Abstract
Mesenchymal stem/stromal cells (MSC) remain a promising tool for regenerative medicine as the efficacy of MSC-based cell therapy has been demonstrated for a broad spectrum of indications. Their therapeutic potency is mainly associated with their ability to secrete multiple factors critical for tissue regeneration. Due to comparable effects along with superior safety MSC conditioned medium (MSC-CM) containing a complex of MSC-secreted products is considered a reasonable alternative to cell therapy. However, the lack of standards regulating bioprocessing, use of proper auxiliary materials, and quality control complicates the development of MSC secretome-based therapeutics. In this study, we suggested several approaches addressing these issues. We manufactured 36 MSC-CM samples based on different xeno-free serum-free chemically defined media (DMEM-LG or MSC NutriStem® XF) using original protocols and considered total concentrations of regeneration-associated paracrine factors secreted by human adipose-derived MSC at each time-point of conditioning. Using regression analysis, we retrospectively predicted associations between concentrations of several components of MSC-CM and its biological activity to stimulate human dermal fibroblast and endothelial cell migration in vitro as routine examples of potency assays for cell-based products. We also demonstrated that the cell culture medium might affect MSC-CM biological activity to varying degrees depending on the potency assay type. Furthermore, we showed that regression analysis might help to overcome donor variability. The suggested approaches might be successfully applied for other cell types if their secretome was shown to be promising for application in regenerative medicine.

Abstract
Recent studies suggest that the main driving force behind the therapeutic activity observed in mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are the paracrine factors secreted by these cells. These biomolecules also trigger antiapoptotic events to prevent further degeneration of the diseased organ through paracrine signalling mechanisms. In comparison with the normal physiological conditions, an increased paracrine gradient is observed within the peripheral system of diseased organs that enhances the migration of tissue-specific MSCs towards the site of infection or injury to promote healing. Thus, upon administration of conditioned media derived from mesenchymal stem cell cultures (MSC-CM) could contribute in maintaining the increased paracrine factor gradient between the diseased organ and the stem cell niche in order to speed up the process of recovery. Based on the principle of the paracrine signalling mechanism, MSC-CM, also referred as the secretome of the MSCs, is a rich source of the paracrine factors and are being studied extensively for a wide range of regenerative therapies such as myocardial infarction, stroke, bone regeneration, hair growth, and wound healing. This article highlights the current technological applications and advances of MSC-CM with the aim to appraise its future potential as a regenerative therapeutic agent.

Abstract
Production of cytokines and growth factors by cultured human umbilical cord tissue- and bone marrow-derived multipotent mesenchymal stromal cells was measured by multiplex analysis. In most cases, the concentrations of bioactive factors in the culture medium conditioned by umbilical cord-derived cells was ten- to hundred-times higher than in the medium conditioned by bone marrow-derived cells. These results suggest that both multipotent mesenchymal stromal cells from the umbilical cord and cell-free products can have more pronounced therapeutic effect in comparison with mesenchymal stromal cells obtained from "adult" sources.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Based on beneficial effects of aspirin and mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) on myelin repair, in a preset study, effects of co-administration of aspirin and conditioned medium from adipose tissue-derived stem cells (ADSC-CM) on functional recovery of optic pathway, demyelination levels, and astrocytes' activation were evaluated in a lysolecithin (LPC)-induced demyelination model of optic chiasm. METHODS LPC (1%, 2 µL) was injected into the rat optic chiasm and animals underwent daily intraperitoneal (i.p.) injections of ADSCs-CM and oral gavage of aspirin at a dose of 25 mg/kg for 14 days post LPC injection. The conductivity of visual signals was assessed using visual evoked potential recordings (VEPs) before LPC injection and on days 7 and 14 post lesion. Immunostaining against PDGFRα as oligodendrocyte precursor cells marker, MOG as mature myelin marker, and GFAP as astrocyte marker was performed on brain sections at day 14 post LPC injection. FluoroMyelin staining was also used to measure the extent of demyelination areas. RESULTS Our results showed that administration of ADSCs-CM and aspirin significantly reduced the latency of VEP waves in LPC receiving animals. In addition, demyelination levels and GFAP expressing cells were attenuated while the number of oligodendrocyte precursor cells significantly increased in rats treated with ADSCs-CM and aspirin. CONCLUSION Overall, our results suggest that co-administration of ADSCs-CM and aspirin improves the functional recovery of optic pathway through amelioration of astrocyte activation and attenuation of demyelination level.

Abstract
Background: Chronic plantar ulcers are common problems for leprosy patients with numb feet due to their prolonged healing time. Chronic plantar ulcers affect the quality of life of patients and can lead to more serious complications, such as disability and deformity, if not handled appropriately. Wound-care products in the market, however, give unsatisfactory results. One factor in the delayed healing of chronic plantar ulcers due to leprosy is the lack of growth factors and cytokines in the wound due to reduced blood supply. We speculated that application of human amniotic membrane stem cell (hAMSC) secretome, which contains growth factors and cytokines, could improve wound healing. Aim: To evaluate the effect of topical application of a hAMSC secretome gel on wound healing of chronic plantar ulcers due to leprosy. Materials and Methods: We recruited 11 patients after leprosy treatment with chronic plantar ulcers due to leprosy. hAMSC secretome gel was applied topically to ulcers every 3 days for up to 2 months. Ulcer size and possible side effects or complications from gel application were evaluated weekly. Results: The ulcers of 8 of 11 patients (72.7%) completely healed, the ulcers of 2 patients (18.2%) partially healed, and the ulcers of 1 patient (9.1%) persisted. No ulcers became worse. Conclusion: hAMSC secretome was found to be an efficacious and well-tolerated alternative therapy for chronic plantar ulcers due to leprosy.

Abstract
The two main sources of mesenchymal stem cell (MSCs) in the canine species are bone marrow (cBM-MSCs) and adipose tissue (cAd-MSCs). The secretion of multitude bioactive molecules, included under the concept of secretome and found in the cultured medium, play a predominant role in the mechanism of action of these cells on tissue regeneration. Although certain features of its characterization are well documented, their secretory profiles remain unknown. We described and compared, for the first time, the secretory profile and exosomes characterization in standard monolayer culture of MSCs from both sources of the same donor as well as its immunomodulatory potential. We found that despite the similarity in surface immunophenotyping and trilineage differentiation, there are several differences in terms of proliferation rate and secretory profile. cAd-MSCs have advantages in proliferative capacity, whereas cBM-MSCs showed a significantly higher secretory production of some soluble factors (IL-10, IL-2, IL-6, IL-8, IL-12p40, IFN-γ, VEGF-A, NGF-β, TGF-β, NO and PGE2) and exosomes under the same standard culture conditions. Proteomics analysis confirm that cBM-MSCs exosomes have a greater number of characterized proteins involved in metabolic processes and in the regulation of biological processes compared to cAd-MSCs. On the other hand, secretome from both sources demonstrate similar immunomodulatory capacity when tested in mitogen stimulated lymphocyte reaction, but not in their exosomes at the dose used. Considering that the use of secretome open as a new therapeutic strategy for different diseases, without the need to implant cells, those biological differences should be considered, when choosing the MSCs source, for either cellular implantation or direct use of secretome for a specific clinical application.

Abstract
Multipotent mesenchymal stem/stromal cells (MSCs) possess robust self-renewal characteristics and the ability to differentiate into tissue-specific cells. Their therapeutic potential appears promising as evident from their efficacy in several animal models of pulmonary disorders as well as early-phase clinical trials of acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Such therapeutic efficacy might be attributed to MSC-derived products (the "secretome"), namely conditioned media (CM) and extracellular vesicles (EVs), which have been shown to play pivotal roles in the regenerative function of MSCs. Importantly, the EVs secreted by MSCs can transfer a variety of bioactive factors to modulate the function of recipient cells via various mechanisms, including ligand-receptor interactions, direct membrane fusion, endocytosis, or phagocytosis.Herein, we review the current state-of-the-science of MSC-derived CM and EVs as potential therapeutic agents in lung diseases. We suggest that the MSC-derived secretome might be an appropriate therapeutic agent for treating aggressive pulmonary disorders because of biological and logistical advantages over live cell therapy. Nonetheless, further studies are warranted to elucidate the safety and efficacy of these components in combating pulmonary diseases.

Abstract
Kidney diseases including acute kidney injury and chronic kidney disease are among the largest health issues worldwide. Dialysis and kidney transplantation can replace a significant portion of renal function, however these treatments still have limitations. To overcome these shortcomings, a variety of innovative efforts have been introduced, including cell-based therapies. During the past decades, advances have been made in the stem cell and developmental biology, and tissue engineering. As part of such efforts, studies on renal cell therapy and artificial kidney developments have been conducted, and multiple therapeutic interventions have shown promise in the pre-clinical and clinical settings. More recently, therapeutic cell-secreting secretomes have emerged as a potential alternative to cell-based approaches. This approach involves the use of renotropic factors, such as growth factors and cytokines, that are produced by cells and these factors have shown effectiveness in facilitating kidney function recovery. This review focuses on the renotropic functions of bioactive compounds that provide protective and regenerative effects for kidney tissue repair, based on the available data in the literature.

Abstract
Lineage specification is an essential process in stem cell fate, tissue homeostasis and development. Microenvironmental cues provide direct and selective extrinsic signals to regulate lineage specification of stem cells. Microenvironmental milieu consists of two essential components, one being extracellular matrix (ECM) as the substratum, while the other being cell secreted exosomes and growth factors. ECM of differentiated cells modulates phenotypic expression of stem cells, while their exosomes contain phenotype specific instructive factors (miRNA, RNA and proteins) that control stem cell differentiation. This study demonstrates that osteoblasts-derived (Os-Exo) and adipocytes-derived (Ad-Exo) exosomes contain instructive factors that regulate the lineage specification of human mesenchymal stem cells (hMSCs). Analyses of exosomes revealed the presence of transcription factors in the form of RNA and protein for osteoblasts (RUNX2 and OSX) and adipocytes (C/EBPα and PPARγ). In addition, several miRNAs reported to have osteogenic and adipogenic differentiation potentials are also identified in these exosomes. Kinetic and differentiation analyses indicate that both osteoblast and adipocyte exosomes augment ECM-mediated differentiation of hMSCs into the respective lineage. The combination of osteoblast/adipocyte ECM and exosomes turned-on the lineage specific gene expressions at earlier time points of differentiation compared to the respective ECM or exosomes administered individually. Interestingly, the hMSCs differentiated on osteoblast ECM with adipogenic exosomes showed expression of adipogenic lineage genes, while hMSCs differentiated on adipocyte ECM with osteoblast exosomes showed osteogenic lineage genes. Based on these observations, we conclude that exosomes might override the ECM mediated instructive signals during lineage specification of hMSC.

Abstract
Mesenchymal stem cells (MSC) have a lot of potential in regenerative medicine, and MSC-based therapies are currently explored in numerous research fields. Among these cells, deciduous or permanent dental pulp-MSC represent a promising option in tissue engineering. This expectation is based on their capacity to self-renew, to repair various damaged tissues and organs due to their multipotency, as well as their ability to modulate immune system. They present other advantages such as the harvesting by a simple, painless, and noninvasive procedure and the absence of ethical considerations. The role played by these cells in the reparative process is mainly attributed to paracrine mechanisms mediated by their secreted factors, namely the secretome. The secreted factors can be found in the cell culture medium, called conditioned medium (CM). Moreover, CM presents many advantages compared with cells such as possible use in allogeneic therapies. This minireview aims at investigating the therapeutic use of dental pulp MSC-derived CM to develop cell-free therapies. The analysis of the available literature illustrates its massive panel of potential applications: mainly reduction of inflammation, promotion of angiogenesis and neurogenesis, reduction of stroke or ischemia, and organ regeneration. Furthermore, studies often highlight its superiority over the other sources of CM derived from other stem cells for the same applications. Dental pulp MSC-derived CM is an attractive, noninvasive, and acellular tool for therapeutic approaches in regenerative medicine. This promising novel approach should be further explored for clinical applications.

Abstract
Background Testicular dysfunction is a degenerative disorder characterized by failure in the synthesis of reproductive hormones and spermatogenesis. Secretome derived from the human umbilical mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) has been reported to repair some degenerative disorders. Aim This study aimed to investigate the effect of secretome derived from the human umbilical MSCs on cisplatin-induced testicular dysfunction in rats. Materials and Methods Thirty-six male Wistar rats were divided into the control and secretome-treated groups. In the secretome-treated group, testicular dysfunction was induced by 3 mg/kg BW of cisplatin intraperitoneally 3 times with 3-day intervals. The secretome-treated group was divided according to dose: Low-dose (0.2 mL/kg BW) and high-dose (0.5 mL/kg BW) groups. Secretomes were injected intraperitoneally once a week for 3 weeks. 1 week after the injection of secretome, the cauda epididymis of the rats was removed for spermatozoa evaluation and histological examination. Result After the injection of secretome, the sperm motility of the high-dose group showed thin wave-like, rare, and slow movements. No abnormal sperm morphology was observed in all the treated groups. The number of spermatozoa increased gradually in the high-dose group after the injection of secretome. The developmental stages of the spermatogenic cells were complete in both spermatozoa groups after the injection of secretome. However, the spermatozoa in the seminiferous tubules of the high-dose group were denser. Vimentin and cytokeratin immunoreactivities were very strong in the high-dose group 1 week after the second secretome injection. Conclusion High-dose secretome derived from the human fetal umbilical cord could increase the number and motility of sperms in rats with cisplatin-induced testicular dysfunction. The administration of high-dose secretome was effective 1 week after the second dose, as indicated by very strong immunoreactivity for vimentin and cytokeratin. Moreover, secretome could promote the regeneration of the seminiferous tubules of both the groups.

Systemic delivery of mesenchymal stem cells condition media in repeated doses acts as magic bullets in restoring IFN-γ/IL-4 balance in asthmatic rats. Life Sci 2018; 212:30-36. [PMID: 30268855 DOI: 10.1016/j.lfs.2018.09.049] [Citation(s) in RCA: 31] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/28/2018] [Revised: 09/23/2018] [Accepted: 09/26/2018] [Indexed: 01/01/2023]
Abstract
AIMS With respect to recent advantage in stem cell application, given the concern reported previously after stem cell transplantation, mesenchymal stem cell-derived conditioned media (MSC-CM) could be a potential approach to guarantee more safety and efficient outcomes than the current stem cell-based regenerative therapies. MAIN METHODS Male rats were assigned into four experimental groups (n = 6); healthy rats (C group), OVA sensitized rats (S group), OVA sensitized rats received a single dose of 50 μl CM intravenously (S group + SD-CM) and OVA sensitized rats received repeated doses of 50 μl CM intravenously (S group + RD-CM). Two weeks post-allergen challenge, the therapeutic effects of systemic administrated CM in single and repeated dosages were investigated by monitoring the transcription of T-bet, GATA-3, IL-4 and IFN-γ genes along with pathological changes in asthmatic lung tissue. IL-4 and IFN-γ levels and IFN-γ/IL-4 ratio were further evaluated in sera. KEY FINDINGS Our data revealed that the systemic introduction of CM in repeated dosages could significantly reduce pathological injures in OVA-sensitized rats by the modulation of expression of T-bet and GATA-3 in lung tissues and interleukins levels (p < 0.001 to p < 0.05). In contrary, CM in single dosage did not yield any beneficial effect. SIGNIFICANCE Overall, we indicated that systemic administration of CM in repeated dosages, but not in single dose, could be strategic approach in amelioration of asthmatic changes, presumably by the regulating the differentiation of naive CD4 T cells into Th1/Th2 effector cells via modulation of T-bet and GATA-3 expression in OVA-sensitized male rats.

Abstract
Current treatments for ischemia-reperfusion (IR)-induced acute lung injury are limited. Mesenchymal stem cell-conditioned medium (CM) has been reported to attenuate lung injury. Neural crest stem cells (NCSCs), a type of multipotent stem cells, are more easily obtained than mesenchymal stem cells. We hypothesize that NCSC-CM has anti-inflammatory properties that could protect against IR-induced lung injury in rats. In this study, NCSC-CM was derived from rat NCSCs. Typical acute lung injury was induced by 30-min ischemia followed by 90-min reperfusion in adult male Sprague–Dawley rats. Bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) and lung tissues were collected to analyze the degree of lung injury after the experiment. NCSC-CM was administered before ischemia and after reperfusion. NCSC-CM treatment significantly attenuated IR-induced lung edema, as indicated by decreases in pulmonary vascular permeability, lung weight gain, wet to dry weight ratio, lung weight to body weight ratio, pulmonary arterial pressure, and protein level in BALF. The levels of tumor necrosis factor-α and interleukin-6 in the BALF were also significantly decreased. Additionally, NCSC-CM improved lung pathology and neutrophil infiltration in the lung tissue, and significantly suppressed nuclear factor (NF)-κB activity and IκB-α degradation in the lung. However, heating NCSC-CM eliminated these protective effects. Our experiment demonstrates that NCSC-CM treatment decreases IR-induced acute lung injury and that the protective mechanism may be attributable to the inhibition of NF-κB activation and the inflammatory response. Therefore, NCSC-CM may be a novel approach for treating IR-induced lung injury.

Abstract
Human pluripotent stem cells (hPSCs) are promising therapeutic tools for regenerative therapies and disease modeling. Differentiation of cultured hPSCs is influenced by both exogenous factors added to the cultures and endogenously secreted molecules. Optimization of protocols for the differentiation of hPSCs into different cell types is difficult because of the many variables that can influence cell fate. We present microfluidic devices designed to perform three- and four-factor, two-level full factorial experiments in parallel for investigating and directly optimizing hPSC differentiation. These devices feature diffusion-isolated, independent culture wells that allow for control of both exogenous and endogenous cellular signals and that allow for immunocytochemistry (ICC) and confocal microscopy in situ. These devices are fabricated by soft lithography in conjunction with 3D-printed molds and are operable with a single syringe pump, eliminating the need for specialized equipment or cleanroom facilities. Their utility was demonstrated by on-chip differentiation of hPSCs into the auditory neuron lineage. More broadly, these devices enable multiplexing for experimentation with any adherent cell type or even multiple cell types, allowing efficient investigation of the effects of medium conditions, pharmaceuticals, or other soluble reagents.

Abstract
In recent years, mesenchymal stem cells have provoked much attentiveness in the field of regenerative medicine because of their differentiation potential and the capability to facilitate tissue repair via the emancipation of biologically active molecules. They have gained interest because of their distinctive curative properties. Mesenchymal stem cells are isolated from the Wharton’s jelly part of umbilical cord possessing higher proliferation capacity, immunomodulatory activity, plasticity, as well as self-renewal capacity than the mesenchymal stem cells from various origins, and it is considered to be the best resource for allogeneic transplantation. The isolated umbilical cord-derived mesenchymal stem cells are cultured in the Dulbecco’s Modified Eagle’s Medium, and thereby it begins to release soluble factors into the medium during the period of culture which is termed as conditioned medium. This conditioned media has both differentiation capacity and therapeutic functions. Thus, it can be able to differentiate the cells into different lineages and the paracrine effect of these cells helps in replacement of the damaged cells. This medium may accord to optimization of diagnostic and prognostic systems as well as the generation of novel and targeted therapeutic perspectives.

Abstract
Regenerative medicine seeks to harness the potential of cell biology for tissue replacement therapies, which will restore lost tissue functionality. Controlling and enhancing tissue healing is not just a matter of cells, but also of molecules and mechanical forces. We first describe the main biological technologies to boost musculoskeletal healing, including bone marrow and subcutaneous fat-derived regenerative products, as well as platelet-rich plasma and conditioned media. We provide some information describing possible mechanisms of action. We performed a literature search up to January 2016 searching for clinical outcomes following the use of cell therapies for sports conditions, tendons, and joints. The safety and efficacy of cell therapies for tendon conditions was examined in nine studies involving undifferentiated and differentiated (skin fibroblasts, tenocytes) cells. A total of 54 studies investigated the effects of mesenchymal stem-cell (MSC) products for joint conditions including anterior cruciate ligament, meniscus, and chondral lesions as well as osteoarthritis. In 22 studies, cellular products were injected intra-articularly, whereas in 32 studies MSC products were implanted during surgical/arthroscopic procedures. The heterogeneity of clinical conditions, cellular products, and approaches for delivery/implantation make comparability difficult. MSC products appear safe in the short- and mid-term, but studies with a long follow-up are scarce. Although the current number of randomized clinical studies is low, stem-cell products may have therapeutic potential. However, these regenerative technologies still need to be optimized.

Abstract
We report a high-sensitivity cell secretome detection method using competitive immuno-aggregation and a micro-Coulter counter. A target cell secretome protein competes with anti-biotin-coated microparticles (MPs) to bind with a biotinylated antibody (Ab), causing decreased aggregation of the functionalized MPs and formation of a mixture of MPs and aggregates. In comparison, without the target cell secretome protein, more microparticles are functionalized, and more aggregates are formed. Thus, a decrease in the average volume of functionalized microparticles/aggregates indicates an increase in cell secretome concentration. This volume change is measured by the micro-Coulter counter, which is used to quantitatively estimate the cell secretome concentration. Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), one of the key cell secretome proteins that regulate angiogenesis and vascular permeabilization, was used as the target protein to demonstrate the sensing principle. A standard calibration curve was generated by testing samples with various VEGF concentrations. A detection range from 0.01 ng/mL to 100.00 ng/mL was achieved. We further demonstrated the quantification of VEGF concentration in exogenous samples collected from the secretome of human mesenchymal stem cells (hMSCs) at different incubation times. The results from the assay agree well with the results of a parallel enzyme-linked immunoabsorbent assay (ELISA) test, indicating the specificity and reliability of the competitive immuno-aggregation assay. With its simple structure and easy sample preparation, this assay not only enables high sensitivity detection of VEGF but also can be readily extended to other types of cell secretome analysis as long as the specific Ab is known.

Abstract
Background We have developed a simple lipoaspirate washing method using a coffee filter to eliminate liposuction noxious material before isolating adipose tissue derived mesenchymal stem cells (AT-MSCs), and used them in clinical trials. Before administration to patients, MSCs are usually suspended in physiologic saline. However, MSCs only survive for a limited time in physiologic saline. Therefore, alternative solution that can preserve MSC survival will be beneficial. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to compare the use of physiologic saline and Dulbecco's modified Eagle's Medium (DMEM) as temporary storage solution for our AT-MSCs. Methods We did viability assessments of AT MSCs after 0, 3, 6, 24, 48, 72, and 96 hours suspended in physiologic saline compared to DMEM, and stored at 4 ℃. Further proliferation capacities of the cells after various suspension times were assessed. All viability and proliferation capacity assessments were done in four replications. Differences between the various suspension time in terms of viability and proliferation capacity were compared and tested by ANOVA or Kruskal-Wallis test. Results Viability was >70% after 48 hours in physiologic saline and 24 hours in DMEM, which showed that physiologic saline was superior compared to DMEM. Increase in PDT began to be significant compared to initial PDT after 24 hours in both physiologic saline, and DMEM. Conclusions For our AT-MSCs, physiologic saline was superior to DMEM, and storage should not exceed 24 hours.

Abstract
Cellular therapies are emerging as a novel treatment strategy for diabetes. Thus, the induction of endogenous islet regeneration in situ represents a feasible goal for diabetes therapy. Umbilical cord blood-derived hematopoietic progenitor cells (HPCs), isolated by high aldehyde dehydrogenase activity (ALDHhi), have previously been shown to reduce hyperglycemia after intrapancreatic (iPan) transplantation into streptozotocin (STZ)-treated nonobese diabetic (NOD)/severe combined immunodeficiency (SCID) mice. However, these cells are rare and require ex vivo expansion to reach clinically applicable numbers for human therapy. Therefore, we investigated whether BMS 493, an inverse retinoic acid receptor agonist, could prevent retinoic acid-induced differentiation and preserve islet regenerative functions during expansion. After 6-day expansion, BMS 493-treated cells showed a twofold increase in the number of ALDHhi cells available for transplantation compared with untreated controls. Newly expanded ALDHhi cells showed increased numbers of CD34 and CD133-positive cells, as well as a reduction in CD38 expression, a marker of hematopoietic cell differentiation. BMS 493-treated cells showed similar hematopoietic colony-forming capacity compared with untreated cells, with ALDHhi subpopulations producing more colonies than low aldehyde dehydrogenase activity subpopulations for expanded cells. To determine if the secreted proteins of these cells could augment the survival and/or proliferation of β-cells in vitro, conditioned media (CM) from cells expanded with or without BMS 493 was added to human islet cultures. The total number of proliferating β-cells was increased after 3- or 7-day culture with CM generated from BMS 493-treated cells. In contrast to freshly isolated ALDHhi cells, 6-day expansion with or without BMS 493 generated progeny that were unable to reduce hyperglycemia after iPan transplantation into STZ-treated NOD/SCID mice. Further strategies to reduce retinoic acid differentiation during HPC expansion is required to expand ALDHhi cells without the loss of islet regenerative functions.

Abstract
Objective Adipose derived stem cells (ASCs) secrete numerous neurotrophic factors and cytokines in conditioned medium
(CM), which protect neurons by its antioxidative and trophic effects. This research assesses the neuroprotective effect of ASC-
CM on neurotrophins genes expressions and tyrosine hydroxylase positive (TH+) cell density in male Wistar rats lesioned by
6-hydroxydopamine (6-OHDA).
Materials and Methods In this experimental study, the groups consisted of lesioned and sham rats with unilateral
injections of 20 µg of 6-OHDA neurotoxin and phosphate buffered saline (PBS) into the striatum, respectively. Another
groups received intravenous injections of 3×106 cells (ASCs group), 500 µl of CM (ASC-CM group) or medium [α-minimal
essential medium (α-MEM) group)]. All rats underwent evaluations with the rotarod and apomorphine-induced rotation
tests at 2, 4, 6, and 8 weeks post-injection. At 8 weeks we sacrificed some of the animals for real-time polymerase chain
reaction (PCR) analysis, and evaluation of TH+cell counts.
Results We observed a significant decrease in contralateral turns to the lesions in the ASCs and ASC-CM groups
compared to the neurotoxin lesioned or α-MEM groups at 8 weeks post transplantation. Cell and CM- injected rats
showed a significant increase of staying on the rotarod compared to the lesion or α-MEM groups. Cell and CM-treated
rats showed significant increases in the NGF and NT3 genes, respectively, compared with the lesion group. Both
treated groups showed significant increases in BDNF gene expression and TH+ cell density.
Conclusion The results suggested that ASCs and ASC-CM protected dopaminergic neurons through the expressions
of neurotrophin genes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This study was conducted to determine the potential of the monocytes educated with rat bone marrow mesenchymal stem cell-derived conditioned medium (MCM) in ameliorating animal model of asthma. METHODS Chronic asthma was induced in the BALB/c mice using ovalbumin (OVA) sensitization. The monocytes were isolated from blood of mice and supplemented with 50% MCM or negative control media. After 24 h, the cells were designated as "non-educated or educated". Fourteen weeks after the onset of the study, animals were treated with educated or non-educated monocytes twice with a 1-week interval. RESULTS The educated monocytes showed a reduction in the potential production of the respiratory burst and nitric oxide and the secretion of IL-12 and IL-4 compared to non-educated monocytes. Conversely, these monocytes exhibited a significant increase in the production of IL-10 and TGF-?. Also, the levels of CD68+/CD206+ cells significantly increased in the population of educated monocytes. More importantly, the severity of histopathological lesions, NF-?B p65 mRNA level in lung tissues, total serum IgE and the total cell count, as well as the eosinophil count in the bronchoalveolar lavage fluid, were significantly decreased in OVA-inhaled mice treated with educated monocytes compared to OVA-sensitized group receiving non-educated monocytes. With no advantage in up-regulation of Foxp3 Treg cells, the treatment with educated monocytes reduced the secretion of IL-5 and IL-13 by splenocytes of asthma mice more than splenocytes of the asthma mice treated with non-educated monocytes. CONCLUSION The educated monocytes with MCM may be as a promising strategy for cell-based therapies of asthma.

Abstract
Bone tissue engineering is based on bone grafting to repair bone defects. Bone graft substitutes can contribute to the addition of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) in order to enhance the rate and the quality of defect regeneration. The stem cell secretome contains many growth factors and chemokines, which could affect cellular characteristics and behavior. Conditioned medium (CM) could be used in tissue regeneration avoiding several problems linked to the direct use of MSCs. In this study, we investigated the effect of human periodontal ligament stem cells (hPDLSCs) and their CM on bone regeneration using a commercially available membrane scaffold Evolution (EVO) implanted in rat calvarias. EVO alone or EVO + hPDLSCs with or without CM were implanted in Wistar male rats subjected to calvarial defects. The in vivo results revealed that EVO membrane enriched with hPDLSCs and CM showed a better osteogenic ability to repair the calvarial defect. These results were confirmed by acquired micro-computed tomography (CT) images and the increased osteopontin levels. Moreover, RT-PCR in vitro revealed the upregulation of three genes (Collagen (COL)5A1, COL16A1 and transforming growth factor (TGF)β1) and the down regulation of 26 genes involved in bone regeneration. These results suggest a promising potential application of CM from hPDLSCs and scaffolds for bone defect restoration and in particular for calvarial repair in case of trauma.

Abstract
Treatment of bovine mastitis with intramammary antibiotics is common, yet several concerns exist including failed efficacy for individual hosts or pathogens and the inability of approved drugs to revert mastitis-induced tissue damage to healthy tissue capable of returning to full milk production. These issues, in addition to aspects of public health such as accidental antibiotic residues in saleable milk and the potential for antimicrobial resistance, support the need to find alternative therapies for this costly disease. This study shows that the secretome, or collective factors, produced by mammosphere-derived cells (MDC) promotes angiogenesis, epithelial cell migration, and contains proteins associated with immunity and defense; all of which are necessary for healing damaged mammary gland tissue. Furthermore, we found that the MDC secretome remains effective after freezing and thawing, enhancing its therapeutic potential. Our results provide a foundation for further characterization of the individual secreted factors and the rationale for using the MDC secretome as a complementary treatment for bovine mastitis.

Abstract
Sheep is a relevant large animal model that is frequently used to test innovative tissue engineering (TE) approaches especially for bone reconstruction. Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are used in TE applications because they represent key component of adult tissue repair. Importantly, MSCs from different species show similar characteristics, which facilitated their application in translational studies using animal models. Nowadays, many researches are focusing on the use of ovine mesenchymal stem cells (oMSCs) in orthopedic preclinical settings for regenerative medicine purposes. Therefore, there is a need to amplify our knowledge on the mechanisms underlying the behaviour of these cells. Recently, several studies have shown that MSC function is largely dependent on factors that MSCs release in the environment, as well as, in conditioned medium (CM). It has been demonstrated that MSCs through autocrine and paracrine signals are able to stimulate proliferation, migration, and differentiation of different type of cells including themselves. In this study, we investigated the effects of the CM produced by oMSCs on oMSCs themselves and we explored the signal pathways involved. We observed that CM caused an enhancement of oMSC migration. Furthermore, we found that CM increased levels of two membrane proteins involved in cell migration, Aquaporin 1 (AQP1), and C-X-C chemokine receptor type 4 (CXCR4), and activated Akt and Erk intracellular signal pathways. In conclusion, taken together our results suggest the high potential of autologous CM as a promising tool to modulate behaviour of MSCs thus improving their use in therapeutically approaches.

Abstract
Background: Nowadays, umbilical cord- and adipose-derived stem cells (UCSCs and ASCs) are the most common sources of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs). As part of the tumor microenvironment, MSCs are known to communicate with cancer cells via their secretomes. Increased activity of aldehyde dehydrogenase-1 (ALDH1) has been widely used as a common intrinsic stemness marker in normal and cancer stem cells. Our study aimed to elaborate on the effect of UCSC and ASC secretomes on the expression of ALDH1A3, as one of the important variants of ALDH1, TGF-β1 and TGF-β receptor type I (TβRI) in human breast cancer stem cells (BCSCs). Methods: UCSCs and ASCs were cultured in serum-free α-MEM media under standard conditions for 24 hours. The conditioned medium (CM) containing secretomes of UCSCs and ASCs were collected and added 50% (v/v) to the cultured of human BCSCs for 72 hours. The mRNA expressions of ALDH1A3, TGF-β1, and TβRI were determined using quantitative Reverse Transcriptase Polymerase Chain Reaction (q-RT-PCR). Results: We found that CM of UCSCs significantly increased the ALDH1A3 expression of BCSCs in parallel with the increase of TGF-β1 and TβRI expressions. Conversely, CM of ASCs had no significant effect on the ALDH1A3 expression, but significantly decreased TGF-β1 and TβRI expressions of BCSCs. These results contradict our published data on ALDH1A1, which is another important variant of ALDH1, as well as data of the pluripotency markers OCT4 and SOX2 expressions. Conclusions: UCSC and ASC secretomes have different regulation on ALDH1A3 expression in human BCSCs, which may be related to the autocrine TGF-β1 signaling in modulating cell proliferation and stemness of BCSCs. Further studies are required to evaluate factors involved in the differential effects of UCSC and ASC secretomes that regulate ALDH1A3 expression in relation to autocrine TGF-β1 signaling and aggressiveness of human BCSCs.

Abstract
Background: Disintegration of skin tissue can lead to disability and death. Recent studies on wound therapy applied stem cells and adipose derived stem cell conditioned medium (ADSC-CM) to improve wound healing. However, the role of ADSC-CM in wound healing mechanism in terms of angiogenesis, quantity of collagen, and epithelialization is not fully understood. Therefore, this study aimed to analyze the levels of growth factors (VEGF and EGF) in ADSC-CM and histological features of angiogenesis, epithelialization, and collagen density after skin incision in Sprague Dawley rats.Methods: Thirty rats were injured at the back (full thickness wound) and treated topically with ADSC-CM, culture medium, basal medium, and without treatment. Mice were sacrificed on days 3, 7, 14, 21 and 28. After sacrificed, tissue samples were examined microscopically to assess angiogenesis, epithelialization, and collagen density. Concentrations of VEGF and EGF in ADSC-CM were measured by ELISA.Results: Clinically, wound that was treated with ADSC-CM showed improvement in wound healing process. ADSC-CM treated wound showed the highest epithelialization ratio and the fastest wound closure.Conclusion: There were no statistical significant differences between groups that were treated with ADSC-CM and not. However, topical ADSC-CM treated wound revealed a better clinical improvement in epithelialization.

Abstract
Neuropathic pain is a type of chronic pain caused by injury or dysfunction of the nervous system, without effective therapeutic approaches. Mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs), through their paracrine action, have great potential in the treatment of this syndrome. In the present study, the therapeutic potential of MSC-derived conditioned medium (CM) was investigated in a mouse model of neuropathic pain induced by partial sciatic nerve ligation (PSL). PSL mice were treated by endovenous route with bone marrow-derived MSCs (1 × 106), CM, or vehicle. Gabapentin was the reference drug. Twelve hours after administration, neuropathic mice treated with CM exhibited an antinociceptive effect that was maintained throughout the evaluation period. MSCs also induced nonreversed antinociception, while gabapentin induced short-lasting antinociception. The levels of IL-1β, TNF-α, and IL-6 were reduced, while IL-10 was enhanced on sciatic nerve and spinal cord by treatment with CM and MSCs. Preliminary analysis of the CM secretome revealed the presence of growth factors and cytokines likely involved in the antinociception. In conclusion, the CM, similar to injection of live cells, produces a powerful and long-lasting antinociceptive effect on neuropathic pain, which is related with modulatory properties on peripheral and central levels of cytokines involved with the maintenance of this syndrome.

Abstract
Bone tissue engineering is one of the main branches of regenerative medicine. In this field, the use of a scaffold, which supported bone development, in combination with mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs), has promised better outcomes for bone regeneration. In particular, human gingival mesenchymal stem cells (hGMSCs) may present advantages compared to other MSCs, including the easier isolation. However, MSCs’ secretome has attracted much attention for its potential use in tissue regeneration, such as conditioned medium (CM) that contains different soluble factors proved to be useful for the regenerative purposes. In this study, we evaluated the osteogenic capacity of a poly-(lactide) (3D-PLA) scaffold enriched with hGMSCs and hGMSCs derived CM and its ability to regenerate bone defects in rat calvarias. 3D-PLA alone, 3D-PLA + CM or 3D-PLA + hGMSCs with/without CM were implanted in Wistar male rats subjected to calvarial defects. We observed that 3D-PLA scaffold enriched with hGMSCs and CM showed a better osteogenic capacity, being able to repair the calvarial defect as revealed in vivo by morphological evaluation. Moreover, transcriptomic analysis in vitro revealed the upregulation of genes involved in ossification and regulation of ossification in the 3D-PLA + CM + hGMSCs group. All of these results indicate the great osteogenic ability of 3D-PLA + CM + hGMSCs supporting its use in bone regenerative medicine, in particular in the repair of cranial bone defects. Especially, hGMSCs derived CM played a key role in the induction of the osteogenic process and in bone regeneration.

Abstract
Tissue regenerative medicine combines the use of cells, scaffolds, and molecules to repair damaged tissues. Different cell types are employed for musculoskeletal diseases, both differentiated and mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs). In recent years, the hypothesis that cell-based therapy is guided principally by cell-secreted factors has become increasingly popular. The aim of the present literature review was to evaluate preclinical and clinical studies that used conditioned medium (CM), rich in cell-factors, for musculoskeletal regeneration. Thirty-one were in vitro, 12 in vivo studies, 1 was a clinical study, and 2 regarded extracellular vesicles. Both differentiated cells and MSCs produce CM that induces reduction in inflammation and increases synthetic activity. MSC recruitment and differentiation, endothelial cell recruitment and angiogenesis have also been observed. In vivo studies were performed with CM in bone and periodontal defects, arthritis and muscle dystrophy pathologies. The only clinical study was performed with CM from MSCs in patients needing alveolar bone regeneration, showing bone formation and no systemic or local complications. Platelet derived growth factor receptor β, C3a, vascular endothelial growth factor, monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 and -3, interleukin 3 and 6, insulin-like growth factor-I were identified as responsible of cell migration, proliferation, osteogenic differentiation, and angiogenesis. The use of CM could represent a new regenerative treatment in several musculoskeletal pathologies because it overcomes problems associated with the use of cells and avoids the use of exogenous GFs or gene delivery systems. However, some issues remain to be clarified.

Abstract
Objective Although stem cell transplantation has beneficial effects on tissue regeneration, but there are still problems
such as high cost and safety issues. Since stem cell therapy is largely dependent on paracrine activity, in this study,
utilization of transplantation of bone marrow stromal cells (BMSCs)-secretome instead of the cells, into damaged
ovaries was evaluated to overcome the limitations of stem cell transplantation.
Materials and Methods In this experimental study, BMSCs were cultured and 25-fold concentrated conditioned
medium (CM) from BMSCs was prepared. Female rats were injected intraperitoneally with cyclophosphamide (CTX)
for 14 days. Then, BMSCs and CM were individually transplanted into bilateral ovaries, and the ovaries were excised
after four weeks of treatment. The follicle count was performed using hematoxylin and eosin (H&E) staining and the
apoptotic cells were counted using TUNEL assay. Ovarian function was evaluated by monitoring the ability of ovulation
and the levels of serum estradiol (E2) and follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH).
Results Evaluation of the ovarian function and structure showed that results of secretome transplantation were almost
similar to those of BMSCs transplantation and there was no significant differences between them.
Conclusion BMSCs-secretome is likely responsible for the therapeutic paracrine effect of BMSCs. Stem cell-
secretome is expected to overcome the limitations of stem cell transplantation and become the basis of a novel therapy
for ovarian damage.

Abstract
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a major global cause of morbidity and mortality, projected to become the 3rd cause of disease mortality worldwide by 2020. COPD is characterized by persistent and not fully reversible airflow limitation that is usually progressive and is associated with an abnormal chronic inflammatory response of the lung to noxious agents including cigarette smoke. Currently available therapeutic strategies aim to ease COPD symptoms but cannot prevent its progress or regenerate physiological lung structure or function. The urgently needed new approaches for the treatment of COPD include stem cell therapies among which transplantation of mesenchymal stem cells derived from Wharton’s jelly (WJ-MSCs) emerges as a promising therapeutic strategy because of the unique properties of these cells. The present review discusses the main biological properties of WJ-MSCs pertinent to their potential application for the treatment of COPD in the context of COPD pathomechanisms with emphasis on chronic immune inflammatory processes that play key roles in the development and progression of COPD.

Abstract
Cancer as a multistep and complicated disease is regulated by several molecular and cellular events. Cancer treatment could be managed at the early stages when the tumor is confined in the tissue. However, disseminated cancer cells metastasize to other body parts and generate new tumors resulting in mortality. Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are found in different body parts and helps adult tissue regeneration. The role of MSCs in cancer progression has emerged as one of the important aspects in cancer biology and is the aim of interest in recent years. In the current study, effects of Dental Pulp Stem Cells (DPSCs) on PC-3 prostate cancer cell proliferation and migration were conducted by cell proliferation, apoptosis, gene expression and cell migration analysis in vitro. Condition medium (CM) obtained from DPSCs increased cell proliferation of PC-3 cells and decreased apoptosis. Either administration of CM or trans well co-culture of DPSCs increased cell migration in scratch assay, confirmed by gene expression analysis of migratory genes including fibronectin, laminin and collagen type I (Col I). Furthermore, DPSCs participated in a self-organized structure with PC-3 cells in co-culture conditions. Overall, results indicated that DPSCs could promote PC-3 cancer cell proliferation and metastasis in co-culture conditions in vitro.

Abstract
Continuing from our previous study, we hypothesized that combining electrical stimulation (ES) and three-dimensional (3D) culture would be a useful strategy to obtain more bioactive factors in conditioned medium (CM) derived from human mesenchymal stem cells (hMSC). Our aim in this study was to investigate the bone-healing capacity of CM derived from hMSC after 4 days of culture on a collagen sponge-exposed (CM-ES) or unexposed (CM-control; CM-CON) to ES in comparison with that of hMSC implantation. A cytokine assay of both CMs revealed the presence of cytokines, growth factors, and trophic factors. In vitro evaluation of both CMs showed increased cell growth and alkaline phosphatase activity of the hMSC, with little difference between CMs. We investigated the bone-healing effect using two bone disease models: bone defect and inflammatory bone loss. The calvaria defect was implanted with whole CM or 3D-precultured hMSC unexposed to ES. Microcomputed tomography analysis after 4 weeks indicated a twofold greater bone volume in the CM-CON and CM-ES groups than in the hMSC and vehicle groups, though we found no difference between the CM groups. However, CM-ES enhanced the bone healing of interleukin-1-induced bone loss to a level comparable with hMSC, whereas CM-CON did not. These results show that 3D-cultured CM had a greater or similar capacity for bone healing as treatment using hMSC transplantation, and CM-ES was especially effective against inflammatory bone loss. Thus, 3D-cultured CM with or without ES presents an encouraging alternative to MSC-based bone healing. © 2017 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Biomed Mater Res Part A: 106A: 311-320, 2018.

Abstract
Astrocytes perform essential functions in the preservation of neural tissue. For this reason, these cells can respond with changes in gene expression, hypertrophy, and proliferation upon a traumatic brain injury event (TBI). Different therapeutic strategies may be focused on preserving astrocyte functions and favor a non-generalized and non-sustained protective response over time post-injury. A recent strategy has been the use of the conditioned medium of human adipose mesenchymal stem cells (CM-hMSCA) as a therapeutic strategy for the treatment of various neuropathologies. However, although there is a lot of information about its effect on neuronal protection, studies on astrocytes are scarce and its specific action in glial cells is not well explored. In the present study, the effects of CM-hMSCA on human astrocytes subjected to scratch assay were assessed. Our findings indicated that CM-hMSCA improved cell viability, reduced nuclear fragmentation, and preserved mitochondrial membrane potential. These effects were accompanied by morphological changes and an increased polarity index thus reflecting the ability of astrocytes to migrate to the wound stimulated by CM-hMSCA. In conclusion, CM-hMSCA may be considered as a promising therapeutic strategy for the protection of astrocyte function in brain pathologies.

Abstract
Painful neuropathy is one of the complications of diabetes mellitus that adversely affects patients'quality of life. Pharmacological treatments are not fully satisfactory, and novel approaches needed. In a preclinical mouse model of diabetes the effect of both human mesenchymal stromal cells from adipose tissue (hASC) and their conditioned medium (hASC-CM) was evaluated. Diabetes was induced by streptozotocin. After neuropathic hypersensitivity was established, mice were intravenously injected with either 1 × 106 hASC or with CM derived from 2 × 106 hASC. Both hASC and CM (secretome) reversed mechanical, thermal allodynia and thermal hyperalgesia, with a rapid and long lasting effect, maintained up to 12 weeks after treatments. In nerves, dorsal root ganglia and spinal cord of neuropathic mice we determined high IL-1β, IL-6 and TNF-α and low IL-10 levels. Both treatments restored a correct pro/antinflammatory cytokine balance and prevented skin innervation loss. In spleens of streptozotocin-mice, both hASC and hASC-CM re-established Th1/Th2 balance that was shifted to Th1 during diabetes. Blood glucose levels were unaffected although diabetic animals regained weight, and kidney morphology was recovered by treatments. Our data show that hASC and hASC-CM treatments may be promising approaches for diabetic neuropathic pain, and suggest that cell effect is likely mediated by their secretome.

Abstract
The reduced number of circulating stem/progenitor cells that is found in chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients may contribute to impaired angiogenic repair and decreased capillary density in the heart. Cell therapy with bone marrow-derived cells (BMDCs) has been shown to induce positive effects on the microvasculature and cardiac function, most likely due to secretion of growth factors and cytokines, all of which are present in the conditioned medium (CM); however, this is controversial. Here we showed that treatment with BMDC or CM restored vascular density and decreased the extent of fibrosis in a rat model of CKD, the 5/6 nephrectomy. Engraftment and differentiation of exogenous BMDCs could not be detected. Yet CM led to the mobilization and infiltration of endogenous circulating cells into the heart. Cell recruitment was facilitated by the local expression of pro-inflammatory factors such as the macrophage chemoattractant protein-1, interleukin-6, and endothelial adhesion molecules. Consistently, in vitro assays showed that CM increased endothelial adhesiveness to circulating cells by upregulating the expression of adhesion molecules, and stimulated angiogenesis/endothelial tube formation. Overall, our results suggest that both treatments exert vasculoprotective effects on the heart of uremic rats by stimulating endogenous repair mechanisms.

Abstract
Earlier research primarily attributed the effects of mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) therapies to their capacity for local engrafting and differentiating into multiple tissue types. However, recent studies have revealed that implanted cells do not survive for long, and that the benefits of MSC therapy could be due to the vast array of bioactive factors they produce, which play an important role in the regulation of key biologic processes. Secretome derivatives, such as conditioned media or exosomes, may present considerable advantages over cells for manufacturing, storage, handling, product shelf life and their potential as a ready-to-go biologic product. Nevertheless, regulatory requirements for manufacturing and quality control will be necessary to establish the safety and efficacy profile of these products. Among MSCs, human uterine cervical stem cells (hUCESCs) may be a good candidate for obtaining secretome-derived products. hUCESCs are obtained by Pap cervical smear, which is a less invasive and painful method than those used for obtaining other MSCs (for example, from bone marrow or adipose tissue). Moreover, due to easy isolation and a high proliferative rate, it is possible to obtain large amounts of hUCESCs or secretome-derived products for research and clinical use.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Obesity is associated with numerous cardiac complications, including arrhythmias, cardiac fibrosis, remodeling and heart failure. Here we evaluated the therapeutic potential of mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) and their conditioned medium (CM) to treat cardiac complications in a mouse model of high-fat diet (HFD)-induced obesity. METHODS After obesity induction and HFD withdrawal, obese mice were treated with MSCs, CM or vehicle. Cardiac function was assessed using electrocardiography, echocardiography and treadmill test. Body weight and biochemical parameters were evaluated. Cardiac tissue was used for real time (RT)-polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and histopathologic analysis. RESULTS/DISCUSSION Characterization of CM by protein array showed the presence of different cytokines and growth factors, including chemokines, osteopontin, cystatin C, Serpin E1 and Gas 6. HFD-fed mice presented cardiac arrhythmias, altered cardiac gene expression and fibrosis reflected in physical exercise incapacity associated with obesity and diabetes. Administration of MSCs or CM improved arrhythmias and exercise capacity. This functional improvement correlated with normalization of GATA4 gene expression in the hearts of MSC- or CM-treated mice. The gene expression of connexin 43, troponin I, adiponectin, transforming growth factor (TGF) β, peroxisome proliferator activated receptor gamma (PPARγ), insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1), matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP9) and tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinases 1 (TIMP1) were significantly reduced in MSCs, but not in CM-treated mice. Moreover, MSC or CM administration reduced the intensity of cardiac fibrosis. CONCLUSION Our results suggest that MSCs and CM have a recovery effect on cardiac disturbances due to obesity and corroborate to the paracrine action of MSCs in heart disease models.

Conditioned Medium from Malignant Breast Cancer Cells Induces an EMT-Like Phenotype and an Altered N-Glycan Profile in Normal Epithelial MCF10A Cells. Int J Mol Sci 2017; 18:ijms18081528.

Abstract
Epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) is a key process in cancer development and progression. Communication (crosstalk) between cancer cells and normal (nonmalignant) cells may facilitate cancer progression. Conditioned medium (CM) obtained from cultured cancer cells contains secreted factors capable of affecting phenotypes and the behaviors of normal cells. In this study, a culture of normal breast epithelial MCF10A cells with CM from malignant breast cancer cells (termed 231-CM and 453-CM) resulted in an alteration of morphology. CM-treated MCF10A, in comparison with control cells, showed a reduced expression of the epithelial marker E-cadherin, increased expression of the mesenchymal markers fibronectin, vimentin, N-cadherin, and TWIST1, meanwhile cell proliferation and migration were enhanced while cell apoptosis was decreased. N-glycan profiles of 231-CM-treated and control MCF10A cells were compared by MALDI-TOF/TOF-MS (Matrix-Assisted Laser Desorption/ Ionization Time of Flight Mass Spectrometry) and a lectin microarray analysis. The treated cells showed lower levels of high-mannose-type N-glycan structures, and higher levels of complex-type and hybrid-type structures. Altered N-glycan profiles were also detected in 453-CM-treated and non-treated MCF10A cells by MALDI-TOF/TOF-MS, and we found that the expression of five fucosylated N-glycan structures (m/z 1406.663, 1590.471, 1668.782, 2421.141, and 2988.342) and one high-mannose structure m/z 1743.722 have the same pattern as 231-CM-treated MCF10A cells. Our findings, taken together, show that CM derived from breast cancer cells induced an EMT-like process in normal epithelial cells and altered their N-glycan profile.

Abstract
Intraoperative application of the stromal vascular fraction (SVF) of adipose tissue requires a fast and efficient isolation procedure of adipose tissue. This review was performed to systematically assess and compare procedures currently used for the intraoperative isolation of cellular SVF (cSVF) and tissue SVF (tSVF) that still contain the extracellular matrix. Pubmed, EMBASE and the Cochrane central register of controlled trials databases were searched for studies that compare procedures for intraoperative isolation of SVF (searched 28 September 2016). Outcomes of interest were cell yield, viability of cells, composition of SVF, duration, cost and procedure characteristics. Procedures were subdivided into procedures resulting in a cSVF or tSVF. Thirteen out of 3038 studies, evaluating 18 intraoperative isolation procedures, were considered eligible. In general, cSVF and tSVF intraoperative isolation procedures had similar cell yield, cell viability and SVF composition compared to a nonintraoperative (i.e. culture laboratory-based collagenase protocol) control group within the same studies. The majority of intraoperative isolation procedures are less time consuming than nonintraoperative control groups, however. Intraoperative isolation procedures are less time-consuming than nonintraoperative control groups with similar cell yield, viability of cells and composition of SVF, and therefore more suitable for use in the clinic. Nevertheless, none of the intraoperative isolation procedures could be designated as the preferred procedure to isolate SVF. Copyright © 2017 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

Abstract
Background and Objectives Neuroinflammation is involved in the pathogenesis of neurodegenerative disorders. Conditioned medium (CM) derived from bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) revealed substantial benefits due to its rich content of trophic factors. Salidroside (Sal), extracted from Rhodiola rosea, is known for its anti-inflammatory and neuroprotective effects. This study was designed to investigate the effect of Sal pretreated CM (CM-Sal) derived from bone marrow MSCs in lipopolysaccharide (LPS) induced neuroinflammation. Material and Methods Fifty adult male mice were equally divided into 5 groups: Group I (Normal Control), Group II (LPS): single 0.8 mg/kg LPS intraperitoneally; Group III (LPS-DMEM), Group IV (LPS-CM) and Group V (LPS-CM-Sal): LPS was injected as group II followed, 24 hours later, by intranasal injection of 50 μl of filtered serum- free Dulbecco's Modified Eagle's medium (DMEM), CM or CM-Sal, respectively, twice daily for 4 days. Animals were sacrificed at day 6 and paraffin cerebral sections were subjected to Hematoxylin and Eosin staining and immunohistochemistry with caspase 3 (apoptosis), glial fibrillary acidic protein GFAP (astrocytes) and CD68 (active microglia) followed by quantitative morphometric study. Results Examination of LPS and LPS-DMEM groups revealed neuronal apoptosis with reactive astrogliosis and increased active microglia. LPS-CM and LPS-CM-Sal groups showed less apoptosis, less astrocytes and less active microglia. The regression in neuroinflammation was more evident in LPS-CM-Sal group and the difference was statistically significant compared to other groups. Conclusion CM-Sal derived from MSCs culture elicited significant histopathological improvement in LPS induced neuroinflammation which could be used as new therapeutic modality.
