[PMID: 38494389 PMCID: PMC11123543 DOI: 10.1016/j.identj.2024.02.011] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/14/2023] [Revised: 02/12/2024] [Accepted: 02/16/2024] [Indexed: 03/19/2024] Open
Abstract
The decellularised extracellular matrix (dECM) of in vitro cell culture is a naturally derived biomaterial formed by the removal of cellular components. The compositions of molecules in the extracellular matrix (ECM) differ depending on various factors, including the culture conditions. Cell-derived ECM provides a 3-dimensional structure that has a complex influence on cell signalling, which in turn affects cell survival and differentiation. This review describes the effects of dECM derived from mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) on cell responses, including cell migration, cell proliferation, and cell differentiation in vitro. Published articles were searched in the PubMed databases in 2005 to 2022, with assigned keywords (MSCs and decellularisation and cell culture). The 41 articles were reviewed, with the following criteria. (1) ECM was produced exclusively from MSCs; (2) decellularisation processes were performed; and (3) the dECM production was discussed in terms of culture systems and specific supplementations that are suitable for creating the dECM biomaterials. The dECM derived from MSCs supports cell adhesion, enhances cell proliferation, and promotes cell differentiation. Importantly, dECM derived from dental MSCs shows promise in regenerative dentistry applications. Therefore, the literature strongly supports cell-based dECMs as a promising option for innovative tissue engineering approaches for regenerative medicine.

The influence of inflammation on the characteristics of adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells (ADMSCs) and tissue repair capability in a hepatic injury mouse model. Stem Cell Res Ther 2023; 14:334. [PMID: 37981679 PMCID: PMC10659042 DOI: 10.1186/s13287-023-03532-z] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/18/2023] [Accepted: 10/10/2023] [Indexed: 11/21/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are adult stem cells with self-renewal and multi-directional differentiation potential and possess the functions of immunomodulation, regulation of cell growth, and repair of damage. Over recent years, MSCs have been found to regulate the secretion of inflammatory factors and to exert regulatory effects on various lymphocytes in inflammatory states, and on the subsequent repair of tissue damage caused by inflammation. In the present study, we analyzed the effects of tissue inflammation on the characteristics of MSCs. METHODS Human fat derived from the infrapatellar fat pad (IPFP) of knees with differing degrees of inflammation was extracted from specimens derived from total knee arthroplasties. HE and immunohistochemical staining was performed to directly observe the evidence and degree of inflammation in human infrapatellar fat pad tissue in order to classify MSCs cells, by their origin, into highly inflamed and lowly inflamed groups, and to study the effect of tissue inflammation on cell acquisition rates via cellular counting data. Flow cytometry assays were performed to investigate the effect of tissue inflammation on MSC surface marker expression. Trilineage differentiation, including osteogenesis, adipogenesis, and chondrogenesis, was performed to assess the effect of tissue inflammation on the ability of MSCs to undergo directed differentiation. The effect of tissue inflammation on the ability of MSCs to proliferate was investigated via clone formation studies. RNA-sequencing was performed to evaluate the transcriptomes of MSCs derived from different areas of inflammation. The effect of tissue inflammation on tissue repair capacity and safety of MSCs was investigated via a murine model of acute liver injury. RESULTS The results of cell count data indicate that a high degree of tissue inflammation significantly decreases the acquisition rate of MSCs, and the proportion of CD34+ and CD146+ cells. The results of our trilineage differentiation assay show that a higher degree of inflammation decreases osteogenic differentiation and enhances adipogenic and chondrogenic differentiation of MSCs. However, these differences were not statistically significant. Clone formation assays indicate that the degree of tissue inflammation at the MSC source does not significantly affect the proliferative capacity of MSCs. The transcriptomes of MSCs remain relatively stable in fat pad tissues derived from both highly and lowly inflamed samples. The results of acute liver injury investigations in mice indicate that MSCs of high and low inflammatory tissue origin have no significant difference in their tissue repair capability. CONCLUSIONS High tissue inflammation at the source of MSCs reduces the acquisition rate of MSCs and the percentage of CD34+ and CD146+ cells acquisition. However, source tissue inflammation may not significantly affect trilineage differentiation potential and proliferative capacity of MSCs. Also, MSCs obtained from differing source degrees of inflammation retain stable and similar transcriptomic profile and are both safe and efficacious for tissue repair/regeneration without detectable differences.

Abstract
Metalloproteinases (MMP)s regulate developmental processes, control angiogenesis and wound healing, participate in the formation of immune receptors, and are expressed in stem cells. Retinoic acid (RA) is a potential modulator of these proteinases. The aim was to determine (1) MMPs' action in antler stem cells (ASCs) before and after differentiation into adipo-, osteo-, and chondrocytes and (2) the effect of RA on modifying MMP action in ASCs. Antler tissue from pedicle was collected approximately 40 days after antler casting, post mortem from healthy breeding five year old males (N = 7). The cells were isolated from the pedicle layer of periosteum after skin separation and cultured. The pluripotency of the ASCs was evaluated by mRNA expression for NANOG, SOX2, and OCT4. ASCs were stimulated with RA (100nM) and differentiated for 14 days. The MMP (1-3) and TIMP(1-3) (tissue inhibitor of MMPs) mRNA expression was determined in the ASCs, their concentrations in the ASCs and the medium after RA stimulation as well as profiles of mRNA expression for MMPs: 1-3 and TIMPs: 1-3 during differentiation of ASC to osteocytes, adipocytes and chondrocytes. RA increased MMP-3 and TIMP-3 mRNA expression and output (P < 0.05) and not influenced on MMP-1 and TIMP-1 mRNA expression and output in ASC (P > 0.05). Depending on differentiation of ASC to osteocytes, adipocytes or chondrocytes, MMPs`and TIMPs`expression profile fluctuates for all studied proteases and its inhibitors. The studies demand continuation considering the role of proteases in stem cells physiology and differentiation. The results may be relevant for the study of cellular processes during the cancerogenesis of tumor stem cells.

Abstract
Cancer is a severe threat to human life and health and represents the main cause of death globally. Drug therapy is one of the primary means of treating cancer; however, most anticancer medications do not proceed beyond preclinical testing because the conditions of actual human tumors are not effectively mimicked by traditional tumor models. Hence, bionic in vitro tumor models must be developed to screen for anticancer drugs. Three-dimensional (3D) bioprinting technology can produce structures with built-in spatial and chemical complexity and models with accurately controlled structures, a homogeneous size and morphology, less variation across batches, and a more realistic tumor microenvironment (TME). This technology can also rapidly produce such models for high-throughput anticancer medication testing. This review describes 3D bioprinting methods, the use of bioinks in tumor models, and in vitro tumor model design strategies for building complex tumor microenvironment features using biological 3D printing technology. Moreover, the application of 3D bioprinting in vitro tumor models in drug screening is also discussed.

Abstract
In view of their low immunogenicity, biomimetic internal environment, tissue- and organ-like physicochemical properties, and functionalization potential, decellularized extracellular matrix (dECM) materials attract considerable attention and are widely used in tissue engineering. This review describes the composition of extracellular matrices and their role in stem-cell differentiation, discusses the advantages and disadvantages of existing decellularization techniques, and presents methods for the functionalization and characterization of decellularized scaffolds. In addition, we discuss progress in the use of dECMs for cartilage, skin, nerve, and muscle repair and the transplantation or regeneration of different whole organs (e.g., kidneys, liver, uterus, lungs, and heart), summarize the shortcomings of using dECMs for tissue and organ repair after refunctionalization, and examine the corresponding future prospects. Thus, the present review helps to further systematize the application of functionalized dECMs in tissue/organ transplantation and keep researchers up to date on recent progress in dECM usage.

Abstract
Contributing to organ formation and tissue regeneration, extracellular matrix (ECM) constituents provide tissue with three-dimensional (3D) structural integrity and cellular-function regulation. Containing the crucial traits of the cellular microenvironment, ECM substitutes mediate cell-matrix interactions to prompt stem-cell proliferation and differentiation for 3D organoid construction in vitro or tissue regeneration in vivo. However, these ECMs are often applied generically and have yet to be extensively developed for specific cell types in 3D cultures. Cultured cells also produce rich ECM, particularly stromal cells. Cellular ECM improves 3D culture development in vitro and tissue remodeling during wound healing after implantation into the host as well. Gaining better insight into ECM derived from either tissue or cells that regulate 3D tissue reconstruction or organ regeneration helps us to select, produce, and implant the most suitable ECM and thus promote 3D organoid culture and tissue remodeling for in vivo regeneration. Overall, the decellularization methodologies and tissue/cell-derived ECM as scaffolds or cellular-growth supplements used in cell propagation and differentiation for 3D tissue culture in vitro are discussed. Moreover, current preclinical applications by which ECM components modulate the wound-healing process are reviewed.

Melatonin attenuates radiation-induced cortical bone-derived stem cells injury and enhances bone repair in postradiation femoral defect model. Mil Med Res 2021; 8:61. [PMID: 34895335 PMCID: PMC8666036 DOI: 10.1186/s40779-021-00355-y] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/12/2021] [Accepted: 11/11/2021] [Indexed: 02/06/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND The healing of bone defects can be challenging for clinicians to manage, especially after exposure to ionizing radiation. In this regard, radiation therapy and accidental exposure to gamma (γ)-ray radiation have been shown to inhibit bone formation and increase the risk of fractures. Cortical bone-derived stem cells (CBSCs) are reportedly essential for osteogenic lineages, bone maintenance and repair. This study aimed to investigate the effects of melatonin on postradiation CBSCs and bone defect healing. METHODS CBSCs were extracted from C57BL/6 mice and were identified by flow cytometry. Then CBSCs were subjected to 6 Gy γ-ray radiation followed by treatment with various concentrations of melatonin. The effects of exogenous melatonin on the self-renewal and osteogenic capacity of postradiation CBSCs in vitro were analyzed. The underlying mechanisms involved in genomic stability, apoptosis and oxidative stress-related signaling were further analyzed by Western blotting, flow cytometry and immunofluorescence assays. Moreover, postradiation femoral defect models were established and treated with Matrigel and melatonin. The effects of melatonin on postradiation bone healing in vivo were evaluated by micro-CT and pathological analysis. RESULTS The decrease in radiation-induced self-renewal and osteogenic capacity were partially reversed in postradiation CBSCs treated with melatonin (P < 0.05). Melatonin maintained genomic stability, reduced postradiation CBSC apoptosis and intracellular oxidative stress, and enhanced expression of antioxidant-related enzymes (P < 0.05). Western blotting validated the anti-inflammatory effects of melatonin by downregulating interleukin-6 (IL-6) and tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α) levels via the extracellular regulated kinase (ERK)/nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (NRF2)/heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) signaling pathway. Melatonin was also found to exhibit antioxidant effects via NRF2 signaling. In vivo experiments demonstrated that the newly formed bone in the melatonin plus Matrigel group had higher trabecular bone volume per tissue volume (BV/TV) and bone mineral density values with lower IL-6 and TNF-α levels than in the irradiation and the Matrigel groups (P < 0.05). CONCLUSION This study suggested that melatonin could protect CBSCs against γ-ray radiation and assist in the healing of postradiation bone defects.

Abstract
Collagen is essential for cartilage adhesion and formation. In the present study, histology, immunofluorescence, morphometry, and qRT-PCR suggested that adipose-derived stem cells (ADSCs) stimulated by type V collagen (Col V) induce a significant increase of type II collagen (Col II) in the degenerative area of surgical-induced osteoarthritic rabbit articular cartilage (OA). In vitro, the effects of Col V on the proliferation and differentiation of ADSC were investigated. The expression of the cartilage-related genes Col2a1 and Acan was significantly upregulated and Pou5fl was downregulated post-ADSC/Col V treatment. Post-ADSC/Col V treatment, in vivo analyses revealed that rabbits showed typical signs of osteoarthritic articular cartilage regeneration by hematoxylin and eosin (H&E) and Safranin O/Fast Green staining. Immunohistochemical staining demonstrated that the volume of Col II fibers and the expression of Col II protein were significantly increased, and apoptosis Fas ligand positive significantly decreased post-ADSC/Col V treatment. In conclusion, the expression of Col II was higher in rabbits with surgical-induced osteoarthritic articular cartilage; hence, ADSC/Col V may be a promising therapeutic target for OA treatment.

Abstract
Spermatogonial stem cells (SSCs) are essential to the initiation of spermatogenesis. Cryopreservation, long-term maintenance, and auto-transplantation of SSCs could be a new treatment for infertility. The aim of this study was to add melatonin to the basic freezing medium and to evaluate its effect on the efficiency of the thawed SSCs after transplantation into the testicles of azoospermic mice. SSCs were isolated from newborn NMRI mice, and the cells were enriched to assess morphological features. The thawed SSCs were evaluated for survival, apoptosis, and ROS level before transplantation, and the proliferation (MVH and ID4) and differentiation (c-Kit, SCP3, TP1, TP2, and Prm1) markers of SSCs were examined using immunofluorescence, western blot, and quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR) after transplantation. It was found that the survival rate of SSCs after thawing was significantly higher in the melatonin group compared with the cryopreservation group containing basic freezing medium, and the rate of apoptosis and level of ROS production also decreased significantly in the cryopreservation group with melatonin (p < 0.05). The expression of proliferation and differentiation markers after transplantation was significantly higher in the cryopreservation group with melatonin compared to the cryopreservation group (p < 0.05). The results suggest that adding melatonin to the basic freezing medium can effectively protect the SSCs by increasing the viability and reducing the ROS production and apoptosis and improve the transplantation efficiency of SSCs after cryopreservation, which will provide a significant suggestion for fertility protection in the clinic.

Abstract
Mesenchymal stem cell-derived extracellular matrix (mECM) has received increased attention in the fields of tissue engineering and scaffold-assisted regeneration. mECM exhibits many unique characteristics, such as robust bioactivity, biocompatibility, ease of use, and the potential for autologous tissue engineering. As the use of mECM has increased in musculoskeletal tissue engineering, it should be noted that mECM generated from current methods has inherited insufficiencies, such as low mechanical properties and lack of internal architecture. In this review, we first summarize the development and use of mECM as a scaffold for musculoskeletal tissue regeneration and highlight our current progress on moving this technology toward clinical application. Then we review recent methods to improve the properties of mECM that will overcome current weaknesses. Lastly, we propose future studies that will pave the road for mECM application in regenerating tissues in humans.

Abstract
Autologous chondrocyte implantation (ACI) is a promising approach to repair cartilage defects; however, the cartilage trauma-induced inflammatory environment compromises its clinical outcomes. Cell-derived decellularized extracellular matrix (DECM) has been used as a culture substrate for mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) to improve the cell proliferation and lineage-specific differentiation. In this study, DECM deposited by synovium-derived MSCs was used as an in vitro expansion system for rabbit articular chondrocytes and the response of DECM-expanded chondrocytes to pro-inflammatory cytokines such as interleukin-1β (IL-1β) and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) was evaluated. Compared with those grown on tissue culture polystyrene (TCPS), the proliferation rate was significantly improved in DECM-expanded chondrocytes. TCPS- and DECM-expanded chondrocytes were isolated and induced to redifferentiation in a high-density pellet culture. DECM-expanded chondrocytes exerted a stronger resistance to 1 ng/mL of IL-1β than TCPS-expanded cells, but the production of cartilage matrix in both groups was inhibited by 5 ng/mL of IL-1β. When exposed to 1 or 5 ng/mL of TNF-α, DECM-expanded chondrocytes showed higher levels of cartilage matrix synthesis than TCPS-expanded cells. In addition, the gene expression of IL-1β- or TNF-α-induced matrix degrading enzymes (MMP3, MMP9, MMP13, and ADAMTS5) was significantly lower in DECM-expanded chondrocytes than TCPS-expanded cells. Furthermore, we found that SIRT1 inhibition by nicotinamide completely counteracted the protective effect of DECM on chondrocytes in the presence of IL-1β or TNF-α, indicating that the SIRT1 signaling pathway was involved in the DECM-mediated enhancement of anti-inflammatory properties of chondrocytes. Taken together, this work suggests that stem cell-derived DECM is a superior culture substrate for in vitro chondrocyte expansion by improving proliferation and enhancing the anti-inflammatory properties of chondrocytes. DECM-expanded chondrocytes with enhanced anti-inflammatory properties hold great potential in clinically ACI-based cartilage repair.

Abstract
Postmenopausal osteoporosis (OP) is one of the most common bone diseases that affects millions of aging women. Reduced osteogenesis and increased oxidative stress have been implicated in bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMMSCs) derived from OP patients. Melatonin has shown positive effects on osteoblast differentiation and bone formation; however, it was unknown whether melatonin could restore OP-impaired osteogenic potential of BMMSCs and what the underlying mechanisms entailed. The objective of this study is to investigate (1) whether melatonin can restore the impaired osteogenic potential of OP BMMSCs by preserving their antioxidant functions, and if so, (2) whether intravenous administration of melatonin can prevent OP-induced bone loss in ovariectomized (OVX) rats. Ovariectomies were performed in female rats and BMMSCs were isolated from the osteoporotic rats 3 months later. In vitro treatment with melatonin successfully improved the osteogenic differentiation of OP BMMSCs, as evidenced by increased levels of matrix mineralization and osteoblast-specific genes. In melatonin-treated OP BMMSCs, intracellular oxidative stress was significantly attenuated, while levels of intracellular antioxidant enzymes were noticeably up-regulated - particularly superoxide dismutase 2 (SOD2) and glutathione peroxidase 1 (GPX1). Silent information regulator type 1 (SIRT1) was involved in the melatonin-mediated recovery of osteogenesis and antioxidant functions. Meanwhile, in vivo injections of melatonin via the tail vein successfully ameliorated the bone micro-architecture in ovariectomized rat femurs. Further experiments confirmed that BMMSCs derived from melatonin-treated OVX rats exerted well-preserved antioxidant properties and osteogenic potential. Our findings demonstrate that the administration of melatonin is a promising strategy for treating patients with postmenopausal OP by preserving the antioxidant properties and osteogenic potential of their BMMSCs.

Abstract
Background Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) play a crucial role in maintaining the dynamic balance of bone metabolism. Melatonin may have a regulatory effect on bone metabolism by regulating the lineage commitment and differentiation signalling pathways of MSCs. Among the BMP families, the osteogenesis of BMP9 is considered to be one of the strongest in MSCs. Here, we explored whether melatonin and BMP9 act synergistically on MSC osteogenic differentiation. Methods The C3H10T1/2 osteogenic differentiation function induced by melatonin synergizes with BMP9, as detected by the expression of osteogenic markers at different periods. The result was further confirmed by foetal limb explant culture and in vivo stem cell implantation experiments. The effects of the AMPK/β-catenin pathway on the osteogenic differentiation of C3H10T1/2 cells were evaluated by Western blotting. Results Melatonin combined with BMP9 significantly enhanced the expression of osteogenic markers at different periods in C3H10T1/2 cells, effectively enhancing BMP9-induced bone formation in cultured foetal explants and ectopic bone formation in vivo in stem cell transplantation experiments. Melatonin increases the expression of BMP9 in C3H10T1/2 cells and induces Smad1/5/8 translocation from the cytoplasm to the nucleus. In addition, melatonin and BMP9 synergistically promote AMPK and β-catenin phosphorylation, which can be largely eliminated by AMPK siRNA pretreatment. Conclusions Melatonin and BMP9 in C3H10T1/2 cells synergistically promote osteogenic differentiation at least in part by activating the AMPK/β-catenin signalling pathway.

Abstract
Melatonin's therapeutic potential has been highly underestimated because its biological functional roles are diverse and relevant mechanisms are complicated. Among the numerous biological activities of melatonin, its regulatory effects on pluripotent mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs), which are found in bone marrow stem cells (BMSCs) and adipose tissue (AD-MSC), have been recently proposed, which has received increasingly more attention in recent studies. Moreover, receptor-dependent and receptor-independent responses to melatonin are identified to occur in these cells by regulating signaling pathways, which drive the commitment and differentiation of MSCs into osteogenic, chondrogenic, or adipogenic lineages. Therefore, the aim of our current review is to summarize the evidence related to the utility of melatonin as a regulatory agent by focusing on its relationship with the differentiation of MSCs. In particular, we aimed to review its roles in promoting osteogenic and chondrogenic differentiation and the relevant signaling cascades involved. Also, the roles that melatonin and, particularly, its receptors play in these processes are highlighted.

Abstract
Increasing evidence indicates that decellularized extracellular matrices (dECMs) derived from cartilage tissues (T-dECMs) or chondrocytes/stem cells (C-dECMs) can support proliferation and chondrogenic differentiation of cartilage-forming cells. However, few review papers compare the differences between these dECMs when they serve as substrates for cartilage regeneration. In this review, after an introduction of cartilage immunogenicity and decellularization methods to prepare T-dECMs and C-dECMs, a comprehensive comparison focuses on the effects of T-dECMs and C-dECMs on proliferation and chondrogenic differentiation of chondrocytes/stem cells in vitro and in vivo. Key factors within dECMs, consisting of microarchitecture characteristics and micromechanical properties as well as retained insoluble and soluble matrix components, are discussed in-depth for potential mechanisms underlying the functionality of these dECMs in regulating chondrogenesis. With this information, we hope to benefit dECM based cartilage engineering and tissue regeneration for future clinical application. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE The use of decellularized extracellular matrix (dECM) is becoming a promising approach for tissue engineering and regeneration. Compared to dECM derived from cartilage tissue, recently reported dECM from cell sources exhibits a distinct role in cell based cartilage regeneration. In this review paper, for the first time, tissue and cell based dECMs are comprehensively compared for their functionality in cartilage regeneration. This information is expected to provide an update for dECM based cartilage regeneration.

Abstract
Decellularized extracellular matrix (ECM) derived from stem cells has been shown as a promising biomaterial for bone regeneration because of the promotion effect on osteogenesis in mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs). However, bone regeneration is also influenced by bone resorption and little is known about the effect of cell-derived ECM on osteoclast differentiation. In this study, ECM was deposited by MSCs and, after decellularization, the effect of ECM on osteoclastogenesis of bone marrow monocytes (BMMs) was investigated in comparison to standard tissue culture polystyrene. Our results showed that cell-derived ECM improved BMM proliferation but potently inhibited osteoclast differentiation, evidenced by down-regulation of multinucleated tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP)-positive cells, areas of actin rings, and osteoclast-specific gene expression. ECM-mediated attenuation of intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) was suggested to play a rival role in the inhibition of osteoclastogenesis, because exogenous hydrogen peroxide supplementation partially rescued the ECM-inhibited osteoclastogenesis. Furthermore, rather than collagen type I, fibronectin in the ECM contributed to ECM-mediated anti-osteoclastogenesis. In conclusion, stem cell-derived decellularized ECM significantly suppressed osteoclastogenesis via the attenuation of intracellular ROS. The anti-osteoclastogenic property of cell-derived ECM may benefit its clinical use for modulating bone remodeling and promoting bone tissue engineering.

Abstract
Melatonin has been reported to be an important endogenous hormone for regulating neurogenesis, immunityand the biological clock. Recently, the effects of melatonin on neural stem cells (NSCs), mesenchymal stem cells(MSCs), and induced pluripotent stem cells(iPSCs) have been reported; however, the effects of melatonin on spermatogonia stem cells (SSCs) are not clear. Here, 1μM and 1nM melatonin was added to medium when goat SSCs were cultured in vitro, the results showed that melatonin could increase the formation and size of SSC colonies. Real-time quantitative PCR (QRT-PCR) and western blot analysis showed that the expression levels of SSC proliferation and self-renewal markers were up-regulated. Meanwhile, QRT-PCR results showed that melatonin inhibit the mRNA expression level of SSC differentiation markers. ELISA analysis showed an obvious increase in the concentration of GDNF (a niche factor secreted by Sertoli cells) in the medium when treated with melatonin. Meanwhile, the phosphorylation level of AKT, a downstream of GDNF-GFRa1-RET pathway was activated. In conclusion, melatonin promotes goat SSC proliferation by stimulating GDNF production in Sertoli cells.

Abstract
AIMS Many men endure immunosuppressive or anticancer treatments that contain alkylating agents before the age of sexual maturity, especially the increasing number of preadolescent males who undergo busulfan treatment for myeloablative conditioning before hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. Before sperm production, there are no sperm available for cryopreservation. Thus, it is necessary to identify a solution to ameliorate the busulfan-induced damage of spermatogonial stem cells (SSCs). RESULTS In this study, we demonstrated that melatonin relieved the previously described SSC loss and apoptosis in mouse testes. Melatonin increased the expression of manganese superoxide dismutase (MnSOD), which regulated the production of busulfan-induced reactive oxygen species (ROS). Moreover, melatonin promoted sirtuin type 1 (SIRT1) expression. SIRT1 participated in the deacetylation of p53, which promotes p53 ubiquitin degradation. Decreased concentrations of deacetylated p53 resulted in spermatogonial cell resistance to apoptosis. Acute T cell leukemia cell assay demonstrated that melatonin does not affect busulfan-induced cancer cell apoptosis and ROS. INNOVATION The current evidence suggests that melatonin may alleviate the side effects of alkylating drugs, such as busulfan. CONCLUSION Melatonin promoted MnSOD and SIRT1 expression, which successfully ameliorated busulfan-induced SSC apoptosis caused by high concentrations of ROS and p53. Antioxid. Redox Signal. 28, 385-400.

Abstract
Human umbilical cord-derived mesenchymal stem cells (UC-MSCs) are considered an attractive cell source for tissue regeneration. However, environmental oxidative stress can trigger premature senescence in MSCs and thus compromises their regenerative potential. Extracellular matrix (ECM) derived from MSCs has been shown to facilitate cell proliferation and multi-lineage differentiation. This investigation evaluated the effect of cell-deposited decellularized ECM (DECM) on oxidative stress-induced premature senescence in UC-MSCs. Sublethal dosages of H2 O2 , ranging from 50 μm to 200 μm, were used to induce senescence in MSCs. We found that DECM protected UC-MSCs from oxidative stress-induced premature senescence. When treated with H2 O2 at the same concentration, cell proliferation of DECM-cultured UC-MSCs was twofold higher than those on standard tissue culture polystyrene (TCPS). After exposure to 100 μm H2 O2 , fewer senescence-associated β-galactosidase-positive cells were observed on DECM than those on TCPS (17.6 ± 4.0% vs. 60.4 ± 6.2%). UC-MSCs cultured on DECM also showed significantly lower levels of senescence-related regulators, such as p16INK4α and p21. Most importantly, DECM preserved the osteogenic differentiation potential of UC-MSCs with premature senescence. The underlying molecular mechanisms involved the silent information regulator type 1 (SIRT1)-dependent signalling pathway, confirmed by the fact that the SIRT1 inhibitor nicotinamide counteracted the DECM-mediated anti-senescent effect. Collagen type I, rather than fibronectin, partially contributed to the protective effect of decellularized matrix. These findings provide a new strategy of using stem cell-deposited matrix to overcome the challenge of cellular senescence and to facilitate the clinical application of MSCs in regenerative medicine.

Abstract
UNLABELLED Osteoporosis is linked to age-related decline of melatonin production; however, the direct effects of melatonin on osteoclastogenesis remain unknown. Our study demonstrates that melatonin at pharmacological concentrations, rather than at physiological concentrations, significantly inhibits osteoclastogenesis. Melatonin-mediated anti-osteoclastogenesis involves a reactive oxygen species (ROS)-mediated but not a silent information regulator type 1 (SIRT1)-independent pathway. INTRODUCTION Osteoporosis is a bone disorder linked to impaired bone formation and excessive bone resorption. Melatonin has been suggested to treat osteoporosis due to its beneficial actions on osteoblast differentiation. However, the direct effects of melatonin on osteoclastogenesis in bone marrow monocytes (BMMs) remain unknown. This study was to investigate whether melatonin at either physiological or pharmacological concentrations could affect osteoclast differentiation. METHODS Primary BMMs were isolated from the femurs and tibias of C57BL/6 mice and were induced toward multinucleated osteoclasts, in the presence of melatonin at either physiological (0.01 to 10 nM) or pharmacological (1 to 100 μM) concentrations. Tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP) staining was used to label multinucleated osteoclasts and the levels of osteoclast-specific genes were evaluated. To further explore the underlying mechanisms, the roles of silent information regulator type 1 (SIRT1) and reactive oxygen species (ROS) were evaluated. RESULTS We found that melatonin at pharmacological concentrations, rather than at physiological concentrations, significantly inhibited osteoclast formation in a dose-dependent manner. The number of TRAP-positive cells and the gene expression of osteoclast-specific markers were significantly downregulated in melatonin-treated BMMs. The melatonin-mediated repression of osteoclast differentiation involved the inhibition of the nuclear factor κ-light-chain-enhancer of activated B cells (NF-κB) signaling pathway. The treatment with SIRT1 inhibitors did not affect osteoclast differentiation but, when supplemented with exogenous hydrogen peroxide, a partial rescue of melatonin-suppressed osteoclastogenesis was observed. CONCLUSION Melatonin at pharmacological doses directly inhibited osteoclastogenesis of BMMs by a ROS-mediated but not a SIRT1-independent pathway.

Abstract
Extended in vitro culture of human embryos beyond blastocyst stage could serve as a tool to explore the molecular and physiological mechanisms underlying embryo development and to identify factors regulating pregnancy outcomes. This study presents the first report on the maintenance of human embryo in vitro by alginate co-encapsulation of human blastocyst and decidualized endometrial stromal cells (EnSCs) under melatonin-fortified culture conditions. The effectiveness of the 3D culture system was studied through monitoring of embryo development in terms of survival time, viability, morphological changes, and production of the two hormones of 17b-oestradiol and human chorionic gonadotropin. The embryo structural integrity was preserved during alginate encapsulation; however, only 23 % of the encapsulated embryos could retain in the hydrogels over time and survived until day 4 post-encapsulation. The culture medium fortification with melatonin significantly elevated the maintenance rate of expanded embryos in alginate beads by 65 % and prolonged survival time of human embryos to day 5. Furthermore, embryo co-culture with EnSCs using melatonin-fortified medium increased the survival time of encapsulated embryos to 44 %. The levels of two measured hormones significantly rose at day 4 in comparison with day 2 post-encapsulation especially in the group co-encapsulated with EnSCs and cultivated in melatonin-fortified culture medium. These data are the first evidence representing in vitro development of human embryos until day 10 post-fertilization. This achievement can facilitate the investigation of the mechanisms regulating human embryo development.

Abstract
Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are promising candidates for stem cell-based therapy in ischemic diseases. However, ischemic injury induces pathophysiological conditions, such as oxidative stress and inflammation, which diminish therapeutic efficacy of MSC-based therapy by reducing survival and functionality of transplanted MSCs. To overcome this problem, we explored the effects of melatonin on the proliferation, resistance to oxidative stress, and immunomodulatory properties of MSCs. Treatment with melatonin enhanced MSC proliferation and self-renewal via upregulation of cellular prion protein (PrPC ) expression. Melatonin diminished the extent of MSC apoptosis in oxidative stress conditions by regulating the levels of apoptosis-associated proteins, such as BCL-2, BAX, PARP-1, and caspase-3, in a PrPC -dependent manner. In addition, melatonin regulated the immunomodulatory effects of MSCs via the PrPC -IDO axis. In a murine hind-limb ischemia model, melatonin-stimulated MSCs improved the blood flow perfusion, limb salvage, and vessel regeneration by lowering the extent of apoptosis of affected local cells and transplanted MSCs as well as by reducing infiltration of macrophages. These melatonin-mediated therapeutic effects were inhibited by silencing of PrPC expression. Our findings for the first time indicate that melatonin promotes MSC functionality and enhances MSC-mediated neovascularization in ischemic tissues through the upregulation of PrPC expression. In conclusion, melatonin-treated MSCs could provide a therapeutic strategy for vessel regeneration in ischemic disease, and the targeting of PrPC levels may prove instrumental for MSC-based therapies.

Abstract
Each cell forever interacts with its extracellular matrix (ECM); a stem cell relies on this interaction to guide differentiation. The stiffness, nanotopography, protein composition, stress and strain inherent to any given ECM influences stem cell lineage commitment. This interaction is dynamic, multidimensional and reciprocally evolving through time, and from this concerted exchange the macroscopic tissues that comprise living organisms are formed. Mesenchymal stem cells can give rise to bone, cartilage, tendon and muscle; thus attempts to manipulate their differentiation must heed the physical properties of incredibly complex native microenvironments to realize regenerative goals.

Abstract
Human umbilical cord-derived mesenchymal stem cells (UC-MSCs) have attracted great interest in clinical application because of their regenerative potential and their lack of ethical issues. Our previous studies showed that decellularized cell-deposited extracellular matrix (ECM) provided an in vivo-mimicking microenvironment for MSCs and facilitated in vitro cell expansion. This study was conducted to analyze the cellular response of UC-MSCs when culturing on the ECM, including reactive oxygen species (ROS), intracellular antioxidative enzymes, and the resistance to exogenous oxidative stress. After decellularization, the architecture of cell-deposited ECM was characterized as nanofibrous, collagen fibrils and the matrix components were identified as type I and III collagens, fibronectin, and laminin. Compared to tissue culture polystyrene (TCPS) plates, culturing on ECM yielded a 2-fold increase of UC-MSC proliferation and improved the percentage of cells in the S phase by 2.4-fold. The levels of intracellular ROS and hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) in ECM-cultured cells were reduced by 41.7% and 82.9%, respectively. More importantly, ECM-cultured UC-MSCs showed enhanced expression and activity of intracellular antioxidative enzymes such as superoxide dismutase and catalase, up-regulated expression of silent information regulator type 1, and suppressed phosphorylation of p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase. Furthermore, a continuous treatment with exogenous 100μM H2O2 dramatically inhibited osteogenic differentiation of UC-MSCs cultured on TCPS, but culturing on ECM retained the differentiation capacity for matrix mineralization and osteoblast-specific marker gene expression. Collectively, by providing sufficient cell amounts and enhancing antioxidant capacity, decellularized ECM can be a promising cell culture platform for in vitro expansion of UC-MSCs.

Abstract
Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) represent an attractive source for stem cell-based regenerative therapy, but they are vulnerable to oxidative stress-induced premature senescence in pathological conditions. We previously reported antioxidant and antiarthritic effects of melatonin on MSCs against proinflammatory cytokines. In this study, we hypothesized that melatonin could protect MSCs from premature senescence induced by hydrogen peroxide (H2 O2 ) via the silent information regulator type 1 (SIRT1)-dependent pathway. In response to H2 O2 at a sublethal concentration of 200 μm, human bone marrow-derived MSCs (BM-MSCs) underwent growth arrest and cellular senescence. Treatment with melatonin before H2 O2 exposure cannot significantly prevent premature senescence; however, treatment with melatonin subsequent to H2 O2 exposure successfully reversed the senescent phenotypes of BM-MSCs in a dose-dependent manner. This result was made evident by improved cell proliferation, decreased senescence-associated β-galactosidase activity, and the improved entry of proliferating cells into the S phase. In addition, treatment with 100 μm melatonin restored the osteogenic differentiation potential of BM-MSCs that was inhibited by H2 O2 -induced premature senescence. We also found that melatonin attenuated the H2 O2 -stimulated phosphorylation of p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase, decreased expression of the senescence-associated protein p16(INK) (4α) , and increased SIRT1. Further molecular experiments revealed that luzindole, a nonselective antagonist of melatonin receptors, blocked melatonin-mediated antisenescence effects. Inhibition of SIRT1 by sirtinol counteracted the protective effects of melatonin, suggesting that melatonin reversed the senescence in cells through the SIRT1-dependent pathway. Together, these findings lay new ground for understanding oxidative stress-induced premature senescence and open perspectives for therapeutic applications of melatonin in stem cell-based regenerative medicine.

Acoustic-frequency vibratory stimulation regulates the balance between osteogenesis and adipogenesis of human bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells. BIOMED RESEARCH INTERNATIONAL 2015; 2015:540731. [PMID: 25738155 PMCID: PMC4337172 DOI: 10.1155/2015/540731] [Citation(s) in RCA: 12] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/11/2014] [Accepted: 01/19/2015] [Indexed: 12/13/2022]
Abstract
Osteoporosis can be associated with the disordered balance between osteogenesis and adipogenesis of bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (BM-MSCs). Although low-frequency mechanical vibration has been demonstrated to promote osteogenesis, little is known about the influence of acoustic-frequency vibratory stimulation (AFVS). BM-MSCs were subjected to AFVS at frequencies of 0, 30, 400, and 800 Hz and induced toward osteogenic or adipogenic-specific lineage. Extracellular matrix mineralization was determined by Alizarin Red S staining and lipid accumulation was assessed by Oil Red O staining. Transcript levels of osteogenic and adipogenic marker genes were evaluated by real-time reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction. Cell proliferation of BM-MSCs was promoted following exposure to AFVS at 800 Hz. Vibration at 800 Hz induced the highest level of calcium deposition and significantly increased mRNA expression of COL1A1, ALP, RUNX2, and SPP1. The 800 Hz group downregulated lipid accumulation and levels of adipogenic genes, including FABP4, CEBPA, PPARG, and LEP, while vibration at 30 Hz supported adipogenesis. BM-MSCs showed a frequency-dependent response to acoustic vibration. AFVS at 800 Hz was the most favorable for osteogenic differentiation and simultaneously suppressed adipogenesis. Thus, acoustic vibration could potentially become a novel means to prevent and treat osteoporosis.
