[PMID: 38913224 PMCID: PMC11286614 DOI: 10.1007/s13770-024-00643-3] [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: 01/02/2024] [Revised: 03/18/2024] [Accepted: 03/20/2024] [Indexed: 06/25/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Skin alterations are among the most prominent signs of aging, and they arise from both intrinsic and extrinsic factors that interact and mutually influence one another. The use of D-galactose as an aging model in animals has been widely employed in anti-aging research. Adipose tissue-derived mesenchymal stem cells (Ad-MSCs) are particularly promising for skin anti-aging therapy due to their capacity for effective re-epithelization and secretion of various growth factors essential for skin regeneration. Accordingly, we aimed to examine the potential utility of Ad-MSCs as a therapy for skin anti-aging. METHODS In this study, we isolated and characterized adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells (Ad-MSCs) from the epididymal fat of male Sprague Dawley rats. We assessed the in vitro differentiation of Ad-MSCs into epidermal progenitor cells (EPCs) using ascorbic acid and hydrocoritsone. Additionally, we induced skin aging in female Sprague Dawley rats via daily intradermal injection of D-galactose over a period of 8 weeks. Then we evaluated the therapeutic potential of intradermal transplantation of Ad-MSCs and conditioned media (CM) derived from differentiated EPCs in the D-galactose-induced aging rats. Morphological assessments, antioxidant assays, and histopathological examinations were performed to investigate the effects of the treatments. RESULTS Our findings revealed the significant capability of Ad-MSCs to differentiate into EPCs. Notably, compared to the group that received CM treatment, the Ad-MSCs-treated group exhibited a marked improvement in morphological appearance, antioxidant levels and histological features. CONCLUSIONS These results underscore the effectiveness of Ad-MSCs in restoring skin aging as a potential therapy for skin aging.

Isolation of the Stromal Vascular Fraction Using a New Protocol with All Clinical-Grade Drugs: From Basic Study to Clinical Application. Aesthetic Plast Surg 2024:10.1007/s00266-024-04221-9. [PMID: 38987318 DOI: 10.1007/s00266-024-04221-9] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/16/2024] [Accepted: 06/21/2024] [Indexed: 07/12/2024]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE The purpose of this study was to evaluate the yield, viability, clinical safety, and efficacy of the stromal vascular fraction (SVF) separated with a new protocol with all clinical-grade drugs. MATERIALS AND METHODS SVF cells were isolated from lipoaspirate obtained from 13 participants aged from 30 to 56 years by using a new clinical protocol and the laboratory protocol. The cell yield, viability, morphology, mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) surface marker expression, and differentiation abilities of the SVF cells harvested from the two protocols were compared. Furthermore, three related clinical trials were conducted to verify the safety and efficiency of SVF cells isolated by the new clinical protocol. RESULTS There were no significant differences in the yield, viability, morphology, and differentiation potential of the SVFs isolated with the clinical protocol and laboratory protocol. Adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cell (ASC) surface marker expression, including that of CD14, CD31, CD44, CD90, CD105, and CD133, was consistent between the two protocols. Clinical trials have demonstrated the effectiveness of the SVF isolated with the new clinical protocol in improving skin grafting, promoting mechanical stretch-induced skin regeneration and improving facial skin texture. No complications occurred. CONCLUSION SVF isolated by the new clinical protocol had a noninferior yield and viability to that of the SVF separated by the laboratory protocol. SVFs obtained by the new protocol can be safely and effectively applied to improve skin grafting, promote mechanical stretch-induced skin regeneration, and improve facial skin texture. TRIAL REGISTRATION The trials were registered with the ClinicalTrials.gov (NCT03189628), the Chinese Clinical Trial Registry (ChiCTR2000039317), and the ClinicalTrials.gov (NCT02546882). All the three trials were not patient-funded trials.

[PMID: 37898292 DOI: 10.1016/j.labinv.2023.100268] [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: 04/06/2023] [Revised: 10/07/2023] [Accepted: 10/19/2023] [Indexed: 10/30/2023] Open
Abstract
Skin aging is characterized by wrinkle formation and increased frailty and laxity, leading to the risk of age-related skin diseases. Keratinocyte is an important component of the epidermis in skin structure, and keratinocyte senescence has been identified as a pivotal factor in skin aging development. Because epigenetic pathways play a vital role in the regulation of skin aging, we evaluated human skin samples for DNA hydroxymethylation (5-hydroxymethylcytosine; 5-hmC) and SIRT4 expressions. Results found that both 5-hmC and SIRT4 showed a significant decrease in aged human skin samples. To test the results in vitro, human keratinocytes were cultured in H2O2, which modulates skin aging in vivo. However, H2O2-induced keratinocytes showed senescence-associated protein expression and significant downregulation of 5-hmC and SIRT4 expressions. Moreover, 5-hmC-converting enzymes ten eleven translocation 2 (TET2) showed a decrease and enhanced TET2 acetylation level in H2O2-induced keratinocytes. However, the overexpression of SIRT4 in keratinocytes alleviates the senescence phenotype, such as senescence-associated protein expression, decreases the TET2 acetylation, but increases TET2 and 5-hmC expressions. Our results provide a novel relevant mechanism whereby the epigenetic regulation of keratinocytes in skin aging may be correlated with SIRT4 expression and TET2 acetylation in 5-hmC alteration. Our study may provide a potential strategy for antiskin aging, which targets the SIRT4/TET2 axis involving epigenetic modification in keratinocyte senescence.

Abstract
The improvement of human living conditions has led to an increase in average life expectancy, creating a new social and medical problem-aging, which diminishes the overall quality of human life. The aging process of the body begins with the activation of effector signaling pathways of aging in cells, resulting in the loss of their normal functions and deleterious effects on the microenvironment. This, in turn, leads to chronic inflammation and similar transformations in neighboring cells. The cumulative retention of these senescent cells over a prolonged period results in the deterioration of tissues and organs, ultimately leading to a reduced quality of life and an elevated risk of mortality. Among the most promising methods for addressing aging and age-related illnesses are pharmacological, genetic, and cellular therapies. Elevating the activity of aging-suppressing genes, employing specific groups of native and genetically modified cells, and utilizing senolytic medications may offer the potential to delay aging and age-related ailments over the long term. This review explores strategies and advancements in the field of anti-aging therapies currently under investigation, with a particular emphasis on gene therapy involving adeno-associated vectors and cell-based therapeutic approaches.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Studies have reported promising results of mesenchymal stem cell therapies for skin aging. However, in the use of mesenchymal stem cells, some drawbacks including rarely possible tumorigenicity and low engraftment rates have limited their widespread clinical use. Adipose tissue stem cell-derived exosomes (ASCEs) are emerging as effective cell-free therapeutic agents. AIMS It was evaluated the clinical efficacy of combining the application of human ASCE-containing solution (HACS) with microneedling to treat facial skin aging. METHODS A 12-week, prospective, randomized, split-face, comparative study was conducted. Twenty-eight individuals underwent three treatment sessions separated by 3-week intervals and were followed up for 6 weeks after the last session. At each treatment session, HACS and microneedling were administered to one side of the face, and normal saline solution and microneedling were administered to the other side as a control. RESULTS The Global Aesthetic Improvement Scale score was significantly higher on the HACS-treated side than on the control side at the final follow-up visit (p = 0.005). Objective measurements obtained by different devices including PRIMOS Premium, Cutometer MPA 580, Corneometer CM 825, and Mark-Vu confirmed greater clinical improvements in skin wrinkles, elasticity, hydration, and pigmentation on the HACS-treated side than on the control side. The results of the histopathological evaluation were consistent with the clinical findings. No serious adverse events were observed. CONCLUSIONS These findings demonstrate that combined treatment using HACS and microneedling is effective and safe for treating facial skin aging.

Abstract
ADSCs are a large number of mesenchymal stem cells in Adipose tissue, which can be applied to tissue engineering. ADSCs have the potential of multi-directional differentiation, and can differentiate into bone tissue, cardiac tissue, urothelial cells, skin tissue, etc. Compared with other mesenchymal stem cells, ADSCs have a multitude of promising advantages, such as abundant number, accessibility in cell culture, stable function, and less immune rejection. There are two main methods to use ADSCs for tissue repair and regeneration. One is to implant the "ADSCs-scaffold composite" into the injured site to promote tissue regeneration. The other is cell-free therapy: using ADSC-exos or ADSC-CM alone to release a large number of miRNAs, cytokines and other bioactive substances to promote tissue regeneration. The tissue regeneration potential of ADSCs is regulated by a variety of cytokines, signaling molecules, and external environment. The differentiation of ADSCs into different tissues is also induced by growth factors, ions, hormones, scaffold materials, physical stimulation, and other factors. The specific mechanisms are complex, and most of the signaling pathways need to be further explored. This article reviews and summarizes the mechanism and clinical application of ADSCs in tissue injury repair so far, and puts forward further problems that need to be solved in this field, hoping to provide directions for further research in this field.

Human umbilical cord-derived mesenchymal stem cells (hUC-MSCs) alleviate excessive autophagy of ovarian granular cells through VEGFA/PI3K/AKT/mTOR pathway in premature ovarian failure rat model. J Ovarian Res 2023; 16:198. [PMID: 37777781 PMCID: PMC10542694 DOI: 10.1186/s13048-023-01278-z] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/11/2023] [Accepted: 09/12/2023] [Indexed: 10/02/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Premature ovarian failure (POF) is one of the leading causes of female infertility and is accompanied by abnormal endocrine, seriously affecting female quality of life. Previous studies have demonstrated that mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) transplantation is a promising therapeutic strategy for POF. However, the mechanism remains obscure. This study aims to investigate the therapeutic effect of human umbilical cord-derived mesenchymal stem cells (hUC-MSCs) on ovarian function in the POF rat model and explore the underlying mechanisms. METHODS The ovarian function was evaluated by ovarian morphology, histology, estrous cycle, hormone levels (AMH, E2, FSH, and LH), and fertility ability to investigate the effect of hUC-MSCs on the POF rats model. The cytokines levels were assayed in serum using protein array to explore the mechanisms of hUC-MSCs therapy for POF. The excessive autophagy levels were evaluated using a co-culture system of 3D MSCs spheroids with human ovarian granulosa cell line (KGN) or primary ovarian granulosa cells (GCs) to understand the paracrine effect of hUC-MSCs on GCs. The related proteins expression of autophagy and PI3K/AKT/mTOR pathway was detected using Western Blotting and/or in various inhibitors supplement to further demonstrate that vascular endothelial growth factor A (VEGFA) secreted by hUC-MSCs can alleviate excessive autophagy of ovarian GCs via PI3K/AKT/mTOR signaling pathway. The ovarian culture model in vitro was applied to confirm the mechanism. RESULTS The ovarian function of POF and the excessive autophagy of ovarian GCs were restored after hUC-MSCs transplantation. The protein array result demonstrated that VEGF and PI3K/AKT might improve ovarian function. in vitro experiments demonstrated that VEGFA secreted by hUC-MSCs could decrease oxidative stress and inhibit excessive autophagy of ovarian GCs via PI3K/AKT/mTOR pathway. The ovarian culture model results confirmed this mechanism in vitro. CONCLUSION The hUC-MSCs can alleviate excessive autophagy of ovarian GCs via paracrine VEGFA and regulate the PI3K/AKT/mTOR signaling pathway, thereby improving the ovarian function of POF.

Abstract
Aging is accompanied by deterioration in physical condition, and creates high risks of diseases. Stem cell therapy exhibited promising potential in delaying aging. However, the unelucidated therapeutic mechanism limits future clinical application. Herein, to systematically understand the response to stem cell transfusion at the molecular level, we performed quantitative serum proteomic and peptidomics analyses in the 24-month-old aging mice model with or without mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) treatment. As a result, a total of 560 proteins and 2131 endogenous peptides were identified, among which, 6 proteins and 9 endogenous peptides derived from 6 precursor proteins were finally identified as therapeutic biomarkers after MSC transfusion on aging mice both by untargeted label-free quantification and targeted parallel reaction monitoring (PRM) quantification. Amazingly, the biological function of these differential proteins was mainly related to inflammation, which is not only the important hallmark of aging, but also the main cause of inducing aging. The reduction of these inflammatory protein content after MSC treatment further suggests the anti-inflammatory effect of MSC therapy reported elsewhere. Therefore, our study provides new evidence for the anti-inflammatory effect of MSC therapy for anti-aging and offers abundant data to support deeper investigations of the therapeutic mechanism of MSC in delaying aging.

Abstract
Cardiovascular diseases (CVD) and, in particular, atherosclerosis, remain the main cause of death in the world today. Unfortunately, in most cases, CVD therapy begins after the onset of clinical symptoms and is aimed at eliminating them. In this regard, early pathogenetic therapy for CVD remains an urgent problem in modern science and healthcare. Cell therapy, aimed at eliminating tissue damage underlying the pathogenesis of some pathologies, including CVD, by replacing it with various cells, is of the greatest interest. Currently, cell therapy is the most actively developed and potentially the most effective treatment strategy for CVD associated with atherosclerosis. However, this type of therapy has some limitations. In this review, we have tried to summarize the main targets of cell therapy for CVD and atherosclerosis in particular based on the analysis using the PubMed and Scopus databases up to May 2023.

Abstract
Skin ageing is strictly related to chronic inflammation of the derma and the decay of structural proteins of the extracellular matrix. Indeed, it has become common practice to refer to this phenomenon as inflammageing. Biotech innovation is always in search of new active principles that induce a youthful appearance. In this paper, apple-derived nanovesicles (ADNVs) were investigated as novel anti-inflammatory compounds, which are able to alter the extracellular matrix production of dermal fibroblasts. Total RNA sequencing analysis revealed that ADNVs negatively influence the activity of Toll-like Receptor 4 (TLR4), and, thus, downregulate the NF-κB pro-inflammatory pathway. ADNVs also reduce extracellular matrix degradation by increasing collagen synthesis (COL3A1, COL1A2, COL8A1 and COL6A1) and downregulating metalloproteinase production (MMP1, MMP8 and MMP9). Topical applications for skin regeneration were evaluated by the association of ADNVs with hyaluronic-acid-based hydrogel and patches.

Abstract
Stem cell-mediated therapies in combination with biomaterial and growth factor-based approaches in regenerative medicine are rapidly evolving with increasing application beyond the dermatologic field. Adipose-derived stem cells (ADSCs) are the more frequently used adult stem cells due to their abundance and easy access. In the case of volumetric defects, adipose tissue can take the shape of defects, restoring the volume and enhancing the regeneration of receiving tissue. When regenerative purposes prevail on volume restoration, the stromal vascular fraction (SVF) rich in staminal cells, purified mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) or their cell-free derivatives grafting are favoured. The therapeutic efficacy of acellular approaches is explained by the fact that a significant part of the natural propensity of stem cells to repair damaged tissue is ascribable to their secretory activity that combines mitogenic factors, cytokines, chemokines and extracellular matrix components. Therefore, the secretome's ability to modulate multiple targets simultaneously demonstrated preclinical and clinical efficacy in reversing pathological mechanisms of complex conditions such atopic dermatitis (AD), vitiligo, psoriasis, acne and Lichen sclerosus (LS), non-resolving wounds and alopecia. This review analysing both in vivo and in vitro models gives an overview of the clinical relevance of adipose tissue-derivatives such as autologous fat graft, stromal vascular fraction, purified stem cells and secretome for skin disorders application. Finally, we highlighted the major disease-specific limitations and the future perspective in this field.

Abstract
The integrity of skin tissue structure and function plays an important role in maintaining skin rejuvenation. Ultraviolet (UV) radiation is the main environmental factor that causes skin aging through photodamage of the skin tissue. Cryptotanshinone (CTS), an active ingredient mianly derived from the Salvia plants of Lamiaceae, has many pharmacological effects, such as anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and anti-tumor effects. In this study, we showed that CTS could ameliorate the photodamage induced by UV radiation in epidermal keratinocytes (HaCaT) and dermal fibroblasts (HFF-1) when applied to the cells before exposure to the radiation, effectively delaying the aging of the cells. CTS exerted its antiaging effect by reducing the level of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in the cells, attenuating DNA damage, activating the nuclear factor E2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) signaling pathway, and reduced mitochondrial dysfunction as well as inhibiting apoptosis. Further, CTS could promote mitochondrial biosynthesis in skin cells by activating the AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK)/sirtuin-1 (SIRT1)/peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-γ co-activator-1α (PGC-1α) signaling pathway. These findings demonstrated the protective effects of CTS against UV radiation-induced skin photoaging and provided a theoretical and experimental basis for the application of CTS as an anti-photodamage and anti-aging agent for the skin.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Aging is a natural and multi-factorial phenomenon associated with multiple human pathologies. Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) hold great promise in clinical fields of medicine including tissue repair, cardiovascular disease, and brain ischemic injury. The purpose of this study was to explore the roles of MSCs in improving the condition of aging cells, repairing aging tissues and organs, and extending the life span of elderly mice. METHODS This study was carried out both in vitro and in vivo. We used MSCs to intervene with IMR-90 senescent cells induced by D-galactose and aged C57BL/6 mice. RESULTS After 48 hours of co-culturing the aged cells with MSCs, the up-regulated expression of inflammatory factor, interleukin 6 (IL6), and the down-regulated expression of several growth factors, such as transforming growth factor (TGFβ1) and growth differentiation factor (GDF11), in D-galactose induced senescent cells were reversed. Moreover, compared with aged cells, the number of mitochondria and the telomere length were increased with MSC treatment. Similarly, in aged mice, the symptoms related to aging were improved after MSC treatment: the mouse hair became shiny and dense, and the symptoms of bladder overactivity were relieved. Hematoxylin and eosin (H&E) and Masson's trichrome staining showed that the histopathological changes in skin, bladder, liver, and lung were apparently improved. CONCLUSIONS Treatment with MSCs effectively improves aging-related phenotypes and plays a beneficial role in improving aging and aging-related diseases.

Abstract
Increasingly, there is an attempt to minimize expression lines through esthetic procedures, and radiofrequency (RF) is one of the therapeutic modalities. This article aims to systematically review the literature on the different types of RF treatment in clinical trials and in variables related to the aging process. This systematic review included 21 articles that treated 354 people with different physical characteristics. The most used RF was the fractional followed by the non-ablative RF. There was a large discrepancy in relation to the types and parameters. A parameter that did not show so much divergence was the temperature, which was between 38°C and 44°C. The main temporary adverse reactions reported by the authors were as follows: discomfort, pain, erythema, hyperpigmentation, crusting, swelling, edema, and purple and acneic appearance of the skin. Finally, our study concluded that non-ablative and ablative RF was reported to rejuvenate and improve the features of skin in all skin types.

Abstract
Human adipose-derived stem cells (ADSCs) have become a promising therapeutic approach against skin aging. Recent studies confirm that exosomes partially mediate the therapeutic effect of stem cells. This study successfully isolated exosomes from the ADSC culture medium and discovered that ADSC-derived exosomes (ADSC-Exos) could alleviate human dermal fibroblast (HDF) senescence and stimulate HDF migration. Moreover, ADSC-Exos increased the type I collagen expression level and reduced the reactive oxygen species (ROS) and senescence-associated β-galactosidase (SA-β-Gal) activity in HDFs. In addition, we demonstrated that ADSC-Exos significantly inhibited senescence-related protein expression levels of p53, p21, and p16. In conclusion, our results have revealed the antisenescence effects of ADSC-Exos on HDFs and ADSC-Exos may be a novel cell-free therapeutic tool for antiaging.

Abstract
Background Fighting skin aging signs is one of the major challenges of the 21st century, recently, mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) and microneedling (MN) have been applied for anti-aging. This study aims to evaluate the efficacy of the combination of MN and human umbilical cord-derived mesenchymal stem cells conditioned media (hUC-MSCs-CM) in skin brightness and rejuvenation. Methods Thirty volunteers with facial skin aging were recruited for the randomized, controlled split-face study. The left and right sides of the face were randomly applied with saline via MN or hUC-MSCs-CM via MN. Five sessions were performed for each volunteer at 2-week intervals. Two dermatologists evaluated the clinical improvement, in terms of skin brightness and texture. A satisfaction score based on a self-evaluation questionnaire was recorded at 2 weeks after the last treatment. The objective evaluation was recorded before the first treatment, and at 2 weeks after the last treatment. Results Twenty-eight volunteers with a mean (SD) age of 41 (6.54) years old completed the trial. The investigator’s assessment for skin brightness and texture, and the self-satisfaction score revealed statistically better effects in hUC-MSCs-CM -plus-MN group than in MN alone (MN saline) group. No severe side effects were reported during the whole study period. Compared to MN alone group, the objective assessment revealed significant improvements in skin brightness (reduced melanin index, ultraviolet spots, and brown spots) and skin texture (reduced wrinkles and pores, and increased skin elasticity) in hUC-MSCs-CM-plus-MN group, while there were no obvious differences in skin hydration, trans-epidermal water loss, and the erythema index. Conclusion The combination of hUC-MSCs-CM and MN exhibite anti-aging efficacy, and this could be used for facial rejuvenation in the future.

Abstract
Regenerative medicine is a field in medicine that relates to the ability to correct congenital anomalies and to repair or replace tissues and organs that have been destroyed by age, disease, or trauma. To date, promising preclinical and clinical data supported the possibility of using regenerative medicine to treat both chronic diseases and acute insults, as well as maladies affecting a wide range of organ systems and contexts, such as dermal wounds, cardiovascular diseases and traumas, cancer treatments, and more. One of the regenerative medicine therapies that have been used widely is stem cells. Stem cells, especially mesenchymal and hematopoietic stem cells, play an important role in treating chronic diseases, such as leukemia, bone marrow, autoimmune disease, and urinary problems. Despite considerable advancements in stem cell biology, their applications are limited by ethical concerns about embryonic stem cells, tumor development, and rejection. Nevertheless, many of these constraints, are being overcome, which could lead to significant advancements in disease management. This review discusses the current developments and advancements of regenerative medicine therapy (RMT) advancements in Malaysia compared to other Asian countries. The limitations in the application of RMT are also highlighted.

Abstract
Mesenchymal stromal/stem cells (MSCs) have a spontaneous propensity to support tissue homeostasis and regeneration. Among the several sources of MSCs, adipose-derived tissue stem cells (ADSCs) have received major interest due to the higher mesenchymal stem cells concentration, ease, and safety of access. However, since a significant part of the natural capacity of ADSCs to repair damaged tissue is ascribable to their secretory activity that combines mitogenic factors, cytokines, chemokines, lipids, and extracellular matrix components, several studies focused on cell-free strategies. Furthermore, adipose cell-free derivatives are becoming more attractive especially for non-volumizing purposes, such as most dermatological conditions. However, when keratinocytes, fibroblasts, melanocytes, adipocytes, and hair follicle cells might not be locally sourced, graft of materials containing concentrated ADSCs is preferred. The usage of extracellular elements of adipose tissue aims to promote a self-autonomous regenerative microenvironment in the receiving area restoring physiological homeostasis. Hence, ADSCs or their paracrine activity are currently being studied in several dermatological settings including wound healing, skin fibrosis, burn, and aging.The present work analyzing both preclinical and clinical experiences gives an overview of the efficacy of adipose tissue-derivatives like autologous fat, the stromal vascular fraction (SVF), purified ADSCs, secretome and extracellular matrix graft in the field of regenerative medicine for the skin.

[PMID: 35214040 PMCID: PMC8877896 DOI: 10.3390/pharmaceutics14020307] [Citation(s) in RCA: 17] [Impact Index Per Article: 8.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/02/2021] [Revised: 01/17/2022] [Accepted: 01/25/2022] [Indexed: 02/01/2023] Open
Abstract
In this study, we examined the potentially beneficial effects of bovine colostrum-derived exosomes on UV-induced aging and damage in three major resident skin cells including keratinocytes, melanocytes, and fibroblasts. The treatment with colostrum exosomes prevented the UV-induced generation of intracellular reactive oxygen species in epidermal keratinocytes. In UV-stimulated melanocytes, colostrum exosomes could also significantly reduce the production of the protective skin-darkening pigment melanin, which may help to reduce the risk of excessive melanin formation causing skin hyperpigmentation disorders. In the human dermal fibroblasts treated with colostrum exosomes, the expression of matrix metalloproteinases was suppressed, whereas increased cell proliferation was accompanied by enhanced production of collagen, a major extracellular matrix component of skin. Taken together, our findings indicate that bovine colostrum-derived exosomes having excellent structural and functional stability offer great potential as natural therapeutic agents to repair UV-irradiated skin aging and damage.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Fat grafting has been extensively applied as natural filler and has been very promising in restoring volume loss. Lipografting has also been credited to reduce age-related skin changes due to the regenerative potential of adipose derived stem cells. Cell-mediated therapies in plastic surgery are rapidly evolving with growing applications. Nanofat, a bio-regenerative liquid suspension rich in stromal vascular fraction cells without viable adipocytes, has been described as an efficient cutaneous anti-aging therapy. We have published in 2013 a review entitled "stem cell facelift: between reality and fiction." Available clinical evidence at that time did not substantiate marketing and promotional claims of "stem cell facelift". The same year, the report about nanofat was published demonstrating striking clinical outcome. The current literature search is aimed at reviewing any evidence that has emerged since then regarding clinical efficacy of this modality. METHODS A thorough PICO tool-based comprehensive literature search of PubMed database for "the efficacy of nanofat cell-mediated anti-aging therapy" was conducted with a time frame from 2013 till present. RESULTS Despite apparent increasing popularity of stem cell rejuvenation, well-controlled clinical studies about this modality are surprisingly very scarce. Only seven papers published after 2013 were identified and were included in this review CONCLUSION: Though considered to be a safe procedure, and despite documented histologic improvement and striking clinical outcome in some reports, available evidence can hardly support clinical improvement of skin quality. Before cell-mediated aesthetic rejuvenation applications can be routinely undertaken, more robust evidence with well-defined primary outcome end points and objective outcome measures is required.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Over the past 2 decades, fat grafting has been extensively applied in the field of tissue regeneration. OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to investigate the therapeutic potential of microfat, nanofat, and extracellular matrix/stromal vascular fraction gel (SVF-gel) in skin rejuvenation. METHODS Microfat was harvested by a cannula with multiple 0.8-mm smooth side holes and processed with a fat stirrer to remove fibers. Nanofat and SVF-gel were prepared according to previously reported methods, and their structure and viability were evaluated. Then, SVF cells from the 3 types of samples were isolated and characterized, and the cell viability was compared. RESULTS The microstructure of the 3 samples showed distinct differences. The microfat group showed a diameter of 100 to 120.0 μm under the microscope and presented a botryoid shape under calcein acetoxymethyl (calcein-AM)/propidium iodide staining. Scanning electron microscopy analysis showed that the microfat maintained an integral histologic structure. In the nanofat group, no viable adipocytes and no normal histologic structure were observed, but high levels of free lipids were noted. The SVF-gel group showed uniform dispersion of cells with different sizes and parts of the adipose histologic structure. Cell count and culture revealed that the number of viable SVF cells decreased distinctly in the nanofat group compared with the microfat group. In contrast, the number of viable SVF cells in the SVF-gel group increased moderately. Clinical applications with microfat showed marked improvements in skin wrinkles. CONCLUSIONS Microfat can preserve the integrity of the histologic structure and presents the advantages of subcutaneous volumetric restoration and improvement of skin quality in skin rejuvenation compared with the nanofat and SVF-gel.

Abstract
The use of hyaluronic acid (HA) injectable fillers has become increasingly widespread in facial recontouring and rejuvenation. We report our experiences to emphasize the role of HA fillers as tools beyond aesthetic treatments in cases of post-surgical facial sequelae. HA fillers are generally used for aesthetic rejuvenation, but one potential new horizon could be their application in trauma, reconstructive, and craniofacial surgery. This study was conducted retrospectively, evaluating medical reports of patients treated at the Maxillofacial Surgery Unit, University of Campania “Luigi Vanvitelli”, Naples, for lip incompetence, trauma, oncological, reconstructive, and craniosynostosis surgery sequelae. Visual analog scale (VAS) evaluation was performed to assess patient satisfaction. No major complications (i.e., impending necrosis or visual loss) were reported. Bruising and swelling was reported for 48 h after lip injection. At the immediate VAS evaluation, 67% of the patients were “extremely satisfied” and 33% “satisfied”. In those 33%, VAS scores changed to “extremely satisfied” at 6–9 weeks and 3–6 months of VAS evaluation (contextually to improvement in tissue flexibility, elasticity, and aesthetic appearance). Results indicate that this minimally invasive approach achieves a high level of aesthetic enhancement, improving patient satisfaction. The concept of HA filler applications could be a frontier that may be applicable to other areas of reconstructive facial plastic surgery.

Abstract
Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are multipotent stem cells derived from adult stem cells. Primary MSCs can be obtained from diverse sources, including bone marrow, adipose tissue, and umbilical cord blood. Recently, MSCs have been recognized as therapeutic agents for skin regeneration and rejuvenation. The skin can be damaged by wounds, caused by cutting or breaking of the tissue, and burns. Moreover, skin aging is a process that occurs naturally but can be worsened by environmental pollution, exposure to ultraviolet radiation, alcohol consumption, tobacco use, and undernourishment. MSCs have healing capacities that can be applied in damaged and aged skin. In skin regeneration, MSCs increase cell proliferation and neovascularization, and decrease inflammation in skin injury lesions. In skin rejuvenation, MSCs lead to production of collagen and elastic fibers, inhibition of metalloproteinase activation, and promote protection from ultraviolet radiation-induced senescence. In this review, we focus on how MSCs and MSC-derived molecules improve diseased and aged skin. Additionally, we emphasize that induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC)-derived MSCs are potentially advanced MSCs, which are suitable for cell therapy.

Abstract
Photoaging is mainly induced by continuous exposure to sun light, causing multiple unwanted skin characters and accelerating skin aging. Adipose-derived stem cells(ADSCs) are promising in supporting skin repair because of their significant antioxidant capacity and strong proliferation, differentiation, and migration ability, as well as their enriched secretome containing various growth factors and cytokines. The identification of the mechanisms by which ADSCs perform these functions for photoaging has great potential to explore therapeutic applications and combat skin aging. We also review the basic mechanisms of UV-induced skin aging and recent improvement in pre-clinical applications of ADSCs associated with photoaging. Results showed that ADSCs are potential to address photoaging problem and might treat skin cancer. Compared with ADSCs alone, the secretome-based approaches and different preconditionings of ADSCs are more promising to overcome the current limitations and enhance the anti-photoaging capacity.

Abstract
Healthy aging is a complex biological process with progressive accumulation of senescent cells characterized by stable cell cycle arrest, resulting in impaired homeostasis, regenerative potential, and gradual functional decline in multiple tissues and organs, whereby the aberrant activation of mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) signaling networks plays a central role. Herein, we explored the effects of extracellular vesicles (EVs) released by gingiva-derived mesenchymal stem cells (GMSC-EVs) on oxidative stress-induced cellular senescence in human endothelial cells and skin fibroblasts and their antiaging potentials. Our results showed that GMSC-EVs robustly abrogated oxidative stress-induced upregulation in the expression of cellular senescence-related genes, such as β-galactosidase, p21, p53, and γH2AX, and mTOR/pS6 signaling pathway, in human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) and skin fibroblasts. Meanwhile, GMSC-EVs restored oxidative stress-induced impairment in proliferation and tube formation by HUVECs. Systemic administration of GMSC-EVs attenuated aging-associated elevation in the expression levels of p21, mTOR/pS6, interleukin 6, and tumor necrosis factor α in skin and heart tissues of aged mice. These findings suggest that GMSC-EVs could be a potential alternative source of cell-free product for attenuation of aging-related skin and vascular dysfunctions due to their potent inhibitory effects on oxidative stress-induced cellular senescence in endothelial cells and skin fibroblasts.

Abstract
To investigate the effect of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) on ovarian and testicular function of aging Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats induced by D-galactose (D-gal) and try to clarify the underlying functional mechanism. Adherent culture was used to isolate and purify rat MSCs. The status, proliferation and differentiation of MSCs were detected by hematoxylin-eosin staining, MTT, colony formation, flow cytometry and directional differentiation. The aging rat model was established by subcutaneous injection of D-gal, and the homing of MSCs was detected by fluorescence microscope after infusion of GFP-labeled MSCs through caudal vein. ELISA was used to detect the content of sex hormone in serum, and HE staining was used to observe the structure and morphology of testis and ovary. The isolated and purified MSCs were in good condition, and most of the cells were in G1 phase, which had strong abilities of cell proliferation, colony formation and differentiation. After GFP-labeled MSCs were infused, MSCs could be homed into the testis and ovary of rats. MSCs infusion could significantly improve the morphology of testis and ovary, increase the contents of P and E2 while decrease the contents of LH and FSH in female rats, and increase the content of testosterone in male rats (P < 0.01). It also increased the activity of superoxide dismutase (SOD) in serum of ovary and testis and significantly decreased the content of malondialdehyde (MDA). MSCs affected the content of MDA and the activity of SOD by reducing the expression of cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor 2A (p16) and increasing proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA), consequently improving the aging and injury of reproductive organs.

Abstract
Photoaging is a degenerative biological process. As a kind of pluripotent stem cells, adipose-derived stem cells (ADSCs) are widely used in the treatment of photoaging. Therefore, we aimed to find an effective way to improve the antiaging ability of ADSCs. In this study, we isolated ADSCs and assessed multilineage differentiation ability and markers. Cultured ADSCs were preconditioned with astragaloside IV (ASI) at 10-7, 10-6, and 10-5 M. Cell proliferation was assessed by CCK-8 assay and cytokine secretion by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). A fibroblast photoaging model was established and cocultured with normal ADSCs or ASI-treated ADSCs. Matrix metalloproteinase-1 (MMP1) and type I procollagen (PC-I) secreted by human dermal fibroblasts were measured by ELISA. The effects of ASI-treated ADSCs on skin texture, including dermal thickness, collagen content, and microvessel density, in a photoaging animal model were analyzed using H&E staining, Masson staining, and CD31 immunohistochemistry, respectively. We found that 10-6 M ASI could significantly promote cell proliferation and stimulate robust secretion of growth factors in ADSCs. Furthermore, our data showed that ASI-treated ADSCs could markedly reverse the ultraviolet B-induced decrease of PC-I secretion and increase of MMP-1 release in fibroblasts. Moreover, in photoaged skin of nude mice, ASI-treated ADSCs significantly increased dermal thickness, collagen content, and microvessel density.

Abstract
Summary: Exosomes are extracellular vesicles released by the vast majority of cell types both in vivo and ex vivo, upon the fusion of multivesicular bodies (MVBs) with the cellular plasma membrane. Two main functions have been attributed to exosomes: their capacity to transport proteins, lipids and nucleic acids between cells and organs, as well as their potential to act as natural intercellular communicators in normal biological processes and in pathologies. From a clinical perspective, the majority of applications use exosomes as biomarkers of disease. A new approach uses exosomes as biologically active carriers to provide a platform for the enhanced delivery of cargo in vivo. One of the major limitations in developing exosome-based therapies is the difficulty of producing sufficient amounts of safe and efficient exosomes. The identification of potential proteins involved in exosome biogenesis is expected to directly cause a deliberate increase in exosome production. In this review, we summarize the current state of knowledge regarding exosomes, with particular emphasis on their structural features, biosynthesis pathways, production techniques and potential clinical applications.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The use of stem cells derived growth factors is representing a novel treatment modality in facial rejuvenation. Nowadays, skin needling is considered a very famous treatment of skin aging. However, the addition of such derived products, augments its therapeutic efficacy in the management and delay of skin aging. OBJECTIVE Comparing the effect of amniotic fluid mesenchymal stem cell derived conditioned media (AF-MSC-CM) combined with skin needling versus the needling alone in the management of facial aging. METHODS Both sides of the face of ten volunteers, suffering from facial aging, were treated with five sessions of skin needling, 2 weeks apart. After skin microneedling, AF-MSC-CM was added topically to the right side only. Clinical, histological, and morphometrical assessment of the treated skin was done at 1 month after the last session. RESULTS The percentage of improvement of aged skin increased significantly on the combined treated side (AF-MSC-CM and dermaroller [DR]), when compared with the other side (DR only) (P < .001). Remodeling of the dermal structures was observed mainly on the combined side. Meanwhile, histometry of the epidermis revealed a significant increase in the epidermal thickness on both treated sides. CONCLUSION AF-MSC-CM combined with skin needling was more efficient in managing facial aging than skin needling alone.

Abstract
Severe corticosteroid-refractory graft-versus-host-disease (GVHD) is a major non-relapse cause of mortality and morbidity after an allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT). One of the most promising treatment options is using advanced therapy medicinal products based on mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) immunomodulation ability. The protocols of MSC application differ in many parameters including a source of MSC, a dose, a number of doses or way of preparation of the medicinal product. The process is limited by the need for laborious and expensive manufacturing processes fraught with batch-to-batch variability. In our study, we compared the immunomodulatory effects of different MSC batches versus pooled MSC, specifically the influence on lymphocyte proliferation, the metabolic activity, and the expression of activation markers on T cells. Our goal was to determine whether the effect depends on donor-to-donor heterogeneity and if pooling of MSCs could increase their immunomodulatory ability. All tested batches showed an immunomodulatory effect, with no significant differences between the groups. Our study suggests that immunosuppressive potential is comparable in single batches and pooled products, and the use of products got from individual donors is suitable to treat corticosteroid-refractory GVHD.
