Abstract
Cerebral small vessel disease (CSVD), as the most common, chronic and progressive vascular disease on the brain, is a serious neurological disease, whose pathogenesis remains unclear. The disease is a leading cause of stroke and vascular cognitive impairment and dementia, and contributes to about 20% of strokes, including 25% of ischemic strokes and 45% of dementias. Undoubtedly, the high incidence and poor prognosis of CSVD have brought a heavy economic and medical burden to society. The present treatment of CSVD focuses on the management of vascular risk factors. Although vascular risk factors may be important causes or accelerators of CSVD and should always be treated in accordance with best clinical practice, controlling risk factors alone could not curb the progression of CSVD brain injury. Therefore, developing safer and more effective treatment strategies for CSVD is urgently needed. Recently, mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) therapy has become an emerging therapeutic modality for the treatment of central nervous system disease, given their paracrine properties and immunoregulatory. Herein, we discussed the therapeutic potential of MSCs for CSVD, aiming to enable clinicians and researchers to understand of recent progress and future directions in the field.

Abstract
Chronic wounds with high disability are among the most common and serious complications of diabetes. Angiogenesis dysfunction impair wound healing in patients with diabetes. Compared with traditional therapies that can only provide symptomatic treatment, stem cells-owing to their powerful paracrine properties, can alleviate the pathogenesis of chronic diabetic wounds and even cure them. Exosome-derived microRNAs (miRNAs), important components of stem cell paracrine signaling, have been reported for therapeutic use in various disease models, including diabetic wounds. Exosome-derived miRNAs have been widely reported to be involved in regulating vascular function and have promising applications in the repair and regeneration of skin wounds. Therefore, this article aims to review the current status of the pathophysiology of exosome-derived miRNAs in the diabetes-induced impairment of wound healing, along with current knowledge of the underlying mechanisms, emphasizing the regulatory mechanism of angiogenesis, we hope to document the emerging theoretical basis for improving wound repair by restoring angiogenesis in diabetes.

Abstract
Muscle satellite cells (SCs) are stem cells and the main players in skeletal muscle reconstruction. Since satellite cells are located near or in direct contact with blood vessels their niche is formed, inter alia, by endothelial cells. The cross-talk between satellite cells and endothelial cells determines quiescence or proliferation of these cells. However, little is known about the role of miRNA in these interactions. In the present study we identified miRNA that were up-regulated in SC-derived myoblasts treated with stromal derived factor-1 (SDF-1) and/or down-regulated in cells in which the expression of CXCR4 or CXCR7, that is, SDF-1 receptors, was silenced. SDF-1 is one of the important regulators of cell migration, mobilization, skeletal muscle regeneration, and angiogenesis. We hypothesized that selected miRNAs affect SC-derived myoblast fate and interactions with endothelial cells. We showed that miR-126a-3p inhibited both, myoblast migration and fusion. Moreover, the levels of Cxcl12, encoding SDF-1 and Ackr3, encoding CXCR7, were reduced by miR-126a-3p mimic. Interestingly, the miR-126a-3p mimic significantly decreased the level of numerous factors involved in myogenesis and the miR-126a-5p mimic increased the level of Vefga. Importantly, the treatment of endothelial cells with medium conditioned by miR-126-5p mimic transfected SC-derived myoblasts promoted tubulogenesis.

Abstract
Objective Vascular endothelial growth factors (VEGFs, including VEGF-A, VEGF-B, VEGF-C, VEGF-D and PLGF) have important roles in the development and function of the peripheral nervous system. Studies have confirmed that VEGFs, especially VEGF-A (so called VEGF) may be associated with the diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN) process. However, different studies have shown inconsistent levels of VEGFs in DPN patients. Therefore, we conducted this meta-analysis to evaluate the relationship between cycling levels of VEGFs and DPN. Methods This study searched 7 databases, including PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI), VIP Database, WanFang Database, and Chinese Biomedical Literature (CBM), to find the target researches. The random effects model was used to calculate the overall effect. Results 14 studies with 1983 participants were included, among which 13 studies were about VEGF and 1 was VEGF-B, so only the effects of VEGF were pooled. The result showed that there were obviously increased VEGF levels in DPN patients compared with diabetic patients without DPN (SMD:2.12[1.34, 2.90], p<0.00001) and healthy people (SMD:3.50[2.24, 4.75], p<0.00001). In addition, increased circulating VEGF levels were not associated with an increased risk of DPN (OR:1.02[0.99, 1.05], p<0.00001). Conclusion Compared with healthy people and diabetic patients without DPN, VEGF content in the peripheral blood of DPN patients is increased, but current evidence does not support the correlation between VEGF levels and the risk of DPN. This suggests that VEGF may play a role in the pathogenesis and repairment of DPN.

Abstract
Background Lower limb peripheral artery disease (PAD) is the main risk of diabetes mellitus which result to high mortality rate. Approximately, 50% of patients who receive several treatments have passed away or lost limbs at a year's follow-up. Secretome of hypoxia mesenchymal stem cells (S-MSCs) contains several active soluble molecules from hypoxia MSCs (H-MSCs) that capable inducing anti-inflammatory and vascular regeneration in PAD. Objective In this study, we investigated the therapeutic potential of S-MSCs in improving dynamic function and angiogenesis of PAD diabetic rats. Methods The PAD was established by the incision from the groin to the inner thigh and distal ligation of femoral arteries in rats with diabetes. Rats were administered with 200 µL and 400 µL S-MSCs that successfully filtrated using tangential flow filtration (TFF) system based on various molecular weight cut-off categories intravenously. ELISA assay was used to analyze the cytokines and growth factors contained in S-MSCs. Tarlov score were examined at day 1, 3, 5, 7, 10 and 14. The rats were sacrificed at day 14 and muscle tissues were collected for immunohistochemistry (IHC) and gene expression analysis. Results ELISA assay showed that S-MSCs provides abundant level of VEGF, PDGF, bFGF, IL-10 and TGFβ. In vivo administration of S-MSCs remarkably enhanced the Tarlov score. S-MSCs improved angiogenesis through enhancing VEGF gene expression and significantly increasing CD31 positive area in muscle tissue of PAD diabetic rats. Conclusion Our findings suggest that S-MSCs could improves dynamic function and angiogenesis in PAD diabetic rats.

Nanoceria-GO-intercalated multicellular spheroids revascularize and salvage critical ischemic limbs through anti-apoptotic and pro-angiogenic functions. Biomaterials 2023; 292:121914.

Abstract
Critical limb ischemia (CLI) is a serious form of peripheral arterial disease that involves severe blockage of blood flow in lower extremities, often leading to foot necrosis and limb loss. Lack of blood flow and high pro-inflammation with overproduced reactive oxygen species (ROS) in CLI aggravate the degenerative events. Among other therapies, cell delivery is considered potential for restoring regenerative capacity, and preservation of cell survival under high oxidative stress has been challenging and prerequisite to harness cellular functions. Here, we introduce a multicellular delivery system that is intercalated with nanoceria-decorated graphene oxide (CeGO), which is considered to have high ROS scavenging ability while providing cell-matrix interaction signals. The CeGO nano-microsheets (8-nm-nanoceria/0.9-μm-GO) incorporated in HUVEC/MSC (7/3) could form cell-material hybrid spheroids mediated by cellular contraction. Under in vitro oxidative-stress-challenge with H2O2, the CeGO-intercalation enhanced the survival and anti-apoptotic capacity of cellular spheroids. Pro-angiogenic events of cellular spheroids, including cell sprouting and expression of angiogenic markers (HIF1α, VEGF, FGF2, eNOS) were significantly enhanced by the CeGO-intercalation. Proteomics analysis also confirmed substantial up-regulation of a series of angiogenesis-related secretome molecules. Such pro-angiogenic events with CeGO-intercalation were proven to be mediated by the APE/Ref-1 signaling pathway. When delivered to ischemic hindlimb in mice, the CeGO-cell spheroids could inhibit the accumulation of in vivo ROS rapidly, preserving high cell survival rate (cells were more proliferative and less apoptotic vs. those in cell-only spheroids), and up-regulated angiogenic molecular expressions. Monitoring over 28 days revealed significantly enhanced blood reperfusion and tissue recovery, and an ultimate limb salvage with the CeGO-cell delivery (∼60% salvaged vs. ∼29% in cell-only delivery vs. 0% in ischemia control). Together, the CeGO intercalated in HUVEC/MSC delivery is considered a potential nano-microplatform for CLI treatment, by scavenging excessive ROS and enhancing transplanted cell survival, while stimulating angiogenic events, which collectively help revascularization and tissue recovery, salvaging critical ischemic limbs.

Abstract
A growing body of evidence indicates a crucial role of miRNA regulatory function in a variety of mechanisms that contribute to the development of diseases. In our previous work, alterations in miRNA expression levels and targeted genes were shown in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) from patients with lower extremity artery disease (LEAD), abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA), and chronic venous disease (CVD) in comparison with healthy controls. In this paper, previously obtained miRNA expression profiles were compared between the LEAD, AAA, and CVD groups to find either similarities or differences within the studied diseases. Differentially expressed miRNAs were identified using the DESeq2 method implemented in the R programming software. Pairwise comparisons (LEAD vs. AAA, LEAD vs. CVD, and AAA vs. CVD) were performed and revealed 10, 8, and 17 differentially expressed miRNA transcripts, respectively. The functional analysis of the obtained miRNAs was conducted using the miRNet 2.0 online tool and disclosed associations with inflammation and cellular differentiation, motility, and death. The miRNet 2.0 tool was also used to identify regulatory interactions between dysregulated miRNAs and target genes in patients with LEAD, AAA, and CVD. The presented research provides new information about similarities and differences in the miRNA-dependent regulatory mechanisms involved in the pathogenesis of LEAD, AAA, and CVD.
