Abstract
Apoptosis inhibitor of macrophage (AIM) is known to induce apoptosis resistance in macrophages and to exacerbate chronic inflammation, leading to arteriosclerosis. The role of AIM in aortic aneurysm (AA) remains unknown. This study examined the effects of an anti-AIM antibody in preventing AA formation and progression. In apolipoprotein E-deficient mice, AA was induced by subcutaneous angiotensin II infusion. Mice were randomly divided into two groups: (i) AIM group; weekly anti-murine AIM monoclonal antibody injection (n = 10), and (ii) IgG group; anti-murine IgG antibody injection as control (n = 14). The AIM group, compared with the IgG group, exhibited reduced AA enlargement (aortic diameter at 4 weeks: 2.1 vs. 2.7 mm, respectively, p = 0.012); decreased loss of elastic lamellae construction; reduced expression levels of IL-6, TNF-α, and MCP-1; decreased numbers of AIM-positive cells and inflammatory M1 macrophages (AIM: 1.4 vs. 8.0%, respectively, p = 0.004; M1 macrophages: 24.5 vs. 55.7%, respectively, p = 0.017); and higher expression of caspase-3 in the aortic wall (22.8 vs. 10.5%, respectively, p = 0.019). Our results suggest that administration of an anti-AIM antibody mitigated AA progression by alleviating inflammation and promoting M1 macrophage apoptosis.

Abstract
Background and purpose: Radiotherapy (RT) is an effective treatment for most malignant chest tumors. However, radiation-induced myocardial fibrosis (RIMF) is a serious side effect of RT. Currently, due to the mechanism of RIMF has not been fully elucidated, there is a lack of effective therapeutic approach. In this study, we aimed to investigate the role and possible mechanisms of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) in the therapy of RIMF. Materials and methods Twenty-four New Zealand white rabbits were allotted into four groups (n = 6). Rabbits in the Control group received neither irradiation nor treatment. A single dose of 20 Gy heart X-irradiation was applied to the RT group, RT + PBS group and RT + BMSCs group. Rabbits in the RT + PBS group and RT + BMSCs group were injected with 200 μL PBS or 2 × 106 cells via pericardium puncture 24 h following irradiation, respectively. Echocardiography was used to test the cardiac function; Then the heart samples were collected, and processed for histopathological, Western blot and immunohistochemistry investigations. Results It was observed that BMSCs have therapeutic effect on RIMF. Compared with the Control group, inflammatory mediators, oxidative stress and apoptosis were significantly increased, meanwhile, cardiac function was remarkably decreased in the RT group and RT + PBS group. However, in the BMSCs group, BMSCs significantly improved cardiac function, decreased inflammatory mediators, oxidative stress and apoptosis. Furthermore, BMSCs remarkably reduced the expression level of TGF-β1 and the phosphorylated-Smad2/3. Conclusions In conclusion, our research indicates BMSCs have the potential to alleviate RIMF through TGF-β1/Smad2/3 and would be a new therapeutic approach for patients with myocardial fibrosis.

Abstract
An aortic aneurysm (AA) is defined as focal aortic dilation that occurs mainly with older age and with chronic inflammation associated with atherosclerosis. The aneurysmal wall is a complex inflammatory environment characterized by endothelial dysfunction, macrophage activation, vascular smooth muscle cell (VSMC) apoptosis, and the production of proinflammatory molecules and matrix metalloproteases (MMPs) secreted by infiltrated inflammatory cells such as macrophages, T and B cells, dendritic cells, neutrophils, mast cells, and natural killer cells. To date, a considerable number of studies have been conducted on stem cell research, and growing evidence indicates that inflammation and tissue repair can be controlled through the functions of stem/progenitor cells. This review summarizes current cell-based therapies for AA, involving mesenchymal stem cells, VSMCs, multilineage-differentiating stress-enduring cells, and anti-inflammatory M2 macrophages. These cells produce beneficial outcomes in AA treatment by modulating the inflammatory environment, including decreasing the activity of proinflammatory molecules and MMPs, increasing anti-inflammatory molecules, modulating VSMC phenotypes, and preserving elastin. This article also describes detailed studies on pathophysiological mechanisms and the current progress of clinical trials.

Abstract
Aortic aneurysm (AA) is a vascular disorder characterized pathologically by inflammatory cell invasion and extracellular matrix (ECM) degradation. It is known that regulation of the balance between pro-inflammatory M1 macrophages (M1Ms) and anti-inflammatory M2 macrophages (M2Ms) plays a pivotal role in AA stabilization. We investigated the effects of M2M administration in an apolipoprotein E-deficient (apoE-/-) mouse model in which AA was induced by angiotensin II (ATII) infusion. Mice received intraperitoneal administration of 1 million M2Ms 4 weeks after ATII infusion. Compared with a control group that was administered saline, the M2M group exhibited reduced AA expansion; decreased expression levels of interleukin (IL)-1β, IL-6, tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), and monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1); and a lower M1M/M2M ratio. Moreover, the M2M group exhibited upregulation of anti-inflammatory factors, including IL-4 and IL-10. PKH26-labeled M2Ms accounted for 6.5% of cells in the aneurysmal site and co-expressed CD206. Taken together, intraperitoneal administration of M2Ms inhibited AA expansion by reducing the inflammatory reaction via regulating the M1M/M2M ratio. This study shows that M2M administration might be useful for the treatment of AA.

Development of pharmacotherapies for abdominal aortic aneurysms. Biomed Pharmacother 2022; 153:113340.

Abstract
The cardiovascular field is still searching for a treatment for abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAA). This inflammatory disease often goes undiagnosed until a late stage and associated rupture has a high mortality rate. No pharmacological treatment options are available. Three hallmark factors of AAA pathology include inflammation, extracellular matrix remodeling, and vascular smooth muscle dysfunction. Here we discuss drugs for AAA treatment that have been studied in clinical trials by examining the drug targets and data present for each drug's ability to regulate the aforementioned three hallmark pathways in AAA progression. Historically, drugs that were examined in interventional clinical trials for treatment of AAA were repurposed therapeutics. Novel treatments (biologics, small-molecule compounds etc.) have not been able to reach the clinic, stalling out in pre-clinical studies. Here we discuss the backgrounds of previous investigational drugs in hopes of better informing future development of potential therapeutics. Overall, the highlighted themes discussed here stress the importance of both centralized anti-inflammatory drug targets and rigor of translatability. Exceedingly few murine studies have examined an intervention-based drug treatment in halting further growth of an established AAA despite interventional treatment being the therapeutic approach taken to treat AAA in a clinical setting. Additionally, data suggest that a potentially successful drug target may be a central inflammatory biomarker. Specifically, one that can effectively modulate all three hallmark factors of AAA formation, not just inflammation. It is suggested that inhibiting PGE2 formation with an mPGES-1 inhibitor is a leading drug target for AAA treatment to this end.

Abstract
Abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) is a localized expansion of the abdominal aorta which can lead to lethal complication as the rupture of aortic wall. Currently there is still neither competent method to predict the impending rupture of aneurysm, nor effective treatment to arrest the progression of small and asymptomatic aneurysms. Accumulating evidence has confirmed the crucial role of extracellular vesicles (EVs) in the pathological course of AAA, acting as important mediators of intercellular communication. Given the advantages of intrinsic targeting properties, lower toxicity and fair stability, EVs show great potential to serve as biomarkers, therapeutic agents and drug delivery carriers. However, EV therapies still face several major challenges before they can be applied clinically, including off-target effect, low accumulation rate and rapid clearance by mononuclear phagocyte system. In this review, we first illustrate the roles of EV in the pathological process of AAA and evaluate its possible clinical applications. We also identify present challenges for EV applications, highlight different strategies of EV engineering and constructions of EV-like nanoparticles, including EV display technology and membrane hybrid technology. These leading-edge techniques have been recently employed in multiple cardiovascular diseases and their promising application in the field of AAA is discussed.

Abstract
Background Abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) is life-threatening, surgical treatment is currently the only clinically available intervention for the disease. Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) have presented eligible immunomodulatory and regenerative abilities which showed favorable therapeutic efficacy in various cardiovascular diseases. However, current evidence summarizing the effectiveness of MSCs for AAA is lacking. Thus, a meta-analysis and systematic review was necessary to be performed to assess the therapeutic efficacy of MSCs for AAA in preclinical studies. Methods Comprehensive literature search restricted in English was conducted in PubMed, Cochrane Library, EBSCO, EMBASE and Web of Science from inception to Oct 2021. The primary outcomes were parameters about aortic diameter change during MSCs intervention. The secondary outcomes included elastin content and expression level of inflammatory cytokines, matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) and their inhibitors (TIMPs). Data were extracted and analyzed independently by two authors. The meta package with random effects model was used to calculate the pooled effect size and 95% confidence intervals in R (version 4.0.2). Results Meta-analysis of 18 included studies demonstrated that MSCs intervention has significant therapeutic effects on suppressing aortic diameter enlargement compared with the control group (diameter, SMD = − 1.19, 95% CI [− 1.47, − 0.91]; diameter change ratio, SMD = − 1.36, 95% CI [− 1.72, − 1.00]). Subgroup analysis revealed differences between MSCs and control group regarding to cell type, intervention route and cell compatibility. Moreover, the meta-analysis also showed that MSCs intervention had a significant effect on preserving aortic elastin content, reducing MCP-1, TNF-α, IL-6, MMP-2/9 and increasing TIMP-1/2 expression level compared with control group. Conclusion Our results suggested that MSC intervention is effective in AAA by suppressing aortic diameter enlargement, reducing elastin degradation, and modulating local immunoinflammatory reactions. These results are important for the systemic application of MSCs as a potential treatment candidate for AAA in further animal experiments and clinical trials.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Several studies demonstrated the therapeutic potential of mesenchymal stem cell-derived exosomes (MSC-exs) based on their anti-inflammatory properties. The objective was to determine the therapeutic effects of MSC-exs on aortic aneurysms (AAs) caused by atherosclerosis. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS Apolipoprotein E knockout mice with AAs induced by angiotensin II were injected with MSC-exs or saline as a control. The change in the diameter of the aorta was measured. The expression of AA-related proteins and the histology of the aortic wall were investigated at 1 week after treatment. MicroRNA and protein profiles of MSC-exs were examined. RESULTS MSC-exs significantly attenuated AA progression (2.04 ± 0.20 mm in the saline group and 1.34 ± 0.13 mm in the MSC-ex group, P = 0.004). In the MSC-ex group, the expression of IL-1β, TNF-α and MCP-1 decreased, and expression of IGF-1 and TIMP-2 increased. MSC-ex induced the M2 phenotype in macrophages and suppressed the destruction of the elastic lamellae in the aortic wall. MSC-exs contained high levels of 10 microRNAs that inhibit AA formation and 13 proteins that inhibit inflammation and promote extracellular matrix synthesis. CONCLUSIONS MSC-ex might be a novel alternative therapeutic tool for treatment of existing AAs.

Abstract
We previously reported the effectiveness of autologous mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) for the treatment of aortic aneurysm (AA), mediated mainly by these cells' anti-inflammatory properties. In this study, we investigate whether the therapeutic effects of allogeneic MSCs on AA are the same as those of autologous MSCs. To examine the immune response to allogeneic MSCs, C57BL/6 lymphocytes were co-cultured with BALB/c MSCs for 5 days in vitro. Apolipoprotein E-deficient C57BL/6 mice with AA induced by angiotensin II were randomly divided into three groups defined by the following intravenous injections: (i) 0.2 ml of saline (n = 10, group S) as a control, (ii) 1 × 106 autologous MSCs (isolated from C57BL/6, n = 10, group Au) and (iii) 1 × 106 allogeneic MSCs (isolated from BALB/c, n = 10, group Al). Two weeks after injection, aortic diameters were measured, along with enzymatic activities of MMP-2 and MMP-9 and cytokine concentrations in AAs. Neither allogenic (BALB/c) MSCs nor autologous (C57BL/6) MSCs accelerated the proliferation of lymphocytes obtained from C57BL/6. Compared with group S, groups Au and Al had significantly shorter aortic diameters (group S vs Au vs Al; 2.29 vs 1.40 vs 1.36 mm, respectively, p < 0.01), reduced MMP-2 and MMP-9 activities, downregulated IL-6 and MCP-1 and upregulated expression of IGF-1 and TIMP-2. There were no differences in these results between groups Au and Al. Thus, our study suggests that treatment with allogeneic MSCs improves chronic inflammation and reduced aortic dilatation. These effects were equivalent to those of autologous MSCs in established mouse models of AA.

Abstract
Human mesenchymal stromal/stem cells (hMSCs) show great promise in cell therapy due to their immunomodulatory properties. The overall immunomodulatory response of hMSCs resembles the resolution of inflammation, in which lipid mediators and regulatory macrophages (Mregs) play key roles. We investigated the effect of hMSC cell-cell contact and secretome on macrophages polarized and activated toward Mreg phenotype. Moreover, we studied the effect of supplemented polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs): docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) and arachidonic acid, the precursors of lipid mediators, on hMSC immunomodulation. Our results show that unlike hMSC cell-cell contact, the hMSC secretome markedly increased the CD206 expression in both Mreg-polarized and Mreg-activated macrophages. Moreover, the secretome enhanced the expression of programmed death-ligand 1 on Mreg-polarized macrophages and Mer receptor tyrosine kinase on Mreg-activated macrophages. Remarkably, these changes were translated into improved Candida albicans phagocytosis activity of macrophages. Taken together, these results demonstrate that the hMSC secretome promotes the immunoregulatory and proresolving phenotype of Mregs. Intriguingly, DHA supplementation to hMSCs resulted in a more potentiated immunomodulation with increased CD163 expression and decreased gene expression of matrix metalloproteinase 2 in Mreg-polarized macrophages. These findings highlight the potential of PUFA supplementations as an easy and safe method to improve the hMSC therapeutic potential.

Abstract
Abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) is life-threatening, for which efficient nonsurgical treatment strategy has not been available so far. Several previous studies investigating the therapeutic effect of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) in AAA indicated that MSCs could inhibit aneurysmal inflammatory responses and extracellular matrix destruction, and suppress aneurysm occurrence and expansion. Vascular smooth muscle cell (VSMC) phenotypic plasticity is reported to be predisposed in AAA initiation and progression. However, little is known about the effect of MSCs on VSMC phenotypic modulation in AAA. In this study, we investigate the therapeutic efficacy of umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells (UC-MSCs) in elastase-induced AAA model and evaluate the effect of UC-MSC on VSMC phenotypic regulation. We demonstrate that the intravenous injection of UC-MSC attenuates elastase-induced aneurysmal expansion, reduces elastin degradation and fragmentation, inhibits MMPs and TNF-α expression, and preserves and/or restores VSMC contractile phenotype in AAA. Taken together, these results highlight the therapeutic and VSMC phenotypic modulation effects of UC-MSC in AAA progression, which further indicates the potential of applying UC-MSC as an alternative treatment candidate for AAA.

Abstract
Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) exhibit therapeutic benefits on aortic aneurysm (AA); however, the molecular mechanisms are not fully understood. The current study aimed to investigate the therapeutic effects and potential mechanisms of murine bone marrow MSC (BM‐MSCs)–derived conditioned medium (MSCs‐CM) on angiotensin II (AngII)‐induced AA in apolipoprotein E‐deficient (apoE−/−) mice. Murine BM‐MSCs, MSCs‐CM or control medium were intravenously administrated into AngII‐induced AA in apoE−/− mice. Mice were sacrificed at 2 weeks after injection. BM‐MSCs and MSCs‐CM significantly attenuated matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)‐2 and MMP‐9 expression, aortic elastin degradation and AA growth at the site of AA. These treatments with BM‐MSCs and MSCs‐CM also decreased Ly6chigh monocytes in peripheral blood on day 7 and M1 macrophage infiltration in AA tissues on day 14, whereas they increased M2 macrophages. In addition, BM‐MSCs and MSCs‐CM reduced MCP‐1, IL‐1Ra and IL‐6 expression and increased IL‐10 expression in AA tissues. In vitro, peritoneal macrophages were co‐cultured with BM‐MSCs or fibroblasts as control in a transwell system. The mRNA and protein expression of M2 macrophage markers were evaluated. IL‐6 and IL‐1β were reduced, while IL‐10 was increased in the BM‐MSC systems. The mRNA and protein expression of M2 markers were up‐regulated in the BM‐MSC systems. Furthermore, high concentration of IGF1, VEGF and TGF‐β1 was detected in MSCs‐CM. Our results suggest that MSCs‐CM could prevent AA growth potentially through regulating macrophage polarization. These results may provide a new insight into the mechanisms of BM‐MSCs in the therapy of AA.

Abstract
This study aims to validate whether bone marrow stromal cells (BMSCs) transplantation could promote the resolution and recanalization of deep vein thrombosis (DVT) and to explore the underlying mechanism. The right hind femoral vein was embolized to establish the DVT rabbit model. BMSCs from New Zealand white rabbits were isolated and identified, and then injected into DVT rabbits. After that, the extent of angiogenesis was determined by the amount of capillaries that were positive for antibody against vWF. Macrophage infiltration was measured by immunohistochemistry with F4/80 antibody. M1 or M2 macrophages were identified as F4/80 + CD11c + or F4/80 + CD206 + cells by using flow cytometry analysis, respectively. BMSCs were successfully isolated and identified. BMSCs transplantation promotes macrophage infiltration and angiogenesis in DVT rabbits. BMSCs transplantation causes M1/M2 polarization, altered cytokine production and increased monocyte chemotactic protein 1 (MCP-1) protein expression in DVT rabbits. However, injection of MCP-1 protein not only reversed the effects of BMSCs transplantation on macrophage infiltration and angiogenesis, but also reversed the effects of BMSCs transplantation on M1/M2 polarization and cytokine production in DVT rabbits. BMSCs transplantation promotes the resolution and recanalization of DVT in rabbits through regulating macrophage infiltration and angiogenesis, the underlying mechanism is associated with MCP-1 expression.

Abstract
Background The pathogenesis of abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) is characterized by atherosclerosis with chronic inflammation in the aortic wall. Montelukast is a selective cys-LT 1 receptor antagonist that can suppress atherosclerotic diseases. We evaluated the in vitro properties of montelukast and its in vivo activities in an angiotensin II–infused apolipoprotein E–deficient (apoE−/−) AAA mouse model. Methods The mouse monocyte/macrophage cell line J774A.1 was used in vitro. M1 macrophages were treated with montelukast, and gene expressions of inflammatory cytokines were measured. Macrophages were cultured with montelukast, then gene expressions of arginase-1 and IL (interleukin)-10 were assessed by quantitative polymerase chain reaction, arginase-1 was measured by fluorescence-activated cell sorting, and IL-10 concentration was analyzed by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. In vivo, one group (Mont, n=7) received oral montelukast (10 mg/kg/day) for 28 days, and the other group (Saline, n=7) was given normal Saline as a control for the same period. Aortic diameters, activities of matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs), cytokine concentrations, and the number of M2 macrophages were analyzed. Results Relative to control, montelukast significantly suppressed gene expressions of MMP-2, MMP-9, and IL-1β, induced gene expressions of arginase-1 and IL-10, enhanced the expression of the arginase-1 cell surface protein, and increased the protein concentration of IL-10. In vivo, montelukast significantly decreased aortic expansion (Saline vs Mont; 2.44 ± 0.15 mm vs 1.59 ± 0.20 mm, P<.01), reduced MMP-2 activity (Saline vs Mont; 1240 μM vs 755 μM, P<.05), and induced infiltration of M2 macrophages (Saline vs Mont; 7.51 % vs 14.7 %, P<.05). Conclusion Montelukast induces M2 macrophage polarization and prevents AAA formation in apoE−/− mice.

Abstract
Current management of aortic aneurysms relies exclusively on prophylactic operative repair of larger aneurysms. Great potential exists for successful medical therapy that halts or reduces aneurysm progression and hence alleviates or postpones the need for surgical repair. Preclinical studies in the context of abdominal aortic aneurysm identified hundreds of candidate strategies for stabilization, and data from preoperative clinical intervention studies show that interventions in the pathways of the activated inflammatory and proteolytic cascades in enlarging abdominal aortic aneurysm are feasible. Similarly, the concept of pharmaceutical aorta stabilization in Marfan syndrome is supported by a wealth of promising studies in the murine models of Marfan syndrome-related aortapathy. Although some clinical studies report successful medical stabilization of growing aortic aneurysms and aortic root stabilization in Marfan syndrome, these claims are not consistently confirmed in larger and controlled studies. Consequently, no medical therapy can be recommended for the stabilization of aortic aneurysms. The discrepancy between preclinical successes and clinical trial failures implies shortcomings in the available models of aneurysm disease and perhaps incomplete understanding of the pathological processes involved in later stages of aortic aneurysm progression. Preclinical models more reflective of human pathophysiology, identification of biomarkers to predict severity of disease progression, and improved design of clinical trials may more rapidly advance the opportunities in this important field.

Abstract
Aortic aneurysm (AA) is defined as an enlargement of the aorta greater than 1.5 times its normal size. Early diagnosis of AA is challenging and mortality of AA is high. Curative pharmacological treatments for AA are still lacking, highlighting the need for better understanding of the underlying mechanisms of AA progression. Accumulating studies have proven that the polarization state of circulating monocyte-derived macrophages plays a crucial role in regulating the development of AA. Distinct macrophage subtypes display different functions. Several studies targeting macrophage polarization during AA formation and progression showed potential treatment effects. In this review, we focus on the recent advances of research on macrophage polarization in the progression of AA and propose that targeting macrophage polarization could hold great promise for preventing and treating AA.

Abstract
An abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) is a localized dilatation of the infrarenal aorta. AAA is a multifactorial disease, and genetic and environmental factors play a part; smoking, male sex and a positive family history are the most important risk factors, and AAA is most common in men >65 years of age. AAA results from changes in the aortic wall structure, including thinning of the media and adventitia due to the loss of vascular smooth muscle cells and degradation of the extracellular matrix. If the mechanical stress of the blood pressure acting on the wall exceeds the wall strength, the AAA ruptures, causing life-threatening intra-abdominal haemorrhage - the mortality for patients with ruptured AAA is 65-85%. Although AAAs of any size can rupture, the risk of rupture increases with diameter. Intact AAAs are typically asymptomatic, and in settings where screening programmes with ultrasonography are not implemented, most cases are diagnosed incidentally. Modern functional imaging techniques (PET, CT and MRI) may help to assess rupture risk. Elective repair of AAA with open surgery or endovascular aortic repair (EVAR) should be considered to prevent AAA rupture, although the morbidity and mortality associated with both techniques remain non-negligible.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are multipotent stem or stromal cells found in multiple tissues. Intravenous MSC injections have been used to treat various diseases with an inflammatory component in animals and humans. Inflammation is emerging as a key component of pathophysiology of intracranial aneurysms. Modulation of inflammation by MSCs may affect sustained inflammatory processes that lead to aneurysmal rupture. OBJECTIVE To assess the effect of MSCs on the development of aneurysm rupture using a mouse model. METHODS Intracranial aneurysms were induced with a combination of a single elastase injection into the cerebrospinal fluid and deoxycorticosterone acetate salt-induced hypertension in mice. We administered allogeneic bone marrow-derived MSCs or vehicle, 6 and 9 d after aneurysm induction. RESULTS MSC administration significantly reduced rupture rate (vehicle control vs MSCs, 90% vs 36%; P < .05). In cell culture experiments with an MSC and mast cell coculture, MSCs stabilized mast cells through cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2)-dependent production of prostaglandin E2, thereby reducing the release of proinflammatory cytokines from mast cells. Pretreatment of MSCs with COX-2 inhibitor, NS-398, abolished the protective effect of MSCs against the development of aneurysm rupture. CONCLUSION Intravenous administration of MSCs after aneurysm formation prevented aneurysmal rupture in mice. The protective effect of MSCs against the development of aneurysm rupture appears to be mediated in part by the stabilization of mast cells by MSCs.

Abstract
The formation of an abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) is characterized by inflammation, macrophage infiltration, and vascular remodeling. In this study, we tested the hypothesis that mesenchymal stromal cell (MSC)-derived extracellular vesicles (EVs) immunomodulate aortic inflammation, to mitigate AAA formation via modulation of microRNA-147. An elastase-treatment model of AAA was used in male C57BL/6 wild-type (WT) mice. Administration of EVs in elastase-treated WT mice caused a significant attenuation of aortic diameter and mitigated proinflammatory cytokines, inflammatory cell infiltration, an increase in smooth muscle cell α-actin expression, and a decrease in elastic fiber disruption, compared with untreated mice. A 10-fold up-regulation of microRNA (miR)-147, a key mediator of macrophage inflammatory responses, was observed in murine aortic tissue in elastase-treated mice compared with controls on d 14. EVs derived from MSCs transfected with miR-147 mimic, but not with miR-147 inhibitor, attenuated aortic diameter, inflammation, and leukocyte infiltration in elastase-treated mice. In vitro studies of human aortic tissue explants and murine-derived CD11b+ macrophages induced proinflammatory cytokines after elastase treatment, and the expression was attenuated by cocultures with EVs transfected with miR-147 mimic, but not with miR-147 inhibitor. Thus, our findings define a critical role of MSC-derived EVs in attenuation of aortic inflammation and macrophage activation via miR-147 during AAA formation.-Spinosa, M., Lu, G., Su, G., Bontha, S.

Transplantation of Bone Marrow Mesenchymal Stem Cells Prevents Radiation-Induced Artery Injury by Suppressing Oxidative Stress and Inflammation. OXIDATIVE MEDICINE AND CELLULAR LONGEVITY 2018; 2018:5942916. [PMID: 29682160 PMCID: PMC5851295 DOI: 10.1155/2018/5942916] [Citation(s) in RCA: 24] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/08/2017] [Revised: 10/16/2017] [Accepted: 12/16/2017] [Indexed: 12/26/2022]
Abstract
The present study aims to explore the protective effect of human bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (hBMSCs) on radiation-induced aortic injury (RIAI). hBMSCs were isolated and cultured from human bone marrow. Male C57/BL mice were irradiated with a dose of 18-Gy 6MV X-ray and randomly treated with either vehicle or hBMSCs through tail vein injection with a dose of 103 or 104 cells/g of body weight (low or high dose of hBMSCs) within 24 h. Aortic inflammation, oxidative stress, and vascular remodeling were assessed by immunohistochemical staining at 3, 7, 14, 28, and 84 days after irradiation. The results revealed irradiation caused aortic cell apoptosis and fibrotic remodeling indicated by aortic thickening, collagen accumulation, and increased expression of profibrotic cytokines (CTGF and TGF-β). Further investigation showed that irradiation resulted in elevated expression of inflammation-related molecules (TNF-α and ICAM-1) and oxidative stress indicators (4-HNE and 3-NT). Both of the low and high doses of hBMSCs alleviated the above irradiation-induced pathological changes and elevated the antioxidant enzyme expression of HO-1 and catalase in the aorta. The high dose even showed a better protective effect. In conclusion, hBMSCs provide significant protection against RIAI possibly through inhibition of aortic oxidative stress and inflammation. Therefore, hBMSCs can be used as a potential therapy to treat RIAI.

Abstract
The aorta is a well-organized, multilayered structure comprising several cell types, namely, endothelial cells (ECs), vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs), and fibroblasts, as well as an extracellular matrix (ECM), which includes elastic and collagen fibers. Aortic aneurysms (AAs) are defined as progressive enlargements of the aorta that carries an incremental risk of rupture as the diameter increases over time. The destruction of the aortic wall tissue is triggered by atherosclerosis, inflammation, and oxidative stress, leading to the activation of matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs), and inflammatory cytokines and chemokines, resulting in the loss of the structural back bone of VSMCs, ECM, and ECs. To date, cell-based therapy has been applied to animal models using several types of cells, such as VSMCs, ECs, and mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs). Although these cells indeed deliver beneficial outcomes for AAs, particularly by paracrine and immunomodulatory effects, the attenuation of aneurysmal dilation with a robust tissue repair is insufficient. Meanwhile, multilineage-differentiating stress-enduring (Muse) cells are known to be endogenous non-tumorigenic pluripotent-like stem cells that are included as several percent of MSCs. Since Muse cells are pluripotent-like, they have the ability to differentiate into cells representative of all three germ layers from a single cell and to self-renew. Moreover, Muse cells are able to home to the site of damage following simple intravenous injection and repair the tissue by replenishing new functional cells through spontaneous differentiation into tissue-compatible cells. Given these unique properties, Muse cells are expected to provide an efficient therapeutic efficacy for AA by simple intravenous injection. In this chapter, we summarize several studies on Muse cell therapy for AA including our recent data, in comparison with other kinds of cell therapies.

Abstract
Elastin is the dominant mammalian elastic protein found in soft tissue. Elastin-based biomaterials have the potential to repair elastic tissues by improving local elasticity and providing appropriate cellular interactions and signaling. Studies that combine these biomaterials with mesenchymal stem cells have demonstrated their capacity to also regenerate non-elastic tissue. Mesenchymal stem cell differentiation can be controlled by their immediate environment, and their sensitivity to elasticity makes them an ideal candidate for combining with elastin-based biomaterials. With the growing accessibility of the elastin precursor, tropoelastin, and elastin-derived materials, the amount of research interest in combining these two fields has increased and, subsequently, is leading to the realization of a potentially new strategy for regenerative medicine.

Abstract
Peripheral artery disease (PAD) is a broad disorder encompassing multiple forms of arterial disease outside of the heart. As such, PAD development is a multifactorial process with a variety of manifestations. For example, aneurysms are pathological expansions of an artery that can lead to rupture, while ischemic atherosclerosis reduces blood flow, increasing the risk of claudication, poor wound healing, limb amputation, and stroke. Current PAD treatment is often ineffective or associated with serious risks, largely because these disorders are commonly undiagnosed or misdiagnosed. Active areas of research are focused on detecting and characterizing deleterious arterial changes at early stages using non-invasive imaging strategies, such as ultrasound, as well as emerging technologies like photoacoustic imaging. Earlier disease detection and characterization could improve interventional strategies, leading to better prognosis in PAD patients. While rodents are being used to investigate PAD pathophysiology, imaging of these animal models has been underutilized. This review focuses on structural and molecular information and disease progression revealed by recent imaging efforts of aortic, cerebral, and peripheral vascular disease models in mice, rats, and rabbits. Effective translation to humans involves better understanding of underlying PAD pathophysiology to develop novel therapeutics and apply non-invasive imaging techniques in the clinic.
