Abstract
As a vital energy source for cellular metabolism and tissue survival, the mitochondrion can undergo morphological or positional change and even shuttle between cells in response to various stimuli and energy demands. Multiple human diseases are originated from mitochondrial dysfunction, but the curative succusses by traditional treatments are limited. Mitochondrial transplantation therapy (MTT) is an innovative therapeutic approach that is to deliver the healthy mitochondria either derived from normal cells or reassembled through synthetic biology into the cells and tissues suffering from mitochondrial damages and finally replace their defective mitochondria and restore their function. MTT has already been under investigation in clinical trials for cardiac ischemia-reperfusion injury and given an encouraging performance in animal models of numerous fatal critical diseases including central nervous system disorders, cardiovascular diseases, inflammatory conditions, cancer, renal injury, and pulmonary damage. This review article summarizes the mechanisms and strategies of mitochondrial transfer and the MTT application for types of mitochondrial diseases, and discusses the potential challenge in MTT clinical application, aiming to exhibit the good therapeutic prospects of MTTs in clinics.

Abstract
Parkinson's disease (PD) is currently the second most incurable central neurodegenerative disease resulting from various pathogenesis. As the "energy factory" of cells, mitochondria play an extremely important role in supporting neuronal signal transmission and other physiological activities. Mitochondrial dysfunction can cause and accelerate the occurrence and progression of PD. How to effectively prevent and suppress mitochondrial disorders is a key strategy for the treatment of PD from the root. Therefore, the emerging mitochondria-targeted therapy has attracted considerable interest. Herein, the relationship between mitochondrial dysfunction and PD, the causes and results of mitochondrial dysfunction, and major strategies for ameliorating mitochondrial dysfunction to treat PD are systematically reviewed. The study also prospects the main challenges for the treatment of PD.

Abstract
Peripheral nerve injuries (PNI) can lead to mitochondrial dysfunction and energy depletion within the affected microenvironment. The objective is to investigate the potential of transplanting mitochondria to reshape the neural regeneration microenvironment. High-purity functional mitochondria with an intact structure are extracted from human umbilical cord-derived mesenchymal stem cells (hUCMSCs) using the Dounce homogenization combined with ultracentrifugation. Results show that when hUCMSC-derived mitochondria (hUCMSC-Mitos) are cocultured with Schwann cells (SCs), they promote the proliferation, migration, and respiratory capacity of SCs. Acellular nerve allografts (ANAs) have shown promise in nerve regeneration, however, their therapeutic effect is not satisfactory enough. The incorporation of hUCMSC-Mitos within ANAs has the potential to remodel the regenerative microenvironment. This approach demonstrates satisfactory outcomes in terms of tissue regeneration and functional recovery. Particularly, the use of metabolomics and bioenergetic profiling is used for the first time to analyze the energy metabolism microenvironment after PNI. This remodeling occurs through the enhancement of the tricarboxylic acid cycle and the regulation of associated metabolites, resulting in increased energy synthesis. Overall, the hUCMSC-Mito-loaded ANAs exhibit high functionality to promote nerve regeneration, providing a novel regenerative strategy based on improving energy metabolism for neural repair.

PLoS One 2023; 18:e0295076. [PMID: 38051739 DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0295076] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/19/2023] [Accepted: 11/15/2023] [Indexed: 12/07/2023] Open
Abstract
Mesenchymal stromal/stem cell derived-extracellular vesicles (MSC-EVs) have gained interest as drug delivery nanoparticles, having immunoregulatory and potentiating tissue repair property. To maintain growth of MSCs and obtain pure MSC-derived EVs, the culture media should contain fetal bovine serum (FBS) devoid of EVs, as the presence of FBS EVs confounds the properties of MSC-EVs. Therefore, we tested three methods: 18h ultracentrifugation (UC) and ultrafiltration (UF), which are common FBS EV depletion methods in current MSC-EV research, and polyethylene glycol (PEG) precipitation to obtain three EV depleted FBS (EVdFBS) batches, and compared them to FBS and commercial (Com) EVdFBS on human adipose stem cell (hADSC) growth, differentiation, enrichment of EVs in hADSC supernatant and their biological function on collagen metabolism. Our comparative study showed UC and UF vary in terms of depletion efficiency and do not completely deplete EVs and affects the growth-promoting quality of FBS. Specifically, FBS EV depletion was comparable between PEG (95.6%) and UF (96.6%) but less by UC (82%), as compared to FBS. FBS protein loss was markedly different among PEG (47%), UF (87%), and UC (51%), implying the ratio of EV depletion over protein loss was PEG (2.03), UF (1.11), and UC (1.61). A significant decrease of TGFβ/Smad signaling, involving in MSC growth and physiology, was observed by UF. After 96 hours of exposure to 5% FBS or 5% four different EVdFBS cell growth media, the osteogenesis ability of hADSCs was not impaired but slightly lower mRNA expression level of Col2a observed in EVdFBS media during chondrogenesis. In consistent with low confluency of hADSCs observed by optical microscope, cell proliferation in response to 5% UF EVdFBS media was inhibited significantly. Importantly, more and purer ADSCs EVs were obtained from ADSCs cultured in 5% PEG EVdFBS media, and they retained bioactive as they upregulated the expression of Col1a1, TIMP1 of human knee synovial fibroblast. Taken together, this study showed that PEG precipitation is the most efficient method to obtain EV depleted FBS for growth of MSCs, and to obtain MSC EVs with minimal FBS EV contamination.

Abstract
The objective of this study is to confirm the methodological feasibility of cationized gelatin nanospheres (cGNS) to enhance the internalization efficiency of mitochondria (Mt) isolated to cells for their increasing functions. The cGNS were simply associated on the surface of Mt by the electrostatic interaction. Different sizes of cGNS were used to allow Mt to associate on the Mt surface (Mt-cGNS). As a control, cationized gelatin (cG) was used to modify the Mt surface (Mt-cG). The Mt-cG and Mt-cGNS prepared were cultured with H9c2 cells to examine their internalization. The internalization efficiency significantly increased by utilizing cGNS. However, there was no significant difference in the internalization efficiency among cGNS with different sizes. After incubation of Mt, Mt-cG, and Mt-cGNS, the superoxide amount and ATP generation were evaluated. Significantly lower superoxide amount and higher ATP amount were observed for the Mt-cGNS group compared with those of non-modified Mt group. It is conceivable that cGNS enhance the cellular internalization of Mt, leading to an improve mitochondrial functions in the recipient cells. In conclusion, cGNS are promising to improve the efficacy in mitochondria internalization.

Obesity drives adipose-derived stem cells into a senescent and dysfunctional phenotype associated with P38MAPK/NF-KB axis. Immun Ageing 2023; 20:51.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Adipose-derived stem cells (ADSC) are multipotent cells implicated in tissue homeostasis. Obesity represents a chronic inflammatory disease associated with metabolic dysfunction and age-related mechanisms, with progressive accumulation of senescent cells and compromised ADSC function. In this study, we aimed to explore mechanisms associated with the inflammatory environment present in obesity in modulating ADSC to a senescent phenotype. We evaluated phenotypic and functional alterations through 18 days of treatment. ADSC were cultivated with a conditioned medium supplemented with a pool of plasma from eutrophic individuals (PE, n = 15) or with obesity (PO, n = 14), and compared to the control. RESULTS Our results showed that PO-treated ADSC exhibited decreased proliferative capacity with G2/M cycle arrest and CDKN1A (p21WAF1/Cip1) up-regulation. We also observed increased senescence-associated β-galactosidase (SA-β-gal) activity, which was positively correlated with TRF1 protein expression. After 18 days, ADSC treated with PO showed augmented CDKN2A (p16INK4A) expression, which was accompanied by a cumulative nuclear enlargement. After 10 days, ADSC treated with PO showed an increase in NF-κB phosphorylation, while PE and PO showed an increase in p38MAPK activation. PE and PO treatment also induced an increase in senescence-associated secretory phenotype (SASP) cytokines IL-6 and IL-8. PO-treated cells exhibited decreased metabolic activity, reduced oxygen consumption related to basal respiration, increased mitochondrial depolarization and biomass, and mitochondrial network remodeling, with no superoxide overproduction. Finally, we observed an accumulation of lipid droplets in PO-treated ADSC, implying an adaptive cellular mechanism induced by the obesogenic stimuli. CONCLUSIONS Taken together, our data suggest that the inflammatory environment observed in obesity induces a senescent phenotype associated with p38MAPK/NF-κB axis, which stimulates and amplifies the SASP and is associated with impaired mitochondrial homeostasis.

Abstract
The use of exogenous mitochondria to replenish damaged mitochondria has been proposed as a strategy for the treatment of pulmonary fibrosis. However, the success of this strategy is partially restricted by the difficulty of supplying sufficient mitochondria to diseased cells. Herein, we report the generation of high-powered mesenchymal stem cells with promoted mitochondrial biogenesis and facilitated mitochondrial transfer to injured lung cells by the sequential treatment of pioglitazone and iron oxide nanoparticles. This highly efficient mitochondrial transfer is shown to not only restore mitochondrial homeostasis but also reactivate inhibited mitophagy, consequently recovering impaired cellular functions. We perform studies in mouse to show that these high-powered mesenchymal stem cells successfully mitigate fibrotic progression in a progressive fibrosis model, which was further verified in a humanized multicellular lung spheroid model. The present findings provide a potential strategy to overcome the current limitations in mitochondrial replenishment therapy, thereby promoting therapeutic applications for fibrotic intervention.

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