Abstract
Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are a promising cell source for stem cell therapy of intractable diseases in veterinary medicine, but donor-dependent cellular heterogeneity is an issue that influences therapeutic efficacy. Thus, we previously established immortalized cells that maintain the fundamental properties of primary cells, but functional evaluation had not been performed. Therefore, we evaluated the immunomodulatory capacity of the immortalized canine adipose-derived MSCs (cADSCs) in vitro and in vivo to investigate whether they maintain primary cell functions. C57BL/6J mice were treated with dextran sulfate sodium (DSS) to induce colitis, injected intraperitoneally with immortalized or primary cADSCs on day 2 of DSS treatment, and observed for 10 days. Administration of immortalized cADSCs improved body weight loss and the disease activity index (DAI) in DSS-induced colitic mice by shifting peritoneal macrophage polarity from the M1 to M2 phenotype, suppressing T helper (Th) 1/Th17 cell responses and inducing regulatory T (Treg) cells. They also inhibited the proliferation of mouse and canine T cells in vitro. These immunomodulatory effects were comparable with primary cells. These results highlight the feasibility of our immortalized cADSCs as a cell source for stem cell therapy with stable therapeutic efficacy because they maintain the immunomodulatory capacity of primary cells.

Abstract
Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), including Crohn's disease (CD) and ulcerative colitis (UC), is a group of chronic inflammatory diseases of the gastrointestinal tract. Repeated inflammation can lead to complications, such as intestinal fistula, obstruction, perforation, and bleeding. Unfortunately, achieving durable remission and mucosal healing (MH) with current treatments is difficult. Stem cells (SCs) have the potential to modulate immunity, suppress inflammation, and have anti-apoptotic and pro-angiogenic effects, making them an ideal therapeutic strategy to target chronic inflammation and intestinal damage in IBD. In recent years, hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) and adult mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) have shown efficacy in treating IBD. In addition, numerous clinical trials have evaluated the efficiency of MSCs in treating the disease. This review summarizes the current research progress on the safety and efficacy of SC-based therapy for IBD in both preclinical models and clinical trials. We discuss potential mechanisms of SC therapy, including tissue repair, paracrine effects, and the promotion of angiogenesis, immune regulation, and anti-inflammatory effects. We also summarize current SC engineering strategies aimed at enhancing the immunosuppressive and regenerative capabilities of SCs for treating intestinal diseases. Additionally, we highlight current limitations and future perspectives of SC-related therapy for IBD.

Abstract
Nitric oxide (NO) is an important gaseous signaling molecule in various physiological processes, which functions through interactions with its acceptor molecules located in organelles. NO has an extremely short half-life, making it challenging to experimentally achieve effective NO levels in organelles to study these interactions. Here we developed an organelle-specific, peptide-based NO delivery material that targets the nucleus. NO was attached to the SH group of a cysteine residue inserted into the N-terminus of a cell-penetrating peptide (CPP) conjugated to varying repeats of the nuclear localization signal (NLS), which we denoted NO-CysCPP-NLS, through S-nitrosylation. NO-CysCPP-NLS strongly induced osteogenic differentiation of mesenchymal stem cells. This delivery concept can be extended to cells other than stem cells to elucidate the effects of NO release in the nucleus. Furthermore, conjugation of NO to CysCPP fused to mitochondria- or lysosome-targeting signals can be used to deliver NO to other organelles such as mitochondria and lysosomes, respectively.

Abstract
Acute inflammatory diseases such as acute colitis, kidney injury, liver failure, lung injury, myocardial infarction, pancreatitis, septic shock, and spinal cord injury are significant causes of death worldwide. Despite advances in the understanding of its pathophysiology, there are many restrictions in the treatment of these diseases, and new therapeutic approaches are required. Mesenchymal stem cell-based therapy due to immunomodulatory and regenerative properties is a promising candidate for acute inflammatory disease management. Based on preclinical results, mesenchymal stem cells and their-derived secretome improved immunological and clinical parameters. Furthermore, many clinical trials of acute kidney, liver, lung, myocardial, and spinal cord injury have yielded promising results. In this review, we try to provide a comprehensive view of mesenchymal stem cell-based therapy in acute inflammatory diseases as a new treatment approach.

Abstract
Chlorogenic acid (CA) and sodium alginate (SA) each have good therapeutic effects on ulcerative colitis (UC) owing to their antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activity. This study aimed to investigate the effects of CA alone and in combination with SA on inflammatory cells and UC mice. In the Lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced RAW 264.7 inflammatory cell model, Nitric oxide (NO) and interleukin-6 (IL-6) levels were significantly lower after treatment with CA plus SA than with CA alone. In the DSS-induced UC mouse model, compared with CA alone, CA plus SA showed a better ability to alleviate weight loss, reduce the disease activity index (DAI), improve the colonic mucosa, reduce the expression of inflammatory factors in the serum and myeloperoxidase (MPO) in colonic tissue, increase superoxide dismutase (SOD) levels, protect the intestinal mucosa and regulate the abundance of Actinobacteriota, Lactobacillus, Bifidobacterium, Bacteroides, Subdoligranulum and Streptococcus. Thus, CA plus SA can improve the therapeutic efficacy of CA in UC by regulating inflammatory factors, oxidative stress, and the intestinal flora and by protecting ulcerative wounds. These findings broaden our understanding of the role of the combination of SA and CA in enhancing the effects of CA on UC and provide strategies for prevention and treatment.

Abstract
Inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD) are an example of chronic diseases affecting 40% of the population, which involved tissue damage and an inflammatory process not satisfactorily controlled with current therapies. Data suggest that mesenchymal stem cells (MSC) may be a therapeutic option for these processes, and especially for IBD, due to their multifactorial approaches such as anti-inflammatory, anti-oxidative stress, anti-apoptotic, anti-fibrotic, regenerative, angiogenic, anti-tumor, or anti-microbial. However, MSC therapy is associated with important limitations as safety issues, handling difficulties for therapeutic purposes, and high economic cost. MSC-derived secretome products (conditioned medium or extracellular vesicles) are therefore a therapeutic option in IBD as they exhibit similar effects to their parent cells and avoid the issues of cell therapy. In this review, we proposed further studies to choose the ideal tissue source of MSC to treat IBD, the implementation of new standardized production strategies, quality controls and the integration of other technologies, such as hydrogels, which may improve the therapeutic effects of derived-MSC secretome products in IBD.

Abstract
ETHNOPHARMACOLOGICAL RELEVANCE Ulcerative colitis (UC) is a chronic non-specific intestinal inflammatory disease, the pathogenesis of which is strongly associated with the compromised intestinal barrier. Paeoniae Radix Alba (PRA), the root of Paeonia lactiflora Pall., is a well-known traditional Chinese medicine and an adaptogen used in Hozai, exhibiting appreciable anti-inflammatory and immunomodulatory activity. Nevertheless, the role and mechanism of PRA in UC have yet to be elucidated. AIM OF THE STUDY This study was set out to examine the ameliorative effects of the aqueous extract of PRA (i.e., PRA dispensing granule, PRADG) on dextran sulfate sodium (DSS)-induced colitis. MATERIALS AND METHODS The chemical components of PRADG was analyzed by HPLC. Colitis model mice were induced by free access to water containing 2.5% DSS for 10 consecutive days, and concurrently, PRADG (0.1025 and 0.41 g/kg) or Salazosulfapyridine (SASP, 450 mg/kg) was given orally from day 1-10. Body weight, disease activity index (DAI), colon length, histologic scoring, and inflammatory response were assessed. Additionally, IL-23/IL-17 axis and tight junction (TJ) proteins, as well as gut microbiota were also investigated under the above-mentioned regimen. RESULTS Eight main chemical constituents of CPT were revealed with HPLC analysis. Noticeably, PRADG could effectively lower body weight loss as well as DAI scores, alleviate colon shortening, and reduce the levels of proinflammatory cytokines in mice with colitis. Further exploration found that increment of TJ proteins expression (ZO-1, occludin and claudin-1) and inhibition of IL-23/IL-17 axis-modulated inflammation were observed in PRADG-treated mice. Additionally, the diversity of gut microbiota and the relative abundance of beneficial bacteria were increased following PRADG treatment. CONCLUSIONS PRADG could be sufficient to ameliorate colitis by regulating the intestinal physical barrier, immune responses, and gut microbiota in mice. Our findings highlight that PRADG might be a prospective remedy for UC.

Abstract
Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is a chronic gut inflammation with periods of acute flares and remission. Beneficial effects of a single dose of mesenchymal stem cell (MSC)-based treatment have been demonstrated in acute models of colitis. No studies investigated therapeutic effects of MSCs for the attenuation of enteric neuropathy in a chronic model of colitis. The short and long-term effects of MSC treatment in modulating inflammation and damage to the enteric nervous system (ENS) were studied in the Winnie mouse model of spontaneous chronic colitis highly representative of human IBD. Winnie mice received a single dose of either 1 × 106 human bone marrow-derived MSCs or 100µL PBS by intracolonic enema. C57BL/6 mice received 100µL PBS. Colon tissues were collected at 3 and 60 days post MSC administration to evaluate the short-term and long-term effects of MSCs on inflammation and enteric neuropathy by histological and immunohistochemical analyses. In a separate set of experiments, multiple treatments with 4 × 106 and 2 × 106 MSCs were performed and tissue collected at 3 days post treatment. Chronic intestinal inflammation in Winnie mice was associated with persistent diarrhea, perianal bleeding, morphological changes, and immune cell infiltration in the colon. Significant changes to the ENS, including impairment of cholinergic, noradrenergic and sensory innervation, and myenteric neuronal loss were prominent in Winnie mice. Treatment with a single dose of bone marrow-derived MSCs was ineffective in attenuating chronic inflammation and enteric neuropathy in Winnie.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) therapy is a novel treatment strategy for cancer and a wide range of diseases with an excessive immune response such as ulcerative colitis (UC), due to its powerful immunomodulatory properties and its capacity for tissue regeneration and repair. One of the promising therapeutic options can focus on MSC-secreted exosomes (MSC-Exo), which have been identified as a type of paracrine interaction. In light of a wide variety of recent experimental studies, the present review aims to seek the recent research advances of therapies based on the MSC-Exo for treating UC and colorectal cancer (CRC). METHODS A systematic literature search in MEDLINE, Scopus, and Google Scholar was performed from inception to December 2021 using the terms [("colorectal cancer" OR "bowel cancer" OR "colon cancer" OR "rectal cancer") AND (exosome) AND (stem cell) AND ("inflammatory bowel disease" OR "Crohn's disease" OR "colitis")] in titles and abstracts. FINDINGS Exosomes derived from various sources of MSCs, including human umbilical cord-derived MSCs (hUC-MSCs), human adipose-derived MSCs (hAD-MSCs), human bone marrow-derived MSCs (hBM-MSCs), and olfactory ecto-MSCs (OE-MSCs), have shown the protective role against UC and CRC. Exosomes from hUC-MSCs, hBM-MSCs, AD-MSCs, and OE-MSCs have been found to ameliorate the experimental UC through suppressing inflammatory cells including macrophages, Th1/Th17 cells, reducing the expression of proinflammatory cytokines, as well as inducing the anti-inflammatory function of Treg and Th2 cells and enhancing the expression of anti-inflammatory cytokines. In addition, hBM-MSC-Exo and hUC-MSC-Exo containing tumor-suppressive miRs (miR-3940-5p/miR-22-3p/miR-16-5p) have been shown to suppress proliferation, migration, and invasion of CRC cells via regulation of RAP2B/PI3K/AKT signaling pathway and ITGA2/ITGA6. KEY MESSAGES The MSC-Exo can exert beneficial effects on UC and CRC through two different mechanisms including modulating immune responses and inducing anti-tumor responses, respectively.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Low-level light therapy (LLLT) is widely used for the photobiomodulation of cell behavior. Recent studies have shown that LLLT affects the proliferation and migration of various types of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs). However, there is a lack of studies investigating the effect of LLT on enhancing the immunomodulatory properties of tonsil-derived MSCs (T-MSCs). OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to investigate the immunomodulatory effects of conditioned media from T-MSCs (T-MSCs-CM) treated with LLLT in allergic inflammation. METHODS We isolated T-MSCs from human palatine tonsils and evaluated the ingredients of T-MSCs-CM. The effect of T-MSCs-CM treated with LLLT was evaluated in a mouse model of allergic rhinitis (AR). We randomly divided the mice into four groups (negative control, positive control, T-MSCs-CM alone, and T-MSCs-CM treated with LLLT). To elucidate the therapeutic effect, we assessed rhinitis symptoms, serum immunoglobulin (Ig), the number of inflammatory cells, and cytokine expression. RESULTS We identified increased expression of immunomodulatory factors, such as HGF, TGF-β, and PGE, in T-MSCs-CM treated with LLLT, compared to T-MSCs-CM without LLLT. Our animal study demonstrated reduced allergic symptoms and lower expression of total IgE and OVA-specific IgE in the LLLT-treated T-MSCs-CM group compared to the AR group and T-MSCs-CM alone. Moreover, we found that T-MSCs-CM treated with LLLT showed significantly decreased infiltration of eosinophils, neutrophils, and IL-17 cells in the nasal mucosa and reduced IL-4, IL-17, and IFN-γ expression in OVA-incubated splenocytes compared to the AR group. CONCLUSIONS The present study suggests that T-MSCs-CM treated with LLLT may provide an improved therapeutic effect against nasal allergic inflammation than T-MSCs-CM alone.

Abstract
Tonsil-derived mesenchymal stem cells (TMSCs) showed therapeutic effects on acute and chronic murine colitis models, owing to their immunomodulatory properties; therefore, we evaluated enhanced therapeutic effects of TMSCs on a murine colitis model using three-dimensional (3D) culture method. The expression of angiogenic factors, VEGF, and anti-inflammatory cytokines, IL-10, TSG-6, TGF-β, and IDO-1, was significantly higher in the 3D-TMSC-treated group than in the 2D-TMSC-treated group (P < 0.05). At days 18 and 30 after inducing chronic colitis, disease activity index scores were estimated to be significantly lower in the 3D-TMSC-treated group than in the colitis control (P < 0.001 and P < 0.001, respectively) and 2D-TMSC-treated groups (P = 0.022 and P = 0.004, respectively). Body weight loss was significantly lower in the 3D-TMSC-treated group than in the colitis control (P < 0.001) and 2D-TMSC-treated groups (P = 0.005). Colon length shortening was significantly recovered in the 3D-TMSC-treated group compared to that in the 2D-TMSC-treated group (P = 0.001). Histological scoring index was significantly lower in the 3D-TMSC-treated group than in the 2D-TMSC-treated group (P = 0.002). These results indicate that 3D-cultured TMSCs showed considerably higher therapeutic effects in a chronic murine colitis model than those of 2D-cultured TMSCs via increased anti-inflammatory cytokine expression.

Abstract
Background We explored whether stem cell therapy was effective for animal models and patients with Crohn’s disease (CD). Methods We searched five online databases. The relative outcomes were analyzed with the aid of GetData Graph Digitizer 2.26 and Stata 16.0 software. The SYRCLE risk of bias tool and the MINORS tool were used to assess study quality. Results We evaluated 46 studies including 28 animal works (n = 567) and 18 human trials (n = 360). In the animal studies, the disease activity index dramatically decreased in the mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) treatment groups compared to the control group. Rats and mice receiving MSCs exhibited longer colons [mice: standardized mean difference (SMD) 2.84, P = 0.000; rats: SMD 1.44, P = 0.029], lower histopathological scores (mice: SMD − 4.58, p = 0.000; rats: SMD − 1.41, P = 0.000) and lower myeloperoxidase levels (SMD − 6.22, P = 0.000). In clinical trials, stem cell transplantation reduced the CD activity index (SMD − 2.10, P = 0.000), the CD endoscopic index of severity (SMD − 3.40, P = 0.000) and simplified endoscopy score for CD (SMD − 1.71, P = 0.000) and improved the inflammatory bowel disease questionnaire score (SMD 1.33, P = 0.305) compared to control values. CD patients maintained high remission rates for 3–24 months after transplantation. Conclusions Stem cell transplantation is a valuable supplementary therapy for CD.

Abstract
BACKGROUND/AIM Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) have been suggested as an alternative therapeutic option in atopic dermatitis. Palatine tonsils are lymphoepithelial tissue located around the oropharynx and have been proposed as one of the important alternative sources of MSCs. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the protective and therapeutic effects of tonsil-derived MSCs (TMSCs) in a 2,4-dinitrofluorobenzene (DNFB)-induced mouse model of atopic dermatitis (AD). MATERIALS AND METHODS The effect of TMSCs was evaluated in 20 C57BL/6J mice that were randomly divided into four groups (normal, DNFB-PBS, DNFB-TMSC7, and DNFB-TMSC16 group). TMSCs were subcutaneously injected into DNFB-sensitized mice on day 7 (DNFB-TMSC7 group) and day 16 (DNFB-TMSC16 group). Several parameters of inflammation were assessed. RESULTS Subcutaneously injected TMSCs significantly improved the inflammatory symptoms in a DNFB-induced AD model mice, particularly showing therapeutic effects rather than protective effects. TMSC treatment inhibited T-cell-mediated inflammatory responses by decreasing the levels of IL-6, IL-1β, TNF-α (Th1 cell marker), IL-4 (Th2 cell marker), and B-cell-mediated serum IgE. In contrast, TMSCs enhanced the anti-inflammatory cytokine TGF-β. CONCLUSION In vitro and in vivo results suggest that TMSC treatment improved inflammatory skin lesions in the DNFB-induced AD mice model via immunomodulatory effects of the TMSCs. TMSCs inhibit T-cell and B-cell mediated responses, and enhance the anti-inflammatory responses.

Abstract
Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) have been spotlighted in the field of cell therapies as a promising tool for the treatment of intractable inflammatory diseases. However, their therapeutic potency still shows a gap between preclinical and clinical settings, and distinctive characteristics of specific tissue-derived MSCs and definitive ways to maximize their beneficial functions have not been fully elucidated yet. We previously identified the unique MSCs population from human palatine tonsil (TMSCs) and revealed their superior properties in proliferation and ROS regulation. Based on these findings, we explored further characteristics of TMSCs particularly focused on immunomodulatory function. We found the merit of TMSCs as a therapeutic agent that retains favorable MSCs properties until relatively late passages and revealed that pre-treatment of TNF-α can enhance the immunomodulatory abilities of TMSCs through the upregulation of the PTGS2/PGE2 axis. TMSCs primed with TNF-α effectively restrained the proliferation and differentiation of T lymphocytes and macrophages in vitro, and more interestingly, these TNF-α-licensed TMSCs exhibited significant prophylactic and therapeutic efficacy in a murine model of autoimmune-mediated acute colitis via clinical and histopathological assessment compared to unprimed naïve TMSCs. These findings provide novel insight into the optimization and standardization of MSCs-based anti-inflammatory therapies, especially targeting inflammatory bowel disease (IBD).

Abstract
BACKGROUND & AIMS Histidine decarboxylase (HDC), the histamine-synthesizing enzyme, is expressed in a subset of myeloid cells but also marks quiescent myeloid-biased hematopoietic stem cells (MB-HSCs) that are activated upon myeloid demand injury. However, the role of MB-HSCs in dextran sulfate sodium (DSS)-induced acute colitis has not been addressed. METHODS We investigated HDC+ MB-HSCs and myeloid cells by flow cytometry in acute intestinal inflammation by treating HDC-green fluorescent protein (GFP) male mice with 5% DSS at various time points. HDC+ myeloid cells in the colon also were analyzed by flow cytometry and immunofluorescence staining. Knockout of the HDC gene by using HDC-/-; HDC-GFP and ablation of HDC+ myeloid cells by using HDC-GFP; HDC-tamoxifen-inducible recombinase Cre system; diphtheria toxin receptor (DTR) mice was performed. The role of H2-receptor signaling in acute colitis was addressed by treatment of DSS-treated mice with the H2 agonist dimaprit dihydrochloride. Kaplan-Meier survival analysis was performed to assess the effect on survival. RESULTS In acute colitis, rapid activation and expansion of MB-HSC from bone marrow was evident early on, followed by a gradual depletion, resulting in profound HSC exhaustion, accompanied by infiltration of the colon by increased HDC+ myeloid cells. Knockout of the HDC gene and ablation of HDC+ myeloid cells enhance the early depletion of HDC+ MB-HSC, and treatment with H2-receptor agonist ameliorates the depletion of MB-HSCs and resulted in significantly increased survival of HDC-GFP mice with acute colitis. CONCLUSIONS Exhaustion of bone marrow MB-HSCs contributes to the progression of DSS-induced acute colitis, and preservation of quiescence of MB-HSCs by the H2-receptor agonist significantly enhances survival, suggesting the potential for therapeutic utility.

The Supernatant of Tonsil-Derived Mesenchymal Stem Cell Has Antiallergic Effects in Allergic Rhinitis Mouse Model. Mediators Inflamm 2020; 2020:6982438. [PMID: 32322164 PMCID: PMC7166282 DOI: 10.1155/2020/6982438] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/21/2020] [Accepted: 03/12/2020] [Indexed: 01/09/2023] Open
Abstract
Methods We isolated T-MSCs from human palatine tonsil and evaluated the ingredients of T-MSCs-CM. The effect of T-MSCs-CM was evaluated in the AR mouse model that was randomly divided into five groups (negative control, positive control, and T-MSCs-CM treated (0.1 mg, 1 mg, and 10 mg)). To investigate the therapeutic effect, we analyzed rhinitis symptoms, serum immunoglobulin (Ig), inflammatory cells, and cytokine expression. We also assessed T cell receptor signal, including MAP kinase (ERK/JNK), p65, and NFAT1. Results We identified the increment of TGF-β1, PGE2, and HGF in the T-MSCs-CM. In an animal study, the T-MSCs-CM-treated group showed significantly reduced allergic symptoms and infiltration of eosinophils and neutrophils in the nasal mucosa, whereas there was no significant difference in total IgE and the OVA-specific IgE level. Additionally, we found that the 10 mg T-MSCs-CM-treated group showed a significantly decreased IL-4 mRNA expression, compared to the (+) Con group. In the analysis of T cell receptor signal, the phosphorylation of MAP kinases, translocation of p65, and activation of NFAT1 were inhibited after T-MSCs-CM. Conclusions Our findings suggest that T-MSCs-CM showed a partial immunomodulatory effect on the AR mouse model by the inhibition of T cell activation via MAP kinase, p65, and NFAT1.

Abstract
Tonsil-derived mesenchymal stem cells (TMSC) have characteristics of MSC and have many advantages. In our previous studies, intraperitoneal (IP) injection of TMSC in acute and chronic colitis mouse models improved the disease activity index, colon length, and the expression levels of proinflammatory cytokines. However, TMSC were not observed to migrate to the inflammation site in the intestine. The aim of this study was to verify the therapeutic effect of conditioned medium (CM) released by TMSC (TMSC-CM) in a mouse model of dextran sulfate sodium (DSS)-induced chronic colitis. TMSC-CM was used after seeding 5×105 cells onto a 100 mm dish and culturing for 5-7 days. TMSC-CM was concentrated (TMSC-CM-conc) by three times using a 100 kDa cut-off centrifugal filter. Seven-week-old C57BL/6 mice were randomly assigned to the following 5 groups: 1) normal, 2) colitis, 3) TMSC, 4) TMSC-CM, and 5) TMSC-CM-conc. Chronic colitis was induced by continuous oral administration of 1.5% dextran sulfate sodium (DSS) for 5 days, followed by 5 additional days of tap water feeding. This cycle was repeated two more times (total 30 days). Phosphate buffered saline (in the colitis group), TMSC, TMSC-CM, and TMSC-CM-conc were injected via IP route 4, 4, 12, and 4 times, respectively. Reduction of disease activity index, weight gain, recovery of colon length, and decreased in the expression level of the proinflammatory cytokines, interleukin (IL)-1β, IL-6, and IL-17 were observed at day 30 in the treatment groups, compared to control. However, histological colitis scoring and the expression level of tumor necrosis factor α and IL-10 did not differ significantly between each group. TMSC-CM showed an equivalent effect to TMSC related to the improvement of inflammation in the chronic colitis mouse model. The data obtained support the use of TMSC-CM to treat inflammatory bowel disease without any cell transplantation.

Abstract
Canavalia gladiata, known as sword bean, has been used as a Chinese traditional medicine for anti-inflammatory effects. However, the action mechanisms of sword bean have not yet been clearly defined. In the present study, the whole parts of a ripened sword bean (RSB) and the green sword bean (GSB) containing bean pod were extracted with ethanol by reflux extraction. The two crude extracts (RSBE and GSBE) from RSB and GSB were validated by a liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC/MS/MS) analysis of gallic acid as a reference chemical. The anti-inflammatory effects of two sword bean extracts were extensively investigated using LPS-stimulated macrophage cells. First, RSBE and GSBE significantly inhibited the production of pro-inflammatory mediators, such as tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), interleukin-6 (IL-6), prostaglandinE2 (PGE2), and nitric oxide (NO) in LPS-induced RAW264.7 cells. RSBE and GSBE showed no cytotoxicity to RAW264.7 cells and mouse peritoneal macrophage cells. In addition, the overexpression of cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) and inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) induced by LPS in RAW264.7 cells was significantly decreased by RSBE and GSBE. Western blotting and immunostaining analysis showed that RSBE and GSBE inhibited the nuclear translocation of NF-κB subunits, which correlated with the inhibitory effects on inhibitor kappa B (IκB) degradation. In dextran sulfated sodium (DSS)-induced colitis mice model, RSBE restored body weight, colon length, and the levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines, such as TNF-α, IL-6, interleukin-1β (IL-1β), and interferon-γ (IFN-γ). In addition, RSBE significantly suppressed the expression of COX-2, iNOS, and NF-κB.

Abstract
Located near the oropharynx, the tonsils are the primary mucosal immune organ. Tonsil tissue is a promising alternative source for the high-yield isolation of adult stem cells, and recent studies have reported the identification and isolation of tonsil-derived stem cells (T-SCs) from waste surgical tissue following tonsillectomies in relatively young donors (i.e., under 10 years old). As such, T-SCs offer several advantages, including superior proliferation and a shorter doubling time compared to bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs). T-SCs also exhibit multi-lineage differentiation, including mesodermal, endodermal (e.g., hepatocytes and parathyroid-like cells), and even ectodermal cells (e.g., Schwann cells). To this end, numbers of researchers have evaluated the practical use of T-SCs as an alternative source of autologous or allogenic MSCs. In this review, we summarize the details of T-SC isolation and identification and provide an overview of their application in cell therapy and regenerative medicine.

Abstract
Preconditioning with inflammatory cytokines has improved mesenchymal stem cells characteristics, including differentiation and immunomodulating functions. In this study, we developed a preconditioning combination strategy using interleukin-1beta (IL-1β) and interferon-gamma (IFN-γ) to enhance the immuneregulatory ability of human umbilical cord blood-derived mesenchymal stem cells (hUCB-MSCs). Our results showed that hUCB-MSCs preconditioned with IL-1β and IFN-γ (primed hUCB-MSCs) created a statistically significant decrease in peripheral blood mononuclear cell proliferation, indicating that their immunosuppressive ability was increased. The secretion of PGE2, cyclooxygenase 2 mRNA expression, and indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase (IDO) mRNA expression in primed hUCB-MSCs was significantly higher than those in the untreated hUCB-MSCs or the IL-1β or IFN-γ only treated hUCB-MSCs. When inhibitors of IDO and PGE2 were treated, peripheral blood mononuclear cell proliferation, which is inhibited by primed hUCB-MSCs, was recovered. We found that Th1 T cell differentiation was also inhibited by PGE2 and IDO in the primed hUCB-MSCs, and Tregs differentiation was increased by PGE2 and IDO in the primed hUCB-MSCs. Furthermore, the primed hUCB-MSCs as well as supernatants increase CD4+ T cells migration. We demonstrated the therapeutic effects of primed hUCB-MSCs in dextran sulfate sodium-induced colitis model. In conclusion, we have demonstrated that primed hUCB-MSCs simultaneously enhance PGE2 and IDO and greatly improve the immunoregulatory capacity of MSCs, and we have developed an optimal condition for pretreatment of MSCs for the treatment of immune diseases. Our results raise the possibility that the combination of PGE2 and IDO could be therapeutic mediators for controlling immunosuppression of MSCs.

Abstract
Since the discovery of stem cells and multipotency characteristics of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs), there has been tremendous development in regenerative medicine. MSCs derived from bone marrow have been widely used in various research applications, yet there are limitations such as invasiveness of obtaining samples, low yield and proliferation rate, and questions regarding their practicality in clinical applications. Some have suggested that MSCs from other sources, specifically those derived from palatine tonsil tissues, that is, tonsil‐derived MSCs (TMSCs), could be considered as a new potential therapeutic tool in regenerative medicine due to their superior proliferation rate and differentiation capabilities with low immunogenicity and ease of obtaining. Several studies have determined that TMSCs have differentiation potential not only into the mesodermal lineage but also into the endodermal as well as ectodermal lineages, expanding their potential usage and placing them as an appealing option to consider for future studies in regenerative medicine. In this review, the differentiation capacities of TMSCs and their therapeutic competencies from past studies are addressed. stem cells2019;37:1252–1260

Abstract
Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is a prevalent chronic metabolic disorder accompanied by high blood glucose, insulin resistance, and relative insulin deficiency. Endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress induced by high glucose and free fatty acids has been suggested as one of the main causes of β-cell dysfunction and death in T2DM. Stem cell-derived insulin-secreting cells were recently suggested as a novel therapy for diabetes. In the present study, we demonstrate the therapeutic potential of tonsil-derived mesenchymal stem cells (TMSCs) to treat high-fat diet (HFD)-induced T2DM. To explore whether TMSC administration can alleviate T2DM, TMSCs were intraperitoneally injected in HFD-induced T2DM mice once every 2 weeks. TMSC injection markedly improved glucose tolerance and glucose-stimulated insulin secretion and prevented HFD-induced pancreatic β-cell hypertrophy and cell death. In addition, TMSC injection relieved the ER-stress response and preserved gene expression related to glucose sensing and insulin secretion. Moreover, administration of TMSC-derived conditioned medium induced similar therapeutic outcomes, suggesting paracrine effects. Finally, proteomic analysis revealed high secretion of insulin-like growth factor-binding protein 5 by TMSCs, and its expression was critical for the protective effects of TMSCs against HFD-induced glucose intolerance and ER-stress response in pancreatic islets. TMSC administration can alleviate HFD-induced-T2DM via preserving pancreatic islets and their function. These results provide novel evidence of TMSCs as an ER-stress modulator that may be a novel, alternative cell therapy for T2DM.

Abstract
Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) therapy has been applied to a wide range of diseases with excessive immune response, including inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), owing to its powerful immunosuppression and its ability to repair tissue lesions. Different sources of MSCs show different therapeutic properties. Engineering managements are able to enhance the immunomodulation function and the survival of MSCs involved in IBD. The therapeutic mechanism of MSCs in IBD mainly focuses on cell-to-cell contact and paracrine actions. One of the promising therapeutic options for IBD can focus on exosomes of MSCs. MSCs hold promise for the treatment of IBD-associated colorectal cancer because of their tumor-homing function and chronic inflammation inhibition. Encouraging results have been obtained from clinical trials in IBD and potential challenges caused by MSCs therapy are getting solved. This review can assist investigators better to understand the research progress for enhancing the efficacy of MSCs therapy involved in IBD and CAC.
