Functional single-cell analyses of mesenchymal stromal cell proliferation and differentiation using ALDH-activity and mitochondrial ROS content. Cytotherapy 2024; 26:813-824.

Abstract
BASKGROUND Previous research has unveiled a stem cell-like transcriptome enrichment in the aldehyde dehydrogenase-expressing (ALDHhigh) mesenchymal stromal cell (MStroC) fraction. However, considering the heterogeneity of MStroCs, with only a fraction of them presenting bona fide stem cells (MSCs), the actual potency of ALDH as an MSC-specific selection marker remains an issue. METHODS To address this, the proliferative and differentiation potential of individual ALDHhigh and ALDHlow MStroCs incubated at low oxygen concentrations, estimated to mimic stem cell niches (0.1% O2), were assayed using single-cell clonal analysis, compared to standard conditions (20% O2). RESULTS We confirm that a high proliferative capacity and multi-potent MSCs are enriched in the ALDHhigh MStroC population, especially when cells are cultured at 0.1% O2. Measurements of reduced/oxidized glutathione and mitochondrial superoxide anions with MitoSoX (MSX) indicate that this advantage induced by low oxygen is related to a decrease in the oxidative and reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels in the stem cell metabolic setup. However, ALDH expression is neither specific nor exclusive to MSCs, as high proliferative capacity and multi-potent cells were also found in the ALDHlow fraction. Furthermore, single-cell assays performed after combined cell sorting based on ALDH and MSX showed that the MSXlow MStroC population is enriched in stem/progenitor cells in all conditions, irrespective of ALDH expression or culture oxygen concentration. Importantly, the ALDHhighMSXlow MStroC fraction exposed to 0.1% O2 was almost exclusively composed of genuine MSCs. In contrast, neither progenitors nor stem cells (with a complete absence of colony-forming ability) were detected in the MSXhigh fraction, which exclusively resides in the ALDHlow MStroC population. CONCLUSION Our study reveals that ALDH expression is not exclusively associated with MSCs. However, cell sorting using combined ALDH expression and ROS content can be utilized to exclude MStroCs lacking stem/progenitor cell properties.

Effects of oxidized LDL versus IL-1ß/TNF-ɑ/INFɣ on human gingival mesenchymal stem cells properties. J Periodontal Res 2024. [PMID: 38952262 DOI: 10.1111/jre.13319] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/23/2024] [Revised: 06/12/2024] [Accepted: 06/19/2024] [Indexed: 07/03/2024]
Abstract
AIMS Oxidized low-density lipoprotein (oxLDL) is an important player in the course of metabolic inflammatory diseases. oxLDL was identified in the gingival crevicular fluid, denoting possible associations between oxLDL-induced inflammation and periodontal disease. The current investigation compared for the first-time direct effects of oxLDL to a cytokine cocktail of IL-1ß/TNF-ɑ/INF-γ on gingival mesenchymal stem cells' (G-MSCs) attributes. METHODS Human third passage G-MSCs, isolated from connective tissue biopsies (n = 5) and characterized, were stimulated in three groups over 7 days: control group, cytokine group (IL-1β[1 ng/mL], TNF-α[10 ng/mL], IFN-γ[100 ng/mL]), or oxLDL group (oxLDL [50 μg/mL]). Next Generation Sequencing and KEGG pathway enrichment analysis, stemness gene expression (NANOG/SOX2/OCT4A), cellular proliferation, colony-formation, multilinear potential, and altered intracellular pathways were investigated via histochemistry, next-generation sequencing, and RT-qPCR. RESULTS G-MSCs exhibited all mesenchymal stem cells' characteristics. oxLDL group and cytokine group displayed no disparities in their stemness markers (p > .05). Next-generation-sequencing revealed altered expression of the TXNIP gene in response to oxLDL treatment compared with controls (p = .04). Following an initial boosting for up to 5 days by inflammatory stimuli, over 14 day, cellular counts [median count ×10-5 (Q25/Q75)] were utmost in control - [2.6607 (2.0804/4.5357)], followed by cytokine - [0.0433 (0.0026/1.4215)] and significantly lowered in the oxLDL group [0.0274 (0.0023/0.7290); p = .0047]. Osteogenic differentiation [median relative Ca2+ content(Q25/Q75)] was significantly lower in cytokine - [0.0066 (0.0052/0.0105)] compared to oxLDL - [0.0144 (0.0108/0.0216)] (p = .0133), with no differences notable for chondrogenic and adipogenic differentiation (p > .05). CONCLUSIONS Within the current investigation's limitations, in contrast to cytokine-mediated inflammation, G-MSCs appear to be minimally responsive to oxLDL-mediated metabolic inflammation, with little negative effect on their differentiation attributes and significantly reduced cellular proliferation.

Abstract
There is a knowledge gap regarding the effect of extracorporeal shockwave treatment (ESWT) on the stress response and immunomodulatory and anti-inflammatory properties of equine umbilical cord blood mesenchymal stromal cells (CB-MSCs). The objective of this study was to investigate the presence of cellular oxidative stress, inflammatory response, and production of growth factors in CB-MSCs after treatment with ESWT. We hypothesized that CB-MSCs treated with ESWT will experience higher levels of cellular stress and increased production of anti-inflammatory cytokines and growth factors compared to untreated CB-MSCs.

Abstract
The use of mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) for treating chronic inflammatory disorders, wounds, and ischemia-reperfusion injuries has shown improved healing efficacy. However, the poor survival rate of transplanted cells due to oxidative stress in injured or inflamed tissue remains a significant concern for MSC-based therapies. In this study, we developed a new approach to protect MSCs from oxidative stress, thereby improving their survival in a wound microenvironment and enhancing their therapeutic effect. We produced PLGA nanoparticles loaded with the cytoprotective phytochemical silibinin (SBN), and used them to modify MSCs. Upon internalization, these nanoformulations released SBN, activating the Nrf2/ARE signaling pathway, resulting in threefold reduction in intracellular ROS content and improved cell survival under oxidative stress conditions. Modification of MSCs with SBN-loaded PLGA nanoparticles increased their survival upon transplantation to full-thickness cutaneous wounds and improved wound healing. This study suggests that MSC modification with cytoprotective nanoparticles could be a promising approach for improving wound healing.

Abstract
Mesenchymal stem cells (MSC) are an appealing therapeutic cell type for many diseases. However, patients with poor health or advanced age often have MSCs with poor regenerative properties. A major limiter of MSC therapies is cellular senescence, which is marked by limited proliferation capability, diminished multipotency, and reduced regenerative properties. In this work, we explored the ability of applied mechanical forces to reduce cellular senescence in MSCs. Our studies revealed that mechanical conditioning caused a lasting enhancement in proliferation, overall cell culture expansion potential, multipotency, and a reduction of senescence in MSCs from aged donors. Mechanistic studies suggested that these functional enhancements were mediated by oxidative stress and DNA damage repair signaling with mechanical load altering the expression of proteins of the sirtuin pathway, the DNA damage repair protein ATM, and antioxidant proteins. In addition, our results suggest a biophysical mechanism in which mechanical stretch leads to improved recognition of damaged DNA in the nucleus. Analysis of the cells through RNA-seq and ATAC-seq, demonstrated that mechanical loading alters the cell's genetic landscape to cause broad shifts in transcriptomic patterns that related to senescence. Overall, our results demonstrate that mechanical conditioning can rejuvenate mesenchymal stem cells derived from aged patients and improve their potential as a therapeutic cell type.

Abstract
Bone marrow mesenchymal stem cell (BMSC) transplantation is a promising regenerative therapy; however, the survival rate of BMSCs after transplantation is low. Oxidative stress is one of the main reasons for the high apoptosis rate of BMSCs after transplantation, so there is an urgent need to explore the mechanism of oxidative stress-induced apoptosis of BMSCs. Our previous transcriptome sequencing results suggested that the expression of P53-induced nuclear protein 1 (TP53INP1) and the tumor suppressor P53 (P53) was significantly upregulated during the process of oxidative stress-induced apoptosis of BMSCs. The present study further revealed the role and mechanism of TP53INP1 and P53 in oxidative stress-induced apoptosis in BMSCs. Overexpression of TP53INP1 induced apoptosis of BMSCs, knockdown of TP53INP1 alleviated oxidative stress apoptosis of BMSCs. Under oxidative stress conditions, P53 is regulated by TP53INP1, while P53 can positively regulate the expression of TP53INP1, so the two form a positive feedback loop. To clarify the mechanism of feedback loop formation. We found that TP53INP1 inhibited the ubiquitination and degradation of P53 by increasing the phosphorylation level of P53, leading to the accumulation of P53 protein. P53 can act on the promoter of the TP53INP1 gene and increase the expression of TP53INP1 through transcriptional activation. This is the first report on a positive feedback loop formed by TP53INP1 and P53 under oxidative stress. The present study clarified the formation mechanism of the positive feedback loop. The TP53INP1-P53 positive feedback loop may serve as a potential target for inhibiting oxidative stress-induced apoptosis in BMSCs.

Abstract
Maternal obesity is a well-known risk factor for developing premature obesity, metabolic syndrome, cardiovascular disease and type 2 diabetes in the progeny. The development of white adipose tissue is a dynamic process that starts during prenatal life: fat depots laid down in utero are associated with the proportion of fat in children later on. How early this programming takes place is still unknown. However, recent evidence shows that mesenchymal stem cells (MSC), the embryonic adipocyte precursor cells, show signatures of the early setting of an adipogenic committed phenotype when exposed to maternal obesity. This review aims to present current findings on the cellular adaptations of MSCs from the offspring of women with obesity and how the metabolic environment of MSCs could affect the early commitment towards adipocytes. In conclusion, maternal obesity can induce early programming of fetal adipose tissue by conditioning MSCs. These cells have higher expression of adipogenic markers, altered insulin signalling and mitochondrial performance, compared to MSCs of neonates from lean pregnancies. Fetal MSCs imprinting by maternal obesity could help explain the increased risk of childhood obesity and development of further noncommunicable diseases.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Elderly patients suffering from osteoporotic fractures are more susceptible to delayed union or nonunion, and their bodies then are in a state of low-grade chronic inflammation with decreased antioxidant capacity. Tanshinone IIA is widely used in treating cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases in China and has anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects. We aimed to observe the antioxidant effects of Tanshinone IIA on mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs), which play important roles in bone repair, and the effects of local application of Tanshinone IIA using an injectable biodegradable hydrogel on osteoporotic fracture healing. METHODS MSCs were pretreated with or without different concentrations of Tanshinone IIA followed by H2O2 treatment. Ovariectomized (OVX) C57BL/6 mice received a mid-shaft transverse osteotomy fracture on the left tibia, and Tanshinone IIA was applied to the fracture site using an injectable hydrogel. RESULTS Tanshinone IIA pretreatment promoted the expression of nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 and antioxidant enzymes, and inhibited H2O2-induced reactive oxygen species accumulation in MSCs. Furthermore, Tanshinone IIA reversed H2O2-induced apoptosis and decrease in osteogenic differentiation in MSCs. After 4 weeks of treatment with Tanshinone IIA in OVX mice, the bone mineral density of the callus was significantly increased and the biomechanical properties of the healed tibias were improved. Cell apoptosis was decreased and Nrf2 expression was increased in the early stage of callus formation. CONCLUSIONS Taken together, these results indicate that Tanshinone IIA can activate antioxidant enzymes to protect MSCs from H2O2-induced cell apoptosis and osteogenic differentiation inhibition. Local application of Tanshinone IIA accelerates fracture healing in ovariectomized mice.

Cigarette smoke impairs the hematopoietic supportive property of mesenchymal stem cells via the production of reactive oxygen species and NLRP3 activation. Stem Cell Res Ther 2024; 15:145. [PMID: 38764093 PMCID: PMC11103961 DOI: 10.1186/s13287-024-03731-2] [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: 01/14/2024] [Accepted: 04/10/2024] [Indexed: 05/21/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) play important roles in tissue homeostasis by providing a supportive microenvironmental niche for the hematopoietic system. Cigarette smoking induces systemic abnormalities, including an impeded recovery process after hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. However, the role of cigarette smoking-mediated alterations in MSC niche function have not been investigated. METHODS In the present study, we investigated whether exposure to cigarette smoking extract (CSE) disrupts the hematopoietic niche function of MSCs, and pathways impacted. To investigate the effects on bone marrow (BM)-derived MSCs and support of hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPCs), mice were repeatedly infused with the CSE named 3R4F, and hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPCs) supporting function was determined. The impact of 3R4F on MSCs at cellular level were screened by bulk-RNA sequencing and subsequently validated through qRT-PCR. Specific inhibitors were treated to verify the ROS or NLRP3-specific effects, and the cells were then transplanted into the animal model or subjected to coculture with HSPCs. RESULTS Both direct ex vivo and systemic in vivo MSC exposure to 3R4F resulted in impaired engraftment in a humanized mouse model. Furthermore, transcriptomic profile analysis showed significantly upregulated signaling pathways related to reactive oxygen species (ROS), inflammation, and aging in 3R4F-treated MSCs. Notably, ingenuity pathway analysis revealed the activation of NLRP3 inflammasome signaling pathway in 3R4F-treated MSCs, and pretreatment with the NLRP3 inhibitor MCC950 rescued the HSPC-supporting ability of 3R4F-treated MSCs. CONCLUSION In conclusion, these findings indicate that exposure to CSE reduces HSPCs supportive function of MSCs by inducing robust ROS production and subsequent NLRP3 activation.

Abstract
Stem cell spheroid is a promising graft substitute for bone tissue engineering. Spheroids obtained by 3D culture of STRO1+ Gingival Mesenchymal Stem Cells (sGMSCs) (sGMSC spheroids, GS) seldom express angiogenic factors, limiting their angiogenic differentiation in vivo. This study introduced a novel stem cell spheroid with osteogenic and angiogenic potential through 3D co-culture of sGMSCs and Human Umbilical Vein Endothelial Cells (HUVECs) (sGMSC/HUVEC spheroids, GHS). GHS with varying seeding ratios of sGMSCs to HUVECs (GHR) were developed. Cell fusion within the GHS system was observed via immunofluorescence. Calcein-AM/PI staining and chemiluminescence assay indicated cellular viability within the GHS. Furthermore, osteogenic and angiogenic markers, including ALP, OCN, RUNX2, CD31, and VEGFA, were quantified and compared with the control group comprising solely of sGMSCs (GS). Incorporating HUVECs into GHS extended cell viability and stability, initiated the expression of angiogenic factors CD31 and VEGFA, and upregulated the expression of osteogenic factors ALP, OCN, and RUNX2, especially when GHS with a GHR of 1:1. Taken together, GHS, derived from the 3D co-culture of sGMSCs and HUVECs, enhanced osteogenic and angiogenic capacities in vitro, extending the application of cell therapy in bone tissue engineering.

Abstract
Over the recent decades, stem cell-based therapies have been considered as a beneficial approach for the treatment of various diseases. In these types of therapies, the stem cells and their products are used as treating agents. Despite the helpful efficacy of stem cell-based therapies, there may be challenges. Oxidative stress (OS) is one of these challenges that can affect the therapeutic properties of stem cells. Therefore, it seems that employing strategies for the reduction of OS in combination with stem cell therapy can lead to better results of these therapies. Based on the available evidence, antioxidant therapy and photobiomodulation (PBM) are strategies that can regulate the OS in the cells. Antioxidant therapy is a method in which various antioxidants are used in the therapeutic processes. PBM is also the clinical application of light that gained importance in medicine. Antioxidants and PBM can regulate OS by the effect on mitochondria as an important source of OS in the cells. Considering the importance of OS in pathologic pathways and its effect on the treatment outcomes of stem cells, in the present review first the stem cell therapy and effects of OS on this type of therapy are summarized. Then, antioxidant therapy and PBM as approaches for reducing OS with a focus on mitochondrial function are discussed. Also, a novel combination treatment with the hope of achieving better and more stable outcomes in the treatment process of diseases is proposed.

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.

Abstract
Background Cystic echinococcosis, caused by the larval stage of Echinococcus granulosus, remains a global health challenge. Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are renowned for their regenerative and immunomodulatory properties. Given the parasite's mode of establishment, we postulate that MSCs likely play a pivotal role in the interaction between the parasite and the host. This study aims to explore the response of MSCs to antigens derived from Echinococcus granulosus, the etiological agent of hydatid disease, with the hypothesis that exposure to these antigens may alter MSC function and impact the host's immune response to the parasite. Methods MSCs were isolated from mouse bone marrow and co-cultured with ESPs, HCF, or pLL antigens. We conducted high-throughput sequencing to examine changes in the MSCs' mRNA expression profile. Additionally, cell cycle, migration, and secretory functions were assessed using various assays, including CCK8, flow cytometry, real-time PCR, Western blot, and ELISA. Results Our analysis revealed that hydatid antigens significantly modulate the mRNA expression of genes related to cytokine and chemokine activity, impacting MSC proliferation, migration, and cytokine secretion. Specifically, there was a downregulation of chemokines (MCP-1, CXCL1) and pro-inflammatory cytokines (IL-6, NOS2/NO), alongside an upregulation of anti-inflammatory mediators (COX2/PGE2). Furthermore, all antigens reduced MSC migration, and significant alterations in cellular metabolism-related pathways were observed. Conclusion Hydatid disease antigens induce a distinct immunomodulatory response in MSCs, characterized by a shift towards an anti-inflammatory phenotype and reduced cell migration. These changes may contribute to the parasite's ability to evade host defenses and persist within the host, highlighting the complex interplay between MSCs and hydatid disease antigens. This study provides valuable insights into the pathophysiology of hydatid disease and may inform the development of novel therapeutic strategies.

Abstract
Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) have become popular tool cells in the field of transformation and regenerative medicine due to their function of cell rescue and cell replacement. The dynamically changing mitochondria serve as an energy metabolism factory and signal transduction platform, adapting to different cell states and maintaining normal cell activities. Therefore, a clear understanding of the regulatory mechanism of mitochondria in MSCs is profit for more efficient clinical transformation of stem cells. This review highlights the cutting-edge knowledge regarding mitochondrial biology from the following aspects: mitochondrial morphological dynamics, energy metabolism and signal transduction. The manuscript mainly focuses on mitochondrial mechanistic insights in the whole life course of MSCs, as well as the potential roles played by mitochondria in MSCs treatment of transplantation, for seeking pivotal targets of stem cell fate regulation and stem cell therapy.

Abstract
Background Mesenchymal Stem Cells (MSCs) have the ability to self-renew and proliferate which gives them healing properties in various tissues. Aluminium chloride (AlCl3) is a chemical compound with harmful effects on health; oxidative stress caused by Aluminium has been reported previously. Crocin, a major component of Crocus sativus (saffron), has antioxidant properties and has shown therapeutic potential. Researchers have been looking for ways to reduce the harmful effects of AlCl3. Methods To investigate whether crocin can reduce AlCl3 cytotoxicity, rat Bone Marrow Mesenchymal Stem Cells (BM-MSCs) were isolated, cultured and divided into four experimental groups. The first group was the control, which was untreated cells. The second and third groups were treated with crocin (50, 100, 250, 500 μM) and AlCl3 (20, 25, 30 mM) for 24 hr. The fourth group was pre-treated with crocin (250, 500 μM) for 24 hr and then treated with AlCl3 (20 mM) overnight. Cytotoxicity was assessed using the MTT assay. Mineralization was evaluated by alizarin red staining. Sox-2 and E-cadherin expression were measured using real-time PCR. Results The results showed that AlCl3 caused cytotoxicity on BM-MSCs and decreased the mRNA expression of Sox-2 and E-cadherin, which are important for the maintenance of self-renewal and proliferation of BM-MSCs. In contrast, crocin protected the self-renewal characteristic of BM-MSCs by increasing Sox-2 expression and also preserved the proliferative effects on BM-MSCs by upregulating E-cadherin expression (***p≤0.001). Conclusion Overall, the study suggests that crocin can protect BM-MSCs from AlCl3-induced cytotoxicity by upregulate Sox-2 expression and E-cadherin expression. This suggests that crocin may be a potential therapeutic agent for the treatment of AlCl3-induced toxicity.

Abstract
Cellular senescence is a tightly regulated pathophysiologic process and is caused by replicative exhaustion or external stressors. Since naturally derived bioactive compounds with anti-ageing properties have recently captured scientific interest, we analysed the anti-ageing and antioxidant efficacy of Cryptomphalus aspersa egg extract (CAEE). Its effects on stemness, wound-healing properties, antioxidant defense mechanisms, and DNA damage repair ability of Human Wharton's jelly mesenchymal stem cells (WJ-MSCs) were analysed. Our results revealed that CAEE fortifies WJ-MSCs stemness, which possibly ameliorates their wound-healing ability. Additionally, we show that CAEE possesses a strong antioxidant capacity as demonstrated by the elevation of the levels of the basic antioxidant molecule, GSH, and the induction of the NRF2, a major antioxidant regulator. In addition, CAEE alleviated cells' oxidative stress and therefore prevented stress-induced premature senescence (SIPS). Furthermore, we demonstrated that the prevention of SIPS could be mediated via the extract's ability to induce autophagy, as indicated by the elevation of the protein levels of all basic autophagic molecules and the increase in formation of autophagolysosomes in CAEE-treated WJ-MSCs. Moreover, CAEE-treated cells exhibited decreased Caveolin-1 levels. We propose that Cryptomphalus aspersa egg extract comprises bioactive compounds that can demonstrate strong antioxidant/anti-ageing effects by regulating the Caveolin-1-autophagy-senescence molecular axis.

Abstract
Titanium (Ti) and titanium alloy are the most common metal materials in clinical orthopedic surgery. However, in the initial stage of surgery and implantation, the production of excessive reactive oxygen species (ROS) can induce oxidative stress (OS) microenvironment. OS will further inhibit the growth of new bone, resulting in surgical failure. In this study, based on the fact that nanoscale manganese dioxide (MnO2) can show H2O2-like enzyme activity, a MnO2 nanocoating was prepared on mciro-nano structured surface of Ti substrate via a two-step method of alkaline thermal and hydrothermal treatment. The results of scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray diffractometer (XRD) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) showed that the nano-MnO2 coating was successfully fabricated on the surface of Ti substrate. The results of measurement of H2O2, dissolved O2 and intracellular ROS in vitro showed that the treated Ti substrate could efficiently eliminate H2O2 and reduce ROS. Furthermore, the modified Ti substrate could promote the early adhesion, proliferation and osteogenic differentiation of MSCs, which was demonstrated by experimental results of cell morphology, cell viability, alkaline phosphatase, collagen, and mineralization deposition. The results of quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) of MSCs adhered the modified Ti substrate showed that the expression of genes related to osteogenic differentiation significantly increased. More importantly, the modified Ti implant could eliminate ROS at the injury site, reduce OS and promote the regeneration of bone tissue, which was demonstrated via hematoxylin/eosin, Masson's trichrome and immunohistochemical staining. In conclusion, the modified Ti implant presented here had the effect of reducing OS and promoting osseointegration. Relevant research ideas and results provide new methods for the research and development of functional implants, which have potential application value in the field of orthopedics.

Abstract
Mitochondria serve as essential organelles that play a key role in regulating stem cell fate. Mitochondrial dysfunction and stem cell exhaustion are two of the nine distinct hallmarks of aging. Emerging research suggests that epigenetic modification of mitochondria-encoded genes and the regulation of epigenetics by mitochondrial metabolites have an impact on stem cell aging or differentiation. Here, we review how key mitochondrial metabolites and behaviors regulate stem cell fate through an epigenetic approach. Gaining insight into how mitochondria regulate stem cell fate will help us manufacture and preserve clinical-grade stem cells under strict quality control standards, contributing to the development of aging-associated organ dysfunction and disease.

ENVIRONMENT INTERNATIONAL 2024; 183:108354.

Abstract
Sodium p-perfluorous nonenoxybenzenesulfonate (OBS) is a novel alternative to perfluorooctane sulfonate (PFOS), with environmental health risks largely unknown. The present study aims to unravel the adipogenesis effects and underlying molecular initiating events of OBS, which are crucial for understanding and predicting its adverse outcome. In undifferentiated human mesenchymal stem cells (hMSCs), exposure to 1-100 nM of OBS for 7 days stimulated reactive oxygen species production. In the subsequent multipotent differentiation, hMSCs favored adipogenesis and repressed osteogenesis. The point of departure (PoD) for cellular responses of OBS was 38.85 nM, higher than PFOS (0.39 nM). Notably, OBS/PFOS co-exposure inhibited osteogenesis and synergistically promoted adipogenesis. Consistently, the expression of adipogenic marker genes was up-regulated, while that of osteogenic marker genes was down-regulated. The decreased adiponectin and elevated tumor necrosis factor α (TNFα) secretion were observed in differentiated cells exposed to the mixture of OBS and PFOS. The co-treatment of a peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ (PPARγ) antagonist alleviated the adipogenic effects of PFOS and its combination with OBS. Moreover, OBS/PFOS co-exposure induced peroxisome PPARγ activation in reporter gene assays, and increased formation of PPARγ - retinoid X receptor α (RXRα) heterodimers measured by co-immunoprecipitation assays. Molecular docking showed interaction energy of OBS (-20.7 kcal/mol) with intact PPARγ-RXRα complex was lower than that of PFOS (-25.9 kcal/mol). Overall, single OBS exhibited lower potency in inducing adipogenesis but is comparable to PFOS in repressing osteogenesis, whereas OBS/PFOS co-exposure increases interaction with PPARγ-RXRα heterodimers, resulting in the synergistic activation of PPARγ, ultimately enhancing adipogenesis at the expense of osteogenic differentiation. The results indicate the potential health risks of increased obesity and decreased bone density caused by OBS and its co-exposure with PFOS, as well as other perfluorinated alkylated substances mixtures.

Abstract
Dental implants are widely used to replace missing teeth, providing patients with unparalleled levels of effectiveness, convenience, and affordability. The biological basis for the clinical success of dental implants is osseointegration. Bone aging is a high-risk factor for the reduced osseointegration and survival rates of dental implants. In aged individuals, mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) in the bone marrow show imbalanced differentiation with a reduction in osteogenesis and an increase in adipogenesis. This leads to impaired osseointegration and implant failure. This review focuses on the molecular mechanisms underlying the dysfunctional differentiation of aged MSCs, which primarily include autophagy, transcription factors, extracellular vesicle secretion, signaling pathways, epigenetic modifications, microRNAs, and oxidative stress. Furthermore, this review addresses the pathological changes in MSCs that affect osseointegration and discusses potential therapeutic interventions to enhance osseointegration by manipulating the mechanisms underlying MSC aging.

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
Radiation exposure arising from radiotherapy may induce rapid bone loss and an increase in the extent of bone resorption. Reactive oxygen species (ROS) caused by radiation exposure play a crucial role during the process of osteoclastogenesis. However, the pathological mechanisms underlying radiation-induced osteoclastogenesis have yet to be fully elucidated. CR6-interacting factor-1 (Crif1) as a multifunctional protein is involved in regulating multiple biological functions in cells. Here, we investigated the role of Crif1 in radiation-induced osteoclastogenesis and found that radiation exposure induced an increase in the expression level of Crif1 and enhanced osteoclastogenesis in osteoclast progenitors. Crif1 and NF-κB p65 co-localized in the cytoplasm after radiation exposure. Crif1 knockdown did not affect the phosphorylation and total protein levels of extracellular signal-regulated kinases (ERK), c-Jun amino (N)-terminal kinases (JNK), p38, and IκB-α before and after irradiation. However, Crif1 knockdown did lead to the reduced phosphorylation and nuclear translocation of NF-κB p65 after irradiation and resulted in a reduced level of osteoclastogenesis in RAW264.7 cells after irradiation. In vivo studies involving Lyz2Cre;Crif1fl/fl mice possessing the myeloid-specific deletion of Crif1 demonstrated the alleviation of bone loss after irradiation when compared with Crif1fl/fl mice. Our findings demonstrate that Crif1 mediated the phosphorylation and nuclear translocation of NF-κB p65 and promoted osteoclastogenesis via the NF-κB signaling pathway after radiation exposure. Thus, our analysis revealed a specific role for Crif1 in the mediation of radiation-induced bone loss and may provide new insight into potential therapeutic strategies for radiation-induced bone loss.

Abstract
Autoimmune diseases, including rheumatoid arthritis that is the most prevalent rheumatic autoimmune disorder, affect autologous connective tissues caused by the breakdown of the self-tolerance mechanisms of the immune system. During the last two decades, cell-based therapy, including stem cells and none-stem cells has been increasingly considered as a therapeutic option in various diseases. This is partly due to the unique properties of stem cells that divide and differentiate from the specialized cells in the damaged tissue. Moreover, stem cells and none-stem cells, impose immunomodulatory properties affecting the diseases caused by immunological abnormalities such as rheumatic autoimmune disorders. In the present review, the efficacy of cell-based therapy with four main types of stem cells, including mesenchymal stem cells, hematopoietic stem cells, embryonic stem cells, and human amniotic membrane cells, as well as none-stem cells, including regulatory T cells, chimeric antigen receptor T cells, and tolerogenic dendritic cells will be evaluated. Moreover, other related issues, including safety, changes in immunological parameters, suitable choice of stem cell and none-stem cell origin, conditioning regimen, limitations, and complications will be discussed.

Abstract
Transglutaminase 2 (TG2) is a multifunctional enzyme that exhibits transamidase, GTPase, kinase, and protein disulfide isomerase (PDI) activities. Of these, transamidase-mediated modification of proteins regulates apoptosis, differentiation, inflammation, and fibrosis. TG2 is highly expressed in mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) compared with differentiated cells, suggesting a role of TG2 specific for MSC characteristics. In this study, we report a new function of TG2 in the regulation of MSC redox homeostasis. During in vitro MSC expansion, TG2 is required for cell proliferation and self-renewal by preventing premature senescence but has no effect on the expression of surface antigens and oxidative stress-induced cell death. Moreover, induction of differentiation upregulates TG2 that promotes osteoblastic differentiation. Molecular analyses revealed that TG2 mediates tert-butylhydroquinone, but not sulforaphane, -induced nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (NRF2) activation in a transamidase activity-independent manner. Differences in the mechanism of action between two NRF2 activators suggest that PDI activity of TG2 may be implicated in the stabilization of NRF2. The role of TG2 in the regulation of antioxidant response was further supported by transcriptomic analysis of MSC. These results indicate that TG2 is a critical enzyme in eliciting antioxidant response in MSC through NRF2 activation, providing a target for optimizing MSC manufacturing processes to prevent premature senescence.

Abstract
Type 2 diabetes (T2D), associated with obesity, represents a state of metabolic inflammation and oxidative stress leading to insulin resistance and progressive insulin deficiency. Adipose-derived stem cells (ASCs) are adult mesenchymal stem/stromal cells identified within the stromal vascular fraction of adipose tissue. These cells can regulate the immune system and possess anti-inflammatory properties. ASCs are a potential therapeutic modality for inflammatory diseases including T2D. Patient-derived (autologous) rather than allogeneic ASCs may be a relatively safer approach in clinical perspectives, to avoid occasional anti-donor immune responses. However, patient characteristics such as body mass index (BMI), inflammatory status, and disease duration and severity may limit the therapeutic utility of ASCs. The current review presents human ASC (hASC) immunoregulatory mechanisms with special emphasis on those related to T lymphocytes, hASC implications in T2D treatment, and the impact of T2D and obesity on hASC immunoregulatory potential. hASCs can modulate the proliferation, activation, and functions of diverse innate and adaptive immune cells via direct cell-to-cell contact and secretion of paracrine mediators and extracellular vesicles. Preclinical studies recommend the therapeutic potential of hASCs to improve inflammation and metabolic indices in a high-fat diet (HFD)-induced T2D disease model. Discordant data have been reported to unravel intact or detrimentally affected immunomodulatory functions of ASCs, isolated from patients with obesity and/or T2D patients, in vitro and in vivo. Numerous preconditioning strategies have been introduced to potentiate hASC immunomodulation; they are also discussed here as possible options to potentiate the immunoregulatory functions of hASCs isolated from patients with obesity and T2D.

The pathological and therapeutically role of mesenchymal stem cell (MSC)-derived exosome in degenerative diseases; Particular focus on LncRNA and microRNA. Pathol Res Pract 2023; 250:154778. [PMID: 37683391 DOI: 10.1016/j.prp.2023.154778] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/28/2023] [Revised: 08/17/2023] [Accepted: 08/20/2023] [Indexed: 09/10/2023]
Abstract
By releasing exosomes, which create the ideal milieu for the resolution of inflammation, mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) enhance tissue healing and have strong immunomodulatory capabilities. MSCs-derived exosome also can affect tumor progress by a myriad of mechanisms. Exosomes function as a cell-cell communication tool to affect cellular activity in recipient cells and include an array of efficient bioactive chemicals. Understanding the fundamental biology of inflammation ablation, tissue homeostasis, and the creation of therapeutic strategies is particularly interested in the horizontal transfer of exosomal long non-coding RNAs (lncRNA) and microRNAs (miRNAs) to recipient cells, where they affect target gene expression. Herein, we propose an exosomal lncRNA and microRNA profile in neurological, renal, cardiac, lung, and liver diseases as well as skin wounds and arthritis.

Abstract
Environmental chemical exposure can cause dysregulation in adipogenesis that can result in metabolic syndrome, which includes insulin resistance, type 2 diabetes, cardiovascular disease, as well as excessive body weight. The role of autophagy in adipocyte differentiation is debatable since both positive and negative effects have been reported. Type-I and type-II synthetic pyrethroids α-cypermethrin (CPM) and permethrin (PER), respectively, are reported to increase adipogenesis in vitro and in vivo. However, it is not known how these pyrethroids affect mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs). Thus, this study focused on evaluating the effect of pyrethroids (CPM and PER) pre-treatment (24 h) on MSC commitment and the regulatory role of autophagy in adipogenic lineage commitment. The formation of adipocytes was observed through nile red staining, perilipin expression by immunoflourescence, and adipogenic markers PPARγ, C/EBPα, and FABP4 by western blotting. It was found that the adipogenic differentiation ability of MSCs was significantly increased upon CPM or PER pre-treatment at 100 μM concentration as evident by lipid accumulation and enhanced expression of adipogenic markers. To assess the involvement of autophagy, the expression of p62 and LC3II were evaluated following pre-treatment. Immunoblotting results revealed an increased expression of p62 and LC3II in CPM or PER pretreated MSCs suggesting CPM and PER mediated inhibition of autophagy at 24 h. Further, an increase was observed in adipogenesis upon CPM or PER pre-treatment in combination with chloroquine, while use of rapamycin during pre-treatment abrogated the effect of CPM and PER. Thus, this study concludes that CPM or PER pre-treatment increases the adipogenic differentiation of MSCs. Since chloroquine also demonstrated similar adipogenic response, it further highlights that 24 h pre-treatment with autophagy modulators to inhibit basal autophagy primes MSCs towards adipogenic lineage.

Abstract
While exposure to high levels of all-trans retinoic acid (atRA) during pregnancy is known to suppress murine embryonic palate mesenchymal (MEPM) cells proliferation and to result in cleft palate (CP) development, the underlying mechanisms are poorly understood. Accordingly, this study was designed with the goal of clarifying the etiological basis for atRA-induced CP. A murine model of CP was established via the oral administration of atRA to pregnant mice on gestational day (GD) 10.5, after which transcriptomic and metabolomic analyses were performed with the goal of clarifying the critical genes and metabolites associated with CP development through an integrated multi-omics approach. MEPM cells proliferation was altered by atRA exposure as expected, contributing to CP incidence. In total, 110 genes were differentially expressed in the atRA treatment groups, suggesting that atRA may influence key biological processes including stimulus, adhesion, and signaling-related activities. In addition, 133 differentially abundant metabolites were identified including molecules associated with ABC transporters, protein digestion and absorption, mTOR signaling pathway, and the TCA cycle, suggesting a link between these mechanisms and CP. Overall, combined analyses of these transcriptomic and metabolomic results suggested that the MAPK, calcium, PI3K-Akt, Wnt, and mTOR signaling pathways are particularly important pathways enriched in the palatal cleft under conditions of atRA exposure. Together, these integrated transcriptomic and metabolomic approaches provided new evidence with respect to the mechanisms underlying altered MEPM cells proliferation and signal transduction associated with atRA-induced CP, revealing a possible link between oxidative stress and these pathological changes.

Abstract
Bone metastasis (BM) is one of the main manifestations of advanced breast cancer (BC), causing complications such as pathological fractures, which seriously affects the quality of life of patients and even leads to death. In our study, a global single-cell landscape of the tumor microenvironment was constructed using single cell RNA sequencing data from BM. BC cells were found to be reduced in the BM, while mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs), Fibroblasts and other cells were significantly more abundant in the BM. The subpopulations of these cells were further identified, and the pathways, developmental trajectories and transcriptional regulation of different subpopulations were discussed. The results suggest that with the development of BM, BC cells were vulnerable to oxidative damage, showing a high level of oxidative stress, which played a key role in cell apoptosis. Fibroblasts were obviously involved in the biological processes (BPs) related to ossification and bone remodeling, and play an important role in tumor cell inoculation to bone marrow and growth. MSC subpopulations were significantly enriched in a number of BPs associated with bone growth and development and oxidative stress and may serve as key components of BC cells homing and adhesion to the ecological niche of BM. In conclusion, our research results describe the appearance of tumor microenvironment cell subpopulations in breast cancer patients, reveal the important role of some cells in the balance of BM bone remodeling and the imbalance of BM development, and provide potential therapeutic targets for BM.

Abstract
Natural ageing of organisms and corresponding age-related diseases result mainly from stem cell ageing and "inflammaging". Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) exhibit very high immune-regulating capacity and are promising candidates for immune-related disease treatment. However, the effect of MSC application is not satisfactory for some patients, especially in elderly individuals. With ageing, MSCs undergo many changes, including altered cell population reduction and differentiation ability, reduced migratory and homing capacity and, most important, defective immunosuppression. It is necessary to explore the relationship between the "inflammaging" and aged MSCs to prevent age-related diseases and increase the therapeutic effects of MSCs. In this review, we discuss changes in naturally ageing MSCs mainly from an inflammation perspective and propose some ideas for rejuvenating aged MSCs in future treatments.

Obesity impairs cardiolipin-dependent mitophagy and therapeutic intercellular mitochondrial transfer ability of mesenchymal stem cells. Cell Death Dis 2023; 14:324.

Abstract
Mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) transplantation alleviates metabolic defects in diseased recipient cells by intercellular mitochondrial transport (IMT). However, the effect of host metabolic conditions on IMT and thereby on the therapeutic efficacy of MSCs has largely remained unexplored. Here we found impaired mitophagy, and reduced IMT in MSCs derived from high-fat diet (HFD)-induced obese mouse (MSC-Ob). MSC-Ob failed to sequester their damaged mitochondria into LC3-dependent autophagosomes due to decrease in mitochondrial cardiolipin content, which we propose as a putative mitophagy receptor for LC3 in MSCs. Functionally, MSC-Ob exhibited diminished potential to rescue mitochondrial dysfunction and cell death in stress-induced airway epithelial cells. Pharmacological modulation of MSCs enhanced cardiolipin-dependent mitophagy and restored their IMT ability to airway epithelial cells. Therapeutically, these modulated MSCs attenuated features of allergic airway inflammation (AAI) in two independent mouse models by restoring healthy IMT. However, unmodulated MSC-Ob failed to do so. Notably, in human (h)MSCs, induced metabolic stress associated impaired cardiolipin-dependent mitophagy was restored upon pharmacological modulation. In summary, we have provided the first comprehensive molecular understanding of impaired mitophagy in obese-derived MSCs and highlight the importance of pharmacological modulation of these cells for therapeutic intervention. A MSCs obtained from (HFD)-induced obese mice (MSC-Ob) show underlying mitochondrial dysfunction with a concomitant decrease in cardiolipin content. These changes prevent LC3-cardiolipin interaction, thereby reducing dysfunctional mitochondria sequestration into LC3-autophagosomes and thus impaired mitophagy. The impaired mitophagy is associated with reduced intercellular mitochondrial transport (IMT) via tunneling nanotubes (TNTs) between MSC-Ob and epithelial cells in co-culture or in vivo. B Pyrroloquinoline quinone (PQQ) modulation in MSC-Ob restores mitochondrial health, cardiolipin content, and thereby sequestration of depolarized mitochondria into the autophagosomes to alleviate impaired mitophagy. Concomitantly, MSC-Ob shows restoration of mitochondrial health upon PQQ treatment (MSC-ObPQQ). During co-culture with epithelial cells or transplantation in vivo into the mice lungs, MSC-ObPQQ restores IMT and prevents epithelial cell death. C Upon transplantation in two independent allergic airway inflammatory mouse models, MSC-Ob failed to rescue the airway inflammation, hyperactivity, metabolic changes in epithelial cells. D PQQ modulated MSCs restored these metabolic defects and restored lung physiology and airway remodeling parameters.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The physiological level of reactive oxygen species (ROS) is necessary for many cellular functions. However, during the in-vitro manipulations, cells face a high level of ROS, leading to reduced cell quality. Preventing this abnormal ROS level is a challenging task. Hence, here we evaluated the effect of sodium selenite supplementation on the antioxidant potential, stemness capacity, and differentiation of rat-derived Bone Marrow MSCs (rBM-MSCs) and planned to check our hypothesis on the molecular pathways and networks linked to sodium selenite's antioxidant properties. METHODS MTT assay was used to assess the rBM-MSCs cells' viability following sodium selenite supplementation (concentrations of: 0.001, 0.01, 0.1, 1, 10 µM). The expression level of OCT-4, NANOG, and SIRT1 was explored using qPCR. The adipocyte differentiation capacity of MSCs was checked after Sodium Selenite treatment. The DCFH-DA assay was used to determine intracellular ROS levels. Sodium selenite-related expression of HIF-1α, GPX, SOD, TrxR, p-AKT, Nrf2, and p38 markers was determined using western blot. Significant findings were investigated by the String tool to picture the probable molecular network. RESULTS Media supplemented with 0.1 µM sodium selenite helped to preserve rBM-MSCs multipotency and keep their surface markers presentation; this also reduced the ROS level and improved the rBM-MSCs' antioxidant and stemness capacity. We observed enhanced viability and reduced senescence for rBM-MSCs. Moreover, sodium selenite helped in rBM-MSCs cytoprotection by regulating the expression of HIF-1 of AKT, Nrf2, SOD, GPX, and TrxR markers. CONCLUSIONS We showed that sodium selenite could help protect MSCs during in-vitro manipulations, probably via the Nrf2 pathway.

Abstract
We and others have reported that senescence onset is accompanied by genomic instability that is evident by several defects, such as aneuploidy or erroneous mitosis features. Here, we report that these defects also appear in young cells upon oxidative insult. We provide evidence that these errors could be the consequence of oxidative stress (OS)- either exogenous or senescence-associated - overriding the spindle assembly checkpoint (SAC). Young cells treated with Η2Ο2 as well as older cells fail to maintain mitotic arrest in the presence of spindle poisons and a significant higher percentage of them have supernumerary centrosomes and centrosome related anomalous characteristics. We also report that aging is escorted by expression modifications of SAC components, and especially of Bub1b/BubR1. Bub1b/BubR1 has been previously reported to decrease naturally upon aging. Here, we show that there is an initial increase in Bub1b/BubR1 levels, feasibly as part of the cells' response against OS-driven genomic instability, that is followed by its autophagy dependent degradation. This provides an explanation that was missing regarding the molecular entity responsible for the downregulation of Bub1b/BubR1 upon aging, especially since it is well established, by us and others, that the proteasome function decays as cells age. These results, not only serve the previously reported notion of a shift from proteasome to autophagy-dependent degradation upon aging, but also provide a mechanistic insight for mitotic errors-driven senescence. We believe that our conclusions deepen our understanding regarding the homeostatic function of autophagy that serves the establishment of senescence as a barrier against cellular transformation.

Abstract
The microenvironments with high reactive-oxygen-species (ROS) levels, inflammatory responses, and oxidative-stress effects in diabetic ulcer wounds, leading to poor proliferation and differentiation of stem cells, severely inhibit their efficient healing. Here, to overcome the unbalanced multielectron reactions in ROS catalysis, we develop a cobalt selenide-based biocatalyst with an amorphous Ru@CoSe nanolayer for ultrafast and broad-spectrum catalytic ROS-elimination. Owing to the enriched electrons and more unoccupied orbitals of Ru atoms, the amorphous Ru@CoSe nanolayer-equipped biocatalyst displays excellent catalase-like kinetics (maximal reaction velocity, 23.05 μM s-1; turnover number, 2.00 s-1), which exceeds most of the currently reported metal compounds. The theoretical studies show that Ru atoms act as "regulators" to tune the electronic state of the Co sites and modulate the interaction of oxygen intermediates, thus improving the reversible redox properties of active sites. Consequently, the Ru@CoSe can efficiently rescue the proliferation of mesenchymal stem cells and maintain their angiogenic potential in the oxidative stress environment. In vivo experiments reveal the superior ROS-elimination ability of Ru@CoSe on the inflammatory diabetic wound. This study offers an effective nanomedicine for catalytic ROS-scavenging and ultrafast healing of inflammatory wounds and also provides a strategy to design biocatalytic metal compounds via bringing amorphous catalytic structures.

Abstract
Osteochondral defects (OCD) cannot be efficiently repaired due to the unique physical architecture and the pathological microenvironment including enhanced oxidative stress and inflammation. Conventional strategies, such as the control of implant microstructure or the introduction of growth factors, have limited functions failing to manage these complex environments. Here we developed a multifunctional silk-based hydrogel incorporated with metal-organic framework nanozymes (CuTA@SF) to provide a suitable microenvironment for enhanced OCD regeneration. The incorporation of CuTA nanozymes endowed the SF hydrogel with a uniform microstructure and elevated hydrophilicity. In vitro cultivation of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) and chondrocytes showed that CuTA@SF hydrogel accelerated cell proliferation and enhanced cell viability, as well as had antioxidant and antibacterial properties. Under the inflammatory environment with the stimulation of IL-1β, CuTA@SF hydrogel still possessed the potential to promote MSC osteogenesis and deposition of cartilage-specific extracellular matrix (ECM). The proteomics analysis further confirmed that CuTA@SF hydrogel promoted cell proliferation and ECM synthesis. In the full-thickness OCD model of rabbit, CuTA@SF hydrogel displayed successfully in situ OCD regeneration, as evidenced by micro-CT, histology (HE, S/O, and toluidine blue staining) and immunohistochemistry (Col I and aggrecan immunostaining). Therefore, CuTA@SF hydrogel is a promising biomaterial targeted at the regeneration of OCD. A multifunctional silk-based hydrogel incorporated with metal-organic framework nanozymes (CuTA@SF) was fabricated. CuTA@SF hydrogel has antioxidant, anti-inflammation and antibacterial capacities. Proteomics analysis confirmed that CuTA@SF hydrogel promoted cell proliferation and ECM synthesis. CuTA@SF hydrogel displayed successful osteochondral regeneration in vivo.

Abstract
The effects of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) on the osteogenic differentiation of primary chicken mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) were investigated. MSCs were subjected to an osteogenic program and exposed to various concentrations of H2O2 for 14 days. Results showed that high concentrations of H2O2 (200 and 400 nM) significantly increased pro-apoptotic marker CASP8 expression and impaired osteogenic differentiation, as indicated by decreased mRNA expression levels of osteogenesis-related genes and reduced in vitro mineralization. In contrast, long-term H2O2 exposure promoted basal expression of adipogenic markers at the expense of osteogenesis in MSCs during osteogenic differentiation, and increased intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) production, as well as altered antioxidant enzyme gene expression. These findings suggest that long-term H2O2-induced ROS production impairs osteogenic differentiation in chicken MSCs under an osteogenic program.

Abstract
Microalgae as unicellular eukaryotic organisms demonstrate several advantages for biotechnological and biological applications. Natural derived microalgae products demand has increased in food, cosmetic and nutraceutical applications lately. The natural antioxidants have been used for attenuation of mitochondrial cell damage caused by oxidative stress. This study evaluates the in vitro protective effect of Chlorella vulgaris bioactive extracts against oxidative stress in human mesenchymal stromal/stem cells (MSCs). The classical solid-liquid and the supercritical extraction, using biomass of commercially available and laboratory cultivated C. vulgaris, are employed. Oxidative stress induced by 300 μM H2O2 reduces cell viability of MSCs. The addition of C. vulgaris extracts, with increased protein content compared to carbohydrates, to H2O2 treated MSCs counteracted the oxidative stress, reducing reactive oxygen species levels without affecting MSC proliferation. The supercritical extraction was the most efficient extraction method for carotenoids resulting in enhanced antioxidant activity. Pre-treatment of MSCs with C. vulgaris extracts mitigates the oxidative damage ensued by H2O2. Initial proteomic analysis of secretome from licensed (TNFα-activated) MSCs treated with algal extracts reveals a signature of differentially regulated proteins that fall into clinically relevant pathways such as inflammatory signaling. The enhanced antioxidative and possibly anti-inflammatory capacity could be explored in the context of future cell therapies.

Abstract
Asthma is a complex and heterogeneous disease characterized by chronic airway inflammation, airway hyperresponsiveness, and airway remodeling. Most asthmatic patients are well-established using standard treatment strategies and advanced biologicals. However, a small group of patients who do not respond to biological treatments or are not effectively controlled by available treatment strategies remain a clinical challenge. Therefore, new therapies are urgently needed for poorly controlled asthma. Mesenchymal stem/stromal cells (MSCs) have shown therapeutic potential in relieving airway inflammation and repairing impaired immune balance in preclinical trials owing to their immunomodulatory abilities. Noteworthy, MSCs exerted a therapeutic effect on steroid-resistant asthma with rare side effects in asthmatic models. Nevertheless, adverse factors such as limited obtained number, nutrient and oxygen deprivation in vitro, and cell senescence or apoptosis affected the survival rate and homing efficiency of MSCs, thus limiting the efficacy of MSCs in asthma. In this review, we elaborate on the roles and underlying mechanisms of MSCs in the treatment of asthma from the perspective of their source, immunogenicity, homing, differentiation, and immunomodulatory capacity and summarize strategies to improve their therapeutic effect.

Abstract
Background Eltrombopag (EP) is a small molecule that acts directly on hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) and megakaryocytes to stimulate the hematopoietic process. Mesenchymal stem/stromal cells (MSCs) are key hematopoietic niche regulators. Objectives We aimed to determine whether EP has any effect on MSC function and properties (especially on their hematopoietic-supporting ability) and if so, what changes (e.g. genome-wide transcriptomic alterations) are induced in MSC after EP treatment. Design/Methods MSCs were isolated from 12 healthy donors and treated with 15 µM and 50 µM of EP for 24 h. The toxicity of the drug on MSCs and their differentiation ability were analyzed, as well as the transcriptomic profile, reactive oxygen species (ROS) and DNA damage and the changes induced in the clonogenic capacity of HSCs. Results The results show that EP also modifies MSC functions, decreasing their adipogenic differentiation, increasing the expression of genes involved in hypoxia and other pathways related to oxygen homeostasis, and enhancing their ability to support hematopoiesis in vitro. Conclusion Our findings support the use of EP in cases where hematopoiesis is defective, despite its well-known direct effects on hematopoietic cells. Our findings suggest that further studies on the effects of EP on MSCs from patients with aplastic anemia are warranted.

Abstract
Myocardial infarction (MI) damages cardiomyocytes permanently and compromises cardiac function. Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) with the potential to differentiate into multiple lineages are considered as one of the best options for the treatment of MI. However, aging affects their regeneration capability. With age, reactive oxygen species (ROS) accumulate in cells ultimately causing cell death. To successfully utilize these stem cells in clinic, novel strategies to improve their functional capability should be explored. In this study, we aimed to enhance the cardiac regeneration potential of bone marrow MSCs derived from aging rats by treating them with antioxidants, rutin or quercetagetin in separate in vivo experiments. Oxidative stress was induced by treating MSCs of young and aging rats with different concentrations of H2O2 which resulted in an increase in the ROS level. MSCs were treated with rutin or quercetagetin at varying concentrations and exposed to H2O2. It was observed that both antioxidants significantly (P < 0.001) suppressed H2O2-induced intracellular ROS accumulation in a dose-dependent manner. An optimized concentration of 10 µM rutin or quercetagetin was used for the in vivo experiments. MI models were developed in aging rats by ligation of left anterior descending artery and treated MSCs were transplanted in the MI models. Echocardiography was performed after 2 and 4 weeks of cell transplantation to evaluate the functional status of the infarcted heart and histological analysis was performed after 4 weeks to assess cardiac regeneration. Significant improvement was observed in cardiac parameters including LVEF% (P < 0.001), LVFS% (P < 0.01 and P < 0.001), LVIDd (P < 0.01 and P < 0.001), LVIDs (P < 0.001), LVEDV (P < 0.001) and LVESV (P < 0.001) in the treated young as well as aging MSCs. It is concluded from these findings that rutin and quercetagetin treatment enhance the regeneration efficiency of young and aging MSCs in vivo. These antioxidants can be effectively utilized to improve cellular therapy for myocardial infarction by suppressing ROS production.

Abstract
Human mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are primary multipotent cells capable of differentiating into osteocytes, chondrocytes, and adipocytes when stimulated under appropriate conditions. The role of MSCs in tissue homeostasis, aging-related diseases, and cellular therapy is clinically suggested. As aging is a universal problem that has large socioeconomic effects, an improved understanding of the concepts of aging can direct public policies that reduce its adverse impacts on the healthcare system and humanity. Several studies of aging have been carried out over several years to understand the phenomenon and different factors affecting human aging. A reduced ability of adult stem cell populations to reproduce and regenerate is one of the main contributors to the human aging process. In this context, MSCs senescence is a major challenge in front of cellular therapy advancement. Many factors, ranging from genetic and metabolic pathways to extrinsic factors through various cellular signaling pathways, are involved in regulating the mechanism of MSC senescence. To better understand and reverse cellular senescence, this review highlights the underlying mechanisms and signs of MSC cellular senescence, and discusses the strategies to combat aging and cellular senescence.

Vitality-Enhanced Dual-Modal Tracking System Reveals the Dynamic Fate of Mesenchymal Stem Cells for Stroke Therapy. SMALL (WEINHEIM AN DER BERGSTRASSE, GERMANY) 2022; 18:e2203431. [PMID: 36180405 DOI: 10.1002/smll.202203431] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/02/2022] [Revised: 08/17/2022] [Indexed: 06/16/2023]
Abstract
Mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) therapy via intravenous transplantation exhibits great potential for brain tissue regeneration, but still faces thorny clinical translation challenges as the unknown dynamic fate leads to the contentious therapeutic mechanism and the poor MSC viability in harsh lesions limits therapeutic efficiency. Here, a vitality-enhanced dual-modal tracking system is designed to improve engraftment efficiency and is utilized to noninvasively explore the fate of intravenous transplanted human umbilical cord-derived MSCs during long-term treatment of ischemic stroke. Such a system is obtained by bioorthogonally conjugating magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) contrast and near-infrared fluorescence (NIRF) imaging nanoparticles to metabolic glycoengineered MSCs with a lipoic acid-containing extracellular antioxidative protective layer. The dynamic fates of MSCs in multi-dimensional space-time evolution are digitally detailed for up to 28 days using MRI and NIRF imaging equipment, and the protective layer greatly shields MSCs from reactive oxygen spices (ROS) degradation, enhances MSC survival, and engraftment efficiency. Additionally, it is observed that the bioengineered MSCs exhibit dynamic intelligent responses corresponding to microenvironment remodeling and exert enhanced therapeutic effects. This dual-modal tracking system enables long-term tracking of MSCs while improving their viability at the lesion sites, which may serve as a valuable tool for expediting the clinical translation of MSC therapy.

Free Radic Biol Med 2022; 192:1-12. [PMID: 36096355 DOI: 10.1016/j.freeradbiomed.2022.09.002] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/07/2022] [Revised: 08/30/2022] [Accepted: 09/05/2022] [Indexed: 11/22/2022]
Abstract
Tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) is an inflammatory cytokine involved in cell survival, apoptosis, and homeostasis. However, the regulatory effect of TNF-α on mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) redox regulation remains unknown. The process of delaying the senescence of MSCs and maintaining antioxidation mechanism is important in transplantation therapy to treat inflammatory diseases that result from restricted immunomodulatory effects of senescent MSCs. Thus, we examined the role of TNF-α-mediated signaling and its regulatory mechanisms on the senescence of umbilical cord blood-derived MSCs (UCB-MSCs) and identified its therapeutic efficacy in a collagen-induced arthritis (CIA) mouse model. We found that TNF-α increased fatty acid synthesis and lipid droplet (LD) formation through NF-κB/SREBP1-mediated FASN, SCD1, and DGAT2 expression, which protects UCB-MSCs from oxidative stress against accumulated toxic lipids. Additionally, DGAT2-mediated LD formation was regulated by TNF-α-activated TNF receptor (TNFR)1 signaling. We also found that storage of unsaturated FAs in LDs is regulated by SIRT5-dependent β-oxidation of FAs, which reduces mitochondrial ROS (mtROS) accumulation. Particularly, mtROS homeostasis was maintained by superoxide dismutase 2 (SOD2) upregulation through TNFR2-mediated SIRT5/Nrf2 signaling. In a CIA mouse model, UCB-MSCs transfected with SIRT5 siRNA exhibited reduced therapeutic effects compared with UCB-MSCs transfected with NT siRNA. Overall, the results indicated that SIRT5 plays a central role in protecting TNF-α-induced UCB-MSC senescence through FA β-oxidation and SOD2-mediated antioxidation.

Abstract
Developing reactive oxygen species (ROS)-scavenging nanostructures to protect and regulate stem cells has emerged as an intriguing strategy for promoting tissue regeneration, especially in trauma microenvironments or refractory wounds. Here, an electronic modulated metal oxide is developed via Mn atom substitutions in Co3 O4 nanocrystalline (Mn-Co3 O4 ) for highly efficient and multifaceted catalytic ROS-scavenging to reverse the fates of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) in oxidative-stress microenvironments. Benefiting from the atomic Mn-substitution and charge transfer from Mn to Co, the Co site in Mn-Co3 O4 displays an increased ratio of Co2+ /Co3+ and improved redox properties, thus enhancing its intrinsic and broad-spectrum catalytic ROS-scavenging activities, which surpasses most of the currently reported metal oxides. Consequently, the Mn-Co3 O4 can efficiently protect the MSCs from ROS attack and rescue their functions, including adhesion, spreading, proliferation, and osteogenic differentiation. This work not only establishes an efficient material for catalytic ROS-scavenging in stem-cell-based therapeutics but also provides a new avenue to design biocatalytic metal oxides via modulation of electronic structure.

Abstract
Joint disorders have become a global health issue with the growth of the aging population. Screening small active molecules targeting chondrogenic differentiation of bone marrow-derived stem cells (BMSCs) is of urgency. In this study, microfracture was employed to create a regenerative niche in rabbits (n = 9). Cartilage samples were collected four weeks post-surgery. Microfracture-caused morphological (n = 3) and metabolic (n = 6) changes were detected. Non-targeted metabolomic analysis revealed that there were 96 differentially expressed metabolites (DEMs) enriched in 70 pathways involved in anti-inflammation, lipid metabolism, signaling transduction, etc. Among the metabolites, docosapentaenoic acid 22n-3 (DPA) and ursodeoxycholic acid (UDCA) functionally facilitated cartilage defect healing, i.e., increasing the vitality and adaptation of the BMSCs, chondrogenic differentiation, and chondrocyte functionality. Our findings firstly reveal the differences in metabolomic activities between the normal and regenerated cartilages and provide a list of endogenous biomolecules potentially involved in the biochemical-niche fate control for chondrogenic differentiation of BMSCs. Ultimately, the biomolecules may serve as anti-aging supplements for chondrocyte renewal or as drug candidates for cartilage regenerative medicine.

Abstract
Neurodegenerative disorders are a critical affection with a high incidence around the world. Currently, there are no effective treatments to solve this problem. However, the application of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) and antioxidants in neurodegenerative diseases has shown to be a promising tool due to their multiple therapeutic effects. This work aimed to evaluate the effects of a combination of resveratrol (RSV) and coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10) on the proliferation and differentiation of MSC and the protector effects in induced damage. To characterize the MSCs, we performed flow cytometry, protocols of cellular differentiation, and immunocytochemistry analysis. The impact of RSV + CoQ10 in proliferation was evaluated by supplementing 2.5 and 10 μM of RSV + CoQ10 in a cellular kinetic for 14 days. Cell viability and lactate dehydrogenase levels (LDH) were also analyzed. The protective effect of RSV + CoQ10 was assessed by supplementing the treatment to damaged MSCs by 1-methyl-4-phenylpyridinium (MPP+); cellular viability, LDH, and reactive oxygen species (ROS) were evaluated.. MSCs expressed the surface markers CD44, CD73, CD90, and CD105 and showed multipotential ability. The combination of RSV + CoQ10 increased the proliferation potential and cell viability and decreased LDH levels. In addition, it reverted the effect of MPP+-induced damage in MSCs to enhance cell viability and decrease LDH and ROS. Finally, RSV + CoQ10 promoted the differentiation of neural progenitors. The combination of RSV + CoQ10 represents a potential treatment to improve MSCs capacities and protect against neurodegenerative damage.

Abstract
Ubiquitin-specific protease 7 (USP7) is highly expressed in a variety of malignant tumors. However, the role of USP7 in regulating self-renewal and differentiation of human bone marrow derived mesenchymal stromal cells (hBMSCs) remains unknown. Herein, we report that USP7 regulates self-renewal of hBMSCs and is required during the early stages of osteogenic, adipogenic, and chondrogenic differentiation of hBMSCs. USP7, a deubiquitinating enzyme (DUB), was found to be downregulated during hBMSC differentiation. Furthermore, USP7 is an upstream regulator of the self-renewal regulating proteins SOX2 and NANOG in hBMSCs. Moreover, we observed that SOX2 and NANOG are poly-ubiquitinated and their expression is downregulated in USP7-deficient hBMSCs. Overall, this study showed that USP7 is required for maintaining self-renewal and multipotency in cultured hBMSCs. Targeting USP7 might be a novel strategy to preserve the self-renewal capacity of hBMSCs intended for stem cell therapy.

Stem Cell Res Ther 2022; 13:359. [PMID: 35883156 PMCID: PMC9327198 DOI: 10.1186/s13287-022-03018-4] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/31/2020] [Accepted: 04/17/2022] [Indexed: 02/04/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Osteoporosis affects the mandible resulting in bone loss. Though impairments are not life threatening, they affect a person's quality-of-life particularly vulnerable elderly. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are novel regulatory factors that play an important role in regulating bone metabolism. Autophagy is evolutionarily conserved intracellular self-degradation process and is vital in the maintenance of both miRNA and bone homeostasis. However, the role of autophagy in the pathogenesis of miRNA regulating osteoporosis remains unclear. METHODS In the study, we established a rat osteoporosis model induced by ovariectomy (OVX) and isolated mesenchymal stem cells from mandible (MMSCs-M). Several miRNAs were identified to regulate osteoporosis in some studies. qRT-PCR was applied to examine the expression of miRNA, autophagy and osteogenic differentiation-related genes. Western blotting assays were performed to detect the expression of autophagy and osteogenic differentiation proteins. Immunofluorescence and transmission electron microscope were used to verify the autophagy activity. Transfecting technology was used to enhance or suppress the expression of miR-152-5p which enable us to observe the relationship between miR-152-5p, autophagy and osteogenic differentiation. Additionally, the measurement of reactive oxygen species was used to investigate the mechanism of autophagy affecting osteogenic differentiation. RESULTS We found an upregulated expression of miR-152-5p in MMSCs-M in OVX group. Downregulated autophagy-related gene, proteins and autophagosome were detected in vitro of OVX group compared with sham group. Moreover, downregulation of miR-152-5p promoted osteogenic differentiation of MMSCs-M as well as enhanced autophagy-related proteins in OVX group. Conversely, overexpression of miR-152-5p showed opposite effect in sham group. Meanwhile, we found Atg14 (autophagy-related protein homolog 14) was identified to be a direct target of miR-152-5p theoretically and functionally. In other words, we confirmed inhibition of miR-152-5p promoted the osteogenic differentiation via promoting ATG14-mediated autophagy. Furthermore, miR-152-5p/ATG14-mediated autophagy regulated osteogenic differentiation by reducing the endogenous ROS accumulation and maintaining cellular redox homeostasis. CONCLUSION Our data suggest that miR-152-5p is the first identified to regulate osteogenic differentiation by directly targeting autophagy-related protein ATG14 and regulating oxidative stress and therapeutic inhibition of miR-152-5p may be an efficient anabolic strategy for osteoporosis.
