Comparison of the Characteristics of Breast Milk-derived Stem Cells with the Stem Cells Derived from the Other Sources: A Comparative Review. Curr Stem Cell Res Ther 2021; 17:71-90. [PMID: 34161214 DOI: 10.2174/1574888x16666210622125309] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/02/2021] [Revised: 03/14/2021] [Accepted: 03/28/2021] [Indexed: 11/22/2022]
Abstract
Breast milk (BrM) not only supplies nutrition, but it also contains a diverse population of cells. It has been estimated that up to 6% of the cells in human milk possess the characteristics of mesenchymal stem cells (MSC). Available data also indicate that these cells are multipotent and capable of self-renewal and differentiation with other cells. In this review, we have compared different characteristics, such as CD markers, differentiation capacity, and morphology of stem cells, derived from human breast milk (hBr-MSC) with human bone marrow (hBMSC), Wharton's jelly (WJMSC), and human adipose tissue (hADMSC). Through the literature review, it was revealed that human breast milk-derived stem cells specifically express a group of cell surface markers, including CD14, CD31, CD45, and CD86. Importantly, a group of markers, CD13, CD29, CD44, CD105, CD106, CD146, and CD166, were identified, which were common in the four sources of stem cells. WJMSC, hBMSC, hADMSC, and hBr-MSC are potently able to differentiate into the mesoderm, ectoderm, and endoderm cell lineages. The ability of hBr-MSCs todifferentiate into the neural stem cells, neurons, adipocyte, hepatocyte, chondrocyte, osteocyte, and cardiomyocytes has made these cells a promising source of stem cells in regenerative medicine, while isolation of stem cells from the commonly used sources, such as bone marrow, requires invasive procedures. Although autologous breast milk-derived stem cells are an accessible source for women who are in the lactation period, breast milk can be considered as a source of stem cells with high differentiation potential without any ethical concern.

Abstract
Amniotic fluid and breast milk play important roles in structural development throughout fetal growth and infancy. Given their significance in physical maturation, many studies have investigated the therapeutic and protective roles of amniotic fluid and breast milk in neonatal diseases. Of particular interest to researchers are stem cells found in the two fluids. These stem cells have been investigated due to their ability to self-replicate, differentiate, reduce tissue damage, and their expression of pluripotent markers. While amniotic fluid stem cells have received some attention regarding their ability to treat neonatal diseases, breast milk stem cells have not been investigated to the same extent given the recency of their discovery. The purpose of this review is to compare the functions of amniotic fluid, breast milk, and their stem cells to provide a rationale for the use of breast milk stem cells as a therapy for neonatal diseases. Breast milk stem cells present as an important tool for treating neonatal diseases given their ability to reduce inflammation and tissue damage, as well as their multilineage differentiation potential, easy accessibility, and ability to be used in disease modelling.

A novel HPLC column switching method coupled to ICP-MS/QTOF for the first determination of selenoprotein P (SELENOP) in human breast milk. Food Chem 2020; 321:126692. [PMID: 32251923 DOI: 10.1016/j.foodchem.2020.126692] [Citation(s) in RCA: 10] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/19/2019] [Revised: 03/13/2020] [Accepted: 03/23/2020] [Indexed: 01/23/2023]
Abstract
In this work, we describe for the first time the presence of selenoprotein P in human breast milk. To this end, a novel analytical method has been developed based on a two-dimensional column switching system, which consisted of three size exclusion columns and one affinity column coupled to inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS). The method combines the accurate quantification of selenoproteins and selenometabolites by species unspecific isotopic dilution ICP-MS, with unequivocal identification by quadrupole-time-of-flight mass spectrometry. Several selenopeptides, which contain the amino acid selenocysteine (U, SeCys), were identified after tryptic digestion followed by their separation. The results reveal that the relative selenium concentration in colostrum follows the order: glutathione peroxidase (GPX) ≈ selenoprotein P (SELENOP) > selenocystamine (SeCA) > other selenometabolites (SeMB), in contrast with previously published papers (GPX > SeCA > selenocystine > selenomethionine). A mean concentration of 20.1 ± 1.0 ng Se g-1 as SELENOP (1.45 μg SELENOP/g) was determined in colostrum (31% of total selenium).

World J Stem Cells 2019; 11:1005-1019. [PMID: 31768226 PMCID: PMC6851011 DOI: 10.4252/wjsc.v11.i11.1005] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.6] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/03/2019] [Revised: 07/17/2019] [Accepted: 09/04/2019] [Indexed: 02/06/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Mesenchymal stem cells are pluripotent cells that have the ability to generate cells from a cell line or in other cell types from different tissues but from the same origin. Although those cells have more limited differentiation capacity than embryonic stem cells, they are easily obtained from somatic tissue and can be grown in large quantities. This characteristic of undifferentiated stem cells differentiating into different cell lines arouses strategies in regenerative medicine for the treatment of different diseases such as neurodegenerative diseases.
AIM To evaluate the cell differentiation capacity of human breastmilk stem cells for the three germ layers by a systematic review.
METHODS The searched databases were PubMed, EMBASE, OVID, and COCHRANE LIBRARY, published between 2007 and 2018 in the English language. All were in vitro studies for analysis of the "cell differentiation potential" in the literature using the keywords “human breastmilk,” “stem cells,” and keywords combined with the Boolean operator “NOT” were used to exclude those articles that had the word “CANCER” and their respective synonyms, which were previously consulted according to medical subject heading terms. PRISMA 2009 guidelines were followed in this study.
RESULTS A total of 315 titles and abstracts of articles were examined. From these, 21 were in common with more than one database, leaving 294 articles for analysis. Of that total, five publications met the inclusion criteria. When analyzing the publications, it was demonstrated that human breastmilk stem cells have a high cellular plasticity, exhibiting the ability to generate cells of all three germ layers, endoderm, mesoderm, and ectoderm, demonstrating their stemness. Those cells expressed the genes, TRA-1-60/81, octamer-binding transcription factor 4, and NANOG, of which NANOG, a critical regulator for self-renewal and maintenance, was the most highly expressed. Those cells have the ability to differentiate in vitro into adipocytes, chondrocytes, osteocytes, oligodendrocytes, astrocytes, and neurons as well hepatocytes, β-pancreatic cells, and cardiomyocytes.
CONCLUSION Although the literature has been scarce, the pluripotentiality of these cells represents great potential for tissue engineering and cellular therapy. Further studies for safe clinical translation are needed.

[PMID: 30815351 DOI: 10.1007/s13770-018-0163-5] [Citation(s) in RCA: 14] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/01/2018] [Revised: 09/05/2018] [Accepted: 10/03/2018] [Indexed: 12/14/2022] Open
Abstract
Background This study was conducted to investigate the effect of granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) on the mobilization of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) from the bone marrow (BM) into the peripheral blood (PB) in rats. Methods GM-CSF was administered subcutaneously to rats at 50 μg/kg body weight for 5 consecutive days. The BM and PB of rats were collected at 1, 3, and 5 days during the administration for analysis. Results Upon GM-CSF administration, the number of mononuclear cells increased rapidly at day 1 both in the BM and PB. This number decreased gradually over time in the BM to below the initial amount by day 5, but was maintained at a high level in the PB until day 5. The colony-forming unit-fibroblasts were increased in the PB by 10.3-fold at day 5 of GM-CSF administration, but decreased in the BM. Compared to GM-CSF, granulocyte-colony stimulating factor (G-CSF) stimulated lower levels of MSC mobilization from the BM to the PB. Immunohistochemical analysis revealed that GM-CSF induced a hypoxic and proteolytic microenvironment and increased C-X-C chemokine receptor type 4 (CXCR4) expression in the BM. GM-CSF added to BM MSCs in vitro dose-dependently increased CXCR4 expression and cell migration. G-CSF and stromal cell derived factor-1 (SDF-1) showed similar results in these in vitro assays. Know-down of CXCR4 expression with siRNA significantly abolished GM-CSF- and G-CSF-induced MSC migration in vitro, indicating the involvement of the SDF-1-CXCR4 interaction in the mechanism. Conclusion These results suggest that GM-CSF is a useful tool for mobilizing BM MSCs into the PB.
