Abstract
Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a neurodevelopmental illness characterized by impaired social interaction and restricted repetitive behaviors or interests. The rising prevalence of ASD diagnosis has triggered a surge in research into investigating the underlying neuropathological processes and finding new therapeutic approaches. ASD is characterized by neuroinflammation and dysregulation of neuro-immune cross-talk, which suggests that stem cell treatment might be a potential therapeutic approach. The beneficial and restorative effects of stem cells are mainly due to their paracrine activity, in which stem cells generate and release extracellular vesicles such as exosomes and distinct secreted non-vesicle soluble proteins, including, growth factors, chemokines, cytokines, and immunomodulatory molecules referred to as the Secretome. In this paper, we reviewed the existing research exploring the therapeutic potential of stem cell secretome focusing on their role in addressing ASD pathology. Furthermore, we proposed a comprehensive mechanism of action for stem cell secretions, encompassing the broader secretome as well as the specific contribution of exosomes, in alleviating ASD neuropathology. Across the reviewed studies, exosomes and secreted soluble factors of the transplanted stem cell demonstrate a potential efficacy in ameliorating autistic-like behaviors. The proposed mechanism of action involves the modulation of signaling pathways implicated in neuroinflammation, angiogenesis, cellular apoptosis, and immunomodulation.

The mesenchymal stromal cell secretome promotes tissue regeneration and increases macrophage infiltration in acute and methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus-infected skin wounds in vivo. Cytotherapy 2024:S1465-3249(24)00758-8. [PMID: 38944795 DOI: 10.1016/j.jcyt.2024.06.007] [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: 04/07/2024] [Revised: 06/05/2024] [Accepted: 06/05/2024] [Indexed: 07/01/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND AIMS The prevalence of chronic wounds continues to be a burden in human medicine. Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) is commonly isolated from infected wounds. MRSA infections primarily delay healing by impairing local immune cell functions. This study aimed to investigate the potential of mesenchymal stromal cell (MSC)-secreted bioactive factors, defined as the secretome, to improve innate immune responses in vivo. MSCs were isolated from the bone marrow of horses, which serve as valuable translational models for wound healing. The MSC secretome, collected as conditioned medium (CM), was evaluated in vivo using mouse models of acute and MRSA-infected skin wounds. METHODS Punch biopsies were used to create two full-thickness skin wounds on the back of each mouse. Acute wounds were treated daily with control medium or bone marrow-derived MSC (BM-MSC) CM. The antibiotic mupirocin was administered as a positive control for the MRSA-infected wound experiments. Wounds were photographed daily, and wound images were measured to determine the rate of closure. Trichrome staining was carried out to examine wound tissue histologically, and immunofluorescence antibody binding was used to assess immune cell infiltration. Wounds in the MRSA-infected model were swabbed for quantification of bacterial load. RESULTS Acute wounds treated with BM-MSC CM showed accelerated wound closure compared with controls, as illustrated by enhanced granulation tissue formation and resolution, increased vasculature and regeneration of hair follicles. This treatment also led to increased neutrophil and macrophage infiltration. Chronic MRSA-infected wounds treated with BM-MSC CM showed reduced bacterial load accompanied by better resolution of granulation tissue formation and increased infiltration of pro-healing M2 macrophages compared with control-treated infected wounds. CONCLUSIONS Collectively, our findings indicate that BM-MSC CM exerts pro-healing, immunomodulatory and anti-bacterial effects on wound healing in vivo, validating further exploration of the MSC secretome as a novel treatment option to improve healing of both acute and chronic wounds, especially those infected with antibiotic-resistant bacteria.

Abstract
Hard-to-heal wounds are an important public health issue worldwide, with a significant impact on the quality of life of patients. It is estimated that approximately 1-2% of the global population suffers from difficult wounds, which can be caused by a variety of factors such as trauma, infections, chronic diseases like diabetes or obesity, or poor health conditions. Hard-to-heal wounds are often characterized by a slow and complicated healing process, which can lead to serious complications such as infections, pressure ulcers, scar tissue formation, and even amputations. These complications can have a significant impact on the mobility, autonomy, and quality of life of patients, leading to an increase in healthcare and social costs associated with wound care. The preparation of the wound bed is a key concept in the management of hard-to-heal wounds, with the aim of promoting an optimal environment for healing. The TIME (Tissue, Infection/Inflammation, Moisture, Edge) model is a systematic approach used to assess and manage wounds in a targeted and personalized way. The concept of TIMER, expanding the TIME model, further focuses on regenerative processes, paying particular attention to promoting tissue regeneration and wound healing in a more effective and comprehensive way. The new element introduced in the TIMER model is "Regeneration", which highlights the importance of activating and supporting tissue regeneration processes to promote complete and lasting wound healing. Regenerative therapies can include a wide range of approaches, including cellular therapies, growth factors, bioactive biomaterials, stem cell therapies, and growth factor therapies. These therapies aim to promote the formation of new healthy tissues, reduce inflammation, improve vascularization, and stimulate cellular proliferation to accelerate wound closure and prevent complications. Thanks to continuous progress in research and development of regenerative therapies, more and more patients suffering from difficult wounds can benefit from innovative and promising solutions to promote faster and more effective healing, improve quality of life, and reduce the risk of long-term complications.

Abstract
Conditioned media refers to a collection of the used cell culture media. The goal of this study was to evaluate the possible impacts of different conditioned media collected across a number of cycles on the fibroblast proliferation, migration, and profiles of protein release. Human dermal fibroblast (HDF) cells and Wharton jelly mesenchymal stem cells (WJMSC) were cultured and incubated for 3 days prior to being harvested as cycle-1 using the serum-free media F12:DMEM and DMEM, respectively. The procedures were repeatedly carried out until the fifth cycle of conditioned media collection. An in-vitro scratch assay was conducted to measure the effectiveness of wound healing. Collagen hydrogel was combined separately with both the Wharton jelly-conditioned medium (WJCM) and the dermal fibroblast-conditioned medium (DFCM) in order to evaluate the protein release profile. The conditioned medium from many cycles had a lower level of fibroblast attachment than the control (complete medium); however, the growth rate increased from 100 to 250 h-1, when supplemented with a conditioned medium collected from multiple cycles. The wound scratch assay showed that fibroblast cell migration was significantly increased by repeating cycles up to cycle-5 of DFCM, reaching 98.73 ± 1.11%. This was faster than the rate of migration observed in the cycle-5 of the WJCM group, which was 27.45 ± 5.55%. Collagen hydrogel from multiple cycles of DFCM and WJCM had a similar protein release profile. These findings demonstrate the potential for employing repeated cycles of DFCM- and WJCM-released proteins with collagen hydrogel for applications in wound healing.

Abstract
Wound healing, particularly for chronic wounds, presents a considerable difficulty due to differences in biochemical and cellular processes that occur in different types of wounds. Recent technological breakthroughs have notably advanced the understanding of diagnostic and therapeutic approaches to wound healing. The evolution in wound care has seen a transition from traditional textile dressings to a variety of advanced alternatives, including self-healing hydrogels, hydrofibers, foams, hydrocolloids, environment responsive dressings, growth factor-based therapy, bioengineered skin substitutes, and stem cell and gene therapy. Technological advancements, such as 3D printing and electronic skin (e-skin) therapy, contribute to the customization of wound healing. Despite these advancements, effectively managing chronic wounds remains challenging. This necessitates the development of treatments that consider performance, risk-benefit balance, and cost-effectiveness. This review discusses innovative strategies for the healing of chronic wounds. Incorporating biomarkers into advanced dressings, coupled with corresponding biosensors and drug delivery formulations, enables the theranostic approach to the treatment of chronic wounds. Furthermore, integrating advanced dressings with power sources and user interfaces like near-field communication, radio frequency identification, and Bluetooth enhances real-time monitoring and on-demand drug delivery. It also provides a thorough evaluation of the advantages, patient compliance, costs, and durability of advanced dressings, emphasizing smart formulations and their preparation methods.

Abstract
How to effectively repair cutaneous wounds and promote skin rejuvenation has always been a challenging issue for clinical medicine and medical aesthetics. Current conventional medicines exhibit several drawbacks, including limited therapeutic effects, prolonged treatment periods, and high costs. As a novel cell-free therapy, the umbilical cord-derived mesenchymal stem cell (UCMSC) secretome may offer a promising approach for skin regeneration and rejuvenation. The UCMSC secretome is a collection of all proteins secreted by mesenchymal stem cells, including conditioned media, exosomes, and other substances. The UCMSC secretome has numerous abilities to accelerate acute wound healing, including high fibroblast and keratinocyte proliferative activity, pro-angiogenesis, anti-inflammation, anti-fibrosis, and anti-oxidative stress. Its impact on the four stages of wound healing is manifested by inducing the haemostasis phase, inhibiting the inflammation phase, promoting the proliferation phase, and regulating the remodelling phase. Furthermore, it is highly effective in the treatment of chronic wounds, alopecia, aging, and skin homeostasis disturbance. This review focuses on the clinical therapies and application prospects of the UCMSC secretome, encompassing its source, culture, separation, identification, storage, and pretreatment. Additionally, a discussion on the dosage, administration route, efficacy, and biosafety in the clinical situation is presented. This review aims to provide scientific support for the mechanistic investigation and clinical utilisation of the UCMSC secretome in wound healing and skin rejuvenation.

Abstract
The control of angiogenesis has the potential to be used for regulation of several pathological and physiological processes, which can be instrumental on the development of anticancer and wound healing therapeutical approaches. In this study, mesenchymal stem/stromal cells (MSCs) were seeded on magnetic-responsive gelatin, with or without heparin functionalization, and exposed to a static 0.08 T magnetic field (MF), for controlling their anti-inflammatory and angiogenic activity, with the aim of accelerating tissue healing. For the first time, it was examined how the amount of heparin and magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) distributed on gelatin scaffolds affected the mechanical properties of the hydrogels and the morphology, proliferation, and secretome profiling of MSCs. The findings demonstrated that the addition of MNPs and heparin affects the hydrogel swelling capacity and renders distinct MSC proliferation rates. Additionally, MF acts as a topographical cue to guide MSCs alignment and increases the level of expression of specific genes and proteins that promote angiogenesis. The results also suggested that the presence of higher amounts of heparin (10 μg/cm3) interferes with the secretion and limits the capacity of angiogenic factors to diffuse through the hydrogel and into the culture medium. Ultimately, this study shows that acellular heparinized hydrogels efficiently retain the angiogenic growth factors released by magnetically stimulated MSCs thus rendering superior wound contraction (55.8% ± 0.4%) and cell migration rate (49.4% ± 0.4%), in comparison to nonheparinized hydrogels (35.2% ± 0.7% and 37.8% ± 0.7%, respectively). Therefore, these heparinized magnetic hydrogels can be used to facilitate angiogenesis in various forms of tissue damage including bone defects, skin wounds, and cardiovascular diseases, leading to enhanced tissue regeneration.

Abstract
The skin is the largest organ and a crucial barrier for protection against various intrinsic and extrinsic factors. As we age, the skin's components become more vulnerable to damage, forming wrinkles. Among different procedures, hyaluronic acid-based hydrogel has been extensively utilized for skin regeneration and reducing wrinkles. However, it has limitations like low retention and weak mechanical properties. In this study, we suggested the poly(l-lactic acid) (PLLA) microparticles containing alkaline magnesium hydroxide and nitric oxide-generating zinc oxide and rejuvenative hyaluronic acid (HA) hydrogels including these functional microparticles and asiaticoside, creating a novel delivery system for skin rejuvenation and regeneration. The fabricated rejuvenative hydrogels have exhibited enhanced biocompatibility, pH neutralization, reactive oxygen species scavenging, collagen biosynthesis, and angiogenesis capabilities in vitro and in vivo. Additionally, an excellent volume retention ability was demonstrated due to the numerous hydrogen bonds that formed between hyaluronic acid and asiaticoside. Overall, our advanced injectable hydrogel containing functional microparticles, with controlled release of bioactive molecules, has a significant potential for enhancing the regeneration and rejuvenation of the skin.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The skin, a vital organ protecting against microorganisms and dehydration, undergoes structural decline with aging, leading to visible issues such as wrinkles and sagging. Reduced blood vessels exacerbate vulnerability, hindering optimal cellular function and compromising skin health. Polydioxanone (PDO) biomaterials address aging concerns but produce acidic byproducts, causing inflammation. Inorganic particles and nitric oxide (NO) play crucial roles in inhibiting inflammation and promoting skin regeneration. Stem cell-derived extracellular vesicles (EVs) contribute to intercellular communication, offering the potential to enhance cell functions. The study proposes a method to enhance PDO-based medical devices by incorporating inorganic particles and immobilizing EVs, focusing on facial rejuvenation, anti-inflammatory response, collagen formation, and angiogenesis. METHOD PDO composites with inorganic particles such as magnesium hydroxide (MH) and zinc oxide (ZO) were prepared and followed by EV immobilization. Comprehensive characterization included biocompatibility, anti-inflammation, collagen formation ability, and angiogenesis ability. RESULTS Bulk-modified PDO composites demonstrated even dispersion of inorganic particles, pH neutralization, and enhanced biocompatibility. EVs immobilized on the composite surface exhibited spherical morphology. Inflammation-related gene expressions decreased, emphasizing anti-inflammatory effects. Collagen-related gene and protein expressions increased, showcasing collagen formation ability. In addition, angiogenic capabilities were notably improved, indicating potential for skin rejuvenation. CONCLUSION The study successfully developed and characterized PDO composites with inorganic particles and EVs, demonstrating promising attributes for medical applications. These composites exhibit biocompatibility, anti-inflammatory properties, collagen formation ability, and angiogenic potential, suggesting their utility in skin rejuvenation and tissue engineering. Further research and clinical validation are essential.

Abstract
Diabetes is one of the most significant causes of death all over the world. This illness, due to abnormal blood glucose levels, leads to impaired wound healing and, as a result, foot ulcers. These ulcers cannot heal quickly in diabetic patients and may finally result in amputation. In recent years, different research has been conducted to heal diabetic foot ulcers: one of them is using cold atmospheric pressure plasma. Nowadays, cold atmospheric pressure plasma is highly regarded in medicine because of its positive effects and lack of side effects. These conditions have caused plasma to be considered a promising technology in medicine and especially diabetic wound healing because studies show that it can heal chronic wounds that are resistant to standard treatments. The positive effects of plasma are due to different reactive species, UV radiation, and electromagnetic fields. This work reviews ongoing cold atmospheric pressure plasma improvements in diabetic wound healing. It shows that plasma can be a promising tool in treating chronic wounds, including ones resulting from diabetes.

Abstract
As a superior alternative to sutures, tissue adhesives have been developed significantly in recent years. However, existing tissue adhesives struggle to form fast and stable adhesion between tissue interfaces, bond weakly in wet environments and lack bioactivity. In this study, a degradable and bioactive citrate-based polyurethane adhesive is constructed to achieve rapid and strong tissue adhesion. The hydrophobic layer was created with polycaprolactone to overcome the bonding failure between tissue and adhesion layer in wet environments, which can effectively improve the wet bonding strength. This citrate-based polyurethane adhesive provides rapid, non-invasive, liquid-tight and seamless closure of skin incisions, overcoming the limitations of sutures and commercial tissue adhesives. In addition, it exhibits biocompatibility, biodegradability and hemostatic properties. The degradation product citrate could promote the process of angiogenesis and accelerate wound healing. This study provides a novel approach to the development of a fast-adhering wet tissue adhesive and provides a valuable contribution to the development of polyurethane-based tissue adhesives.

Abstract
Aim: To profile and study the proteins responsible for the beneficial effect of the TNF-α-induced human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells (hUCMSCs) secretome in wound healing. Methods: The hUCMSCs secretome was generated with (induced) or without (uninduced) TNF-α and was subsequently analyzed by liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry, immunoassay and in vitro scratch assay. Results: Proteomic analysis revealed approximately 260 proteins, including 51 and 55 unique proteins in the induced and uninduced secretomes, respectively. Gene ontology analysis disclosed that differential proteins in the induced secretome mainly involved inflammation-related terms. The induced secretome, consisting of higher levels of FGFb, VEGF, PDGF and IL-6, significantly accelerated wound closure and enhanced MMP-13 secretion in HaCaT keratinocytes. Conclusion: The secretome from induced hUCMSCs includes factors that promote wound closure.

Abstract
Biopolymer microbeads present substantial benefits for cell expansion, tissue engineering, and drug release applications. However, a fabrication system capable of producing homogeneous microspheres with high precision and controllability for cell proliferation, passaging, harvesting and downstream application is limited. Therefore, we developed a co-flow microfluidics-based system for the generation of uniform and size-controllable gelatin-based microcarriers (GMs) for mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) expansion and tissue engineering. Our evaluation of GMs revealed superior homogeneity and efficiency of cellular attachment, expansion and harvest, and MSCs expanded on GMs exhibited high viability while retaining differentiation multipotency. Optimization of passaging and harvesting protocols was achieved through the addition of blank GMs and treatment with collagenase, respectively. Furthermore, we demonstrated that MSC-loaded GMs were printable and could serve as building blocks for tissue regeneration scaffolds. These results suggested that our platform held promise for the fabrication of uniform GMs with downstream application of MSC culture, expansion and tissue engineering.

Abstract
Skin tissue engineering possesses great promise in providing successful wound injury and tissue loss treatments that current methods cannot treat or achieve a satisfactory clinical outcome. A major field direction is exploring bioscaffolds with multifunctional properties to enhance biological performance and expedite complex skin tissue regeneration. Multifunctional bioscaffolds are three-dimensional (3D) constructs manufactured from natural and synthetic biomaterials using cutting-edge tissue fabrication techniques incorporated with cells, growth factors, secretomes, antibacterial compounds, and bioactive molecules. It offers a physical, chemical, and biological environment with a biomimetic framework to direct cells toward higher-order tissue regeneration during wound healing. Multifunctional bioscaffolds are a promising possibility for skin regeneration because of the variety of structures they provide and the capacity to customise the chemistry of their surfaces, which allows for the regulated distribution of bioactive chemicals or cells. Meanwhile, the current gap is through advanced fabrication techniques such as computational designing, electrospinning, and 3D bioprinting to fabricate multifunctional scaffolds with long-term safety. This review stipulates the wound healing processes used by commercially available engineered skin replacements (ESS), highlighting the demand for a multifunctional, and next-generation ESS replacement as the goals and significance study in tissue engineering and regenerative medicine (TERM). This work also scrutinise the use of multifunctional bioscaffolds in wound healing applications, demonstrating successful biological performance in the in vitro and in vivo animal models. Further, we also provided a comprehensive review in requiring new viewpoints and technological innovations for the clinical application of multifunctional bioscaffolds for wound healing that have been found in the literature in the last 5 years.

Abstract
Extracellular vesicle (EV) therapy recently had shown significant efficacy in various diseases. Serum starvation culture (SC) is one of the most widely used methods for collecting EVs. However, SC may cause inadvertent effects and eventually dampen the therapeutic potential of EVs. Therefore, we developed a novel method for EV collection, continuous nutrient supply culture (CC), which can provide an optimal condition for mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) by continuously supplying essential nutrients to MSCs. By comparing with SC strategy, we revealed that CC could maintain CC-MSCs in a normal autophagy and apoptotic state, which reduced the shunting of EV precursors in cells and useless information material carried by EVs. In CC-MSCs, the expression levels of endosomal sorting complexes required for transport (ESCRT) and targeting GTPase27 (Rab27) were upregulated compared to those in SC-MSCs. Besides, we analyzed the membrane transport efficiency of EV formation, which demonstrated the CC strategy could promote the formation of EV precursors and the release of EVs. In addition, miRNA analysis revealed that CC-EVs were enriched with anti-chronic inflammatory factors, which could inhibit the nuclear factor kappa-B (NF-κB) pathway, mitigate chronic inflammation, and effectively repair skin photo-aging damage.

Abstract
Regenerative endodontic treatment based on tissue engineering has recently gained interest in contemporary restorative dentistry. However, low survival rates and poor potential differentiation of stem cells could undermine the success rate of pulp regenerative therapy. Human gingival fibroblast-conditioned medium (hGF-CM) has been considered a potential therapy for tissue regeneration due to its stability in maintaining multiple factors essential for tissue regeneration compared to live cell transplantation. This study aimed to investigate the potency of hGF-CM on stem cells from human dental pulp (DPSC) in pulp regeneration. A series of experiments confirmed that hGF-CM contributes to a significant increase in proliferation, migration capability, and cell viability of DPSC after H2O2 exposure. Moreover, it has been proved to facilitate the odontogenic differentiation of DPSC via qRT-PCR, ALP (alkaline phosphatase), and ARS (Alizarin Red S) staining. It has been discovered that such highly upregulated odontogenesis is related to certain types of ECM proteins (collagen and laminin) from hGF-CM via proteomics. In addition, it is found that the ERK pathway is a key mechanism via inhibition assay based on RNA-seq result. These findings demonstrate that hGF-CM could be beneficial biomolecules for pulp regeneration.

Abstract
Wound healing of the oral and maxillofacial area affects the quality of life and mental health of the patient; therefore, effective therapies are required to promote wound healing. However, traditional treatment methods have limited efficacy. Exosomes secreted by stem cells used for oral and maxillofacial wound healing have shown outstanding results. Stem cell-derived exosomes possess the regenerative and repair ability of stem cells. Moreover, they are nontumorigenic and have good biosafety. However, the application of natural stem cell exosomes is limited owing to their low yield, impurity, lack of targeting, and low drug delivery rate. Many modification methods have been developed to engineered stem cell exosomes with beneficial properties, such as modifying parent cells and directly processing stem cell exosomes. These methods include coincubation, genetic engineering, electroporation, ultrasound, and artificial synthesis of engineered stem cell exosomes. These engineered stem cell exosomes can cargo nucleic acids, proteins, and small molecules. This gives them anti-inflammatory and cell proliferation regulatory abilities and enables the targeted promotion of efficient soft tissue repair after trauma. Engineered stem cell exosomes can decrease inflammation, promote fibroblast proliferation, and angiogenesis, and decrease scar formation to promote oral and maxillofacial wound healing, including diabetic and burn wounds. Thus, engineered stem cell exosomes are an effective treatment that has the potential for oral and maxillofacial wound healing.

The Discovery and Development of Natural-Based Biomaterials with Demonstrated Wound Healing Properties: A Reliable Approach in Clinical Trials. Biomedicines 2022; 10:biomedicines10092226. [PMID: 36140332 PMCID: PMC9496351 DOI: 10.3390/biomedicines10092226] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/30/2022] [Revised: 09/04/2022] [Accepted: 09/06/2022] [Indexed: 11/17/2022] Open
Abstract
Current research across the globe still focuses strongly on naturally derived biomaterials in various fields, particularly wound care. There is a need for more effective therapies that will address the physiological deficiencies underlying chronic wound treatment. The use of moist bioactive scaffolds has significantly increased healing rates compared to local and traditional treatments. However, failure to heal or prolonging the wound healing process results in increased financial and social stress imposed on health institutions, caregivers, patients, and their families. The urgent need to identify practical, safe, and cost-effective wound healing scaffolding from natural-based biomaterials that can be introduced into clinical practice is unequivocal. Naturally derived products have long been used in wound healing; however, clinical trial evaluations of these therapies are still in their infancy. Additionally, further well-designed clinical trials are necessary to confirm the efficacy and safety of natural-based biomaterials in treating wounds. Thus, the focus of this review is to describe the current insight, the latest discoveries in selected natural-based wound healing implant products, the possible action mechanisms, and an approach to clinical studies. We explore several tested products undergoing clinical trials as a novel approach to counteract the debilitating effects of impaired wound healing.
