Abstract
Chemotherapies can cause germ cell depletion and gonadal failure. When injected post-chemotherapy, mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) from various sources have been shown to have regenerative effects in rodent models of chemotherapy-induced gonadal injury. Here, we evaluated two properties of a novel source of MSC, first trimester (FTM) human umbilical cord perivascular cells (HUCPVCs) (with increased regenerative potential compared to older sources), that may render them a promising candidate for chemotherapeutic gonadal injury prevention. Firstly, their ability to resist the cytotoxic effects of cyclophosphamide (CTX) in vitro, as compared to term HUCPVCs and bone marrow cells (BMSCs); and secondly, whether they prevent gonadal dysfunction if delivered prior to gonadotoxic therapy in vivo. BMSC, FTM HUCPVC, term HUCPVC, and control NTERA2 cells were treated with moderate (150 μmol/L) and high (300 μmol/L) doses of CTX in vitro. Viability, proliferative capacity, mesenchymal cell lineage markers and differentiation capacity, immunogenicity, and paracrine gene expression were assessed. CTX was administered to Wistar rats 2 days following an intra-ovarian injection of FTM HUCPVC. HUCPVC survival and ovarian follicle numbers were assessed using histological methods. We conclude that FTM HUCPVC maintain key regenerative properties following chemotherapy exposure and that pre-treatment with these cells may prevent CTX-induced ovarian damage in vivo. Therefore, HUCPVCs are promising candidates for fertility preservation.

Perivascular Stem Cell-Derived Cyclophilin A Improves Uterine Environment with Asherman's Syndrome via HIF1α-Dependent Angiogenesis. Mol Ther 2020; 28:1818-1832.

Abstract
Asherman's syndrome (AS) is characterized by intrauterine adhesions or fibrosis resulting from scarring inside the endometrium. AS is associated with infertility, recurrent miscarriage, and placental abnormalities. Although mesenchymal stem cells show therapeutic promise for the treatment of AS, the molecular mechanisms underlying its pathophysiology remain unclear. We ascertained that mice with AS, like human patients with AS, suffer from extensive fibrosis, oligo/amenorrhea, and infertility. Human perivascular stem cells (hPVSCs) from umbilical cords repaired uterine damage in mice with AS, regardless of their delivery routes. In mice with AS, embryo implantation is aberrantly deferred, which leads to intrauterine growth restriction followed by no delivery at term. hPVSC administration significantly improved implantation defects and subsequent poor pregnancy outcomes via hypoxia inducible factor 1α (HIF1α)-dependent angiogenesis in a dose-dependent manner. Pharmacologic inhibition of HIF1α activity hindered hPVSC actions on pregnancy outcomes, whereas stabilization of HIF1α activity facilitated such actions. Furthermore, therapeutic effects of hPVSCs were not observed in uterine-specific HIF1α-knockout mice with AS. Secretome analyses of hPVSCs identified cyclophilin-A as the major paracrine factor for hPVSC therapy via HIF1α-dependent angiogenesis. Collectively, we demonstrate that hPVSCs-derived cyclophilin-A facilitates HIF1α-dependent angiogenesis to ameliorate compromised uterine environments in mice with AS, representing the major pathophysiologic features of humans with AS.

Abstract
In this study we used two different techniques in order to isolate pericytes from the wall of human umbilical cord vein and get two different groups of cells were named as "pellet and primer cells". These groups were compared with each other according to their morphologies and stem cell marker expressions. Also, these two different populations were compared with each other and with human bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BM-MSCs) according to their transcriptomic profiles. Then, pellet cells proteomic profiles were determined. Our results showed that morphologies and cell surface marker expressions of pellet cells and primer cells are similar. On the other hand, according to immunofluorescence staining results, in contrast to primer cells, pellet cells showed positive NG2 and PDGFR-β staining. As a result of gene expression profiling, pellet cells have upregulated genes related with muscle, neural and immune cell differentiation, development and pluripotency. On the other hand, primer cells have upregulated adhesion pathway-related genes. In addition to differences between pellet and primer cells, the gene expression profiles of these cell groups are also different from BM-MSCs. The results of transcriptome and proteome analysis of pellet cells were in consistent with each other.

Abstract
Multilineage-differentiating stress-enduring (Muse) cells are a population of pluripotent stage-specific embryonic antigen 3 (SSEA3)+ mesenchymal stem cells first described by Mari Dezawa in 2010. Although some investigators have reported SSEA3+ mesenchymal cells in umbilical cord tissues, none have quantitatively compared SSEA3+ cells isolated from Wharton’s jelly (WJ) and the cord lining (CL) of human umbilical cords (HUCs). We separated WJ and the CL from HUCs, cultured mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) isolated from these two tissues with collagenase, and quantified the percentage of SSEA3+ cells over three passages. The first passage had 5.0% ± 4.3% and 5.3% ± 5.1% SSEA3+ cells from WJ and the CL, respectively, but the percentage of SSEA3+ cells decreased significantly (P < 0.05) between P0 and P2 in the CL group and between P0 and P1 in the WJ group. Magnetic-activated cell sorting (MACS) markedly enriched SSEA3+ cells to 91.4% ± 3.2%. Upon culture of the sorted population, we found that the SSEA3+ percentage ranged from 62.5% to 76.0% in P2–P5 and then declined to 42.0%–54.7% between P6 and P9. At P10, the cultures contained 37.4% SSEA3+ cells. After P10, we resorted the cells and achieved 89.4% SSEA3+ cells in culture. The procedure for MACS-based enrichment of SSEA3+ cells, followed by expansion in culture and a re-enrichment step, allows the isolation of many millions of SSEA3+ cells in relatively pure culture. When cultured, the sorted SSEA3+ cells differentiated into embryoid spheres and survived 4 weeks after transplant into a contused Sprague-Dawley rat spinal cord. The transplanted SSEA3+ cells migrated into the injury area from four injection points around the contusion site and did not produce any tumors. The umbilical cord is an excellent source of fetal Muse cells, and our method allows the practical and efficient isolation and expansion of relatively pure populations of SSEA3+ Muse cells that can be matched by human leukocyte antigen for transplantation in human trials.

Abstract
Small-diameter vascular grafts are needed for the treatment of coronary artery diseases in the case of limited accessibility of the autologous vessels. Synthetic scaffolds have many disadvantages so in recent years vascular constructs (VCs) made from cellularized natural scaffolds was seen to be very promising but number of studies comprising this area is very limited. In our study, our aim is to generate fully natural triple-layered VC that constitutes all the layers of blood vessel with vascular cells. CD146+ perivascular cells (PCs) were isolated from human umbilical cord vein (HUCV) and differentiated into smooth muscle cells (SMCs) and fibroblasts. They were then combined with collagen type I/elastin/dermatan sulfate and collagen type I/fibrin to form tunica media and tunica adventitia respectively. HUCV endothelial cells (ECs) were seeded on the construct by cell sheet engineering method after fibronectin and heparin coating. Characterization of the VC was performed by immunolabeling, histochemical staining and electron microscopy (SEM and TEM). Differentiated cells were identified by means of immunofluorescent (IF) labeling. SEM and TEM analysis of VCs revealed the presence of three histologic tunicae. Collagen and elastic fibers were observed within the ECM by histochemical staining. The vascular endothelial growth factor receptor expressing ECs in tunica intima; α-SMA expressing SMCs in tunica media and; the tenascin expressing fibroblasts in tunica adventitia were detected by IF labeling. In conclusion, by combining natural scaffolds and vascular cells differentiated from CD146+ PCs, VCs can be generated layer by layer. This study will provide a preliminary blood vessel model for generation of fully natural small-diameter vascular grafts.

Abstract
Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM), one of the common metabolic disorders of pregnancy, leads to functional alterations in various cells including stem cells as well as some abnormalities in fetal development. Perivascular stem cells (PVCs) have gained more attention in recent years, for the treatment of various diseases. However, the effect of GDM on PVC function has not been investigated. In our study, we isolated PVCs from umbilical cord of normal pregnant women and GDM patients and compared their phenotypes and function. There is no significant difference in phenotypic expression, response to bFGF exposure and adipogenic differentiation capacity between normal (N)-PVCs and GDM-PVCs. However, when compared with N-PVCs, early passage GDM-PVCs displayed decreased initial rates of cell yield and proliferation as well as a reduced ability to promote wound closure. These results suggest that maternal metabolic dysregulation during gestation can alter the function of endogenous multipotent stem cells, which may impact their therapeutic effectiveness.

Abstract
Potassium channels, the largest group of pore proteins, selectively regulate the flow of potassium (K+) ions across cell membranes. The activity and expression of K+ channels are critical for the maintenance of normal functions in vessels and neurons, and for the regulation of cell differentiation and maturation. However, their role and expression in stem cells have been poorly understood. In this study, we isolated perivascular stem cells (PVCs) from human umbilical cords and investigated the expression patterns of big-conductance Ca2+-activated K+ (BKCa) and voltage-dependent K+ (Kv) channels using the reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction. We also examined the effect of high glucose (HG, 25 mM) on expression levels of BKCa and Kv channels in PVCs. KCa1.1, KCaβ3, Kv1.3, Kv3.2, and Kv6.1 were detected in undifferentiated PVCs. In addition, HG treatment increased the amounts of BKCaβ3a, BKCaβ4, Kv1.3, Kv1.6, and Kv6.1 transcripts. These results suggested that ion channels may have important functions in the growth and differentiation of PVCs, which could be influenced by HG exposure.

Abstract
Understanding the crosstalk mechanisms between perivascular cells (PVCs) and cancer cells might be beneficial in preventing cancer development and metastasis. In this study, we investigated the paracrine influence of PVCs derived from human umbilical cords on the proliferation of lung adenocarcinoma epithelial cells (A549) and erythroleukemia cells (TF-1α and K562) in vitro using Transwell® co-culture systems. PVCs promoted the proliferation of A549 cells without inducing morphological changes, but had no effect on the proliferation of TF-1α and K562 cells. To identify the factors secreted from PVCs, conditioned media harvested from PVC cultures were analyzed by antibody arrays. We identified a set of cytokines, including persephin (PSPN), a neurotrophic factor, and a key regulator of oral squamous cell carcinoma progression. Supplementation with PSPN significantly increased the proliferation of A549 cells. These results suggested that PVCs produced a differential effect on the proliferation of cancer cells in a cell-type dependent manner. Further, secretome analyses of PVCs and the elucidation of the molecular mechanisms could facilitate the discovery of therapeutic target(s) for lung cancer.
