[PMID: 38960061 DOI: 10.1016/j.ejphar.2024.176793] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/04/2023] [Revised: 06/26/2024] [Accepted: 06/26/2024] [Indexed: 07/05/2024]
Abstract
In recent years, a common-used antidiabetic drug, liraglutide, was identified with extra effects on lipid metabolism. Its effects against excessive lipid deposition in bone marrow were gained much attention but not well established. Our aim in the present study is to explore the interaction of miRNAs-mRNAs altered by liraglutide administration during bone marrow adipogenesis in diabetes. To establish the diabetic animal model, rats were treated with high fat diet (HFD) and STZ injection. We then identified the lowering effect of liraglutide on lipids metabolism in the diabetes. During this process, high-throughput sequencing and bioinformatics analyses on miRNAs extracted from bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) were conducted after liraglutide administration. We then identified five differentially expressed miRNAs (miRNA-150-5p, miRNA-129-5p, miRNA-201-3p, miRNA-201-5p, and miRNA-214-5p). The expressions of the DE miRNAs were verified as temporal specific expression patterns in Day 3 and in Day 7. Among them, miRNA-150-5p expression was more stable and consistent with the sequencing data. Of interest, miR-150-5p overexpression facilitated adipogenesis of BMSCs. But this promotion was alleviated by liraglutide. The predicted target gene of miR-150-5p, GDF11, was validated to be involved in liraglutide alleviated BMSCs' lipid accumulation in diabetes. In vitro, liraglutide increased the GDF11 expression, rescued its down-expression by siGDF11 and inhibit the adipogenesis of BMSCs cultured in high glucose medium. In vivo, liraglutide reversed the HFD-STZ induced excessive lipid droplets by up-regulation of GDF11 expression, which was discounted by agomiR-150-5p injection. Above all, liraglutide might alleviate bone marrow fat accumulation via inactivating miR-150-5p/GDF11 axis in diabetes.

Abstract
Bone marrow stromal/stem cells (BMSCs) are generally considered as common progenitors for both osteoblasts and adipocytes in the bone marrow, but show preferential differentiation into adipocytes rather than osteoblasts under aging, thus leading to senile osteoporosis. Accumulated evidences indicate that rejuvenation of BMSCs by autophagic enhancement delays bone aging. Here we synthetized and demonstrated a novel autophagy activator, CXM102 that could induce autophagy in aged BMSCs, resulting in rejuvenation and preferential differentiation into osteoblasts of BMSCs. Furthermore, CXM102 significantly stimulated bone anabolism, reduced marrow adipocytes, and delayed bone loss in middle-age male mice. Mechanistically, CXM102 promoted transcription factor EB (TFEB) nuclear translocation and favored osteoblasts formation both in vitro and in vivo. Moreover, CXM102 decreased serum levels of inflammation and reduced organ fibrosis, leading to a prolonger lifespan in male mice. Our results indicated that CXM102 could be used as an autophagy inducer to rejuvenate BMSCs and shed new lights on strategies for senile osteoporosis and healthyspan improvement.

Abstract
Psoriasis (Ps) is one of the most common chronic inflammatory skin disorders with its pathogenesis correlated with dysregulated innate and adaptive system. Even though biological agents have advanced the treatment of psoriasis, however, there are huge limitations, like high adverse reactions and relapse rate. Therefore, it is of great interest in searching clinical resolutions with better safety and efficacy. In the current study, we utilized the adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cell (AD-MSCs) to treat moderate/severe cases of psoriasis in a single-arm clinical study. This AD-MSC treatment has proven to be clinically safe and effective. Interestingly, a trend of adaptome improvement, including increased diversity, elevated uCDR3s and decreased large clone after AD-MSC treatment in a short (2 weeks) and long (12 weeks) terms. In conclusion, allogenic AD-MSC treatment has shown a good safety and efficacy in treating Ps and can effectively improve the compromised adaptive immune system of Ps patients.

Imbalance of early-life vitamin D intake targets ROS-mediated crosstalk between mitochondrial dysfunction and differentiation potential of MSCs associated the later obesity.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Obesity is characterized by excessive fat accumulation, which is related with abnormal pluripotency of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs). Recently, there is growing evidence that the disorder of maternal vitamin D (VD) intake is a well-known risk factor for long-term adverse health outcomes to their offspring. Otherwise, less is known of its repercussion and underlying mechanisms on the different differentiation potential of MSCs. METHODS Four-week-old female C57BL/6J mice were fed with different VD reproductive diets throughout the whole pregnancy and lactation. The characteristics of BMSCs from their seven-day male offspring, VDR knockdown establishment of HuMSCs and HuMSCs under the different VD interventions in vitro were confirmed by flow cytometry, RT-PCR, and immunofluorescence. The roles of VD on their mitochondrial dysfunction and differentiation potential were also investigated. Then their remaining weaned male pups were induced by administrating high-fat-diet (HFD) for 16 weeks and normal fat diet was simultaneously as controls. Their lipid accumulation and adipocytes hypertrophy were determined by histological staining and related gene expressions. RESULTS Herein, it was proved that imbalance of early-life VD intake could significantly aggravate the occurrence of obesity by inducing the adipogenesis through affecting the VD metabolism and related metabolites (P < 0.05). Moreover, abnormally maternal VD intake might be involved on the disorders of differentiation potential to inhibit the maintenance of MSCs stemness through increasing the productions of ROS, which was accompanied by impairing the expression of related genes on the adipo-osteogenic differentiation (P < 0.05). Moreover, it was along with increasing potential of adipogenic differentiation of MSCs as higher ROS in the state of VD deficiency, while excessive maternal VD status could conversely enhance the osteogenic differentiation with slightly lower ROS (P < 0.05). Furthermore, the underlying mechanisms might be involved on the mitochondria dysfunctional, especially the mitophagy, by activating the LC3b, P62 and etc. using in vivo and in vitro studies (P < 0.05). CONCLUSION These findings demonstrated that imbalance of early-life VD intake could target ROS-mediated crosstalk between mitochondrial dysfunction and differentiation potential of MSCs, which was significantly associated with the later obesity. Obviously, our results could open up an attractive modality for the benefits of suitable VD intake during the pregnancy and lactation.

Abstract
Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) hold significant promise for regenerative medicine and tissue engineering due to their unique multipotent differentiation ability and immunomodulatory properties. MSC therapy is widely discussed and utilized in clinical treatment. However, during both in vitro expansion and in vivo transplantation, MSCs are prone to senescence, an irreversible growth arrest characterized by morphological, gene expression, and functional changes in genomic regulation. The microenvironment surrounding MSCs plays a crucial role in modulating their senescence phenotype, influenced by factors such as hypoxia, inflammation, and aging status. Numerous strategies targeting MSC senescence have been developed, including senolytics and senomorphic agents, antioxidant and exosome therapies, mitochondrial transfer, and niche modulation. Novel approaches addressing replicative senescence have also emerged. This paper comprehensively reviews the current molecular manifestations of MSC senescence, addresses the environmental impact on senescence, and highlights potential therapeutic strategies to mitigate senescence in MSC-based therapies. These insights aim to enhance the efficacy and understanding of MSC therapies.

Abstract
Replicative senescence of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) caused by repeated cell culture undermines their potential as a cell therapy because of the reduction in their proliferation and therapeutic potential. Glutaminase-1 (GLS1) is reported to be involved in the survival of senescent cells, and inhibition of GLS1 alleviates age-related dysfunction via senescent cell removal. In the present study, we attempted to elucidate the association between MSC senescence and GLS1. We conducted in vitro and in vivo experiments to analyze the effect of GLS1 inhibition on senolysis and the therapeutic effects of MSCs. Inhibition of GLS1 in Wharton's jelly-derived MSCs (WJ-MSCs) reduced the expression of aging-related markers, such as p16, p21, and senescence-associated secretory phenotype genes, by senolysis. Replicative senescence-alleviated WJ-MSCs, which recovered after short-term treatment with bis-2-(5-phenylacetamido-1,2,4-thiadiazol-2-yl)ethyl sulfide 3 (BPTES), showed increased proliferation and therapeutic effects compared to those observed with senescent WJ-MSCs. Moreover, compared to senescent WJ-MSCs, replicative senescence-alleviated WJ-MSCs inhibited apoptosis in serum-starved C2C12 cells, enhanced muscle formation, and hindered apoptosis and fibrosis in mdx mice. These results imply that GLS1 inhibition can ameliorate the therapeutic effects of senescent WJ-MSCs in patients with muscle diseases such as Duchenne muscular dystrophy. In conclusion, GLS1 is a key factor in modulating the senescence mechanism of MSCs, and regulation of GLS1 may enhance the therapeutic effects of senescent MSCs, thereby increasing the success rate of clinical trials involving MSCs.

Abstract
Ageing as a natural irreversible process inherently results in the functional deterioration of numerous organ systems and tissues, including the skeletal and immune systems. Recent studies have elucidated the intricate bidirectional interactions between these two systems. In this review, we provide a comprehensive synthesis of molecular mechanisms of cell ageing. We further discuss how age-related skeletal changes influence the immune system and the consequent impact of immune system alterations on the skeletal system. Finally, we highlight the clinical implications of these findings and propose potential strategies to promote healthy ageing and reduce pathologic deterioration of both the skeletal and immune systems.

Artificial mitochondrial transplantation (AMT) reverses aging of mesenchymal stromal cells and improves their immunomodulatory properties in LPS-induced synoviocytes inflammation.

Abstract
Nowadays, regenerative medicine techniques are usually based on the application of mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) for the repair or restoration of injured damaged tissues. However, the effectiveness of autologous therapy is limited as therapeutic potential of MSCs declines due to patient's age, health condition and prolonged in vitro cultivation as a result of decreased growth rate. For that reason, there is an urgent need to develop strategies enabling the in vitro rejuvenation of MSCs prior transplantation in order to enhance their in vivo therapeutic efficiency. In presented study, we attempted to mimic the naturally occurring mitochondrial transfer (MT) between neighbouring cells and verify whether artificial MT (AMT) could reverse MSCs aging and improve their biological properties. For that reason, mitochondria were isolated from healthy donor equine adipose-derived stromal cells (ASCs) and transferred into metabolically impaired recipient ASCs derived from equine metabolic syndrome (EMS) affected horses, which were subsequently subjected to various analytical methods in order to verify the cellular and molecular outcomes of the applied AMT. Mitochondria recipient cells were characterized by decreased apoptosis, senescence and endoplasmic reticulum stress while insulin sensitivity was enhanced. Furthermore, we observed increased mitochondrial fragmentation and associated PARKIN protein accumulation, which indicates on the elimination of dysfunctional organelles via mitophagy. AMT further promoted physioxia and regulated autophagy fluxes. Additionally, rejuvenated ASCs displayed an improved anti-inflammatory activity toward LPS-stimulated synoviocytes. The presented findings highlight AMT as a promising alternative and effective method for MSCs rejuvenation, for potential application in autologous therapies in which MSCs properties are being strongly deteriorated due to patients' condition.

Genome-wide sequencing identified extrachromosomal circular DNA as a transcription factor-binding motif of the senescence genes that govern replicative senescence in human mesenchymal stem cells.

Abstract
Introduction Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) have long been postulated as an important source cell in regenerative medicine. During subculture expansion, mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) senescence diminishes their multi-differentiation capabilities, leading to a loss of therapeutic potential. Up to date, the extrachromosomal circular DNAs (eccDNAs) have been demonstrated to be involved in senescence but the roles of eccDNAs during MSC. Methods Here we explored eccDNA profiles in human bone marrow MSCs (BM-MSCs). EccDNA and mRNA was purified and sequenced, followed by quantification and functional annotation. Moreover, we mapped our datasets with the downloading enhancer and transcription factor-regulated genes to explore the potential role of eccDNAs. Results Sequentially, gene annotation analysis revealed that the majority of eccDNA were mapped in the intron regions with limited BM-MSC enhancer overlaps. We discovered that these eccDNA motifs in senescent BMSCs acted as motifs for binding transcription factors (TFs) of senescence-related genes. Discussion These findings are highly significant for identifying biomarkers of senescence and therapeutic targets in mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) for future clinical applications. The potential of eccDNA as a stable therapeutic target for senescence-related disorders warrants further investigation, particularly exploring chemically synthesized eccDNAs as transcription factor regulatory elements to reverse cellular senescence.

Abstract
Adipose tissue-derived stem cells (ADSCs) represent a subset of the mesenchymal stem cells in every adipose compartment throughout the body. ADSCs can differentiate into various cell types, including chondrocytes, osteocytes, myocytes, and adipocytes. Moreover, they exhibit a notable potential to differentiate in vitro into cells from other germinal lineages, including endothelial cells and neurons. ADSCs have a wide range of clinical applications, from breast surgery to chronic wounds. Furthermore, they are a promising cell population for future tissue-engineering uses. Accumulating evidence indicates a decreased proliferation and differentiation potential of ADSCs with an increasing age, increasing body mass index, diabetes mellitus, metabolic syndrome, or exposure to radiotherapy. Therefore, the recent literature thoroughly investigates this cell population's senescence mechanisms and how they can hinder its possible therapeutic applications. This review will discuss the biological mechanisms and the physio-pathological causes behind ADSC senescence and how they can impact cellular functionality. Moreover, we will examine the possible strategies to invert these processes, re-establishing the full regenerative potential of this progenitor population.

Abstract
Introduction Fanconi anemia (FA) is an inherited disorder characterized by bone marrow failure, congenital malformations, and predisposition to malignancies. Alterations in hematopoietic stem cells (HSC) have been reported, but little is known regarding the bone marrow (BM) stroma. Thus, the characterization of Mesenchymal Stromal Cells (MSC) would help to elucidate their involvement in the BM failure. Methods We characterized MSCs of 28 FA patients (FA-MSC) before and after treatment (hematopoietic stem cell transplantation, HSCT; or gene therapy, GT). Phenotypic and functional properties were analyzed and compared with MSCs expanded from 26 healthy donors (HD-MSCs). FA-MSCs were genetically characterized through, mitomycin C-test and chimerism analysis. Furthermore, RNA-seq profiling was used to identify dysregulated metabolic pathways. Results Overall, FA-MSC had the same phenotypic and functional characteristics as HD-MSC. Of note, MSC-GT had a lower clonogenic efficiency. These findings were not confirmed in the whole FA patients' cohort. Transcriptomic profiling identified dysregulation in HSC self-maintenance pathways in FA-MSC (HOX), and was confirmed by real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR). Discussion Our study provides a comprehensive characterization of FA-MSCs, including for the first time MSC-GT and constitutes the largest series published to date. Interestingly, transcript profiling revealed dysregulation of metabolic pathways related to HSC self-maintenance. Taken together, our results or findings provide new insights into the pathophysiology of the disease, although whether these niche defects are involved in the hematopoietic defects seen of FA deserves further investigation.

Abstract
Advancing age is associated with several age-related diseases (ARDs), with musculoskeletal conditions impacting millions of elderly people worldwide. With orthopedic conditions contributing towards considerable number of patients, a deeper understanding of bone aging is the need of the hour. One of the underlying factors of bone aging is cellular senescence and its associated senescence associated secretory phenotype (SASP). SASP comprises of pro-inflammatory markers, cytokines and chemokines that arrest cell growth and development. The accumulation of SASP over several years leads to chronic low-grade inflammation with advancing age, also known as inflammaging. The pathways and molecular mechanisms focused on bone senescence and inflammaging are currently limited but are increasingly being explored. Most of the genes, pathways and mechanisms involved in senescence and inflammaging coincide with those associated with cancer and other ARDs like osteoarthritis (OA). Thus, exploring these pathways using techniques like sequencing, identifying these factors and combatting them with the most suitable approach are crucial for healthy aging and the early detection of ARDs. Several approaches can be used to aid regeneration and reduce senescence in the bone. These may be pharmacological, non-pharmacological and lifestyle interventions. With increasing evidence towards the intricate relationship between aging, senescence, inflammation and ARDs, these approaches may also be used as anti-aging strategies for the aging bone marrow (BM).

Abstract
Ageing and cell senescence of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) limited their immunomodulation properties and therapeutic application. We previously reported that nucleosome assembly protein 1-like 2 (Nap1l2) contributes to MSCs senescence and osteogenic differentiation. Here, we sought to evaluate whether Nap1l2 impairs the immunomodulatory properties of MSCs and find a way to rescue the deficient properties. We demonstrated that metformin could rescue the impaired migration properties and T cell regulation properties of OE-Nap1l2 BMSCs. Moreover, metformin could improve the impaired therapeutic efficacy of OE-Nap1l2 BMSCs in the treatment of colitis and experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis in mice. Mechanistically, metformin was capable of upregulating the activation of AMPK, synthesis of l-arginine and expression of inducible nitric oxide synthase in OE-Nap1l2 BMSCs, leading to an increasing level of nitric oxide. This study indicated that Nap1l2 negatively regulated the immunomodulatory properties of BMSCs and that the impaired functions could be rescued by metformin pretreatment via metabolic reprogramming. This strategy might serve as a practical therapeutic option to rescue impaired MSCs functions for further application.

Abstract
Mesenchymal stromal cells (MSC) from adult bone marrow are the most commonly used cells in clinical trials. MSCs from single donors are the preferred starting material but suffer from a major setback of being heterogeneous that results in unpredictable and inconsistent clinical outcomes. To overcome this, we developed a method of pooling MSCs from different donors and created cell banks to cater clinical needs. Initially, the master cell banks (MCBs) were created at passage 1 (P1) from the bone marrow MSCs isolated from of nine different donors. At this stage, MCBs from three different donors were mixed in equal proportion and expanded till P3 to create working cell banks. Further, the pooled cells and individual donor MSCs were expanded till P5 and cryopreserved and extensively characterised. There was a large heterogeneity among the individual donor MSCs in terms of growth kinetics (90% Coefficient of variation (CV) for cell yield and 44% CV for population doubling time at P5), immunosuppressive ability (30% CV at 1:1 and 300% CV at 1:10 ratio), and the angiogenic factor secretion potential (20% CV for VEGF and71% CV for SDF-1). Comparatively, the pooled cells have more stable profiles (60% CV for cell yield and 7% CV for population doubling time at P5) and exhibit better immunosuppressive ability (15% CV at 1:1 and 32% CV at 1:10 ratio ) and consistent secretion of angiogenic factors (16% CV for VEGF and 51% CV for SDF-1). Further pooling does not compromise the trilineage differentiation capacity or phenotypic marker expression of the MSCs. The senescence and in vitro tumourigenicity characteristics of the pooled cells are also similar to those of individual donor MSCs. We conclude that pooling of MSCs from three different donors reduces heterogeneity among individual donors and produces MSCs with a consistent secretion and higher immunosuppressive profile.

Abstract
Stem cell-mediated tissue regeneration is a promising strategy for repairing tissue defects and functional reconstruction in periodontitis, a common disease that leads to the loss of alveolar bone and teeth. However, stem cell apoptosis, widely observed during tissue regeneration, impairs its efficiency. Therefore, the regulation of stem cell apoptosis is critical for improving regeneration efficiency. The LIM homeobox 8 gene LHX8, belongs to the LIM homeobox family, which was involved in tooth morphogenesis. Here, we found that LHX8 was significantly expressed in dental pulp. LHX8 knockdown significantly increased dental pulp mesenchymal stem cells (DPSCs) apoptosis, as confirmed by RT-PCR, western blotting, flow cytometry, and transmission electron microscopy. Additionally, LHX8 overexpression inhibited apoptosis and enhanced the osteo/odontogenic differentiation potential of hDPSCs in vitro. Furthermore, LHX8-overexpression could enhance the periodontal tissue regeneration efficiency of hDPSCs in mice with periodontitis. In conclusion, the present study indicates that LHX8 inhibits stem cell apoptosis and promotes functional tissue formation in stem cell-based tissue regeneration engineering, suggesting a new therapeutic target to increase the efficacy of periodontal tissue regeneration.

Abstract
Adipose-derived stromal cells (ADSCs) are promising stem cell sources for tissue engineering and cell-based therapy. However, long-term in vitro expansion of ADSCs impedes stemness maintenance, which is partly attributed to deprivation of their original microenvironment. Incompetent cells limit the therapeutic effects of ADSC-based clinical strategies. Therefore, reconstructing a more physiologically and physically relevant niche is an ideal strategy to address this issue and therefore facilitates the extensive application of ADSCs. Here, we transplanted separated ADSCs into local subcutaneous adipose tissues of nude mice as an in vivo cell culture model. We found that transplanted ADSCs maintained their primitive morphology and showed improved proliferation and delayed senescence compared to those of cells cultured in an incubator. Significantly increased expression of stemness-related markers and multilineage differentiation abilities were further observed in in vivo cultured ADSCs. Finally, sequencing revealed that genes whose expression differed between ADSCs obtained under in vivo and in vitro conditions were mainly located in the extracellular matrix and extracellular space and that these genes participate in regulating transcription and protein synthesis. Moreover, we found that an Egr1 signaling pathway might exert a crucial impact on controlling stemness properties. Our findings might collectively pave the way for ADSC-based applications.

Abstract
Osteoporosis is a disease characterized by loss of bone mass, where bones become fragile and more likely to fracture. Bone density begins to decrease at age 50, and a state of osteoporosis is defined by loss of more than 25%. Cellular senescence is a permanent arrest of normal cell cycle, while maintaining cell viability. The number of senescent cells increase with age. Since osteoporosis is an aging disease, it is natural to consider the question to what extend senescent cells induce bone density loss and osteoporosis. In this paper we use a mathematical model to address this question. We determine the percent of bone loss for men and women during age 50 to 100 years, and the results depend on the rate η of net formation of senescent cell, with η = 1 being the average rate. In the case η = 1, the model simulations are in agreement with empirical data. We also consider senolytic drugs, like fisetin and quercetin, that selectively eliminate senescent cells, and assess their efficacy in terms of reducing bone loss. For example, at η = 1, with estrogen hormonal therapy and early treatment with fisetin, bone density loss for women by age 75 is 23.4% (below osteoporosis), while with no treatment with fisetin it is 25.8% (osteoporosis); without even a treatment with estrogen hormonal therapy, bone loss of 25.3% occurs already at age 65.

Abstract
Articular cartilage damage still remains a major problem in orthopedical surgery. The development of tissue engineering techniques such as autologous chondrocyte implantation is a promising way to improve clinical outcomes. On the other hand, the clinical application of autologous chondrocytes has considerable limitations. Mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) from various tissues have been shown to possess chondrogenic differentiation potential, although to different degrees. In the present study, we assessed the alterations in chondrogenesis-related gene transcription rates and extracellular matrix deposition levels before and after the chondrogenic differentiation of MSCs in a 3D spheroid culture. MSCs were obtained from three different tissues: umbilical cord Wharton's jelly (WJMSC-Wharton's jelly mesenchymal stromal cells), adipose tissue (ATMSC-adipose tissue mesenchymal stromal cells), and the dental pulp of deciduous teeth (SHEDs-stem cells from human exfoliated deciduous teeth). Monolayer MSC cultures served as baseline controls. Newly formed 3D spheroids composed of MSCs previously grown in 2D cultures were precultured for 2 days in growth medium, and then, chondrogenic differentiation was induced by maintaining them in the TGF-β1-containing medium for 21 days. Among the MSC types studied, WJMSCs showed the most similarities with primary chondrocytes in terms of the upregulation of cartilage-specific gene expression. Interestingly, such upregulation occurred to some extent in all 3D spheroids, even prior to the addition of TGF-β1. These results confirm that the potential of Wharton's jelly is on par with adipose tissue as a valuable cell source for cartilage engineering applications as well as for the treatment of osteoarthritis. The 3D spheroid environment on its own acts as a trigger for the chondrogenic differentiation of MSCs.

Role of Mesenchymal Stem/Stromal Cells (MSCs) and MSC-Derived Extracellular Vesicles (EVs) in Prevention of Telomere Length Shortening, Cellular Senescence, and Accelerated Biological Aging. Bioengineering (Basel) 2024; 11:524.

Abstract
Biological aging is defined as a progressive decline in tissue function that eventually results in cell death. Accelerated biologic aging results when the telomere length is shortened prematurely secondary to damage from biological or environmental stressors, leading to a defective reparative mechanism. Stem cells therapy may have a potential role in influencing (counteract/ameliorate) biological aging and maintaining the function of the organism. Mesenchymal stem cells, also called mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) are multipotent stem cells of mesodermal origin that can differentiate into other types of cells, such as adipocytes, chondrocytes, and osteocytes. MSCs influence resident cells through the secretion of paracrine bioactive components such as cytokines and extracellular vesicles (EVs). This review examines the changes in telomere length, cellular senescence, and normal biological age, as well as the factors contributing to telomere shortening and accelerated biological aging. The role of MSCs-especially those derived from gestational tissues-in prevention of telomere shortening (TS) and accelerated biological aging is explored. In addition, the strategies to prevent MSC senescence and improve the antiaging therapeutic application of MSCs and MSC-derived EVs in influencing telomere length and cellular senescence are reviewed.

Abstract
Adipose-derived stem cells (ADSCs) have been proven to promote healing in diabetic wounds, which are one of the most serious chronic refractory wounds. However, reactive oxygen species (ROS) induced by high glucose (HG) lead to oxidative stress and aging in ADSCs, which limits the therapeutic effect of ADSCs. In this study, we investigated the role of GKT137831, a NOX1/4 inhibitor that can reduce ROS production, in protecting ADSCs from hyperglycemia and in diabetic wound healing. In vitro, ROS levels and NOX4 expression were increased after HG treatment of ADSCs, while the oxidative stress marker malondialdehyde was increased; mitochondrial membrane potential was decreased; inflammatory aging-related indicators such as p16, p21, matrix metalloproteinase-1 (MMP1), MMP3, interleukin-6, and β-galactosidase were increased; and migration was weakened. In vivo, we constructed a diabetic mouse wound model and found that the combination of ADSCs and GKT137831 synergistically promoted the 21-day wound healing rate, increased the expression of collagen and hydroxyproline, increased the number of blood vessels and the expression of CD31, and reduced the expression of interleukin-6, MMP1, MMP3, and p21. These results suggest that GKT137831 could protect ADSCs from oxidative stress and aging induced by HG and enhance the therapeutic effect of ADSCs on diabetic wounds.

Abstract
Diabetic foot ulcers (DFUs) are a prevalent and profoundly debilitating complication that afflicts individuals with diabetes mellitus (DM). These ulcers are associated with substantial morbidity, recurrence rates, disability, and mortality, imposing substantial economic, psychological, and medical burdens. Timely detection and intervention can mitigate the morbidity and disparities linked to DFU. Nevertheless, current therapeutic approaches for DFU continue to grapple with multifaceted limitations. A growing body of evidence emphasizes the crucial role of cellular senescence in the pathogenesis of chronic wounds. Interventions that try to delay cellular senescence, eliminate senescent cells (SnCs), or suppress the senescence-associated secretory phenotype (SASP) have shown promise for helping chronic wounds to heal. In this context, targeting cellular senescence emerges as a novel therapeutic strategy for DFU. In this comprehensive review, we look at the pathology and treatment of DFU in a systematic way. We also explain the growing importance of investigating SnCs in DFU and highlight the great potential of senotherapeutics that target SnCs in DFU treatment. The development of efficacious and safe senotherapeutics represents a pioneering therapeutic approach aimed at enhancing the quality of life for individuals affected by DFU.

Abstract
Cell-based therapies offer tremendous potential for skin flap regeneration. However, the hostile microenvironment of the injured tissue adversely affects the longevity and paracrine effects of the implanted cells, severely reducing their therapeutic effectiveness. Here, an injectable hydrogel (nGk) with reactive oxygen species (ROS) scavenging capability, which can amplify the cell viability and functions of encapsulated mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs), is employed to promote skin flap repair. nGk is formulated by dispersing manganese dioxide nanoparticles (MnO2 NPs) in a gelatin/κ-carrageenan hydrogel, which exhibits satisfactory injectable properties and undergoes a sol-gel phase transition at around 40 °C, leading to the formation of a solid gel at physiological temperature. MnO2 NPs enhance the mechanical properties of the hydrogel and give it the ability to scavenge ROS, thus providing a cell-protective system for MSCs. Cell culture studies show that nGk can mitigate the oxidative stress, improve cell viability, and boost stem cell paracrine function to promote angiogenesis. Furthermore, MSC-loaded nGk (nGk@MSCs) can improve the survival of skin flaps by promoting angiogenesis, reducing inflammatory reactions, and attenuating necrosis, providing an effective approach for tissue regeneration. Collectively, injectable nGk has substantial potential to enhance the therapeutic benefits of MSCs, making it a valuable delivery system for cell-based therapies.

[PMID: 38561906 DOI: 10.1111/jop.13532] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/19/2023] [Revised: 03/13/2024] [Accepted: 03/17/2024] [Indexed: 04/04/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND The differences between existing preclinical models and the tumor microenvironment in vivo are one of the significant challenges hindering cancer therapy development. Patient-derived tumor organoids (PDTO) can highly retain tumor heterogeneity. Thus, it provides a more reliable platform for research in tumor biology, new drug screening, and precision medicine. METHODS We conducted a systematic review to summarise the characteristics of the existing preclinical models, the advantages of patient-derived tumor organoids in reconstructing the tumor microenvironment, and the latest research progress. Moreover, this study deciphers organoid culture technology in the clinical precision treatment of head and neck cancer to achieve better transformation. Studies were identified through a comprehensive search of Ovid MEDLINE (Wolters Kluwer), PubMed (National Library of Medicine), web of Science (Thomson Reuters) and, Scopus (Elsevier) databases, without publication date or language restrictions. RESULTS In tumor development, the interaction between cellular and non-cellular components in the tumor microenvironment (TME) has a crucial role. Co-culture, Air-liquid interface culture, microfluidics, and decellularized matrix have depicted great potential in reconstructing the tumor microenvironment and simulating tumor genesis, development, and metastasis. CONCLUSION An accurate determination of stromal cells, immune cells, and extracellular matrix can be achieved by reconstructing the head and neck cancer tumor microenvironment using the PDTO model. Moreover, the interaction between head and neck cancer cells can also play an essential role in implementing the individualized precision treatment of head and neck cancer.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The effect of TiO2 nanotube morphology on the differentiation potency of senescent periodontal ligament stem cells was investigated. METHODS Two types of titanium sheets with TiO2 nanotube morphology (20V-NT and 70V-NT) were prepared via anodic oxidation at 20 and 70 V separately, and their surface morphology was observed. Young periodontal ligament stem cells were cultivated in an osteogenic induction medium, and the most effective surface morphology in promoting osteogenic differentiation was selected. RO3306 and Nutlin-3a were used to induce the aging of young periodontal ligament stem cells, and senescent periodontal ligament stem cells were obtained. The osteogenic differentiation of senescent periodontal ligament stem cells was induced, and the effect of surface morphology on osteogenic differentiation was observed. RESULTS Nanotube morphology was achieved on the surfaces of titanium sheets through anodic oxidation, and the diameters of the nanotubes increased with voltage. A significant difference in the effect of nanotube morphology was found among nanotubes with different diameters in the young periodontal ligament stem cells. The surface nanotube morphology of 20V-NT had a more significant effect that promoted osteogenic differentiation. Compared with a smooth titanium sheet, the surface nanotube morphology of 20V-NT increased the number of alkaline phosphatase-positive senescent periodontal ligament stem cells and promoted calcium deposition and the expression of osteogenic marker genes Runt-related transcription factor 2, osteopontin, and osteocalcin. CONCLUSIONS A special nanotube morphology enhances the differentiation ability of senescent periodontal ligament stem cells, provides an effective method for periodontal regeneration, and further improves the performance of implants.

Mechanism of Bazi Bushen capsule in delaying the senescence of mesenchymal stem cells based on network pharmacology and experimental validation. Heliyon 2024; 10:e27646. [PMID: 38509951 PMCID: PMC10950659 DOI: 10.1016/j.heliyon.2024.e27646] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/02/2023] [Revised: 03/04/2024] [Accepted: 03/05/2024] [Indexed: 03/22/2024] Open
Abstract
Ageing is becoming an increasingly serious problem; therefore, there is an urgent need to find safe and effective anti-ageing drugs. Aims To investigate the effects of Bazi Bushen capsule (BZBS) on the senescence of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) and explore its mechanism of action. Methods Network pharmacology was used to predict the targets of BZBS in delaying senescence in MSCs. For in vitro studies, MSCs were treated with D-gal, BZBS, and NMN, and cell viability, cell senescence, stemness-related genes, and cell cycle were studied using cell counting kit-8 (CCK-8) assay, SA-β-galactosidase (SA-β-gal) staining, Quantitative Real-Time PCR (qPCR) and flow cytometry (FCM), respectively. Alkaline phosphatase (ALP), alizarin red, and oil red staining were used to determine the osteogenic and lipid differentiation abilities of MSCs. Finally, the expression of senescence-related genes and cyclin-related factors was detected by qPCR and western blotting. Results Network pharmacological analysis suggested that BZBS delayed cell senescence by interfering in the cell cycle. Our in vitro studies suggested that BZBS could significantly increase cell viability (P < 0.01), decrease the quantity of β-galactosidase+ cells (P < 0.01), downregulate p16 and p21 (P < 0.05, P < 0.01), improve adipogenic and osteogenic differentiation, and upregulate Nanog, OCT4 and SOX2 genes (P < 0.05, P < 0.01) in senescent MSCs. Moreover, BZBS significantly reduced the proportion of senescent MSCs in the G0/G1 phase (P < 0.01) and enhanced the expression of CDK4, Cyclin D1, and E2F1 (P < 0.05, P < 0.01, respectively). Upon treatment with HY-50767A, a CDK4 inhibitor, the upregulation of E2F1 was no longer observed in the BZBS group. Conclusions BZBS can protect MSCs against D-gal-induced senescence, which may be associated with cell cycle regulation via the Cyclin D1/CDK4/E2F1 signalling pathway.

In vitro aging alters the gene expression and secretome composition of canine adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells. Front Vet Sci 2024; 11:1387174. [PMID: 38605926 PMCID: PMC11006985 DOI: 10.3389/fvets.2024.1387174] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/16/2024] [Accepted: 03/08/2024] [Indexed: 04/13/2024] Open
Abstract
Introduction Canine adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells (cAD-MSCs) hold therapeutic promise due to their regenerative potential, particularly within their secretome. However, concerns arise regarding the impact of in vitro cultivation necessitated for storing therapeutic doses, prompting this study to comprehensively explore the impact of in vitro aging on gene expression and secretome composition. Methods The study involved collecting abdominal adipose tissue samples from nine healthy female dogs, from which cAD-MSCs were extracted and cultured. Stem cells were validated through trilineage differentiation assays and flow cytometry immunophenotyping. Gene expression profiling using RT-qPCR array, and cAD-MSCs secretome LC-MS/MS analysis, were conducted at passages 3 and 6 to reveal gene expression and protein composition alterations during in vitro culture. Results and Discussion The results demonstrate that the gene expression and secretome composition of cAD-MSCs were impacted by in vitro aging. Among many alterations in gene expression between two passages, two significant downregulations were noted in the MSC-associated PTPRC and IL10 genes. While the majority of proteins and their functional characteristics were shared between passages, the influence of cell aging on secretome composition is highlighted by 10% of proteins being distinctively expressed in each passage, along with 21 significant up- and downregulations. The functional attributes of proteins detected in passage 3 demonstrated a greater inclination towards supporting the regenerative capacity of cAD-MSCs. Moreover, proteins in passage 6 exhibited a noteworthy correlation with the blood coagulation pathway, suggesting an elevated likelihood of coagulation events. To the best of our knowledge, this study presents the first original perspective on the changes in secretome composition that occur when cAD-MSCs age in vitro. Furthermore, it contributes to broadening the currently restricted knowledge base concerning the secretome of cAD-MSCs. In conclusion, our findings show that the regenerative potential of cAD-MSCs, as well as their secretome, may be compromised by in vitro aging. Therefore, our study suggests a preference for earlier passages when considering these cells for therapeutic applications.

Abstract
Human adipose-derived stromal cells (ADSCs) are an important resource for cell-based therapies. However, the dynamics of ADSCs after transplantation and their mechanisms of action in recipients remain unclear. Herein, we generated genetically engineered mouse ADSCs to clarify their biodistribution and post-transplantation status and to analyze their role in recipient mesenchymal tissue modeling. Immortalized ADSCs (iADSCs) retained ADSC characteristics such as stromal marker gene expression and differentiation potential. iADSCs expressing a fluorescent reporter gene were seeded into biocompatible nonwoven fabric sheets and transplanted into the dorsal subcutaneous region of neonatal mice. Transplanted donor ADSCs were distributed as CD90-positive stromal cells on the sheets and survived 1 month after transplantation. Although accumulation of T lymphocytes or macrophages inside the sheet was not observed with or without donor cells, earlier migration and accumulation of recipient blood vascular endothelial cells (ECs) inside the sheet was observed in the presence of donor cells. Thus, our mouse model can help in studying the interplay between donor ADSCs and recipient cells over a 1-month period. This system may be of value for assessing and screening bioengineered ADSCs in vivo for optimal cell-based therapies.

Abstract
Cellular senescence causes cell cycle arrest and promotes permanent cessation of proliferation. Since the senescence of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) reduces proliferation and multipotency and increases immunogenicity, aged MSCs are not suitable for cell therapy. Therefore, it is important to inhibit cellular senescence in MSCs. It has recently been reported that metabolites can control aging diseases. Therefore, we aimed to identify novel metabolites that regulate the replicative senescence in MSCs. Using a fecal metabolites library, we identified nervonic acid (NA) as a candidate metabolite for replicative senescence regulation. In replicative senescent MSCs, NA reduced senescence-associated β-galactosidase positive cells, the expression of senescence-related genes, as well as increased stemness and adipogenesis. Moreover, in non-senescent MSCs, NA treatment delayed senescence caused by sequential subculture and promoted proliferation. We confirmed, for the first time, that NA delayed and inhibited cellular senescence. Considering optimal concentration, duration, and timing of drug treatment, NA is a novel potential metabolite that can be used in the development of technologies that regulate cellular senescence.

Abstract
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) and its complications, including vascular senescence and progressive renal fibrosis, are associated with inflammation. Vascular senescence, in particular, has emerged as an instrumental mediator of vascular inflammation that potentially worsens renal function. Epigenetically regulated inflammation involving histone modification, DNA methylation, actions of microRNAs and other non-coding RNAs, and their reciprocal reactions during vascular senescence and inflammaging are underappreciated. Their synergistic effects can contribute to CKD progression. Vascular senotherapeutics or pharmacological anti-senescent therapies based on epigenetic machineries can therefore be plausible options for ameliorating vascular aging and even halting the worsening of renal fibrosis. These include histone deacetylase modulators, histone methyltransferase modulators, other histone modification effectors, DNA methyltransferase inhibitors, telomerase reverse transcriptase enhancers, microRNA mimic delivery, and small molecules with microRNA-regulating potentials. Some of these molecules have already been tested and have shown anecdotal evidence for treating uremic vasculopathy and renal fibrosis, supporting the feasibility of this approach.

Abstract
The fate of leukaemia stem cells (LSCs) is determined by both their inherent mechanisms and crosstalk with their niches. Although LSCs were confirmed to be eradicated by restarting senescence, the specific key regulators of LSC resistance to senescence and remodelling of the niche to obtain a microenvironment suitable for stemness remain unknown. Here, we found that RAB27B, a gene regulating exosome secretion, was overexpressed in LSCs and associated with the poor prognosis of acute myeloid leukaemia (AML) patients. The increased RAB27B in LSCs prevented their senescence and maintained their stemness in vitro and in vivo. Mechanically, the increased RAB27B expression in LSCs selectively promoted the loading and release of exosomes rich in senescence-inducing proteins by direct combination. Furthermore, RAB27B-regulated LSC-derived exosomes remodelled the niche and induced senescence of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) with increased RAB27B expression ex vivo and in vivo. The increased RAB27B in the senescent MSCs conversely promoted LSC maintenance ex vivo and in vivo via selective excretion of exosomes rich in stemness-promoting proteins. Therefore, we identified the specifically increased RAB27B in LSCs and their educated senescent MSCs as a hub molecule for LSC resistance to senescence and maintenance through crosstalk with its niche via selective exosome excretion.

Abstract
Stemness pertains to the intrinsic ability of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) to undergo self-renewal and differentiate into multiple lineages, while simultaneously impeding their differentiation and preserving crucial differentiating genes in a state of quiescence and equilibrium. Owing to their favorable attributes, including uncomplicated isolation protocols, ethical compliance, and ease of procurement, MSCs have become a focal point of inquiry in the domains of regenerative medicine and tissue engineering. As age increases or ex vivo cultivation is prolonged, the functionality of MSCs decreases and their stemness gradually diminishes, thereby limiting their potential therapeutic applications. Despite the existence of several uncertainties surrounding the comprehension of MSC stemness, considerable advancements have been achieved in the clarification of the potential mechanisms that lead to stemness loss, as well as the associated strategies for stemness maintenance. This comprehensive review provides a systematic overview of the factors influencing the preservation of MSC stemness, the molecular mechanisms governing it, the strategies for its maintenance, and the therapeutic potential associated with stemness. Finally, we underscore the obstacles and prospective avenues in present investigations, providing innovative perspectives and opportunities for the preservation and therapeutic utilization of MSC stemness.

Abstract
Craniofacial defects and dental tissue loss have significant negative impacts on the structure and function of jaws and face, often resulting in psychological issues in patients, emphasizing the urgent need for effective craniofacial tissue reconstruction. Unfortunately, natural regeneration of these tissues is limited. Dental-derived mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) have emerged as a promising resource for tissue engineering-based therapeutic approaches. However, the clinical outcomes of MSC-based transplantation have not met expectations due to various complex reasons, and cellular senescence is recognized as one of the potential mechanisms contributing to the suboptimal results. The quality of MSC decreases during large-scale in vitro expansion, and it is also influenced by the age and the health status of donors. To address these challenges, extensive efforts have been made to developing strategies to combat senescence in tissue engineering, leveraging on current knowledge of underlying mechanisms. This review aims to elucidate the impact of cell senescence in craniofacial and dental regeneration and provides an overview of state-of-the-art antisenescence strategies. We first discuss the potential factors that trigger cell senescence in craniofacial tissue engineering. Then we describe senescence biomarkers, monitoring methods for senescent MSCs, and their underlying molecular mechanisms. The primary focus of this review is on current strategies to inhibit and alleviate cell senescence in tissue engineering. We summarize the strategies concerning the prevention of cell senescence, senolysis, modulation of the senescent associated secretory phenotype, and reversal of senescent MSCs, offering promising opportunities to overcome the challenges associated with cell senescence in craniofacial tissue engineering.

Abstract
Vascular calcification (VC) has emerged as a key predictor of cardiovascular events in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). In recent years, an expanding body of research has put forth the concept of accelerated vascular aging among CKD patients, highlighting the significance of vascular cells senescence in the process of VC. Within the milieu of uremia, senescent vascular endothelial cells (VECs) release extracellular microvesicles (MV) that promote vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) senescence, thereby triggering the subsequent osteogenic phenotypic switch and ultimately contributing to the VC process. In addition, senescent vascular progenitor or stem cells with diminished ability to differentiate into VECs and VSMCS, compromise the repair of vascular integrity, on the other hand, release a cascade of molecules associated with senescence, collectively known as the senescence-associated secretory phenotype (SASP), perpetuating the senescence phenomenon. Furthermore, SASP triggers the recruitment of monocytes and macrophages, as well as adjacent VECs and VSMCs into a pro-adhesive and pro-inflammatory senescent state. This pro-inflammatory microenvironment niche not only impacts the functionality of immune cells but also influences the differentiation of myeloid immune cells, thereby amplifying the reduced ability to effectively clear senescent cells of senescent macrophages, promoted calcification of VSMCs. The objective of this paper is to provide a comprehensive review of the contribution of vascular cell senescence to the emergence and advancement of VC. Gaining a comprehensive understanding of the involvement of cellular senescence within the vessel wall is pivotal, especially when it comes to its intersection with VC. This knowledge is essential for advancing groundbreaking anti-aging therapies, aiming to effectively mitigate cardiovascular diseases.

Proliferation and Differentiation Potential of Bone Marrow-Derived Mesenchymal Stem Cells From Children With Polydactyly and Adults With Basal Joint Arthritis. Cell Transplant 2024; 33:9636897231221878. [PMID: 38164917 PMCID: PMC10762874 DOI: 10.1177/09636897231221878] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/30/2023] [Revised: 11/20/2023] [Accepted: 12/06/2023] [Indexed: 01/03/2024] Open
Abstract
This study compared the proliferation and differentiation potential of bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) derived from infants with polydactyly and adults with basal joint arthritis. The proliferation rate of adult and infant BMSCs was determined by the cell number changes and doubling times. The γH2AX immunofluorescence staining, age-related gene expression, senescence-associated β-galactosidase (SA-β-gal) staining were analyzed to determine the senescence state of adult and infant BMSCs. The expression levels of superoxide dismutases (SODs) and genes associated with various types of differentiation were measured using Real-Time Quantitative Polymerase Chain Reaction (RT-qPCR). Differentiation levels were evaluated through histochemical and immunohistochemical staining. The results showed that infant BMSCs had a significantly higher increase in cell numbers and faster doubling times compared with adult BMSCs. Infant BMSCs at late stages exhibited reduced γH2AX expression and SA-β-gal staining, indicating lower levels of senescence. The expression levels of senescence-related genes (p16, p21, and p53) in infant BMSCs were also lower than in adult BMSCs. In addition, infant BMSCs demonstrated higher antioxidative ability with elevated expression of SOD1, SOD2, and SOD3 compared with adult BMSCs. In terms of differentiation potential, infant BMSCs outperformed adult BMSCs in chondrogenesis, as indicated by higher expression levels of chondrogenic genes (SOX9, COL2, and COL10) and positive immunohistochemical staining. Moreover, differentiated cells derived from infant BMSCs exhibited significantly higher expression levels of osteogenic, tenogenic, hepatogenic, and neurogenic genes compared with those derived from adult BMSCs. Histochemical and immunofluorescence staining confirmed these findings. However, adult BMSCs showed lower adipogenic differentiation potential compared with infant BMSCs. Overall, infant BMSCs demonstrated superior characteristics, including higher proliferation rates, enhanced antioxidative activity, and greater differentiation potential into various lineages. They also exhibited reduced cellular senescence. These findings, within the context of cellular differentiation, suggest potential implications for the use of allogeneic BMSC transplantation, emphasizing the need for further in vivo investigation.

Abstract
The application of adult mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) in the field of tissue regeneration is of increasing interest to the scientific community. In particular, scaffolds and/or hydrogel based on glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) play a pivotal role due to their ability to support the in vitro growth and differentiation of MSCs toward a specific phenotype. Here, we describe different possible approaches to develop GAGs-based biomaterials, hydrogel, and polymeric viscous solutions in order to assess/develop a suitable biomimetic environment. To sustain MSCs viability and promote their differentiation for potential therapeutic applications.

Abstract
Background/purpose Aging severely impairs the beneficial effects of human dental pulp stem cells (hDPSCs) on cartilage regeneration. Lysine demethylase 3A (KDM3A) is involved in regulating mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) senescence and bone aging. In this study, we investigated the role of KDM3A in hDPSCs aging and whether KDM3A could rejuvenate aged hDPSCs to enhance their chondrogenic differentiation capacity. Materials and methods The cellular aging of hDPSCs was evaluated by senescence-associated β-galactosidase (SA-β-gal) staining. Protein levels were determined using Western blot analysis. KDM3A was overexpressed in aged hDPSCs by lentivirus infection. Quantitative reverse-transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR) were used to determine the mRNA levels of stemness markers. Toluidine blue staining was used to evaluate the effect of KDM3A overexpression on the chondrogenic differentiation of aged hDPSCs. Results hDPSCs at passage 12 or treated with etoposide exhibited augmented cellular senescence as evidenced by increased SA-β-gal activity. KDM3A was significantly increased during senescence of hDPSCs. Overexpression of KDM3A did not affect the stemness properties but significantly promoted the chondrogenic differentiation of aged hDPSCs. Conclusion Our findings indicate that KDM3A plays an important role in the maintenance of the chondrogenic differentiation capacity of aged hDPSCs and suggest that therapies targeting KDM3A may be a novel strategy to rejuvenate aged hDPSCs.

Abstract
Undoubtedly, mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are the most common cell therapy candidates in clinical research and therapy. They not only exert considerable therapeutic effects to alleviate inflammation and promote regeneration, but also show low-immunogenicity properties, which ensure their safety following allogeneic transplantation. Thanks to the necessity of providing a sufficient number of MSCs to achieve clinically efficient outcomes, prolonged in vitro cultivation is indisputable. However, either following long-term in vitro expansion or aging in elderly individuals, MSCs face cellular senescence. Senescent MSCs undergo an impairment in their function and therapeutic capacities and secrete degenerative factors which negatively affect young MSCs. To this end, designing novel investigations to further elucidate cellular senescence and to pave the way toward finding new strategies to reverse senescence is highly demanded. In this review, we will concisely discuss current progress on the detailed mechanisms of MSC senescence and various inflicted changes following aging in MSC. We will also shed light on the examined strategies underlying monitoring and reversing senescence in MSCs to bypass the comprised therapeutic efficacy of the senescent MSCs.

Abstract
Temporomandibular joint (TMJ) cartilage repair poses a considerable clinical challenge, and tissue engineering has emerged as a promising solution. In this study, we developed an injectable reactive oxygen species (ROS)-responsive multifunctional hydrogel (RDGel) to encapsulate dental pulp stem cells (DPSCs/RDGel in short) for the targeted repair of condylar cartilage defect. The DPSCs/RDGel composite exhibited a synergistic effect in the elimination of TMJ OA (osteoarthritis) inflammation via the interaction between the hydrogel component and the DPSCs. We first demonstrated the applicability and biocompatibility of RDGel. RDGel encapsulation could enhance the anti-apoptotic ability of DPSCs by inhibiting P38/P53 mitochondrial apoptotic signal in vitro. We also proved that the utilization of DPSCs/RDGel composite effectively enhanced the expression of TMJOA cartilage matrix and promoted subchondral bone structure in vivo. Subsequently, we observed the synergistic improvement of DPSCs/RDGel composite on the oxidative stress microenvironment of TMJOA and its regulation and promotion of M2 polarization, thereby confirmed that M2 macrophages further promoted the condylar cartilage repair of DPSCs. This is the first time application of DPSCs/RDGel composite for the targeted repair of TMJOA condylar cartilage defects, presenting a novel and promising avenue for cell-based therapy.

Abstract
RNA modifications, known as the "epitranscriptome", represent a key layer of regulation that influences a wide array of biological processes in mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs). These modifications, catalyzed by specific enzymes, often termed "writers", "readers", and "erasers", can dynamically alter the MSCs' transcriptomic landscape, thereby modulating cell differentiation, proliferation, and responses to environmental cues. These enzymes include members of the classes METTL, IGF2BP, WTAP, YTHD, FTO, NAT, and others. Many of these RNA-modifying agents are active during MSC lineage differentiation. This review provides a comprehensive overview of the current understanding of different RNA modifications in MSCs, their roles in regulating stem cell behavior, and their implications in MSC-based therapies. It delves into how RNA modifications impact MSC biology, the functional significance of individual modifications, and the complex interplay among these modifications. We further discuss how these intricate regulatory mechanisms contribute to the functional diversity of MSCs, and how they might be harnessed for therapeutic applications. The review also highlights current challenges and potential future directions in the study of RNA modifications in MSCs, emphasizing the need for innovative tools to precisely map these modifications and decipher their context-specific effects. Collectively, this work paves the way for a deeper understanding of the role of the epitranscriptome in MSC biology, potentially advancing therapeutic strategies in regenerative medicine and MSC-based therapies.

Abstract
Placenta-derived mesenchymal stem cells (PL-MSCs) have therapeutic potential in various clinical contexts due to their regenerative and immunomodulatory properties. However, with increasing age or extensive in vitro culture, their viability and function are gradually lost, thus restricting their therapeutic application. The primary cause of this deterioration is oxidative injury from free radicals. Therefore, enhancing cell viability and restoring cellular repair mechanisms of PL-MSCs in an oxidative stress environment are crucial in this context. Fucoxanthin, a carotenoid derived from brown seaweed, demonstrates antioxidant activity by increasing the production of antioxidant enzymes and lowering the levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS). This study aimed to determine whether fucoxanthin protects PL-MSCs from hydrogen peroxide (H2O2)-induced oxidative stress. After characterization, PL-MSCs were co-treated with fucoxanthin and H2O2 for 24 h (co-treatment) or pre-treated with fucoxanthin for 24 h followed by H2O2 for 24 h (pre-treatment). The effects of fucoxanthin on cell viability and proliferation were examined using an MTT assay. The expression of antioxidant enzymes, PI3K/Akt/Nrf-2 and intracellular ROS production were investigated in fucoxanthin-treated PL-MSCs compared to the untreated group. The gene expression and involvement of specific pathways in the cytoprotective effect of fucoxanthin were investigated by high-throughput NanoString nCounter analysis. The results demonstrated that co-treatment and pre-treatment with fucoxanthin restored the viability and proliferative capacity of PL-MSCs. Fucoxanthin treatment increased the expression of antioxidant enzymes in PL-MSCs cultured under oxidative stress conditions and decreased intracellular ROS accumulation. Markedly, fucoxanthin treatment could restore PI3K/Akt/Nrf-2 expression in H2O2-treated PL-MSCs. High-throughput analysis revealed up-regulation of genes involved in cell survival pathways, including cell cycle and proliferation, DNA damage repair pathways, and down-regulation of genes in apoptosis and autophagy pathways. This study demonstrated that fucoxanthin protects and rescues PL-MSCs from oxidative stress damage through the PI3K/Akt/Nrf-2 pathway. Our data provide the supporting evidence for the use of fucoxanthin as an antioxidant cytoprotective agent to improve the viability and proliferation capacity of PL-MSCs both in vitro and in vivo required to increase the effectiveness of MSC expansion for therapeutic applications.

Stem Cell Res Ther 2023; 14:373. [PMID: 38111010 PMCID: PMC10729581 DOI: 10.1186/s13287-023-03599-8] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/03/2023] [Accepted: 12/04/2023] [Indexed: 12/20/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Three-dimensional (3D) cell culture is widely used in various fields of cell biology. In comparison to conventional two-dimensional (2D) cell culture, 3D cell culture facilitates a more accurate replication of the in vivo microenvironment, which is essential for obtaining more relevant results. The application of 3D cell culture techniques in regenerative medicine, particularly in mesenchymal stem cell (MSC)-based research, has been extensively studied. Many of these studies focus on the enhanced paracrine activity of MSCs cultured in 3D environments. However, few focus on the cellular processes that occur during 3D cultivation. METHODS In this work, we studied the changes occurring within 3D-cultured MSCs (3D-MSCs). Specifically, we examined the expression of numerous senescent-associated markers, the actin cytoskeleton structure, the architecture of the Golgi apparatus and the localization of mTOR, one of the main positive regulators of replicative senescence. In addition, we assessed whether the selective elimination of senescent cells occurs upon 3D culturing by using cell sorting based on autofluorescence. RESULTS Our findings indicate that 3D-MSCs were able to lose replicative senescence markers under 3D cell culture conditions. We observed changes in actin cytoskeleton structure, Golgi apparatus architecture and revealed that 3D cultivation leads to the nuclear localization of mTOR, resulting in a decrease in its active cytoplasmic form. Additionally, our findings provide evidence that 3D cell culture promotes the phenotypic reversion of senescent cell phenotype rather than their removal from the bulk population. CONCLUSION These novel insights into the biology of 3D-MSCs can be applied to research in regenerative medicine to overcome replicative senescence and MSC heterogeneity as they often pose significant concerns regarding safety and effectiveness for therapeutic purposes.

Age-related changes in human bone marrow mesenchymal stromal cells: morphology, gene expression profile, immunomodulatory activity and miRNA expression. Front Immunol 2023; 14:1267550.

Abstract
Introduction Mesenchymal stromal cells (MSC) are one of the main cellular components of bone marrow (BM) microenvironment. MSC play a key role in tissue regeneration, but they are also capable of immunomodulating activity. With host aging, MSC undergo age-related changes, which alter these functions, contributing to the set-up of "inflammaging", which is known to be the basis for the development of several diseases of the elderly, including cancer. However, there's few data investigating this facet of MSC, mainly obtained using murine models or replicative senescence. The aim of this research was to identify morphological, molecular and functional alterations of human bone marrow-derived MSC from young (yBM-MSC) and old (oBM-MSC) healthy donors. Methods MSC were identified by analysis of cell-surface markers according to the ISCT criteria. To evaluate response to inflammatory status, MSC were incubated for 24h in the presence of IL-1β, IFN-α, IFN-ɣ and TNF-α. Macrophages were obtained by differentiation of THP-1 cells through PMA exposure. For M1 polarization experiments, a 24h incubation with LPS and IFN-ɣ was performed. MSC were plated at the bottom of the co-culture transwell system for all the time of cytokine exposure. Gene expression was evaluated by real-time PCR after RNA extraction from BM-MSC or THP-1 culture. Secreted cytokines levels were quantitated through ELISA assays. Results Aging MSC display changes in size, morphology and granularity. Higher levels of β-Gal, reactive oxygen species (ROS), IL-6 and IL-8 and impaired colony-forming and cell cycle progression abilities were found in oBM-MSC. Gene expression profile seems to vary according to subjects' age and particularly in oBM-MSC seem to be characterized by an impaired immunomodulating activity, with a reduced inhibition of macrophage M1 status. The comparative analysis of microRNA (miRNA) expression in yBM-MSC and oBM-MSC revealed a significant difference for miRNA known to be involved in macrophage polarization and particularly miR-193b-3p expression is strongly increased after co-culture of macrophages with yBM-MSC. Conclusion There are profound differences in terms of morphology, gene and miRNA expression and immunomodulating properties among yBM-MSC and oBM-MSC, supporting the critical role of aging BM microenvironment on senescence, immune-mediated disorders and cancer pathogenesis.

Abstract
Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) possess the ability to self-renew and differentiate into multiple cell types, making them highly suitable for use as seed cells in tissue engineering. These can be derived from various sources and have been found to play crucial roles in several physiological processes, such as tissue repair, immune regulation, and intercellular communication. However, the limited capacity for cell proliferation and the secretion of senescence-associated secreted phenotypes (SASPs) pose challenges for the clinical application of MSCs. In this review, we provide a comprehensive summary of the senescence characteristics of MSCs and examine the different features of cellular microenvironments studied thus far. Additionally, we discuss the mechanisms by which cellular microenvironments regulate the senescence process of MSCs, offering insights into preserving their functionality and enhancing their effectiveness.

Abstract
Mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) are a subset of heterogeneous, non-hematopoietic fibroblast-like cells which play important roles in tissue repair, inflammation, and immune modulation. MSCs residing in the bone marrow microenvironment (BMME) functionally interact with hematopoietic stem progenitor cells regulating hematopoiesis. However, MSCs have also emerged in recent years as key regulators of the tumor microenvironment. Indeed, they are now considered active players in the pathophysiology of hematologic malignancies rather than passive bystanders in the hematopoietic microenvironment. Once a malignant event occurs, the BMME acquires cellular, molecular, and epigenetic abnormalities affecting tumor growth and progression. In this context, MSC behavior is affected by signals coming from cancer cells. Furthermore, it has been shown that stromal cells themselves play a major role in several hematological malignancies' pathogenesis. This bidirectional crosstalk creates a functional tumor niche unit wherein tumor cells acquire a selective advantage over their normal counterparts and are protected from drug treatment. It is therefore of critical importance to unveil the underlying mechanisms which activate a protumor phenotype of MSCs for defining the unmasked vulnerabilities of hematological cancer cells which could be pharmacologically exploited to disrupt tumor/MSC coupling. The present review focuses on the current knowledge about MSC dysfunction mechanisms in the BMME of hematological cancers, sustaining tumor growth, immune escape, and cancer progression.

Abstract
Survival of olfactory mucosal mesenchymal stem cells (OM-MSCs) remains the low level in the cerebral microenvironment during intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH). This article aims to reveal the differential expression profile of ICH-stimulated OM-MSCs based on whole transcriptome sequence analysis. OM-MSCs were isolated from 6-week C57BL/6 mice. Morphology and surface markers of OM-MSCs were investigated by light microscope and flow cytometry, respectively. OM-MSCs were incubated with 20 U/mL thrombin for 24 h to mimic ICH-induced injury in vitro. Total RNA was extracted for whole transcriptome sequencing and qPCR. OM-MSCs were characterized by negative for CD45 and CD34, and positive for CD44, CD90 and CD29. Thrombin led to decrease in cell viability and increase in senescence and apoptosis in OM-MSCs. In total, 736 lncRNAs (upregulated: 393; downregulated: 343), 21 miRNAs (upregulated: 7; downregulated: 14) and 807 mRNAs (upregulated: 422; downregulated: 385) were identified. GO and KEGG pathways were enriched in protein heterodimerization activity, trans-synaptic signaling, membrane pathway, alcohol metabolic process, organic hydroxy compound biosynthesis process, secondary alcohol metabolic process, alcoholism, neutrophil extracellular trap formation, systemic lupus erythematosus, metabolic process, steroid biosynthesis and drug metabolism-cytochrome P450. 200 lncRNA-miRNA-mRNA were predicted in thrombin-induced OM-MSCs. Based on qPCR, we validated COMMD1B, MOAP1, lncRNA CAPN15, lncRNA ALDH1L2, miR-3473b and miR-1964-3p were upregulated in thrombin-stimulated OM-MSCs, and GM20431, lncRNA GAPDH and miR-122b-3p were downregulated. Our findings provide novel understanding for thrombin-induced injury in OM-MSCs. Differently-expressed RNAs can be the targets of improving therapeutic application of OM-MSCs.

Abstract
Mitochondrial dysfunction plays a crucial role in the development of glucocorticoid-induced osteoporosis (GIO). Cytidine monophosphate kinase 2 (Cmpk2), an essential mitochondria-associated gene, promotes the production of free mitochondrial DNA, which leads to the formation of inflammasome-mediated inflammatory factors. However, the specific role of Cmpk2 in GIO remains unclear. In this study, we report that glucocorticoids induce cellular senescence within the bone, particularly in bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells and preosteoblasts. We discovered that glucocorticoids cause mitochondrial dysfunction in preosteoblasts, increasing cellular senescence. Moreover, we observed elevated expression of Cmpk2 in preosteoblasts following glucocorticoid exposure. Inhibiting Cmpk2 expression alleviates glucocorticoid-induced cellular senescence and promotes osteogenic differentiation by improving mitochondrial function. Our study uncovers new mechanisms underlying glucocorticoid-induced senescence in stem cells and preosteoblasts, highlighting the potential of inhibiting the mitochondrial gene Cmpk2 to reduce senescence and enhance osteogenic differentiation. This finding offers a potential therapeutic approach for the treatment of GIO.

Abstract
The craniofacial bones provide structural support for the skull and accommodate the vulnerable brain tissue with a protective cavity. The bone tissue undergoes constant turnover, which relies on skeletal stem cells (SSCs) and/or mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) and their niches. SSCs/MSCs and their perivascular niche within the bone marrow are well characterized in long bones. As for cranial bones, besides bone marrow, the suture mesenchyme has been identified as a unique niche for SSCs/MSCs of craniofacial bones. However, a comprehensive study of the two different cranial stem cell niches at single-cell resolution is still lacking. In addition, during the progression of aging, age-associated changes in cranial stem cell niches and resident cells remain uncovered. In this study, we investigated age-related changes in cranial stem cell niches via single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq). The transcriptomic profiles and cellular compositions have been delineated, indicating alterations of the cranial bone marrow microenvironment influenced by inflammaging. Moreover, we identified a senescent mesenchymal cell subcluster and several age-related immune cell subclusters by reclustering and pseudotime trajectory analysis, which might be closely linked to inflammaging. Finally, differentially expressed genes (DEGs) and cell-cell communications were analyzed during aging, revealing potential regulatory factors. Overall, this work highlights the age-related changes in cranial stem cell niches, which deepens the current understanding of cranial bone and suture biology and may provide therapeutic targets for antiaging and regenerative medicine.

Abstract
Aging is a natural, gradual, and inevitable process associated with a series of changes at the molecular, cellular, and tissue levels that can lead to an increased risk of many diseases, including cancer. The most significant changes at the genomic level (DNA damage, telomere shortening, epigenetic changes) and non-genomic changes are referred to as hallmarks of aging. The hallmarks of aging and cancer are intertwined. Many studies have focused on genomic hallmarks, but non-genomic hallmarks are also important and may additionally cause genomic damage and increase the expression of genomic hallmarks. Understanding the non-genomic hallmarks of aging and cancer, and how they are intertwined, may lead to the development of approaches that could influence these hallmarks and thus function not only to slow aging but also to prevent cancer. In this review, we focus on non-genomic changes. We discuss cell senescence, disruption of proteostasis, deregualation of nutrient sensing, dysregulation of immune system function, intercellular communication, mitochondrial dysfunction, stem cell exhaustion and dysbiosis.

Abstract
Mesenchymal stem/stromal cells (MSCs), a class of cells with proliferative, immunomodulatory, and reparative functions, have shown therapeutic potential in a variety of systemic diseases, including metabolic syndrome (MetS). The cluster of morbidities that constitute MetS might be particularly amenable for the application of MSCs, which employ an arsenal of reparative actions to target multiple pathogenic pathways simultaneously. Preclinical studies have shown that MSCs can reverse pathological changes in MetS mainly by inhibiting inflammation, improving insulin resistance, regulating glycolipid metabolism, and protecting organ function. However, several challenges remain to overcome before MSCs can be applied for treating MetS. For example, the merits of autologous versus allogeneic MSCs sources remain unclear, particularly with autologous MSCs obtained from the noxious MetS milieu. The distinct characteristics and relative efficacy of MSCs harvested from different tissue sources also require clarification. Moreover, to improve the therapeutic efficacy of MSCs, investigators have explored several approaches that improved therapeutic efficacy but may involve potential safety concerns. This review summarized the potentially useful MSCs strategy for treating MetS, as well as some hurdles that remain to be overcome. In particular, larger-scale studies are needed to determine the therapeutic efficacy and safety of MSCs for clinical application.
