Abstract
Bone healing is a multifarious process involving mesenchymal stem cells, osteoprogenitor cells, macrophages, osteoblasts and -clasts, and chondrocytes to restore the osseous tissue. Particularly in long bones including the tibia, clavicle, humerus and femur, this process fails in 2-10% of all fractures, with devastating effects for the patient and the healthcare system. Underlying reasons for this failure are manifold, from lack of biomechanical stability to impaired biological host conditions and wound-immanent intricacies. In this review, we describe the cellular components involved in impaired bone healing and how they interfere with the delicately orchestrated processes of bone repair and formation. We subsequently outline and weigh the risk factors for the development of non-unions that have been established in the literature. Therapeutic prospects are illustrated and put into clinical perspective, before the applicability of biomarkers is finally discussed.

Abstract
Despite recent developments in the treatments for ischemic stroke, such as tissue plasminogen activator (t-PA) and thrombectomy, effective therapies for intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) remain scarce. Stem cell therapies have attracted considerable attention owing to their potential neuro-regenerative ability; preclinical and clinical studies have been conducted to explore strategies for achieving functional recovery following ICH. In this review, we summarize the findings of preclinical studies on stem cell therapies of ICH, with a focus on different animal models, stem cell sources, transplantation methods, and their potential mechanisms of action. We also provide an overview of data from clinical trials to discuss the current status and future perspectives. Understanding the effectiveness and limitations of stem cell therapy and the future prospects could expand the applications of this novel therapeutic approach for ICH.

Abstract
There is a "goldilocks" aspect to potency assays. On the one hand, a comprehensive evaluation of the cell product with detailed quantitative measurement of the critical quality attribute/s of the desired biological activity is required. On the other hand, the potency assay benefits from simplification and lean approaches that avoid unnecessary complication and enhance robustness, to provide a reproducible and scalable product. There is a need to balance insightful knowledge of complex biological healing processes with straightforward manufacture of an advanced therapeutic medicinal product (ATMP) that can be administered in a trustworthy cost-effective manner. While earlier chapters within this book have highlighted numerous challenges facing the potency assay conundrum, this chapter offers a forward-looking perspective regarding the many recent advances concerning acellular products, cryopreservation, induced MSC, cell priming, nanotechnology, 3D culture, regulatory guidelines and evolving institutional roles, that are likely to facilitate potency assay development in the future.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is an infectious respiratory disease prevalent worldwide with a high mortality rate, and there is currently no specific medicine to treat patients. OBJECTIVE We aimed to assess the safety and efficacy of stem cell therapy for COVID-19 by providing references for subsequent clinical treatments and trials. METHOD We systematically searched PubMed, Embase, Cochrane, and Web of Science, using the following keywords: "stem cell" or "stromal cell" and "COVID-19." Controlled clinical trials published in English until 24th August 2021 were included. We followed the PRISMA guidelines and used Cochrane Collaboration's tool for assessing the risk of bias. We analysed the data using a fixed-effect model. RESULTS We identified 1779 studies, out of which eight were eligible and included in this study. Eight relevant studies consisted of 156 patients treated with stem cells and 144 controls (300 individuals in total). There were no SAEs associated with stem cell therapy in all six studies, and no significant differences in AEs (p = 0.09, I2 = 40%, OR = 0.53, 95% CI: 0.26 to 1.09) between the experimental group and control group were observed. Moreover, the meta-analysis found that stem cell therapy effectively reduced the high mortality rate of COVID-19 (14/156 vs. 43/144; p<0.0001, I2 = 0%, OR=0.18, 95% CI: 0.08 to 0.41). CONCLUSION This study suggests that MSCs therapy for COVID-19 has shown some promising results in safety and efficacy. It effectively reduces the high mortality rate of COVID-19 and does not increase the incidence of adverse events.

Abstract
Aging is associated with a decline in the regenerative potential of stem cells. In recent years, several clinical trials have been launched in order to evaluate the efficacy of mesenchymal stem cell interventions to slow or reverse normal aging processes (aging conditions). Information concerning those clinical trials was extracted from national and international databases (United States, EU, China, Japan, and World Health Organization). Mesenchymal stem cell preparations were in development for two main aging conditions: physical frailty and facial skin aging. With regard to physical frailty, positive results have been obtained in phase II studies with intravenous Lomecel-B (an allogeneic bone marrow stem cell preparation), and a phase I/II study with an allogeneic preparation of umbilical cord-derived stem cells was recently completed. With regard to facial skin aging, positive results have been obtained with an autologous preparation of adipose-derived stem cells. A further sixteen clinical trials for physical frailty and facial skin aging are currently underway. Reducing physical frailty with intravenous mesenchymal stem cell administration can increase healthy life expectancy and decrease costs to the public health system. However, intravenous administration runs the risk of entrapment of the stem cells in the lungs (and could raise safety concerns). In addition to aesthetic purposes, clinical research on facial skin aging allows direct evaluation of tissue regeneration using sophisticated and precise methods. Therefore, research on both conditions is complementary, which facilitates a global vision.

Abstract
Mesenchymal/medicinal stem/signaling cells (MSCs), well known for regenerative potential, have been involved in hundreds of clinical trials. Even if equipped with reparative properties, aging significantly decreases their biological activity, representing a major challenge for MSC-based therapies. Age-related joint diseases, such as osteoarthritis, are associated with the accumulation of senescent cells, including synovial MSCs. An impaired ability of MSCs to self-renew and differentiate is one of the main contributors to the human aging process. Moreover, senescent MSCs (sMSCs) are characterized by the senescence-messaging secretome (SMS), which is typically manifested by the release of molecules with an adverse effect. Many factors, from genetic and metabolic pathways to environmental stressors, participate in the regulation of the senescent phenotype of MSCs. To better understand cellular senescence in MSCs, this review discusses the characteristics of sMSCs, their role in cartilage and synovial joint aging, and current rejuvenation approaches to delay/reverse age-related pathological changes, providing evidence from in vivo experiments as well.

Abstract
We reviewed and summarized the latest reports on the characteristics of stem cells and follicular cells that are under development for hair loss treatment. Compared with conventional medicine, cell therapy could be effective in the long term with a single treatment while having mild adverse effects. Adipose-derived stem cells (ASCs) have the advantages of easy access and large isolation amount compared with dermal papilla cells (DPCs) and dermal sheath cup cells (DSCs), and promote hair growth through the paracrine effect. ASCs have a poor potential in hair neogenesis, therefore, methods to enhance trichogenecity of ASCs should be developed. DSCs can be isolated from the peribulbar dermal sheath cup, while having immune tolerance, and hair inductivity. Therefore, DSCs were first developed and finished the phase II clinical trial; however, the hair growth was not satisfactory. Considering that a single injection of DSCs is effective for at least 9 months in the clinical setting, they can be an alternative therapy for hair regeneration. Though DPCs are not yet studied in clinical trials, we should pay attention to DPCs, as hair loss is associated with gradual reduction of DPCs and DP cell numbers fluctuate over the hair cycle. DPCs could make new hair follicles with epidermal cells, and have an immunomodulatory function to enable allogeneic transplantation. In addition, we can expand large quantities of DPCs with hair inductivity using spheroid culture, hypoxia condition, and growth factor supplement. 'Off-the-shelf' DPC therapy could be effective and economical, and therefore promising for hair regeneration.

Abstract
A meta-analysis was performed to evaluate the effect of stem cells treatment in managing burn wounds. A systematic literature search up to March 2022 incorporated 24 studies reported between 2013 and 2021 including 400 animals with burn wounds at the beginning of the study; 211 were using stem cells treatment, and 189 controlled. Statistical tools like the contentious method were used within a random or fixed-influence model to establish the mean difference (MD) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) to evaluate the influence of stem cells treatment in managing burn wounds. Stem cells treatment had a significantly higher burn wound healing rate (MD, 15.18; 95% CI, 11.29-19.07, P < .001), higher blood vessel number (MD, 12.28; 95% CI, 10.06-14.51, P < .001), higher vascular endothelial growth factor (MD, 10.24; 95% CI, 7.19-13.29, P < .001), lower interleukin-1 level (MD, -98.48; 95% CI, -155.33 to -41.63, P < .001), and lower tumour necrosis factor α level (MD, -28.71; 95% CI, -46.65 to -10.76, P < .002) compared with control in animals' models with burn wounds. Stem cells treatment had a significantly higher burn wound healing rate, higher blood vessel number, higher vascular endothelial growth factor, lower interleukin-1 level, and lower tumour necrosis factor α level compared with control in animals' models with burn wounds. Further studies are required to validate these findings.

Abstract
Adherent cell cultures are often dissociated from their culture vessel (and each other) through enzymatic harvesting, where the detachment response is monitored by an operator. However, this approach is lacking standardisation and reproducibility, and prolonged exposure or too high concentrations can affect the cell's viability and differentiation potential. Quantitative monitoring systems are required to characterise the cell detachment response and objectively determine the optimal time-point to inhibit the enzymatic reaction. State-of-the-art methodologies rely on bulky imaging systems and/or features (e.g. circularity) that lack robustness. In this study, lens-free imaging (LFI) technology was used to develop a novel cell detachment feature. Seven different donors were cultured and subsequently harvested with a (diluted) enzymatic harvesting solution after 3, 5 and 7 days of culture. Cell detachment was captured with the LFI set-up over a period of 20 min (every 20 s) and by optimising the reconstruction of the LFI intensity images, a new feature could be identified. Bright regions in the intensity image were identified as detaching cells and using image analysis, a method was developed to automatically extract this feature, defined as the percentage of detached cell regions. Next, the method was quantitatively and qualitatively validated on a diverse set of images. Average absolute error values of 1.49%, 1.34% and 1.97% were obtained for medium to high density and overconfluent cultures, respectively. The detachment response was quantified for all conditions and the optimal time for enzyme inhibition was reached when approximately 92.5% of the cells were detached. On average, inhibition times of 9.6-11.1 and 16.2-17.2 min were obtained for medium to high density and overconfluent cultures, respectively. In general, overconfluent cultures detached much slower, while their detachment rate was also decreased by the diluted harvesting solution. Moreover, several donors exhibited similar trends in cell detachment behaviour, with two clear outliers. Using the novel feature, measurements can be performed with an increased robustness, while the compact LFI design could pave the way for in situ monitoring in a variety of culture vessels, including bioreactors.

Abstract
AbstractAndrogenic alopecia (AGA) is a common condition associated with loss of terminal hair on the scalp in a specific pattern in both males and females. Management of AGA is usually challenging as the approved therapeutic options are limited. Our aim was to evaluate the efficacy of non-enzymatic stromal vascular fraction (SVF) as a new promising treatment for AGA. From April to December 2021, this prospective study included 30 patients with AGA who were enrolled from the University Hospitals' dermatology outpatient clinics. Patients received a single session of autologous SVF injection and were then followed up for 6 months. There was an increase in hair shaft caliber from 0.037 ± 0.01 mm before treatment with SVF to 0.056 ± 0.02 mm after 6 months of treatment. Also, hair count/cm2 increased from 130.87 ± 14/cm2 to 151.93 ± 22.36/cm2 and terminal to vellus hair ratio increased from 77.06 ± 10.47% to 81.45 ± 11.98% at the end of the study. No significant difference was recorded between male and female groups as regard response to treatment. We concluded that SVF is an effective line of treatment for AGA with significant improvement regarding hair density, hair diameter, global photography, and patient satisfaction.

Abstract
BACKGROUND For decades, facial fat grafting has been used in clinical practice for volume restoration. The main challenge of this technique is variable volume retention. The addition of supplements to augment fat grafts and increase volume retention has been reported in recent years. OBJECTIVES The aim of this systematic review was to investigate which supplements increase volume retention in facial fat grafting as assessed by volumetric outcomes and patient satisfaction. METHODS Embase, Medline, Ovid, Web of Science Core Collection, Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, and Google Scholar were searched up to November 30, 2020. Only studies assessing volume after facial fat grafting with supplementation in human subjects were included. Outcomes of interest were volume or patient satisfaction. The quality of the studies was assessed with the Effective Public Health Practice Project tool. RESULTS After duplicates were removed 3724 studies were screened by title and abstract. After reading 95 full-text articles, 27 studies were eligible and included for comparison. Supplementation comprised of platelet-rich plasma, platelet-rich fibrin, adipose tissue-derived stromal cells or bone marrow-derived stromal cells, cellular or tissue stromal vascular fraction, or nanofat. In 13 out of 22 studies the supplemented group showed improved volumetric retention and 5 out of 16 studies showed greater satisfaction. The scientific quality of the studies was rated as weak for 20 of 27 studies, moderate for 6 of 27 studies, and strong for 1 study. CONCLUSIONS It remains unclear if additives contribute to facial fat graft retention and there is a need to standardize methodology. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: 4

Abstract
Adipose tissue-derived stromal cells (ASCs) play an important role in various therapeutic approaches to bone regeneration. However, such applications become challenging when the obtained cells show a functional disorder, e.g., an impaired osteogenic differentiation potential (ODP). In addition to ASCs, human adipose tissue is also a source for another cell type with therapeutic potential, the dedifferentiated fat cells (DFATs), which can be obtained from mature adipocytes. Here, we for the first time compared the ODPs of each donors ASC and DFAT obtained from the same adipose tissue sample as well as the role of oxidative stress or antioxidative catalase on their osteogenic outcome. Osteogenic potential of ASC and DFAT from nine human donors were compared in vitro. Flow cytometry, staining for calcium accumulation with alizarin red, alkaline phosphatase assay and Western blots were used over an osteogenic induction period of up to 14 days. H2O2 was used to induce oxidative stress and catalase was used as an antioxidative measure. We have found that ASC and DFAT cultures' ODPs are nearly identical. If ASCs from an adipose tissue sample showed good or bad ODP, so did the corresponding DFAT cultures. The inter-individual variability of the donor ODPs was immense with a maximum factor of about 20 and correlated neither with the age nor the sex of the donors of the adipose tissue. Oxidative stress in the form of exogenously added H2O2 led to a significant ODP decrease in both cell types, with this ODP decrease being significantly lower in DFAT cultures than in the corresponding ASC cultures. Regardless of the individual cell culture-specific ODP, however, exogenously applied catalase led to an approx. 2.5-fold increase in osteogenesis in the ASC and DFAT cultures. Catalase appears to be a potent pro-osteogenic factor, at least in vitro. A new finding that points to innovative strategies and therapeutic approaches in bone regeneration. Furthermore, our results show that DFATs behave similarly to ASCs of the same adipose tissue sample with respect to ODPs and could therefore be a very attractive and readily available source of multipotent stem cells in bone regenerative therapies.

Human Mesenchymal Stem Cells Derived from the Placenta and Chorion Suppress the Proliferation while Enhancing the Migration of Human Breast Cancer Cells. Stem Cells Int 2022; 2022:4020845.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Breast cancer is the most frequently diagnosed malignancy among women, resulting from abnormal proliferation of mammary epithelial cells. The highly vascularized nature of breast tissue leads to a high incidence of breast cancer metastases, resulting in a poor survival rate. Previous studies suggest that human mesenchymal stem cells (hMSCs) play essential roles in the growth, metastasis, and drug responses of many cancers, including breast cancer. However, hMSCs from different sources may release different combinations of cytokines that affect breast cancer differently. METHODS In this study, we have isolated hMSCs from the placenta (PL-hMSCs) and the chorion (CH-hMSCs) and determined how these hMSCs affect the proliferation, migration, invasion, and gene expression of two human breast cancer cells, MCF-7 and MDA-MB-231, as well as the possible mechanisms underlying those effects. RESULTS The results showed that the soluble factors derived from PL-hMSCs and CH-hMSCs inhibited the proliferation of MCF-7 and MDA-MB-231 cells but increased the migration of MDA-MB-231 cells. The study of gene expression showed that PL-hMSCs and CH-hMSCs downregulated the expression levels of the protooncogene CyclinD1 while upregulating the expression levels of tumor suppressor genes, P16 and P21 in MCF-7 and MDA-MB-231 cells. Furthermore, hMSCs from both sources also increased the expression levels of MYC, SNAI1, and TWIST, which promote the epithelial-mesenchymal transition and migration of breast cancer cells in both cell lines. The functional study suggests that the suppressive effect of CH-hMSCs and PL-hMSCs on MCF-7 and MDA-MB231 cell proliferation was mediated, at least in part, through IFN-γ. CONCLUSIONS Our study suggests that CH-hMSCs and PL-hMSCs inhibited breast cancer cell proliferation by negatively regulating CYCLIND1 expression and upregulating the expression of the P16 and P21 genes. In contrast, hMSCs from both sources enhanced breast cancer cell migration, possibly by increasing the expression of MYC, SNAI1, and TWIST genes in those cells.

Abstract
Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are attractive in various fields of regenerative medicine due to their therapeutic potential and complex unique properties. Basic stem cell research and the global COVID-19 pandemic have given impetus to the development of cell therapy for infectious diseases. The aim of this review was to systematize scientific data on the applications of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) and MSC-derived extracellular vesicles (MSC-EVs) in the combined treatment of infectious diseases. Application of MSCs and MSC-EVs in the treatment of infectious diseases has immunomodulatory, anti-inflammatory, and antibacterial effects, and also promotes the restoration of the epithelium and stimulates tissue regeneration. The use of MSC-EVs is a promising cell-free treatment strategy that allows solving the problems associated with the safety of cell therapy and increasing its effectiveness. In this review, experimental data and clinical trials based on MSCs and MSC-EVs for the treatment of infectious diseases are presented. MSCs and MSC-EVs can be a promising tool for the treatment of various infectious diseases, particularly in combination with antiviral drugs. Employment of MSC-derived EVs represents a more promising strategy for cell-free treatment, demonstrating a high therapeutic potential in preclinical studies.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Bone marrow (BM)- and adipose tissue (AT)-derived mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) have shown potential as cell-based therapies for cartilage and bone injuries and are used increasingly in human and veterinary practice to facilitate the treatment of orthopedic conditions. However, human and rodent studies have documented a sharp decline in chondrogenic and osteogenic differentiation potential with increasing donor age, which may be problematic for the important demographic of older orthopedic patients. The aim of this study was to identify the effect of donor age on the chondrogenic and osteogenic differentiation performance of equine BM- and AT-MSCs in vitro. BM- and AT-MSCs and dermal fibroblasts (biological negative control) were harvested from horses in five different age groups (n = 4, N = 60); newborn (0 days), yearling (15-17 months), adult (5-8 years), middle-aged (12-18 years), and geriatric (≥ 22 years). Chondrogenic differentiation performance was assessed quantitatively by measuring pellet size, matrix proteoglycan levels, and gene expression of articular cartilage biomarkers. Osteogenic differentiation performance was assessed quantitatively by measuring alkaline phosphatase activity, calcium deposition, and gene expression of bone biomarkers. RESULTS Chondrogenic and osteogenic differentiation performance of equine BM- and AT-MSCs declined with increasing donor age. BM-MSCs had a higher chondrogenic differentiation performance. AT-MSCs showed minimal chondrogenic differentiation performance in all age groups. For osteogenesis, alkaline phosphatase activity was also higher in BM-MSCs, but BM-MSCs calcium deposition was affected by donor age earlier than AT-MSCs. Chondrogenic and osteogenic differentiation performance of BM-MSCs exhibited a decline as early as between the newborn and yearling samples. Steady state levels of mRNA encoding growth factors, chondrogenic, and osteogenic biomarkers were lower with increasing donor age in both MSC types. CONCLUSIONS The data showed that chondrogenic and osteogenic differentiation performance of equine BM-MSCs declined already in yearlings, and that AT-MSCs showed minimal chondrogenic potential, but were affected later by donor age with regards to osteogenesis (calcium deposition). The results highlight the importance of donor age considerations and MSC selection for cell-based treatment of orthopedic injuries and will help inform clinicians on when to implement or potentially cryopreserve cells. Moreover, the study provides molecular targets affected by donor age.

Abstract
Delay in wound healing is a diabetes mellites resulting disorder causing persistent microbial infections, pain, and poor quality of life. This disorder is treated by several strategies using natural biomaterials, growth factors and stem cells molded into various scaffolds which possess the potential to accelerate the closure of impaired diabetic wounds. In this study, we developed a hydrogel patch using chitosan (CS) and polyethylene glycol (PEG) with laden bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) that were pretreated with fibroblast growth factor 21 (FGF21). The developed hydrogel patches were characterized by scanning electron microscopy and fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy. After studying the swelling behavior, growth factor (FGF21) was used to modulate BMSC in the hyperglycemic environment. Later, FGF21 treated BMSC were embedded in CS/PEG hydrogel patch and their wound closure effect was assessed in diabetic rats. The results showed that CS/PEG hydrogel patches have good biocompatibility and possess efficient BMSC recruiting properties. The application of CS/PEG hydrogel patches accelerated wound closure in diabetic rats as compared to the control groups. However, the use of FGF21 pretreated BMSCs laded CS/PEG hydrogel patches further increased the therapeutic efficacy of wound closure in diabetic rats. This study demonstrated that the application of a hydrogel patch of CS/PEG with FGF21 pretreated BMSCs improves diabetic wound healing, but further studies are needed on larger animals before the use of these dressings in clinical trials.

Abstract
Few therapies can reverse the proangiogenic activity of senescent mesenchymal stromal/stem cells (MSCs). In this study, we investigated the effects of rapamycin on the proangiogenic ability of senescent human umbilical cord MSCs (UCMSCs). An in vitro replicative senescent cell model was established in cultured UCMSCs. We found that late passage (P25 or later) UCMSCs (LP-UCMSCs) exhibited impaired proangiogenic abilities. Treatment of P25 UCMSCs with rapamycin (900 nM) reversed the senescent phenotype and notably enhanced the proangiogenic activity of senescent UCMSCs. In a nude mouse model of hindlimb ischemia, intramuscular injection of rapamycin-treated P25 UCMSCs into the ischemic limb significantly promoted neovascularization and ischemic limb salvage. We further analyzed the changes in the expression of angiogenesis-associated genes in rapamycin-primed MSCs and found higher expression of several genes related to angiogenesis, such as VEGFR2 and CTGF/CCN2, in primed cells than in unprimed MSCs. Taken together, our data demonstrate that rapamycin is a potential drug to restore the proangiogenic activity of senescent MSCs, which is of importance in treating ischemic diseases and tissue engineering.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Female Pattern Hair Loss (FPHL) is one of the most common types of hair loss in women. It is characterized by progressive follicular miniaturization leading to diffuse hair thinning over the midfrontal scalp with a negative impact on quality of life. Pharmacological treatments are commonly used, and hair follicle transplantation is an option for those cases with adequate donor area. Minimally invasive procedures, such as microneedling, mesotherapy, microinfusion of drugs into the scalp with tattoo machines (MMP®), and platelet-rich plasma (PRP) have been reported as adjuvant treatments. AIMS This study aims to summarize and discuss the efficacy of minimally invasive procedures described for the management of FPHL. METHODS Published articles indexed on the Pubmed database and Scopus that described minimally invasive procedures for the management of FPHL in humans were considered. Citations were reviewed and added for completeness. The search was for articles in English only. After excluding duplicate titles, 23 relevant articles were considered. CONCLUSION Minimally invasive procedures are promising options and may play a role in FPHL treatment. They can be used as adjunctive therapy for FPHL, in case of poor response to clinical therapy, or when patients prefer other care than the standard. We reinforce that these methods should be performed by an experienced medical professional following strict aseptic techniques. However, microneedling, mesotherapy, MMP, and PRP lack standardization and are supported by a low level of evidence yet. For the future, larger randomized clinical trials are essential to determine the efficacy and optimal protocols for these treatments.

Abstract
BACKGROUND In this study, we examined cellular responses to acute and chronic IRA irradiation at mild and natural levels of exposure in two types of human fibroblasts, each isolated from a different donor, at physiological temperature (34°C). METHOD Two types of human dermal fibroblasts (derived from a 20- and 50-year-old women, respectively) were exposed to different repeat numbers of IRA exposure (3, 6, 10, and 14 times; 42 mW/cm2 ) at a frequency of 3-4 times per week (4 h per irradiation). Cellular responses to acute and chronic IRA irradiation were examined by reactive oxygen species (ROS) level, apoptotic signals, cellular morphology, and collagen level. RESULTS We demonstrated that chronic IRA irradiation-induced severe cellular damage, including prolonged cell proliferation, increased intracellular ROS levels, activated cellular apoptosis, and elongated cell morphology, whereas acute IRA irradiation had negligible effects at 34°C. In addition, it was evident that the degree of cellular damage due to IRA irradiation differed according to the type of fibroblasts. CONCLUSIONS Considering the severe cellular damage induced by chronic IRA irradiation without heat, continuous exposure of skin to IRA irradiation during daily life may be harmful enough to induce photoaging.

Abstract
Adipose-derived stem cells comprise several clinically beneficial qualities that have been explored in basic research and have motivated several clinical studies with promising results. After being approved in the European Union, UK, Switzerland, Israel, and Japan, allogeneic adipose-derived stem cells (darvadstrocel) have been recently granted a regenerative medicine advanced therapy (RMAT) designation by US FDA for complex perianal fistulas in adults with Crohn's disease. This huge scientific step is likely to impact the future spread of the indications of allogeneic adipose-derived stem cell applications. The current knowledge on adipose stem cell harvest describes quantitative and qualitative differences that could be influenced by different donor conditions and donor sites. In this comprehensive review, we summarize the current knowledge on the topic and propose donor profiles that could provide the optimal initial quality of this living drug, as a starting point for further applications and studies in different pathological conditions.

Abstract
Human dental pulp stem cells (hDPSCs) are promising for oral/craniofacial regeneration, but their purification and characterization is not yet standardized. hDPSCs from three donors were purified by magnetic activated cell sorting (MACS)-assisted STRO-1-positive cell enrichment (+), colony derivation (c), or a combination of both (c/+). Immunophenotype, clonogenicity, stemness marker expression, senescence, and proliferation were analyzed. Multilineage differentiation was assessed by qPCR, immunohistochemistry, and extracellular matrix mineralization. To confirm the credibility of the results, repeated measures analysis and post hoc p-value adjustment were applied. All hDPSC fractions expressed STRO-1 and were similar for several surface markers, while their clonogenicity and expression of CD10/44/105/146, and 166 varied with the purification method. (+) cells proliferated significantly faster than (c/+), while (c) showed the highest increase in metabolic activity. Colony formation was most efficient in (+) cells, which also exhibited the lowest cellular senescence. All hDPSCs produced mineralized extracellular matrix. Regarding osteogenic induction, (c/+) revealed a significant increase in mRNA expression of COL5A1 and COL6A1, while osteogenic marker genes were detected at varying levels. (c/+) were the only population missing BDNF gene transcription increase during neurogenic induction. All hDPSCs were able to differentiate into chondrocytes. In summary, the three hDPSCs populations showed differences in phenotype, stemness, proliferation, and differentiation capacity. The data suggest that STRO-1-positive cell enrichment is the optimal choice for hDPSCs purification to maintain hDPSCs stemness. Furthermore, an (immuno) phenotypic characterization is the minimum requirement for quality control in hDPSCs studies.

Abstract
Adipose-derived Stem cells (ASCs) are on the verge of being available for large clinical trials in wound healing. However, for developing advanced therapy medicinal products (ATMPs), potency assays mimicking the mode of action are required to control the product consistency of the cells. Thus, greater effort should go into the design of product assays. Therefore, we analyzed three ASC-based ATMPs from three different donors with respect to their surface markers, tri-lineage differentiation, proliferation, colony-forming unit capacity, and effect on fibroblast proliferation and migration, endothelial proliferation, migration, and angiogenesis. Furthermore, the transcriptome of all three cell products was analyzed through RNA-sequencing. Even though all products met the criteria by the International Society for Cell and Gene Therapy and the International Federation for Adipose Therapeutics and Science, we found one product to be consistently superior to others when exploring their potency in the wound healing specific assays. Our results indicate that certain regulatory genes associated with extracellular matrix and angiogenesis could be used as markers of a superior ASC donor from which to use ASCs to treat chronic wounds. Having a panel of assays capable of predicting the potency of the product would ensure the patient receives the most potent product for a specific indication, which is paramount for successful patient treatment and acceptance from the healthcare system.

Abstract
Adipose tissue is characterized as an endocrine organ that acts as a source of hormones and paracrine factors. In diseases such as cancer, endocrine and paracrine signals from adipose tissue contribute to cancer progression. Young individuals with estrogen receptor-alpha positive (ER-α+) breast cancer (BC) have an increased resistance to endocrine therapies, suggesting that alternative estrogen signaling is activated within these cells. Despite this, the effects of stromal age on the endocrine response in BC are not well defined. To identify differences between young and aged ER-α+ breast tumors, RNA sequencing data were obtained from The Cancer Genome Atlas. Analysis revealed enrichment of matrix and paracrine factors in young (≤40 years old) patients compared to aged (≥65 years old) tumor samples. Adipose-derived stromal/stem cells (ASCs) from noncancerous lipoaspirate of young and aged donors were evaluated for alterations in matrix production and paracrine secreted factors to determine if the tumor stroma could alter estrogen signaling. Young and aged ASCs demonstrated comparable proliferation, differentiation, and matrix production, but exhibited differences in the expression levels of inflammatory cytokines (Interferon gamma, interleukin [IL]-8, IL-10, Tumor necrosis factor alpha, IL-2, and IL-6). Conditioned media (CM)-based experiments showed that young ASC donor age elevated endocrine response in ER-α+ BC cell lines. MCF-7 ER-α+ BC cell line treated with secreted factors from young ASCs had enhanced ER-α regulated genes (PGR and SDF-1) compared to MCF-7 cells treated with aged ASC CM. Western blot analysis demonstrated increased activation levels of p-ER ser-167 in the MCF-7 cell line treated with young ASC secreted factors. To determine if ER-α+ BC cells heightened the cytokine release in ASCs, ASCs were stimulated with MCF-7-derived CM. Results demonstrated no change in growth factors or cytokines when treated with the ER-α+ secretome. In contrast to ER-α+ CM, the ER-α negative MDA-MB-231 derived CM demonstrated increased stimulation of pro-inflammatory cytokines in ASCs. While there was no observed change in the release of selected paracrine factors, MCF-7 cells did induce matrix production and a pro-adipogenic lineage commitment. The adipogenesis was evident by increased collagen content through Sirius Red/Fast Green Collagen stain, lipid accumulation evident by Oil Red O stain, and significantly increased expression in PPARγ mRNA expression. The data from this study provide evidence suggesting more of a subtype-dependent than an age-dependent difference in stromal response to BC, suggesting that this signaling is not heightened by reciprocal signals from ER-α+ BC cell lines. These results are important in understanding the mechanisms of estrogen signaling and the dynamic and reciprocal nature of cancer cell-stromal cell crosstalk that can lead to tumor heterogeneity and variance in response to therapy.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To evaluate umbilical cord immune cells in pregnancies with autoimmune disorders (AID) and/or methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) polymorphisms. METHODS Umbilical cords were obtained from seven AID women without MTHFR polymorphisms, eight with AID and MTHFR polymorphisms, nine with MTHFR polymorphisms, and eight with neither. Umbilical cords were assessed immunohistologcally by anti-CD4, anti-CD8, anti-CD14, anti-CD19, anti-CD21, and anti-CD56 antibodies in six umbilical cord zones: 1) arterial wall 2) periarterial zone 3) venous wall 4) perivenous zone 5) intervascular zone, and 6) subamniotic zone. RESULTS AIDs and MTHFR polymorphisms had an effect on the number and composition of CD4+ cells in the venous wall. The presence of a MTHFR polymorphism may affect the number and morphology of CD4+ cells in the subamniotic zone. CD8+ cell distribution is substantially influenced by the presence of maternal risk factors. The co-existence of AID with MTHFR polymorphism has a prominent effect on the number and morphology of CD14+ cells, especially in the arterial wall. CD19+ cells were only observed in the control group in the venous wall, perivenous zone, and intervascular zone. CD21+ cells were only observed in the arterial wall of the control group and the intervascular zone of the AID group with different morphologic features. The number and morphology of CD56+ cells is prominently affected by the presence of maternal risk factors. CONCLUSIONS Umbilical cord stem cell and immune cell composition may be affected by the presence of risk factors like MTHFR polymorphisms and/or AID.

Abstract
Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) includes Crohn’s disease and ulcerative colitis and is an idiopathic, chronic inflammatory disease of the colonic mucosa. The occurrence of IBD, causes irreversible damage to the colon and increases the risk of carcinoma. The routine clinical treatment of IBD includes drug treatment, endoscopic treatment and surgery. The vast majority of patients are treated with drugs and biological agents, but the complete cure of IBD is difficult. Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) have become a new type of cell therapy for the treatment of IBD due to their immunomodulatory and nutritional functions, which have been confirmed in many clinical trials. This review discusses some potential mechanisms of MSCs in the treatment of IBD, summarizes the experimental results, and provides new insights to enhance the therapeutic effects of MSCs in future applications.

Abstract
Damaged hyaline cartilage gradually decreases joint function and growing pain significantly reduces the quality of a patient’s life. The clinically approved procedure of autologous chondrocyte implantation (ACI) for treating knee cartilage lesions has several limits, including the absence of healthy articular cartilage tissues for cell isolation and difficulties related to the chondrocyte expansion in vitro. Today, various ACI modifications are being developed using autologous chondrocytes from alternative sources, such as the auricles, nose and ribs. Adult stem cells from different tissues are also of great interest due to their less traumatic material extraction and their innate abilities of active proliferation and chondrogenic differentiation. According to the different adult stem cell types and their origin, various strategies have been proposed for stem cell expansion and initiation of their chondrogenic differentiation. The current review presents the diversity in developing applied techniques based on autologous adult stem cell differentiation to hyaline cartilage tissue and targeted to articular cartilage damage therapy.

Abstract
Background and Aim: Global warming has grave consequences on livestock production systems and profound negative effects on animal production. This study aimed to carry out an in vitro thermal stress stimulation (TSS) of bovine peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) using different thermal assault conditions (TACs), including normal to extreme temperatures and varying durations of thermal exposure (DTE) to understand how PBMCs of Indian Zebu–Jersey crossbreds respond to various levels and durations of heat shock. Materials and Methods: Ten milliliters of blood were collected from 70 Indian Zebu–Jersey crossbreds under aseptic conditions and were sampled for isolating PBMCs. Peripheral blood mononuclear cells were divided into seven groups, each comprising 10 PBMC samples isolated from 10 different animals. Aliquots of 500 μL of PBMCs were stressed by exposure to different TACs (37, 40, and 45°C) for DTEs of 3 or 6 h. Subsequently, the cells were harvested. The control unstressed samples (500 μL aliquots of PBMCs) were exposed to no TAC (0°C) and zero DTE (0 h). Total RNA from all the treatment groups of PBMCs were isolated and quantitated. Results: We found a very strong association between TACs and RNA levels. In addition, PBMCs viability was negatively affected by heat shock. This led to an exponential reduction in PBMC count as TACs toughened. Only 3.59 × 105 ± 0.34 cells/mL were viable after exposure to 45°C for a 6 h DTE. This cell viability was lower than that measured in controls subjected to no stress and zero time DTE (2.56 × 107 ± 0.22 cells/mL). We also observed a reduction in the concentration of RNA isolated from thermally stressed PBMCs. Conclusion: In vitro TSS of PBMCs provided biological information on the response of cellular systems to heat shock after exposure to TACs. This will help to mitigate and manage the effects of thermal stress in bovine species. The association between the reduction in PBMC count after in vitro TSS and the expression of heat shock protein 70 gene will be investigated in the future to further understand how Indian Zebu–Jersey crossbreds respond to in vitro thermal conditions. This will be used to determine the in vivo response of Indian Jersey crossbreds to different environmental thermal conditions and will further enable the in vivo understanding of thermotolerance potentials of bovine species for better adaptation, survival, and production performance.

Abstract
As aging becomes a global burden, the incidence of hip fracture (HF), which is the most common fracture in the elderly population and can be fatal, is rapidly increasing, and its extremely high fatality rate places significant medical and financial burdens on patients. Fractures trigger a complex set of immune responses, and recent studies have shown that with aging, the immune system shows decreased activity or malfunctions in a process known as immune senescence, leading to disease and death. These phenomena are the reasons why elderly individuals typically exhibit chronically low levels of inflammation and increased rates of infection and chronic disease. Macrophages, which are key players in the inflammatory response, are critical in initiating the inflammatory response, clearing pathogens, controlling the innate and adaptive immune responses and repairing damaged tissues. Tissue-resident macrophages (TRMs) are widely present in tissues and perform immune sentinel and homeostatic functions. TRMs are combinations of macrophages with different functions and phenotypes that can be directly influenced by neighboring cells and the microenvironment. They form a critical component of the first line of defense in all tissues of the body. Immune system disorders caused by aging could affect the biology of macrophages and thus the cascaded immune response after fracture in various ways. In this review, we outline recent studies and discuss the potential link between monocytes and macrophages and their potential roles in HF in elderly individuals.

Abstract
Idiopathic male infertility is a highly prevalent diagnosis in developed countries with no specific treatment options. Although empirical medical treatment is widely used to restore male fertility, its efficacy remains limited and inconclusively proven. Therefore, the development of novel therapeutic approaches in this field is a high-priority task. Since the failure of testicular microenvironment components might be involved in the pathogenesis of idiopathic male infertility, application of mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) as well as the MSC secretome is worth considering. Previously, we showed that the intratesticular injection of MSCs or the MSC secretome led to the recovery of spermatogenesis at least through replenishing the testicular microenvironment and its maintenance by MSC-secreted paracrine factors. However, the clinical use of such products has been limited to single trials to date. This may be due to the lack of relevant potency tests reflecting mechanisms of action of the MSC secretome in male infertility models. Based on the presumptive MSC secretome mode of action on the testicular microenvironment, we suggest a novel approach to test the potential efficacy of the MSC secretome for idiopathic male infertility treatment. It represents a potency assay based on evaluation of testosterone production by isolated Leydig cells. We demonstrated that the MSC secretome stimulated testosterone secretion by Leydig cells in vitro. We then hypothesized that among the major factors of the MSC secretome, vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) could be responsible for the observed effects, which we confirmed by the revealed correlation between the extent of stimulated testosterone production and VEGF concentration in the MSC secretome. The pilot results obtained from the doxorubicin-induced male infertility murine model also indicate the important impact of VEGF in the MSC secretome’s regenerative effects. Utilizing VEGF as a surrogate factor, a novel approach to study the potency of MSC secretome-based products for idiopathic male infertility treatment is suggested. Further validation is required for its implementation into the biopharmaceutical manufacturing process.

Abstract
Introduction: Autologous fat is ideal soft tissue filler. It is easily accessible, biocompatible, cheap, and it provides both volume augmentation and skin quality improvement. Fat grafting has been used since 1893, but it has only gained widespread popularity since the development of modern liposuction by Colemann and Illouz in the 1980s. Every year more than half a million facial fat grafting procedures are carried out worldwide and the trend is rapidly increasing. Overall, general complications associated with facial fat grafting are assumed to be around 2%. Is that true? Material and Methods: Until July 2021, a systematic search of the literature was performed interrogating PubMed search engines. The following algorithm was used for the research: (fat graft OR lipofilling) AND face AND complications. Exclusion criteria applied hierarchically were review articles, not reporting recipient site complications; not in English and paediatric population. Abstracts were manually screened by LS, GS, JM and PDS separately and subsequently matched for accuracy. Pertinent full-text articles were retrieved and analysed and data were extracted from the database. The flow chart of article selection is described following the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) statement. Results: In total, 462 papers were identified by PubMed search. A total of 359 were excluded: 38 papers were not in English, 41 were review articles, 279 articles did not report recipient site complications and 1 was not on human subjects. Average complication rate ranged from 1.5% to 81.4%. A total of 298 adverse events were identified: 40 (13.4%) intravascular injections, 13 (4.3%) asymmetry, 57 (19.1%) irregularities, 22 (7.4%) graft hypertrophy, 21 (7%) fat necrosis, 73 (24.5%) prolonged oedema, 1 (0.3%) infection, 6 (2%) prolonged erythema, 15 (5%) telangiectasia and 50 (16.8%) cases of acne activation. Conclusions: FFG related side effects could be resumed in three categories: severe, moderate, and minor. Severe (13.4%) side effects such as intravascular injection or migration require neurological or neurosurgical management and often lead to permanent disability or death. Moderate (38.3%) side effects such as fat hypertrophy, necrosis, cyst formation, irregularities and asymmetries require a retouch operation. Minor (48.3%) side effects such as prolonged oedema or erythema require no surgical management. Despite the fact that the overall general complication rate of facial fat grafting is assumed to be around 2%, the real complication rate of facial fat grafting is unknown due to a lack of reporting and the absence of consensus on side effect definition and identification. More RCTs are necessary to further determine the real complication rate of this procedure.

Abstract
Periprosthetic osteolysis is a major long-term complication of total joint replacement. A series of biological reactions caused by the interaction of wear particles at the prosthesis bone interface and surrounding bone tissue cells after artificial joint replacement are vital reasons for aseptic loosening. Disorder of bone metabolism and aseptic inflammation induced by wear particles are involved in the occurrence and development of aseptic loosening of the prosthesis. Promoting osteogenesis and angiogenesis and mediating osteoclasts and inflammation may be beneficial in preventing the aseptic loosening of the prosthesis. Current research about the prevention and treatment of aseptic loosening of the prosthesis focuses on drug, gene, and stem cell therapy and has not yet achieved satisfactory clinical efficacy or has not been used in clinical practice. Exosomes are a kind of typical extracellular vehicle. In recent years, stem cell exosomes (Exos) have been widely used to regulate bone metabolism, block inflammation, and have broad application prospects in tissue repair and cell therapy.

Abstract
During skin aging, the volume of subcutaneous adipose tissue (sWAT) and the adipogenesis potential of adipose-derived stem cells (ASCs) decrease. It is known that the shortening of cilia length by pro-inflammatory cytokines is related to the decreased adipogenic differentiation of ASCs via increase in Wnt5a/β-catenin. High-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) is known to upregulate heat shock proteins (HSP), which decrease levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines. In this study, we evaluated whether HIFU modulates the cilia of ASCs by upregulating HSP70 and decreasing inflammatory cytokines. HIFU was applied at 0.2 J to rat skin, which was harvested at 1, 3, 7, and 28 days. All results for HIFU-applied animals were compared with control animals that were not treated. HIFU increased expression of HSP70 and decreased expression of NF-κB, IL-6, and TNF-α in sWAT. HIFU decreased the expression of cilia disassembly-related factors (AurA and HDAC9) in ASCs. Furthermore, HIFU increased the expression of cilia assembly-related factors (KIF3A and IFT88), decreased that of WNT5A/β-catenin, and increased that of the adipogenesis markers PPARγ and CEBPα in sWAT. HIFU increased the number of adipocytes in the sWAT and the thickness of sWAT. In conclusion, HIFU could selectively increase sWAT levels by modulating the cilia of ASCs and be used for skin rejuvenation.

Abstract
In this report, we summarize evidence on mechanisms of injury after intraventricular hemorrhage resulting in post-hemorrhagic white matter injury and hydrocephalus and correlate that with the possibility of cellular therapy. We describe how two stem cell lines (MSC & USSC) acting in a paracrine fashion offer promise for attenuating the magnitude of injury in animal models and for improved functional recovery by: lowering the magnitude of apoptosis and neuronal cell death, reducing inflammation, and thus, mitigating white matter injury that culminates in improved motor and neurocognitive outcomes. Animal models of IVH are analyzed for their similarity to the human condition and we discuss merits of each approach. Studies on stem cell therapy for IVH in human neonates is described. Lastly, we offer suggestions on what future studies are needed to better understand mechanisms of injury and recovery and argue that human trials need to be expanded in parallel to animal research.

Abstract
Osteoarthritis (OA) is a degenerative joint disease resulting in limited mobility and severe disability. Type II diabetes mellitus (T2D) is a weight-independent risk factor for OA, but a link between the two diseases has not been elucidated. Adipose stem cells (ASCs) isolated from the infrapatellar fat pad (IPFP) may be a viable regenerative cell for OA treatment. This study analyzed the expression profiles of inflammatory and adipokine-related genes in IPFP-ASCs of non-diabetic (Non-T2D), pre-diabetic (Pre-T2D), and T2D donors. Pre-T2D ASCs exhibited a substantial decrease in levels of mesenchymal markers CD90 and CD105 with no change in adipogenic differentiation compared to Non-T2D and T2D IPFP-ASCs. In addition, Cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2), Forkhead box G1 (FOXG1) expression and prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) secretion were significantly increased in Pre-T2D IPFP-ASCs upon stimulation by interleukin-1 beta (IL-1β). Interestingly, M1 macrophages exhibited a significant reduction in expression of pro-inflammatory markers TNFα and IL-6 when co-cultured with Pre-T2D IPFP-ASCs. These data suggest that the heightened systemic inflammation associated with untreated T2D may prime the IPFP-ASCs to exhibit enhanced anti-inflammatory characteristics via suppressing the IL-6/COX-2 signaling pathway. In addition, the elevated production of PGE2 by the Pre-T2D IPFP-ASCs may also suggest the contribution of pre-diabetic conditions to the onset and progression of OA.

Abstract
Thermal skin burn injury affects both adults and children globally. Severe burn injury affects a patient's life psychologically, cosmetically, and socially. The pathophysiology of burn injury is well known. Due to the complexity of burn pathophysiology, the development of specific treatment aiding in tissue regeneration is required. Treatment of burn injury depends on burn severity, size of the burn and availability of donor site. Burn healing requires biochemical and cellular events to ensure better cell response to biochemical signals of the healing process. This led to the consideration of using cell therapy for severe burn injury. Adult mesenchymal stem cells have become a therapeutic option because of their ability for self-renewal and differentiation. Adipose stromal vascular fraction (SVF), isolated from adipose tissues, is a heterogeneous cell population that contains adipose-derived stromal/stem cells (ADSC), stromal, endothelial, hematopoietic and pericytic lineages. SVF isolation has advantages over other types of cells; such as heterogeneity of cells, lower invasive extraction procedure, high yield of cells, and fast and easy isolation. Therefore, SVF has many characteristics that enable them to be a therapeutic option for burn treatment. Studies have been conducted mostly in animal models to investigate their therapeutic potential for burn injury. They can be used alone or in combination with other treatment options. Treatment with both ADSCs and/or SVF enhances burn healing through increasing re-epithelization, angiogenesis and decreasing inflammation and scar formation. Research needs to be conducted for a better understanding of the SVF mechanism in burn healing and to optimize current techniques for enhanced treatment outcomes.

Abstract
As opposed to remarkable advances in the cell therapy industry, researches reveal inexplicable difficulties associated with preserving and post-thawing cell death. Post cryopreservation apoptosis is a common occurrence that has attracted the attention of scientists to use apoptosis inhibitors. Transporting cells without compromising their survival and function is crucial for any experimental cell-based therapy. Preservation of cells allows the safe transportation of cells between distances and improves quality control testing in clinical and research applications. The vitality of transported cells is used to evaluate the efficacy of transportation strategies. For many decades, the conventional global methods of cell transfer were not only expensive but also challenging and had adverse effects. The first determination of some projects is optimizing cell survival after cryopreservation. The new generation of cryopreservation science wishes to find appropriate and alternative methods for cell transportation to ship viable cells at an ambient temperature without dry ice or in media-filled flasks. The diversity of cell therapies demands new cell shipping methodologies and cryoprotectants. In this review, we tried to summarize novel improved cryopreservation methods and alternatives to cryopreservation with safe and viable cell shipping at ambient temperature, including dry preservation, hypothermic preservation, gel-based methods, encapsulation methods, fibrin microbeads, and osmolyte solution compositions.

Abstract
Despite the great promise, cell therapy still faces practical challenges because of the scarcity of a reliable cell source. Herein, a bioinspired 3D dynamic culture system (CellMatrix) with rational structure, composite and function, was developed for improving cell supply. CellMatrix was composed of unique core-shell fibers with a core of black phosphorus-incorporated fibroin and a shell of sericin, which together formed a 3D silkworm cocoon-mimicking structure via a bottom-up fabrication technique. CellMatrix not only provided optimal engineered biomimetic niche to facilitate cell growth but exhibited good photothermal conversion to dynamically regulate cell fates. Importantly, cell-CellMatrix construct could be directly implanted into defected tissues and improved tissue remodeling. Meanwhile, CellMatrix displayed good ice resistance and thermal conductivity, which maximally maintained cell viability and proliferation after the freeze-thawing process, allowing for storing precious cells and cell-CellMatrix construct. Thus, CellMatrix represents an all-in-one biomimetic platform for the culture-production-storage of therapeutically qualified cells.

Abstract
Adipose-derived stromal cells (ADSC) are increasingly used in clinical applications due to their regenerative capabilities. However, ADSC therapies show variable results. This study analysed the effects of specific factors of ex-obese patients on ADSC functions. ADSC were harvested from abdominal tissues (N = 20) after massive weight loss. Patients were grouped according to age, sex, current and maximum body mass index (BMI), BMI difference, weight loss method, smoking and infection at the surgical site. ADSC surface markers, viability, migration, transmigration, sprouting, differentiation potential, cytokine secretion, telomere length and mtDNA copy number were analysed. All ADSC expressed CD73, CD90, CD105, while functional properties differed significantly among patients. A high BMI difference due to massive weight loss was negatively correlated with ADSC proliferation, migration and transmigration, while age, sex or weight loss method had a smaller effect. ADSC from female and younger donors and individuals after weight loss by increase of exercise and diet change had a higher activity. Telomere length, mtDNA copy number, differentiation potential and the secretome did not correlate with patient factors or cell function. Therefore, we suggest that factors such as age, sex, increase of exercise and especially weight loss should be considered for patient selection and planning of regenerative therapies.

Abstract
Following most injuries to a musculoskeletal tissue which function in unique mechanical environments, an inflammatory response occurs to facilitate endogenous repair. This is a process that usually yields functionally inferior scar tissue. In the case of such injuries occurring in adults, the injury environment no longer expresses the anabolic processes that contributed to growth and maturation. An injury can also contribute to the development of a degenerative process, such as osteoarthritis. Over the past several years, researchers have attempted to use cellular therapies to enhance the repair and regeneration of injured tissues, including Platelet-rich Plasma and mesenchymal stem/medicinal signaling cells (MSC) from a variety of tissue sources, either as free MSC or incorporated into tissue engineered constructs, to facilitate regeneration of such damaged tissues. The use of free MSC can sometimes affect pain symptoms associated with conditions such as OA, but regeneration of damaged tissues has been challenging, particularly as some of these tissues have very complex structures. Therefore, implanting MSC or engineered constructs into an inflammatory environment in an adult may compromise the potential of the cells to facilitate regeneration, and neutralizing the inflammatory environment and enhancing the anabolic environment may be required for MSC-based interventions to fulfill their potential. Thus, success may depend on first eliminating negative influences (e.g., inflammation) in an environment, and secondly, implanting optimally cultured MSC or tissue engineered constructs into an anabolic environment to achieve the best outcomes. Furthermore, such interventions should be considered early rather than later on in a disease process, at a time when sufficient endogenous cells remain to serve as a template for repair and regeneration. This review discusses how the interface between inflammation and cell-based regeneration of damaged tissues may be at odds, and outlines approaches to improve outcomes. In addition, other variables that could contribute to the success of cell therapies are discussed. Thus, there may be a need to adopt a Precision Medicine approach to optimize tissue repair and regeneration following injury to these important tissues.

Abstract
Mesenchymal stem/stromal cells (MSCs) hold great promise for the treatment of autoimmune conditions given their immunomodulatory properties. Based on the low immunogenicity of MSCs, it is tempting to consider the expansion of MSCs from a “universal donor” in culture prior to their allogeneic applications for immediate care. This raises the critical question of the criteria we should use to select the best “universal donor”. It is also imperative we compare the “universal” approach with a “personalized” one for clinical value. In addition to the call for MHC-matching, recent studies suggest that factors including age, sex, and biological sources of MSCs can have significant impact on therapy outcome. Here, we will review findings from these studies, which shed light on the variables that can guide the important choice of “universal” or “personalized” MSC therapy for autoimmune diseases.

Abstract
Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) infection evokes severe proinflammatory storm and pulmonary infection with the number of confirmed cases (more than 200 million) and mortality (5 million) continue to surge globally. A number of vaccines (e.g., Moderna, Pfizer, Johnson/Janssen and AstraZeneca vaccines) have been developed over the past two years to restrain the rapid spread of COVID-19. However, without much of effective drug therapies, COVID-19 continues to cause multiple irreversible organ injuries and is drawing intensive attention for cell therapy in the management of organ damage in this devastating COVID-19 pandemic. For example, mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) have exhibited promising results in COVID-19 patients. Preclinical and clinical findings have favored the utility of stem cells in the management of COVID-19-induced adverse outcomes via inhibition of cytokine storm and hyperinflammatory syndrome with coinstantaneous tissue regeneration capacity. In this review, we will discuss the existing data with regards to application of stem cells for COVID-19.

Abstract
The recent interest in advanced biologic therapies in veterinary medicine has opened up opportunities for new treatment modalities with considerable clinical potential. Studies with mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) from animal species have focused on in vitro characterization (mostly following protocols developed for human application), experimental testing in controlled studies and clinical use in veterinary patients. The ability of MSCs to interact with the inflammatory environment through immunomodulatory and paracrine mechanisms makes them a good candidate for treatment of inflammatory musculoskeletal conditions in canine species. Analysis of existing data shows promising results in the treatment of canine hip dysplasia, osteoarthritis and rupture of the cranial cruciate ligament in both sport and companion animals. Despite the absence of clear regulatory frameworks for veterinary advanced therapy medicinal products, there has been an increase in the number of commercial cell-based products that are available for clinical applications, and currently the commercial use of veterinary MSC products has outpaced basic research on characterization of the cell product. In the absence of quality standards for MSCs for use in canine patients, their safety, clinical efficacy and production standards are uncertain, leading to a risk of poor product consistency. To deliver high-quality MSC products for veterinary use in the future, there are critical issues that need to be addressed. By translating standards and strategies applied in human MSC manufacturing to products for veterinary use, in a collaborative effort between stem cell scientists and veterinary researchers and surgeons, we hope to facilitate the development of quality standards. We point out critical issues that need to be addressed, including a much higher level of attention to cell characterization, manufacturing standards and release criteria. We provide a set of recommendations that will contribute to the standardization of cell manufacturing methods and better quality assurance.

Abstract
Background Mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) may reduce mortality in patients with COVID-19; however, early evidence is based on few studies with marked interstudy heterogeneity. The second iteration of our living systematic review and meta-analysis evaluates a framework needed for synthesizing evidence from high-quality studies to accelerate consideration for approval. Methods A systematic search of the literature was conducted on November 15, 2021, to identify all English-language, full-text, and controlled clinical studies examining MSCs to treat COVID-19 (PROSPERO: CRD42021225431). Findings Eleven studies were identified (403 patients with severe and/or critical COVID-19, including 207 given MSCs and 196 controls). All 11 studies reported mortality and were pooled through random-effects meta-analysis. MSCs decreased relative risk of death at study endpoint (RR: 0.50 [95% CI, 0.34-0.75]) and RR of death at 28 days after treatment (0.19 [95% CI], 0.05-0.78) compared to controls. MSCs also decreased length of hospital stay (mean difference (MD: −3.97 days [95% CI, −6.09 to −1.85], n = 5 studies) and increased oxygenation levels at study endpoint compared to controls (MD: 105.62 mmHg O2 [95% CI, 73.9-137.3,], n = 3 studies). Only 2 of 11 studies reported on all International Society for Cellular Therapy (ISCT) criteria for MSC characterization. Included randomized controlled trials were found to have some concerns (n = 2) to low (n = 4) risk of bias (RoB), while all non-randomized studies were found to have moderate (n = 5) RoB. Interpretation Our updated living systematic review concludes that MSCs can likely reduce mortality in patients with severe or critical COVID-19. A master protocol based on our Faster Approval framework appears necessary to facilitate the more accelerated accumulation of high-quality evidence that would reduce RoB, improve consistency in product characterization, and standardize outcome reporting.
