Abstract
Recent studies have revealed that glioma-associated mesenchymal stem cells play instrumental roles in tumorigenesis and tumour progression and cannot be ignored as a cellular component of the glioma microenvironment. Nevertheless, the origin of these cells and their roles are poorly understood. The only relevant studies have shown that glioma-associated mesenchymal stem cells play a large role in promoting tumour proliferation, invasion and angiogenesis. This review provides a comprehensive summary of their discovery and definition, origin, differences from other tissue-derived mesenchymal stem cells, spatial distribution, functions and prognostic and therapeutic opportunities to deepen the understanding of these cells and provide new insight into the treatment of glioma.

Abstract
Inflammatory pathways involving Mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) play an important role in Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) infection. H37Rv (Rv) is a standard virulent strain, however, H37Ra (Ra) is a strain with reduced virulence. Interleukins and chemokines production are known to promote inflammation resistance in mammalian cells and is recently reported to regulate mycobacterial immunopathogenesis via inflammatory responses. MSCs are very important cells during Mtb infection. However, the different expressions of interleukins and chemokines in the process of Mtb-infected MSCs between Ra and Rv remain unclear. We used the techniques of RNA-Seq, Q-RT-PCR, ELISA, and Western Blotting. We have shown that Rv infection significantly increased mRNA expressions of Mndal, Gdap10, Bmp2, and Lif, thereby increasing more differentiation of MSCs compared with Ra infection in MSCs. Further investigation into the possible mechanisms, we found that Rv infection enhanced more inflammatory response (Mmp10, Mmp3, and Ptgs2) through more activation of the TLR2-MAP3K1-JNK pathway than did Ra infection in MSCs. Further action showed that Rv infection enhanced more Il1α, Il6, Il33, Cxcl2, Ccl3, and Ackr3 production than did Ra infection. Rv infection showed more expressions of Mmp10, Mmp3, Ptgs2, Il1α, Il6, Il33, Cxcl2, Ccl3, and Ackr3 possibly through more active TLR2-MAP3K1-JNK pathway than did Ra infection in MSCs. MSCs may therefore be a new candidate for the prevention and treatment of tuberculosis.

Abstract
Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) play diverse roles ranging from regeneration and wound healing to immune signaling. Recent investigations have indicated the crucial role of these multipotent stem cells in regulating various aspects of the immune system. MSCs express unique signaling molecules and secrete various soluble factors that play critical roles in modulating and shaping immune responses, and in some other cases, MSCs can also exert direct antimicrobial effects, thereby helping with the eradication of invading organisms. Recently, it has been demonstrated that MSCs are recruited at the periphery of the granuloma containing Mycobacterium tuberculosis and exert "Janus"-like functions by harboring pathogens and mediating host protective immune responses. This leads to the establishment of a dynamic balance between the host and the pathogen. MSCs function through various immunomodulatory factors such as nitric oxide (NO), IDO, and immunosuppressive cytokines. Recently, our group has shown that M.tb uses MSCs as a niche to evade host protective immune surveillance mechanisms and establish dormancy. MSCs also express a large number of ABC efflux pumps; therefore, dormant M.tb residing in MSCs are exposed to a suboptimal dose of drugs. Therefore, it is highly likely that drug resistance is coupled with dormancy and originates within MSCs. In this review, we discussed various immunomodulatory properties of MSCs, their interactions with important immune cells, and soluble factors. We also discussed the possible roles of MSCs in the outcome of multiple infections and in shaping the immune system, which may provide insight into therapeutic approaches using these cells in different infection models.

Abstract
Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs), as adult multipotent cells, possess considerable regenerative and anti-neoplastic effects, from inducing apoptosis in the cancer cells to reducing multidrug resistance that bring them up as an appropriate alternative for cancer treatment. These cells can alter the behavior of cancer cells, the condition of the tumor microenvironment, and the activity of immune cells that result in tumor regression. It has been observed that during inflammatory conditions, a well-known feature of the tumor microenvironment, the MSCs produce and release some molecules called “antimicrobial peptides (AMPs)” with demonstrated anti-neoplastic effects. These peptides have remarkable targeted anticancer effects by attaching to the negatively charged membrane of neoplastic cells, disrupting the membrane, and interfering with intracellular pathways. Therefore, AMPs could be considered as a part of the wide-ranging anti-neoplastic effects of MSCs. This review focuses on the possible anti-neoplastic effects of MSCs-derived AMPs and their mechanisms. It also discusses preconditioning approaches and using exosomes to enhance AMP production and delivery from MSCs to cancer cells. Besides, the clinical administration of MSCs-derived AMPs, along with their challenges in clinical practice, were debated.

Abstract
Adult stem cells are characterized not only by their regenerative and immunomodulatory capacity but also by their therapeutic potential in various pathologies that include hematological malignancies, cancer, and autoimmune and inflammatory diseases, among others. However, these cells seem to play a paradoxical role during the development of the immune response in some infectious diseases. As an example, Candida albicans can induce the proliferation and differentiation of hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) and their progenitors, a process known as emergency hematopoiesis. Moreover, Aspergillus fumigatus and C. albicans, once recognized by mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs), can induce an anti-inflammatory or proinflammatory profile, respectively, and, in turn, these cells can inhibit the growth of these fungal pathogens. Additionally, the transplantation of MSCs, in an experimental pulmonary model of paracoccidioidomycosis, has been shown to exacerbate the inflammatory response. More recently, in vitro studies have shown that MSCs recognize Paracoccidioides brasiliensis through a mechanism mediated by toll-like receptor (TLR)2, TLR4, and Dectin-1, which, in turn, induces a proinflammatory profile. This review describes the main mechanisms and immunomodulatory properties of HSCs and MSCs during infections caused by some medically important fungal pathogens described so far in literature.

Abstract
There is an urgent need for new antimicrobial strategies for treating complex infections and emerging pathogens. Human mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) are adult multipotent cells with antimicrobial properties, mediated through direct bactericidal activity and modulation of host innate and adaptive immune cells. More than 30 in vivo studies have reported on the use of human MSCs for the treatment of infectious diseases, with many more studies of animal MSCs in same-species models of infection. MSCs demonstrate potent antimicrobial effects against the major classes of human pathogens (bacteria, viruses, fungi, and parasites) across a wide range of infection models. Mechanistic studies have yielded important insight into their immunomodulatory and bactericidal activity, which can be enhanced through various forms of preconditioning. MSCs are being investigated in over 80 clinical trials for difficult-to-treat infectious diseases, including sepsis and pulmonary, intra-abdominal, cutaneous, and viral infections. Completed trials consistently report MSCs to be safe and well tolerated, with signals of efficacy against some infectious diseases. Although significant obstacles must be overcome to produce a standardized, affordable, clinical-grade cell therapy, these studies suggest that MSCs may have particular potential as an adjunct therapy in complex or resistant infections.

Abstract
Klebsiella pneumoniae is a common cause of Gram-negative pneumonia. The spread of antibiotic-resistant and hypervirulent strains has made treatment more challenging. This study sought to determine the immunomodulatory, antibacterial, and therapeutic potential of purified murine stem cell Ag-1+ (Sca-1+) lung mesenchymal stem cells (LMSCs) using in vitro cell culture and an in vivo mouse model of pneumonia caused by K pneumoniae. Sca-1+ LMSCs are plastic adherent, possess colony-forming capacity, express mesenchymal stem cell markers, differentiate into osteogenic and adipogenic lineages in vitro, and exhibit a high proliferative capacity. Further, these Sca-1+ LMSCs are morphologically similar to fibroblasts but differ ultrastructurally. Moreover, Sca-1+ LMSCs have the capacity to inhibit LPS-induced secretion of inflammatory cytokines by bone marrow-derived macrophages and neutrophils in vitro. Sca-1+ LMSCs inhibit the growth of K pneumoniae more potently than do neutrophils. Sca-1+ LMSCs also possess the intrinsic ability to phagocytize and kill K. pneumoniae intracellularly. Whereas the induction of autophagy promotes bacterial replication, inhibition of autophagy enhances the intracellular clearance of K. pneumoniae in Sca-1+ LMSCs during the early time of infection. Adoptive transfer of Sca-1+ LMSCs in K. pneumoniae-infected mice improved survival, reduced inflammatory cells in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid, reduced inflammatory cytokine levels and pathological lesions in the lung, and enhanced bacterial clearance in the lung and in extrapulmonary organs. To our knowledge, these results together illustrate for the first time the protective role of LMSCs in bacterial pneumonia.

Abstract
The therapeutic value of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) for the treatment of infectious diseases and the repair of disease-induced tissue damage has been explored extensively. MSCs inhibit inflammation, reduce pathogen load and tissue damage encountered during infectious diseases through the secretion of antimicrobial factors for pathogen clearance and they phagocytose certain bacteria themselves. MSCs dampen tissue damage during infection by downregulating the levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines, and inhibiting the excessive recruitment of neutrophils and proliferation of T cells at the site of injury. MSCs aid in the regeneration of damaged tissue by differentiating into the damaged cell types or by releasing paracrine factors that direct tissue regeneration, differentiation, and wound healing. In this review, we discuss in detail the various mechanisms by which MSCs help combat pathogens, tissue damage associated with infectious diseases, and challenges in utilizing MSCs for therapy.

Abstract
Following their discovery over 50 years ago, mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) have become one of the most studied cellular therapeutic products by both academia and industry due to their regenerative potential and immunomodulatory properties. The promise of MSCs as a therapeutic modality has been demonstrated by preclinical data yet has not translated to consistent, successful clinical trial results in humans. Despite the disparities across the field, MSC shareholders are unified under one common goal-to use MSCs as a therapeutic modality to improve the quality of life for those suffering from a malady in which the standard of care is suboptimal or no longer effective. Currently, there is no Food and Drug Administration (FDA)-approved MSC therapy on the market in the United States although several MSC products have been granted regulatory approval in other countries. In this review, we intend to identify hurdles that are impeding therapeutic progress and discuss strategies that may aid in accomplishing this universal goal of widespread therapeutic use.

Abstract
Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb), the causative organism of pulmonary tuberculosis (PTB) now infects more than half of the world population. The efficient transmission strategy of the pathogen includes first remaining dormant inside the infected host, next undergoing reactivation to cause post-primary tuberculosis of the lungs (PPTBL) and then transmit via aerosol to the community. In this review, we are exploring recent findings on the role of bone marrow (BM) stem cell niche in Mtb dormancy and reactivation that may underlie the mechanisms of PPTBL development. We suggest that pathogen's interaction with the stem cell niche may be relevant in potential inflammation induced PPTBL reactivation, which need significant research attention for the future development of novel preventive and therapeutic strategies for PPTBL, especially in a post COVID-19 pandemic world. Finally, we put forward potential animal models to study the stem cell basis of Mtb dormancy and reactivation.

Abstract
The lengthy TB chemotherapeutic regimen, resulting in the emergence of drug resistance strains, poses a serious problem in the cure of the disease. Further, one-quarter of the world's population is infected with dormant M.tb, which creates a lifetime risk of reactivation. M.tb has a remarkable tendency to escape the host immune responses by hiding in unconventional niches. Recent studies have shown that bone-marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BM-MSCs) can serve as a reservoir of the pathogen and have been suggested to keep them beyond the reach of anti-TB drugs. In this study, we have shown that M.tb infects and grows inside BM-MSCs and were unresponsive to the anti-TB drugs rifampicin and isoniazid when compared to the pathogen residing inside THP-1 macrophages. It was further shown that the ABCG2 efflux pumps of the BM-MSCs were upregulated upon exposure to rifampicin, which may be the contributing factor for the antibiotic unresponsiveness of the bacteria inside these cells. Subsequently, it was shown that inhibition of ABCG2 efflux pumps along with administration of anti-TB drugs led to an increased susceptibility and consequently an enhanced killing of the M.tb inside BM-MSCs. These findings for the first time show that the MIC99 values of anti-TB drugs increase many folds for the M.tb residing in BM-MSCs as compared to M.tb residing inside macrophages and the involvement of ABCG2 efflux pumps in this phenomenon. Our study substantiates that these BM-MSCs acts as a useful niche for M.tb wherein they can survive by escaping the antibiotic assault that can be attributed to the host ABCG2 efflux pumps. Inhibiting these efflux pumps can be an attractive adjunctive chemotherapy to eliminate the bacteria from this protective niche.

Abstract
The emergence of “superbugs” resistant to antimicrobial medications threatens populations both veterinary and human. The current crisis has come about from the widespread use of the limited number of antimicrobials available in the treatment of livestock, companion animal, and human patients. A different approach must be sought to find alternatives to or enhancements of present conventional antimicrobials. Mesenchymal stromal cells (MSC) have antimicrobial properties that may help solve this problem. In the first part of the review, we explore the various mechanisms at work across species that help explain how MSCs influence microbial survival. We then discuss the findings of recent equine, canine, and bovine studies examining MSC antimicrobial properties in which MSCs are found to have significant effects on a variety of bacterial species either alone or in combination with antibiotics. Finally, information on the influence that various antimicrobials may have on MSC function is reviewed. MSCs exert their effect directly through the secretion of various bioactive factors or indirectly through the recruitment and activation of host immune cells. MSCs may soon become a valuable tool for veterinarians treating antimicrobial resistant infections. However, a great deal of work remains for the development of optimal MSC production conditions and testing for efficacy on different indications and species.

Abstract
Latent tuberculosis has been recognized for over a century, but discovery of new niches, where Mycobacterium tuberculosis resides, continues. We evaluated literature on M.tuberculosis locations during latency, highlighting that mesenchymal and hematopoietic stem cells harbor organisms in sensitized asymptomatic individuals.
