Abstract
Ultraviolet radiation is the primary determinant for vitamin D synthesis. Sunlight is inefficient and poses a risk, particularly for long-term exposure. In this study, we screened the most favorable wavelength for vitamin D synthesis among four types of narrowband light-emitting diodes (LEDs) and then irradiated osteoporosis rats with the optimal wavelength for 3-12 months. The 297 nm narrowband LED was the most efficient. Long-term radiation increased vitamin D levels in all osteoporotic rats and improved bone health. No skin damage was observed during irradiation. Our findings provide an efficient and safe method of vitamin D supplementation.

Lasers Med Sci 2022; 37:3509-3516.

Abstract
Low-level laser therapy (LLLT) also known as photobiomodulation is a treatment to change cellular biological activity. The exact effects of LLLT remain unclear due to the different irradiation protocols. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of LLLT by three different irradiation methods on the proliferation and osteogenic differentiation of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) in vitro. BMSCs were inoculated in 24-well plates and then irradiated or not (control) with a laser using three different irradiation methods. The irradiation methods were spot irradiation, covering irradiation, and scanning irradiation according to different spot areas (0.07 cm2 or 1.96 cm2) and irradiation areas (0.35 cm2 or 1.96 cm2), respectively. The laser was applied three times at energy densities of 4 J/cm2. The cell proliferation by CCK-8. ALP activity assay, alizarin red, and quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) were performed to assess osteogenic differentiation and mineralization. Increases in cell proliferation was obvious following irradiation, especially for covering irradiation. The ALP activity was significantly increased in irradiated groups compared with non-irradiated control. The level of mineralization was obviously improved following irradiation, particularly for covering irradiation. RT-PCR detected significantly higher expression of ALP, OPN, OCN, and RUNX-2 in the group covering than in the others, and control is the lowest. The presented results indicate that the biostimulative effects of LLLT on BMSCs was influenced by t he irradiation method, and the covering irradiation is more favorable method to promote the proliferation and osteogenic differentiation of BMSCs.

Insight in Hypoxia-Mimetic Agents as Potential Tools for Mesenchymal Stem Cell Priming in Regenerative Medicine. Stem Cells Int 2022; 2022:8775591. [PMID: 35378955 PMCID: PMC8976669 DOI: 10.1155/2022/8775591] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/26/2021] [Revised: 02/28/2022] [Accepted: 03/09/2022] [Indexed: 12/13/2022] Open
Abstract
Hypoxia-mimetic agents are new potential tools in MSC priming instead of hypoxia incubators or chambers. Several pharmaceutical/chemical hypoxia-mimetic agents can be used to induce hypoxia in the tissues: deferoxamine (DFO), dimethyloxaloylglycine (DMOG), 2,4-dinitrophenol (DNP), cobalt chloride (CoCl2), and isoflurane (ISO). Hypoxia-mimetic agents can increase cell proliferation, preserve or enhance differentiation potential, increase migration potential, and induce neovascularization in a concentration- and stem cell source-dependent manner. Moreover, hypoxia-mimetic agents may increase HIF-1α, changing the metabolism and enhancing glycolysis like hypoxia. So, there is clear evidence that treatment with hypoxia-mimetic agents is beneficial in regenerative medicine, preserving stem cell capacities. These agents are not studied so wildly as hypoxia but, considering the low cost and ease of use, are believed to find application as pretreatment of many diseases such as ischemic heart disease and myocardial fibrosis and promote cardiac and cartilage regeneration. The knowledge of MSC priming is critical in evaluating safety procedures and use in clinics. In this review, similarities and differences between hypoxia and hypoxia-mimetic agents in terms of their therapeutic efficiency are considered in detail. The advantages, challenges, and future perspectives in MSC priming with hypoxia mimetic agents are also discussed.
