Abstract
Utilizing adipose tissue and adipose-derived stem cells (ADSCs) turned into a promising field of allograft in recent years. The therapeutic potential of adipose tissue and ADSCs is governed by their molecular secretions, ability to sustain multi-differentiation and self-renewal which are pivotal in reconstructive, genetic diseases, and cosmetic goals. However, revisiting the existing functional capacity of adipose tissue and ADSCs and their intricate relationship with allograft is crucial to figure out the remarkable question of safety to use in allograft due to the growing evidence of interactions between tumor microenvironment and ADSCs. For instance, the molecular secretions of adipose tissue and ADSCs induce angiogenesis, create growth factors, and control the inflammatory response; it has now been well determined. Though the existing preclinical allograft studies gave positive feedback, ADSCs and adipose tissue are attracted by some factors of tumor stroma. Moreover, allorecognition is pivotal to allograft rejection which is carried out by costimulation in a complement-dependent way and leads to the destruction of the donor cells. However, extensive preclinical trials of adipose tissue and ADSCs in allograft at molecular level are still limited. Hence, comprehensive immunomodulatory analysis could ensure the successful allograft of adipose tissue and ADSCs avoiding the oncological risk.

[PMID: 36184343 DOI: 10.1016/j.transproceed.2022.06.007] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/12/2022] [Revised: 05/09/2022] [Accepted: 06/16/2022] [Indexed: 10/14/2022]
Abstract
Adipose-derived stem cells (ASCs) have demonstrated immunomodulatory and anti-inflammatory effects in preclinical studies. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effects of ASCs on the survival of xenogeneic full-thickness skin grafts and compare intravenous and subcutaneous injections of ASCs. We divided 30 male C57BL/6 mice into control, intravenous (IV), and subcutaneous (SC) injection groups. In one group of 10 mice, mouse ASCs were intravenously injected after human full-thickness skin grafting (IV group). In another group of 10 mice, ASCs were directly injected into the subcutaneous plane under the xenogeneic grafts (SC group). An additional group of 10 mice received no treatment and served as controls. Bioluminescent imaging showed that ASCs were concentrated at the grafts during the study period in both IV and SC groups. We performed graft survival assessment, histologic examination, and immunohistochemistry analysis. ASCs significantly prolonged xenograft survival at postoperative week 2 in the SC group compared with the control group (P < .05). Histologic evaluation revealed fewer inflammatory reactions in the SC group than in the control group at 1 week posttransplantation. In addition, we observed relative reduction in CD4- and CD8-positive cells in the SC group compared with the control group. Intravenous injection of ASCs led to increased graft survival and decreased inflammatory reactions, but these differences were not statistically significant. The results of this study indicate that subcutaneous injection of ASCs promoted the survival of xenogeneic full-thickness skin grafts in mice. The underlying mechanisms of the immunosuppressive effects of ASCs should be further investigated.

Abstract
Skin is a multilayer organ consisting of several tissues and appendages residing in a complex niche. Adequate and physiologically regulated vascularization is an absolute requirement for skin homeostasis, regeneration, and wound healing. The lack of vascular networks and ischemia results in delayed wound closure. In addition, vascularization is critical for the prolonged function and survival of skin grafts and tissue-engineered skin substitutes. This study highlights the clinical challenges associated with the limited vascularization in the cutaneous wounds. Then, we highlight the novel approaches for the development of vascular networks in the skin autografts, allografts, and artificial substitutes. Also, the future directions to overcome the existing vascularization complications in skin grafting and synthetic skin substitutes are presented. Statement of Significance Delayed closure of large dermal wounds, such as burn injuries, results from the lack of vascular networks and ischemia. The amount of blood supply in the skin graft is the primary factor determining the quality of the transplanted grafts. The current skin grafts and their fabrication methods lack the appropriate features that contribute to the vascularization and integration of the wound bed and graft and adherence to the skin layers. Therefore, the new generation of skin grafts should consider advanced technologies to induce vascularization and overcome current challenges.
