Abstract
AIM Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS)/acute lung injury (ALI) is a severe clinical respiratory-failure disease mainly characterized by acute damage to the alveolar epithelium and pulmonary vascular endothelial cells. Stem cell therapy has emerged as a potential regenerative strategy for ARDS/ALI, however, the outcome is limited, and the underlying mechanisms are unclear. INTRODUCTION We established a differentiation system for bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cellderived (BM-MSC) type II alveolar epithelial progenitor cells (AECIIs) and assessed their regulatory effects on lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced ALI. METHODS We induced BM-MSC differentiation into AECIIs using a specific conditioned medium. After 26 days of differentiation, 3×105 BM-MSC-AECIIs were used to treat mice with LPS-induced ALI through tracheal injection. RESULTS After tracheal injection, BM-MSC-AECIIs migrated to the perialveolar area and reduced LPSinduced lung inflammation and pathological injury. RNA-seq suggested that P63 protein was involved in the effects of BM-MSC-AECIIs on lung inflammation. CONCLUSION Our results suggest that BM-MSC-AECIIs may reduce LPS-induced acute lung injury by decreasing P63 expression.

Abstract
The methylation of m6A (N6-position of adenosine) has been found to be associated with inflammatory response. We hypothesize that m6A modification plays a role in the inflammation of airway epithelial cells during lung inflammation. However, the precise changes and functions of m6A modification in airway epithelial cells in acute lung injury (ALI) are not well understood. Here we report that METTL3 (methyltransferase-like 3)-mediated m6A of GATA6 (GATA-binding factor 6) mRNA inhibits ALI and the secretion of proinflammatory cytokines in airway epithelial cells. The expression of METTL3 and m6A levels decrease in lung tissues of mice with ALI. In cocultures, peripheral blood monocytes secreted TNF-α, which reduces METTL3 and m6A levels in the human bronchial epithelial cell line BEAS-2B. Knockdown of METTL3 promotes IL-6 and TNF-α release in BEAS-2B cells. Conversely, overexpression of METTL3 increases total RNA m6A level and reduces the levels of proinflammatory cytokines TNF-α, transforming growth factor-β, and thymic stromal lymphopoietin. Increasing METTL3 in mouse lungs prevented LPS-induced ALI and reduced the synthesis of proinflammatory cytokines. Mechanistically, sequencing and functional analysis show that METTL3 catalyzes m6A in the 3' untranslated region of GATA6 read by YTH N6-Methyladenosine RNA Binding Protein 2 and triggers mRNA degradation. GATA6 knockdown rescues TNF-α-induced inflammatory cytokine secretion of epithelial cells, indicating that GATA6 is a main substrate of METTL3 in airway epithelial cells. Overall, this study provides evidence of a novel role for METTL3 in the inflammatory cytokine release of epithelial cells and provides an innovative therapeutic target for ALI.

Abstract
Acute lung injury (ALI) is characterized by severe inflammation. Vitamin D3 is discussed to reduce inflammation in ALI, but the mechanism is not well understood. This study assesses the effect of different calcitriol administration strategies on inflammation and the lung microbiota composition in ALI. In a mouse model, the alveolus and airway pathology are assessed by immunohistology. mRNA expression is determined by Real-Time Quantitative PCR and protein expressions is detected by Western-blotting. The composition of microbiota is performed by 16s DNA high-throughput sequencing. Short-term vitamin D3 supplementation prevents lipopolysaccharide-induced ALI by preventing pro-inflammatory cytokines including interleukin-1β (IL-1β), interleukin-6 (IL-6), and tumor necrosis factor α (TNF-α). In contrast, long-term treatment over 3 days, 6 days, or 10 days had no such effect. Short-term vitamin D3, but not long-term pretreatment significantly reduces the phosphorylation of signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 and suppressor of cytokine signaling 3, but upregulates the phosphorylation of inhibitor of nuclear factor-κ-gene binding. Furthermore, an increased relative abundance of Rodentibacter genus in LPS-challenged mice bronchoalveolar lavage fluid is observed, which is sensitive to short-term vitamin D3 treatment, effectively alleviating the Rodentibacter abundance. Correlation analysis shows that the load of Rodentibacter positively correlated with the IL-1β, IL-6, and TNF-α gene expression. The data support that a single administration of vitamin D3 may work as an adjuvant therapy for acute lung inflammation.

Abstract
Background Our previous studies have proved the efficient exogenous repairing responses via bone marrow stem and progenitor cells (BMSPCs). However, the trafficking of endogenous bone marrow stem and progenitor cells to and from the bone marrow (BM) is a highly regulated process that remains to be elucidated. We aimed to study the relative importance of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis in the glucocorticoid-induced BMSPC mobilization. Methods The circulating mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) and endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs) were examined in Crh (+/+, −/−) mice after running stress or glucocorticoid mini-infusion. The MSCs and EPCs were investigated ex vivo after treatment with glucocorticoid and glucocorticoid receptor (GR) antagonist, RU486. The expression of chemotaxis receptors, N-formyl peptide receptor (FPR), and Cys-X-Cys receptor 4 (CXCR4) of MSCs and EPCs as well as their colocalization were investigated after treatment with glucocorticoid, glucocorticoid receptor (GR) antagonist (RU486), and FPR antagonist (Cyclosporin H). Results Forced running stress increased circulating MSCs and EPCs in mice, which was blunted when Crh was knocked out, and positively related to the levels of serum glucocorticoid. Prolonged glucocorticoid mini-infusion imitated the stress-induced increase in circulating MSCs and EPCs in Crh+/+ mice and rescued the impaired mobilization in circulating MSCs and EPCs in Crh−/− mice. Meanwhile, glucocorticoid promoted the chemotaxis of MSCs and EPCs ex vivo via GR, inhibited by RU486 (10 μM). Concurrently, glucocorticoid increased the expression of FPR of MSCs and EPCs, but inhibited their expression of CXCR4, followed by their changing colocalization in the cytoplasm. The GC-induced colocalization of FPR and CXCR4 was blunted by Cyclosporin H (1 μM). Conclusion Glucocorticoid-induced CXCR4-FPR responsiveness selectively guides the mobilization of BMSPCs, which is essential to functional tissue repair. Graphical abstract Schematic view of the role of glucocorticoid on the mobilization of bone marrow-derived stem/progenitor cells subsets in the present study. The HPA axis activation promotes the release of glucocorticoid, which regulates the directional migration of MSCs and EPCs mainly via GR. The possible mechanisms refer to the signal coupling of FPR and CXCR4. Their two-sided changes regulated by glucocorticoid are involved in the egress of MSCs and EPCs from BM, which is helpful for wound healing. MSCs, mesenchymal stem cells; EPCs, endothelial progenitor cells.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Bronchiectasis is a common condition and a leading cause of respiratory morbidity and mortality. The treatment method for bronchiectasis is mainly symptomatic treatment or surgery; however, this condition is extremely prone to recurrence. OBJECTIVES To preliminarily evaluate the safety and efficacy of applying SOX9+ autologous airway basal cells (BCs) in patients with bronchiectasis. METHODS SOX9+ BCs were isolated from microscale tissue of a grade 3-5 bronchus by bronchoscopic brushing and expanded in vitro for approximately 4 weeks. Subsequently, the autologous SOX9+ BCs were transplanted into the diseased bronchus to treat patients with bronchiectasis. RESULTS The forced expiratory volume in1 second (FEV1)%, forced vital capacity (FVC)%, total lung capacity (TLC)%, residual volume (RV)% and RV/TLC ratio of predicted value in patients with bronchiectasis were improved at 4, 12, 24 and 48 weeks after cell transplantation, although the differences were not statistically significant (P > .05). Chest CT scans showed that the lesions in the pulmonary segment had not progressed at 4, 12 and 24 weeks after transplantation. No patients died during the follow-up. At 4, 12 and 24 weeks after transplantation, routine blood tests, liver function tests, renal function tests and myocardial enzymatic indexes were normal (P > .05). CONCLUSION Transplantation of autologous SOX9+ BCs has positive effects and is safe for patients with bronchiectasis.

Abstract
Introduction: Pneumothorax is defined as the presence of air in the pleural space. Spontaneous pneumothorax, occurring without antecedent traumatic or iatrogenic cause, is classified as primary or secondary. There are substantial inconsistencies in international guidelines for the treatment of pneumothorax. Moreover, many geographical variations exist in daily clinical practice.Areas covered: In this article, we focus on novel treatment modalities for this significant health problem in young adults.Expert opinion: In part, these discrepancies have been caused by the lack of high-quality trials or evidence. Currently, the pathophysiological mechanisms underlying pneumothorax are better understood and have implications for clinical management. Studies have demonstrated that the judicious use of pleurodesis can decrease its rate of recurrence, both in surgical and nonsurgical patients.

Abstract
Physical exercise (PE) has unquestionable beneficial effects on health, which likely extend into several organ-to-cell physiological processes. At the cell scale, endogenous mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) contribute to tissue repair, although their repair capacities may be insufficient in paucicellular or severely damaged tissues. For this reason, MSC transplantation holds great promise for tissue repair. With the goals of understanding if PE has beneficial effects on MSC biology and if PE potentiates their role in tissue repair, we reviewed literature reports regarding the effects of PE on MSC properties (specifically, proliferation, differentiation, and homing) and of a combination of PE and MSC transplantation on tissue repair (specifically neural, cartilage, and muscular tissues). Contradictory results have been reported; interpretation is complicated because various and different species, cell sources, and experimental protocols, specifically exercise programs, have been used. On the basis of these data, the effects of exercise on MSC proliferation and differentiation depend on exercise characteristics (type, intensity, duration, etc.) and on the characteristics of the tissue from which the MSCs were collected. For the in vitro studies, the level of strain (and other details of the mechanical stimulus), the time elapsed between the end of exposure to strain and MSC collection, the age of the donors, as well as the passage number at which the MSCs are evaluated also play a role. The combination of PE and MSC engraftment improves neural, cartilage, and muscular tissue recovery, but it is not clear whether the effects of MSCs and exercise are additive or synergistic.

Abstract
Peripheral nerve injury (PNI) is a common life-changing disability of peripheral nervous system with significant socioeconomic consequences. Conventional therapeutic approaches for PNI have several drawbacks such as need to autologous nerve scarifying, surplus surgery, and difficult accessibility to donor nerve; therefore, other therapeutic strategies such as mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) therapy are getting more interesting. MSCs have been proved to be safe and efficient in numerous degenerative diseases of central and peripheral nervous systems. In this paper, we review novel biotechnological advancements in treating PNI using MSCs.

Abstract
Selectively recruiting bone marrow (BM)-derived stem and progenitor cells to injury sites is a promising therapeutic approach. The coordinated action of soluble factors is thought to trigger the mobilization of stem cells from the BM and recruit them to lesions to contribute to tissue regeneration. Nevertheless, the temporal response profile of the major cellular players and soluble factors involved in priming the BM and recruiting BM-derived cells to promote regeneration is unknown. We show that injury alters the BM cellular composition, introducing population-specific fluctuations during tissue regeneration. We demonstrate that injury causes an immediate, transient response of mesenchymal stromal cells and endothelial cells followed by a nonoverlapping increase in hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells. Moreover, BM reaction is identical whether the injury is inflicted on skin and muscle or also involves a bone defect, but these 2 injury paradigms trigger distinct systemic cytokine responses. Together, our results indicate that the BM response to injury in the early stages of regeneration is independent of the tissue-of-injury based on the 2 models used, but the injured tissue dictates the systemic cytokine response.-Leitão, L., Alves, C. J., Alencastre, I. S., Sousa, D. M., Neto, E., Conceição, F., Leitão, C., Aguiar, P., Almeida-Porada, G., Lamghari, M.

Cell-Free Strategies for Repair and Regeneration of Meniscus Injuries through the Recruitment of Endogenous Stem/Progenitor Cells. Stem Cells Int 2018; 2018:5310471. [PMID: 30123286 PMCID: PMC6079391 DOI: 10.1155/2018/5310471] [Citation(s) in RCA: 18] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/10/2018] [Accepted: 04/24/2018] [Indexed: 12/25/2022] Open
Abstract
The meniscus plays a vital role in protecting the articular cartilage of the knee joint. The inner two-thirds of the meniscus are avascular, and injuries to this region often fail to heal without intervention. The use of tissue engineering and regenerative medicine techniques may offer novel and effective approaches to repairing meniscal injuries. Meniscal tissue engineering and regenerative medicine typically use one of two techniques, cell-based or cell-free. While numerous cell-based strategies have been applied to repair and regenerate meniscal defects, these techniques possess certain limitations including cellular contamination and an increased risk of disease transmission. Cell-free strategies attempt to repair and regenerate the injured tissues by recruiting endogenous stem/progenitor cells. Cell-free strategies avoid several of the disadvantages of cell-based techniques and, therefore, may have a wider clinical application. This review first compares cell-based to cell-free techniques. Next, it summarizes potential sources for endogenous stem/progenitor cells. Finally, it discusses important recruitment factors for meniscal repair and regeneration. In conclusion, cell-free techniques, which focus on the recruitment of endogenous stem and progenitor cells, are growing in efficacy and may play a critical role in the future of meniscal repair and regeneration.

Abstract
During the occurrence and development of injury (trauma, hemorrhagic shock, ischemia and hypoxia), the neuroendocrine and immune system act as a prominent navigation leader and possess an inter-system crosstalk between the reciprocal information dissemination. The fundamental reason that neuroendocrinology and immunology could mix each other and permeate toward the field of traumatology is owing to their same biological languages or chemical information molecules (hormones, neurotransmitters, neuropeptides, cytokines and their corresponding receptors) shared by the neuroendocrine and immune systems. The immune system is not only modulated by the neuroendocrine system, but also can modulate the biological functions of the neuroendocrine system. The interactive linkage of these three systems precipitates the complicated space-time patterns for the courses of traumatic inflammation. Recently, compelling evidence indicates that the network linkage pattern that initiating agents of neuroendocrine responses, regulatory elements of immune cells and effecter targets for immune regulatory molecules arouse the resistance mechanism disorders, which supplies the beneficial enlightenment for the diagnosis and therapy of traumatic complications from the view of translational medicine. Here we review the alternative protective and detrimental roles as well as possible mechanisms of the neuroendocrine immune responses in traumatic inflammation.

Acute mobilization and migration of bone marrow-derived stem cells following anterior cruciate ligament rupture. Osteoarthritis Cartilage 2017; 25:1335-1344. [PMID: 28284998 DOI: 10.1016/j.joca.2017.03.004] [Citation(s) in RCA: 16] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/24/2016] [Revised: 02/21/2017] [Accepted: 03/01/2017] [Indexed: 02/02/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE Little is known regarding acute local and systemic processes following anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) rupture. No study has elucidated whether bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are mobilized into circulation and recruited to the injured joint. METHODS In Part 1, Lewis rats were randomized to noninvasive ACL rupture (Rupture) or non-injured (Control) (n = 6/group). After 72 h, whole blood MSC concentration was assessed using flow cytometry. Synovial fluid and serum were assayed for stromal cell-derived factor (SDF)-1α and cartilage degeneration biomarkers, respectively. In Part 2, 12 additional rats were randomized and intravenously-injected with fluorescently-labeled allogenic MSCs. Cell tracking was performed using longitudinal, in vivo and ex vivo near-infrared (NIR) imaging and histology. Synovium SDF-1α and interleukin (IL)-17A immunostaining was performed. Serum was assayed for SDF-1α and 29 other cytokines. RESULTS In Part 1, there was a significant increase in MSC concentration and synovial fluid SDF-1α in Rupture. No differences in cartilage biomarkers were observed. In Part 2, Rupture had significantly higher NIR signal at 24, 48, and 72 h, indicating active recruitment of MSCs to the injured joint. Ex vivo cell tracking demonstrated MSC localization in the synovium and myotendinous junction (MTJ) of the quadriceps. Injured synovia exhibited increased synovitis grade and higher degree of IL-17A and SDF-1α immunostaining. CONCLUSION ACL rupture induced peripheral blood mobilization of MSCs and migration of intravenously-injected allogenic MSCs to the injured joint, where they localized in the synovium and quadriceps MTJ.

Abstract
End-stage lung disease is the third leading cause of death worldwide, accounting for 400,000 deaths per year in the United States alone. To reduce the morbidity and mortality associated with lung disease, new therapeutic strategies aimed at promoting lung repair and increasing the number of donor lungs available for transplantation are being explored. Because of the extreme complexity of this organ, previous attempts at bioengineering functional lungs from fully decellularized or synthetic scaffolds lacking functional vasculature have been largely unsuccessful. An intact vascular network is critical not only for maintaining the blood-gas barrier and allowing for proper graft function but also for supporting the regenerative cells. We therefore developed an airway-specific approach to removing the pulmonary epithelium, while maintaining the viability and function of the vascular endothelium, using a rat model. The resulting vascularized lung grafts supported the attachment and growth of human adult pulmonary cells and stem cell-derived lung-specified epithelial cells. We propose that de-epithelialization of the lung with preservation of intact vasculature could facilitate cell therapy of pulmonary epithelium and enable bioengineering of functional lungs for transplantation.
