested. 1: The PRP/media ratio (Vol/Vol) should be kept as constant. 2: The PRP/media ratio should provide a sufficient nutrition supply, that is, PRP ≤ 10% (Vol/Vol). 3: The cell density per well (cells/mL) should be defined. 4: Leukocyte level should be kept low, preferable depleted (< 0.1 PLT/µL).

Abstract
Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) has seen increased interest and utilization over the past decade, particularly in the field of musculoskeletal disease. This growth has been accompanied by the development of medical devices to realize PRP preparation which includes blood collection, centrifugation, and PRP isolation. The final PRP composition is directly influenced by this preparation step and absence of biological quality control led to a lack of comparability between PRP products that could explain the large variability in the clinical benefit of PRP reported in literature. To circumvent this issue, the scientific community developed different PRP classifications but none of them have been adopted. The goal of this review is to furnish both technical and biological characteristics from PRP commercial systems. On review of 1379 studies, 105 studies were selected according to inclusion criteria for technical analysis and led to the identification of 50 commercial systems that have been classified in three technical categories based on the blood harvesting technique (tubes, syringes or bags). Twelve studies were selected and sufficiently describe biological characteristics from only 14 commercial systems from the 50 identified in the technical analysis. Inclusion of duplicates characterization from a same PRP system lead to the final analysis of 36 PRP preparations that met the inclusion criteria of the biological analysis. All these PRP preparations have been classified among the seven existing classifications. Comparison from all biological parameters and classifications revealed a large heterogeneity among the available current PRP commercial systems. Index of biological sensitivity of classifications to distinguish PRP preparations were also variable. Although these findings should help clinicians in selecting a system that meets their specific needs, this also raises the question to standardize the parameters to biologically define PRP preparation among users and to systematically performed PRP qualification when used.

Abstract
Background Surgical reconstruction of chronic wounds is often infeasible due to infection, comorbidities, or poor viability of local tissues. The aim of this study was to describe the authors’ technique for improving the regenerative and antimicrobial potential of a combination of modified nanofat and platelet-rich plasma (PRP) in nonhealing infected wounds. Methods Fourteen patients met the inclusion criteria. Fat tissue was harvested from the lower abdomen following infiltration of a solution of 1,000 mL of NaCl solution, 225 mg of ropivacaine, and 1 mg of epinephrine. Aspiration was performed using a 3-mm cannula with 1-mm holes. The obtained solution was decanted and mechanically emulsified, but was not filtered. Non-activated leukocyte-rich PRP (naLR-PRP) was added to the solution before injection. Patients underwent three sessions of injection of 8-mL naLR-PRP performed at 2-week intervals. Results Thirteen of 14 patients completed the follow-up. Complete healing was achieved in seven patients (53.8%). Four patients (30.8%) showed improvement, with a mean ulcer width reduction of 57.5%±13.8%. Clinical improvements in perilesional skin quality were reported in all patients, with reduced erythema, increased thickness, and increased pliability. An overall wound depth reduction of 76.6%±40.8% was found. Pain was fully alleviated in all patients who underwent re-epithelization. A mean pain reduction of 42%±33.3% (as indicated by visual analog scale score) was found in non-re-epithelized patients at a 3-month follow-up. Conclusions The discussed technique facilitated improvement of both the regenerative and the antimicrobial potential of fat grafting. It proved effective in surgically-untreatable infected chronic wounds unresponsive to conventional therapies.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Cartilage tissue engineering is a promising technique for repairing cartilage defect. Due to the limitation of cell number and proliferation, mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) have been developed as a substitute to chondrocytes as a cartilage cell-source. This study aimed to develop cartilage tissue from human adipose-derived stem cells (ADSCs) cultured on a Bombyx mori silk fibroin scaffold and supplemented with 10% platelet-rich plasma (PRP). METHODS Human ADSCs and PRP were characterized. A silk fibroin scaffold with 500 μm pore size was fabricated through salt leaching. ADSCs were then cultured on the scaffold (ADSC-SS) and supplemented with 10% PRP for 21 days to examine cell proliferation, chondrogenesis, osteogenesis, and surface marker expression. The messenger ribonucleic acid (mRNA) expression of type 2 collagen, aggrecan, and type 1 collagen was analysed. The presence of type 2 collagen confirming chondrogenesis was validated using immunocytochemistry. The negative and positive controls were ADSC-SS supplemented with 10% foetal bovine serum (FBS) and ADSC-SS supplemented with commercial chondrogenesis medium, respectively. RESULTS Cells isolated from adipose tissue were characterized as ADSCs. Proliferation of the ADSC-SS PRP was significantly increased (p < 0.05) compared to that of controls. Chondrogenesis was observed in ADSC-SS PRP and was confirmed through the increase in glycosaminoglycans (GAG) and transforming growth factor-β1 (TGF-β1) secretion, the absence of mineral deposition, and increased surface marker proteins on chondrogenic progenitors. The mRNA expression of type 2 collagen in ADSC-SS PRP was significantly increased (p < 0.05) compared to that in the negative control on days 7 and 21; however, aggrecan was significantly increased on day 14 compared to the controls. ADSC-SS PRP showed stable mRNA expression of type 1 collagen up to 14 days and it was significantly decreased on day 21. Confocal analysis showed the presence of type 2 collagen in the ADSC-SS PRP and positive control groups, with high distribution outside the cells forming the extracellular matrix (ECM) on day 21. CONCLUSION Our study showed that ADSC-SS with supplemented 10% PRP medium can effectively support chondrogenesis of ADSCs in vitro and promising for further development as an alternative for cartilage tissue engineering in vivo.

[PMID: 31801246 PMCID: PMC6966474 DOI: 10.3390/biomedicines7040094] [Citation(s) in RCA: 13] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.6] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/10/2019] [Revised: 11/23/2019] [Accepted: 11/26/2019] [Indexed: 01/03/2023] Open
Abstract
To evaluate whether grafting of autologous mesenchymal cells, adipose-derived stem cells, and platelet-rich plasma into the supracoroideal space by surgical treatment with the Limoli retinal restoration technique (LRRT) can exert a beneficial effect in retinitis pigmentosa (RP) patients. Twenty-one eyes underwent surgery and were divided based on retinal foveal thickness (FT) ≤ 190 or > 190 µm into group A-FT and group B-FT, respectively. The specific LRRT triad was grafted in a deep scleral pocket above the choroid of each eye. At 6-month follow-up, group B showed a non-significant improvement in residual close-up visus and sensitivity at microperimetry compared to group A. After an in-depth review of molecular biology studies concerning degenerative phenomena underlying the etiopathogenesis of retinitis pigmentosa (RP), it was concluded that further research is needed on tapeto-retinal degenerations, both from a clinical and molecular point of view, to obtain better functional results. In particular, it is necessary to increase the number of patients, extend observation timeframes, and treat subjects in the presence of still trophic retinal tissue to allow adequate biochemical and functional catering.

Platelet-Rich Plasma Improves the Wound Healing Potential of Mesenchymal Stem Cells through Paracrine and Metabolism Alterations. Stem Cells Int 2019; 2019:1234263. [PMID: 31781232 PMCID: PMC6875194 DOI: 10.1155/2019/1234263] [Citation(s) in RCA: 117] [Impact Index Per Article: 23.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/27/2019] [Revised: 08/27/2019] [Accepted: 09/10/2019] [Indexed: 11/17/2022] Open
Abstract
Chronic and acute nonhealing wounds represent a major public health problem, and replacement of cutaneous lesions by the newly regenerated skin is challenging. Mesenchymal stem cells (MSC) and platelet-rich plasma (PRP) were separately tested in the attempt to regenerate the lost skin. However, these treatments often remained inefficient to achieve complete wound healing. Additional studies suggested that PRP could be used in combination with MSC to improve the cell therapy efficacy for tissue repair. However, systematic studies related to the effects of PRP on MSC properties and their ability to rebuild skin barrier are lacking. We evaluated in a mouse exhibiting 4 full-thickness wounds, the skin repair ability of a treatment combining human adipose-derived MSC and human PRP by comparison to treatment with saline solution, PRP alone, or MSC alone. Wound healing in these animals was measured at day 3, day 7, and day 10. In addition, we examined in vitro and in vivo whether PRP alters in MSC their proangiogenic properties, their survival, and their proliferation. We showed that PRP improved the efficacy of engrafted MSC to replace lost skin in mice by accelerating the wound healing processes and ameliorating the elasticity of the newly regenerated skin. In addition, we found that PRP treatment stimulated in vitro, in a dose-dependent manner, the proangiogenic potential of MSC through enhanced secretion of soluble factors like VEGF and SDF-1. Moreover, PRP treatment ameliorated the survival and activated the proliferation of in vitro cultured MSC and that these effects were accompanied by an alteration of the MSC energetic metabolism including oxygen consumption rate and mitochondrial ATP production. Similar observations were found in vivo following combined administration of PRP and MSC into mouse wounds. In conclusion, our study strengthens that the use of PRP in combination with MSC might be a safe alternative to aid wound healing.

Abstract
Despite the popularity of lipofilling procedures in recent years, the presence of older habits still in fat graft harvesting and processing seems to be the biggest obstacle to the final better outcome of fat grafting. Our study is aimed to highlight some strategies what should be done in fat grafting in the shadow of evidence-based medicine and patient-reported outcomes which might be of interest to the clinicians. Between 2015 and 2017, 14 patients were included who underwent facial micro-autologous fat transplantation with platelet-rich plasma injection. The outcome was determined by the difference in presurgery and postsurgery FACE-Q modules, which were designed as patient-reported outcome instrument to evaluate the unique outcomes of patients undergoing facial cosmetic procedures. Surveys conducted were modules of satisfaction with facial appearance, satisfaction with cheeks, satisfaction with skin, psychological function, social function, aging appearance appraisal, and satisfaction with the outcome. All patients were followed up minimum 9 months. No major complications were recorded. The patient-reported FACE-Q satisfaction and FACE-Q quality-of-life presurgery and postsurgery results showed statistically significant improvement (<0.001). Overall satisfaction with the outcome was 87.6 ± 16.8 (range 55-100). A combination of platelet-rich plasma and micro-fat grafting with soft harvesting and processing could be seen a good surgical technique to restore volume and enhance skin quality in facial soft tissue augmentation. The authors believe that with minimum detrimental effect on fat grafting while harvesting, processing, and with the addition of platelet-rich plasma while applying may increase the surgeon's and patient's satisfaction with the outcome.

Abstract
Osteoarthritis (OA) is a common cause of chronic pain and disability. Regenerative therapies using mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) provide an option for OA treatment as it could potentially regenerate the damaged cartilage. Bone marrow, adipose tissue and synovium are common MSC sources. The aim is to compare the therapeutic effect of MSCs from bone marrow, adipose tissue and synovium; combining its differentiation potential and accessibility, to decide the optimal source of MSCs for the treatment of knee OA. A comparison of preclinical and clinical studies using MSCs has been made with regard to treatment outcomes, isolation procedure and differentiation potential. All types of MSCs are effective at improving the clinical and structural condition of OA patients, but the longevity of the treatment, i.e. an effect that is maintained for at least 2 years, cannot be guaranteed. This review highlighted great variations in selection criteria and culture expansion conditions of MSCs between the literature and clinical trials. It also emphasised a substantial diversity and lack of consistency in the assessment mythology of clinical outcome after completion of MSC therapies procedures. A more cohesive methodology is required to evaluate the outcome of MSC treatments using quantitative and standardised frameworks in order to be able to directly compare results. Larger population of patients are recommended to assess the quality of MSC when designing studies and clinical trials to reaffirm the efficacy of MSC treatment prior to and within the clinical trials and follow up studies.

Abstract
Nowadays autologous fibroblast application for skin repair presents an important clinical interest. In most cases, in vitro skin cell culture is mandatory. However, cell expansion using xenogeneic or allogenic culture media presents some disadvantages, such as the risk of infection transmission or slow cell expansion. In this study, we investigated an autologous culture system to expand human skin fibroblast cells in vitro with the patient's own platelet-rich plasma (PRP). Human dermal fibroblasts were isolated from patients undergoing abdominoplasty, and blood was collected to prepare nonactivated PRP using the CuteCell™ PRP medical device. Cultures were followed up to 7 days using a medium supplemented with either fetal bovine serum (FBS) or PRP. Fibroblasts cultured in medium supplemented with PRP showed dose-dependently significantly higher proliferation rates (up to 7.7 times with 20% of PRP) and initiated a faster migration in the in vitro wound healing assay compared with FBS, while chromosomal stability was maintained. At high concentrations, PRP changed fibroblast morphology, inducing cytoskeleton rearrangement and an increase of alpha-smooth muscle actin and vimentin expression. Our findings show that autologous PRP is an efficient and cost-effective supplement for fibroblast culture, and should be considered as a safe alternative to xenogeneic/allogenic blood derivatives for in vitro cell expansion. Impact Statement Autologous dermal fibroblast graft is an important therapy in skin defect repair, but in vitro skin cell culture is mandatory in most cases. However, cell expansion using xenogeneic/allogenic culture media presents some disadvantages, such as the risk of infection transmission. We demonstrated that an autologous culture system with the patient's own platelet-rich plasma is an efficient, cost-effective, and safe supplement for fibroblast culture. As it respects the good manufacturing practices and regulatory agencies standards, it should be considered as a potent alternative and substitute to xenogeneic or allogenic blood derivatives for the validation of future clinical protocols using in vitro cell expansion.

Abstract
Osteoarthritis associated with hip dysplasia is one of the most common orthopedic abnormalities in dogs, with an incidence of up to 40% in some breeds. Tissue therapy of cartilage has received great attention, with use of mesenchymal stromal cells and different types of biomaterials. The present study aimed to evaluate the effect of platelet lysate (PL) on the proliferation and differentiation of canine adipose tissue-derived mesenchymal stromal cells (ASCs), in liquid culture or hydrogels. PL was prepared from blood collected from healthy dogs and submitted to freezing-thawing cycles, and hydrogel was formed with canine thrombin. The effect of PL on the proliferation and differentiation of canine ASCs was evaluated in liquid and hydrogel systems, with microscopy, quantification of dsDNA, histology and quantification of glycosaminoglycans. The addition of 5% or 10% PL to the culture medium induced a greater proliferation rate than the presence of 10% fetal bovine serum. The cultivation of ASCs in PL gel, with normal or chondrogenic medium, resulted in maintenance of proliferation level similar to the conventional 2D cultivation, and induction of chondrogenic differentiation, especially in the presence of the chondrogenesis induction medium.

Abstract
: Freeze-drying is an effective means of storing platelets. In this study, we investigated the effects of a protective agent on freeze-dried platelet-rich plasma (FD-PRP) after a 12-week preservation period. Platelet structure was measured by transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and the expression levels of procaspase activating compound (PAC)-1 and CD62P were measured by flow cytometry. The levels of transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-β), platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) were determined by ELISA. The effect of FD-PRP on cell proliferation was measured by cell counting. TEM revealed that most platelets were intact, and their internal structure was evident. The expression levels of the platelet activation marker CD62P in FD-PRP and fresh PRP were 36.83% ± 8.21 and 35.47% ± 4.11, respectively, without a significant difference (P > 0.05). The expression levels of PAC-1 in FD-PRP and fresh PRP were 3.23% ± 0.49 and 2.83% ± 0.44, respectively, without a significant difference (P > 0.05). Upon activation of FD-PRP and fresh PRP by thrombin, the levels of TGF-β, PDGF and VEGF were not significantly decreased in FD-PRP. Moreover, FD-PRP promoted cell proliferation in a manner similar to that of fresh PRP. The protective agent maintained the biological activity of FD-PRP after a 12-week preservation period.

Abstract
Background Intrauterine adhesion (IUA) is a major cause of female secondary infertility. We previously demonstrated that menstrual blood-derived stromal cell (MenSC) transplantation helped severe IUA patients have pregnancy and endometrium regeneration. We also initiated platelet-rich plasma (PRP) acted as a beneficial supplement in MenSC culturing and a potential endometrial receptivity regulator. Here, we investigated the therapeutic effect of combined transplantation of MenSCs with PRP in rat IUA models and the mechanisms of MenSCs in endometrium regeneration. Methods Rat IUA models were established by intrauterine mechanical injured. Nine days later, all rats were randomly assigned to four groups received different treatment: placebo, MenSC transplantation, PRP transplantation, and MenSCs + PRP transplantation. The traces of MenSCs were tracked with GFP label. Endometrial morphology and pathology, tissue proliferation, inflammation, pregnancy outcomes, and mechanism of MenSCs in the regeneration of endometrium were investigated. Results Notably, at days 9 and 18 post-treatment, MenSC transplantation significantly improved endometrial proliferation, angiogenesis, and morphology recovery and decreased collagen fibrosis and inflammation in the uterus. MenSCs had lesion chemotaxis, colonized around the endometrial glands. Gene expression of human-derived secretory protein IGF-1, SDF-1, and TSP-1 was detected in the uterus received MenSCs at day 18. The three treatments can all improve fertility in IUA rats. Moreover, gene expressions of cell proliferation, developmental processes, and other biological processes were induced in MenSC transplantation group. Hippo signaling pathway was the most significantly changed pathway, and the downstream factors CTGF, Wnt5a, and Gdf5 were significantly regulated in treatment groups. PRP enhanced these parameters through a synergistic effect. Conclusions In summary, MenSCs could effectively improve uterine proliferation, markedly accelerate endometrial damage repairment and promote fertility restoration in IUA rats, suggesting a paracrine restorative effect and Hippo signaling pathway stimulation. Our results indicate MenSCs, a valuable source of cells for transplantation in the treatment intrauterine adhesion. Combined with PRP, this cell therapy was more effective.

Abstract
Exciting developments in the cell therapy field over the last decades have led to an increasing number of clinical trials and the first cell products receiving marketing authorization. In spite of substantial progress in the field, manufacturing of cell-based therapies presents multiple challenges that need to be addressed in order to assure the development of safe, efficacious, and cost-effective cell therapies.The manufacturing process of cell-based therapies generally requires tissue collection, cell isolation, culture and expansion (upstream processing), cell harvest, separation and purification (downstream processing), and, finally, product formulation and storage. Each one of these stages presents significant challenges that have been the focus of study over the years, leading to innovative and groundbreaking technological advances, as discussed throughout this chapter.Delivery of cell-based therapies relies on defining product targets while controlling process variable impact on cellular features. Moreover, commercial viability is a critical issue that has had damaging consequences for some therapies. Implementation of cost-effectiveness measures facilitates healthy process development, potentially being able to influence end product pricing.Although cell-based therapies represent a new level in bioprocessing complexity in every manufacturing stage, they also show unprecedented levels of therapeutic potential, already radically changing the landscape of medical care.

Abstract
Fat grafting is becoming a common procedure in regenerative medicine because of its high content of growth factors and adipose derived stem cells (ADSCs) and the ease of harvest, safety, and low cost. The high concentration of ADSCs found in fat has the potential to differentiate into a wide range of wound-healing cells including fibroblasts and keratinocytes as well as demonstrating proangiogenic qualities. This suggests that fat could play an important role in wound healing. However retention rates of fat grafts are highly variable due in part to inconsistent vascularisation of the transplanted fat. Furthermore, conditions such as diabetes, which have a high prevalence of chronic wounds, reduce the potency and regenerative potential of ADSCs. Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) is an autologous blood product rich in growth factors, cell adhesion molecules, and cytokines. It has been hypothesised that PRP may have a positive effect on the survival and retention of fat grafts because of improved proliferation and differentiations of ADSCs, reduced inflammation, and improved vascularisation. There is also increasing interest in a possible synergistic effect that PRP may have on the healing potential of fat, although the evidence for this is very limited. In this review, we evaluate the evidence in both in vitro and animal studies on the mechanistic relationship between fat and PRP and how this translates to a benefit in wound healing. We also discuss future directions for both research and clinical practice on how to enhance the regenerative potential of the combination of PRP and fat.

Abstract
The purpose of this study was to characterize rat adipose-derived stem cells,
induce adipose-derived stem cell tenogenesis, and analyze adipose-derived stem
cell effects on tendon repair in vivo. Adipose-derived stem cells demonstrated
an immunomodulatory, pro-angiogenic, and pro-proliferatory profile in vitro.
Tenogenesis was induced for 1, 7, 14, and 21 days with 24 combinations of growth
differentiation factor-5, 6, and 7 and platelet-derived growth factor–BB.
Adipose-derived stem cells expression of scleraxis and collagen type I increased
the most after 14 days of induction with growth differentiation factor-6 and
platelet-derived growth factor–BB. Achilles excision defects injected with
hydrogel alone (Gp2), with undifferentiated (Gp3) adipose-derived stem cells, or
tenogenically differentiated (Gp4) adipose-derived stem cells exhibited improved
tissue repair compared with untreated tendons (Gp1). Addition of adipose-derived
stem cells improved tissue cytoarchitecture and increased expression of collagen
type I and III, scleraxis, and tenomodulin. Adipose-derived stem cells
significantly improved biomechanical properties (ultimate load and elastic
toughness) over time more than hydrogel alone, while tenogenically
differentiated adipose-derived stem cells improved the mean histological score
and collagen fiber dispersion range closest to normal tendon. In addition,
tendon sections treated with GFP-adipose-derived stem cells exhibited green
fluorescence and positive GFP immunostaining on microscopy confirming the in
vivo survival of adipose-derived stem cells that were injected into tendon
defects to support the effects of adipose-derived stem cells on tissue up to
4.5 weeks post injury.

Abstract
Joint conditions incapacitate free movement driving to a sedentary lifestyle, a major risk factor for chronic diseases. Regenerative procedures, involving the use of mesenchymal stem/stromal cells along with platelet-rich plasma (PRP), can help patients with these conditions. We describe the main characteristics of cellular products (bone marrow concentrate, stromal vascular fraction of adipose tissue, and mesenchymal stem/stromal cells derived from these tissues), and the potential benefits of combination with PRP in 3 scenarios: PRP lysates used during laboratory cell expansion; PRP to prime cellular products or the host tissue before cell implantation; PRP used as a vehicle for cell transplantation and to provide trophic signals. Clinical studies exploring the benefits of combination products are limited to case series and few controlled studies, involving either arthroscopy or percutaneous injections. Combination products are making their way to clinics but further experimental and clinical research is needed to establish protocols and indications.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Platelet-rich Plasma (PRP) is suggested as xenoprotein-free cell-culture medium replacement for animal-derived supplements. OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to investigate PRP-triggered signaling in adipose derived mesenchymal stem cells (ASCs). METHODS PRP was obtained from 4 male patients. We incubated ASCs in α-MEM with different Platelet derived growth factor (PDGF) subtypes or 10% or 20% pooled PRP or 20% fetal calf serum (FCS) prior to determination of the S-phase fraction (SPF). To investigate the influence of PDGF signaling on ASCs, PDGF receptor β inhibitor was added, and protein expression of ASCs was measured. RESULTS ASCs exposed to 20% PRP, PDGF-AB and - BB demonstrated significant higher SPF in comparison to PDGF-AA and 20% FCS after 48 hours (all P < 0.05). PDGF receptor β inhibition diminished the PRP-induced SPF increase of ASCs significantly after 48 hours (P < 0.01). ASCs with PDGF receptor β inhibition showed significant higher PDGF receptor β and significant lower c-MYC expression compared to untreated cells in presence of 20% PRP after 48 hours (both P < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS The proliferation promoting effect of PRP on ASCs is mediated by PDGF signaling and is associated with c-MYC overexpression.

The corneal epitheliotrophic abilities of lyophilized powder form human platelet lysates. PLoS One 2018; 13:e0194345. [PMID: 29547658 PMCID: PMC5856377 DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0194345] [Citation(s) in RCA: 16] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/01/2017] [Accepted: 03/01/2018] [Indexed: 12/20/2022] Open
Abstract
Purpose To evaluate whether lyophilized human platelet lysate (HPL) powder can preserve the growth factor concentrations and epitheliotrophic properties of liquid HPL, and potentially be used as a clinically-friendly treatment option. Methods Two commercialized liquid HPLs, UltraGRO TM (Helios, Atlanta, GA) and PLTMax (Mill Creek, Rochester, MI), were obtained and converted to lyophilized powder. After redissolution, lyophilized powder HPLs were compared with liquid HPLs, as well as human peripheral serum (HPS) and fetal bovine serum (FBS) in liquid or redissolved lyophilized powder forms. Concentrations of epidermal growth factor (EGF), transforming growth factor-β1 (TGF-β1), platelet-derived growth factor-AB (PDGF-AB) and platelet-derived growth factor-BB (PDGF-BB) were evaluated by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Human corneal epithelial cell line was incubated with the blood derivatives and evaluated for cell migration with scratch-induced directional wounding and proliferation with MTS assays. Cell differentiation was examined by transepithelial electrical resistance (TEER). Fluorescein staining and in vivo confocal microscopy were used to evaluate in vivo corneal epithelial wound healing in Sprague-Dawley rats that underwent corneal debridement and topical application of liquid and redissolved powder HPLs. Results Liquid form and redissolved lyophilized powder form HPLs had similar concentrations of EGF, TGF-β1, PDGF-AB and PDGF-BB. In vitro experiments on cell migration, proliferation and differentiation and rat models on wound healing demonstrated no significant difference between the liquid and redissolved lyophilized powder forms for HPLs, HPS and FBS. In vivo confocal microscopy revealed similar wound healing process at different layers of cornea after corneal epithelial debridement between liquid form and redissolved lyophilized power form of HPLs. Conclusions The redissolved lyophilized powder form of both commercialized HPLs showed similar growth factor concentrations and corneal epitheliotrophic abilities compared to the liquid form. Results suggest that the properties of liquid HPLs can be retained despite lyophilization and that lyophilized HPLs can be a treatment option for corneal epithelial disorders.

Abstract
Background Human menstrual blood-derived stromal cells (MenSCs) are highly proliferative and show multiple differentiation capacity. The convenience and non-invasiveness make MenSC a novel cell source for regenerative medicine applications. Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) contains abundant growth factors which are beneficial to wound healing. However, the influence of PRP on MenSCs remains elusive. Here, we evaluated the role of PRP in MenSCs proliferation and assessed the effects of PRP on endometrial receptivity regulation in vitro. Methods MenSCs cultured with 10% activated PRP were compared with those cultured with 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS). Differences in cell proliferation, differentiation, and endometrial receptivity-related gene expression were evaluated. Results Notably, 10% activated PRP significantly promoted MenSCs proliferation and adipogenic/osteogenic differentiation while suppressing apoptosis. Expression of the mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) marker CD105 and the perivascular markers SUSD2 and CD146 were elevated after PRP treatment. Moreover, short-term PRP stimulation activated the phosphorylation of Akt and signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3) pathways, upregulated expression of FoxO1, LIF, and IL1-β, and downregulated IL-6. Conclusions In summary, PRP could promote MenSC proliferation, markedly accelerate cell stemness, and evaluate MenSC functions by enhancing the expression of angiogenesis and endometrial receptivity markers, suggesting its potential use as a promising supplement for MenSCs in endometrial regenerative medicine. Our results provide a theoretical basis for the clinical application of co-transplantation of PRP combined with MenSCs.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Adipose-derived stem cells (ASCs) are a powerful tool for cosmetic surgery and regenerative medicine. The use of autologous platelet rich plasma (PRP), particularly in combination with ASC-based therapy, has significantly expanded in recent years. Unfortunately, the mechanisms and optimal dosing responsible for the beneficial effects of PRP remain poorly understood. Here we investigate the effect of PRP on ASC growth and differentiation. OBJECTIVES To assess the impact of different PRP feeding and cryopreservation protocols on ASC isolation, expansion, and differentiation. METHODS Human PRP was isolated using the Magellan System (Arteriocyte). Fresh PRP (fPRP), flash frozen PRP (ffPRP), and cryopreserved PRP (cPRP) were added to human ASCs isolated from healthy patients. A panel of PRP supplementation protocols was analyzed for ASC adherence, proliferation, and osteogenesis. RESULTS The fresh and cryopreserved PRP groups demonstrated reduced cell adherence compared to control (non-PRP) groups (P < 0.001), while the flash frozen PRP groups showed cell adherence equivalent to or better than controls. After 7 days of growth, ASC populations for fPRP and ffPRP Single Administration protocols were significantly higher than other feeding protocols and controls. This benefit was lost in cPRP groups. Optimized ffPRP protocols showed potential for spontaneous osteogenesis. CONCLUSIONS Addition of ffPRP improves initial ASC adherence while a single administration of either fresh or flash frozen PRP without additional cell manipulation significantly augments subsequent ASC proliferation. The potential for spontaneous osteogenic differentiation upon PRP exposure invokes the need for additional molecular studies of PRP activity prior to further expansion to clinical applications.
