Abstract
Repair of acute kidney injury (AKI) is a typical example of renal regeneration. AKI is characterized by tubular cell death, peritubular capillary (PTC) thinning, and immune system activation. After renal tubule injury, resident renal progenitor cells, or renal tubule dedifferentiation, give rise to renal progenitor cells and repair the damaged renal tubule through proliferation and differentiation. Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) also play an important role in renal tubular repair. AKI leads to sparse PTC, affecting the supply of nutrients and oxygen and indirectly aggravating AKI. Therefore, repairing PTC is important for the prognosis of AKI. The activation of the immune system is conducive for the body to clear the necrotic cells and debris generated by AKI; however, if the immune activation is too strong or lengthy, it will cause damage to renal tubule cells or inhibit their repair. Macrophages have been shown to play an important role in the repair of kidney injury. Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) has unique advantages in the treatment of AKI and a series of studies have been conducted on the topic in recent years. Herein, the role of TCM in promoting the repair of renal injury and its molecular mechanism is discussed from three perspectives: repair of renal tubular epithelial cells, repair of PTC, and regulation of macrophages to provide a reference for the treatment and mechanistic research of AKI.

Immunomodulatory performance of GMP-compliant, clinical-grade mesenchymal stromal cells from four different sources. Heliyon 2024; 10:e24948. [PMID: 38312681 PMCID: PMC10835001 DOI: 10.1016/j.heliyon.2024.e24948] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/09/2023] [Revised: 01/17/2024] [Accepted: 01/17/2024] [Indexed: 02/06/2024] Open
Abstract
Inflammatory and autoimmune diseases are among the most challenging disorders for health care professionals that require systemic immune suppression which associates with various side effects. Mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) are capable of regulating immune responses, mainly through paracrine effects and cell-cell contact. Since MSCs are advanced therapy medicinal products (ATMPs), they must follow Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) regulations to ensure their safety and efficacy. In this study, we evaluated the immunomodulatory effects of GMP-compliant clinical grade MSCs obtained from four different sources (bone marrow, adipose tissue, Wharton's Jelly, and decidua tissue) on allogeneic peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs). Our results revealed that WJ-MSCs were the most successful group in inhibiting PBMC proliferation as confirmed by BrdU analysis. Moreover, WJ-MSCs were the strongest group in enhancing the regulatory T cell population of PBMCs. WJ-MSCs also had the highest secretory profile of prostaglandin E2 (PGE-2), anti-inflammatory cytokine, while interleukin-10 (IL-10) secretion was highest in the DS-MSC group. DS-MSCs also had the lowest secretion of IL-12 and IL-17 inflammatory cytokines. Transcriptome analysis revealed that WJ-MSCs had the lowest expression of IL-6, while DS-MSCs were the most potent group in the expression of immunomodulatory factors such as hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) and transforming growth factor-β (TGF- β). Taken together, our results indicated that GMP-compliant Wharton's Jelly and decidua-derived MSCs showed the best immunomodulatory performance considering paracrine factors.

Abstract
Renal disease is a medical condition that poses a potential threat to the life of an individual and is related to substantial morbidity and mortality rates in clinical environments. The aetiology of this condition is influenced by multiple factors, and its incidence tends to increase with progressive aging. Although supportive therapy and kidney transplantation have potential advantages, they also have limitations in terms of mitigating the progression of KD. Despite significant advancements in the domain of supportive therapy, mortality rates in patients continue to increase. Due to their ability to self-renew and multidirectionally differentiate, stem cell therapy has been shown to have tremendous potential in the repair of the diseased kidney. MSCs (Mesenchymal stem cells) are a cell population that is extensively distributed and can be located in various niches throughout an individual's lifespan. The cells in question are characterised by their potential for indefinite replication and their aptitude for undergoing differentiation into fully developed cells of mesodermal origin under laboratory conditions. It is essential to emphasize that MSCs have demonstrated a favorable safety profile and efficacy as a therapeutic intervention for renal diseases in both preclinical as well as clinical investigations. MSCs have been found to slow the advancement of kidney disease, and this impact is thought to be due to their control over a number of physiological processes, including immunological response, tubular epithelial- mesenchymal transition, oxidative stress, renal tubular cell death, and angiogenesis. In addition, MSCs demonstrate recognised effectiveness in managing both acute and chronic kidney diseases via paracrine pathways. The proposal to utilise a therapy that is based on stem-cells as an effective treatment has been put forward in search of discovering novel therapies to promote renal regeneration. Preclinical researchers have demonstrated that various types of stem cells can provide advantages in acute and chronic kidney disease. Moreover, preliminary results from clinical trials have suggested that these interventions are both safe and well-tolerated. This manuscript provides a brief overview of the potential renoprotective effects of stem cell-based treatments in acute as well as chronic renal dysfunction. Furthermore, the mechanisms that govern the process of kidney regeneration induced by stem cells are investigated. This article will examine the therapeutic approaches that make use of stem cells for the treatment of kidney disorders. The analysis will cover various cellular sources that have been utilised, potential mechanisms involved, and the outcomes that have been achieved so far.

Abstract
The research on lipid droplets (LDs) has attracted great attention in the field of biomedical science in recent years. LD malfunction is found to be associated with the development of acute kidney injury (AKI). To monitor this biological process and explain related pathological behavior, the development of excellent LD fluorescent probes with a polarity-sensitive character would provide a desirable strategy. Herein, we designed a new polarity-susceptible fluorescent probe named LD-B with LD targetability, which exhibits very weak fluorescence in highly polar solvents based on the twisted intramolecular charge transfer effect but enhanced fluorescence in low polar environments, enabling us to visualize polarity alteration. The probe LD-B also possesses the merits of intense near-infrared (NIR) emission, good photostability, large Stokes shift, low toxicity, faster metabolic rate, and wash-free ability; thereby, it would contribute to efficient LD fluorescence visualization application. Using LD-B via confocal laser scanning fluorescence imaging and a small-animal imaging system in vivo, we first manifested a prominent rise of LD polarity in contrast-induced AKI (CI-AKI), not only at the cellular level but also in animals in vivo. Furthermore, the in vivo studies suggest that LD-B could accumulate in the kidney. In addition, the normal cell lines (including kidney cells) exhibiting a greater polarity of LDs than the cancer cells have been demonstrated systemically. Altogether, our work presents an effective approach for the medical diagnosis of LDs related to CI-AKI and identification of potential therapeutic markers.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE This experiment was designed to demonstrate Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) derived from kidney can alleviate cisplatin-induced kidney injury and renal cell apoptosis through paracrine pathway. METHODS Firstly, MSCs were isolated from kidney of young rats, and their surface-specific markers were identified by Reverse Transcription-Polymerase Chain Reaction (RT-PCR) and immunofluorescence staining. Self-renewal ability of Kidney Mesenchymal Stem Cells (KMSCs) was observed by cell counting and 5-Bromo-2'-deoxyuridine (BrdU) fluorescence staining. KMSCs at logarithmic growth stage were traced and injected into rat through tail vein. RESULTS The results showed that KMSCs homed in the kidney tissues, decreased the secretion of inflammatory factors (CRP, TNFα, IL-1β, IL-6), and alleviated renal function. Hematoxylin and Eosin (H&E), Masson and Periodic Acid-silver Methenamine (PASM) staining showed that KMSCs could alleviate pathological damage in rats. Terminal Deoxynucleotidyl Transferase mediated dUTP Nick-End Labeling (TUNEL) assay showed that KMSCs could reduce the apoptosis of rat kidney cells induced by cisplatin. Finally, Immunohistochemistry (IHC) results showed that cisplatin could induce higher expression of the pro-apoptotic protein Bax and lower expression of anti-apoptotic Bcl-2 in kidney tissues. However, KMSCs could reverse the pro-apoptotic effect of cisplatin on kidney cells and improve the survival rate of rats. CONCLUSIONS In conclusion, KMSCs were successfully isolated from kidney tissues, and KMSCs have therapeutic effects on rat kidney injury induced by cisplatin.

Abstract
Edema caused by kidney disease is called renal edema. Edema is a common symptom of many human kidney diseases. Patients with renal edema often need to take diuretics.However, After taking diuretics, patients with kidney diseases are prone to kidney congestion, decreased renal perfusion, decreased diuretics secreted by renal tubules, neuroendocrine system abnormalities, abnormal ion transporter transport, drug interaction, electrolyte disorder, and hypoproteinemia, which lead to ineffective or weakened diuretic use and increase readmission rate and mortality. The main causes and coping strategies of diuretic resistance in patients with kidney diseases were described in detail in this report. The common causes of DR included poor diet (electrolyte disturbance and hypoproteinemia due to patients' failure to limit diet according to correct sodium, chlorine, potassium, and protein level) and poor drug compliance (the patient did not take adequate doses of diuretics. true resistance occurs only if the patient takes adequate doses of diuretics, but they are not effective), changes in pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics, electrolyte disorders, changes in renal adaptation, functional nephron reduction, and decreased renal blood flow. Common treatment measures include increasing in the diuretic dose and/or frequency, sequential nephron blockade,using new diuretics, ultrafiltration treatment, etc. In clinical work, measures should be taken to prevent or delay the occurrence and development of DR in patients with kidney diseases according to the actual situation of patients and the mechanism of various causes. Currently, there are many studies on DR in patients with heart diseases. Although the phenomenon of DR in patients with kidney diseases is common, there is a relatively little overview of the mechanism and treatment strategy of DR in patients with kidney diseases. Therefore, this paper hopes to show the information on DR in patients with kidney diseases to clinicians and researchers and broaden the research direction and ideas to a certain extent.

Abstract
Acute kidney injury is a heterogeneous set of disorders distinguished by a sudden decrease in the glomerular filtration rate, which is evidenced by an increase in the serum creatinine concentration or oliguria and categorized by stage and cause. It is an ever-growing health problem worldwide, with no reliable treatment. In the present study, we evaluated the role of Clitoria ternatea combined with mesenchymal stem cells in treating cisplatin-induced acute kidney injury in rats. Animals were challenged with cisplatin, followed by 400 mg/kg of Asian pigeonwing extract and/or mesenchymal stem cells (106 cells/150 g body weight). Kidney functions and enzymes were recorded, and histopathological sectioning was also performed. The expression profile of IL-1β, IL-6, and caspase-3 was assessed using the quantitative polymerase chain reaction. The obtained data indicated that mesenchymal stem cells combined with the botanical extract modulated the creatinine uric acid and urea levels. Cisplatin increased the level of malondialdehyde and decreased the levels of both superoxide dismutase and glutathione; however, the dual treatment was capable of restoring the normal levels. Furthermore, all treatments modulated the IL-6, IL-1β, and caspase-3 gene expression profiles. The obtained data shed some light on adjuvant therapy using C. ternatea and mesenchymal stem cells in treating acute kidney injury; however, further investigations are required to understand these agents’ synergistic mechanisms fully. The total RNA was extracted from the control, the positive control, and all of the therapeutically treated animals. The expression profiles of the IL-6, IL-1β, and caspase-3 genes were evaluated using the real-time polymerase chain reaction. Cisplatin treatment caused a significant upregulation in IL-6. All treatments could mitigate the IL-6-upregulating effect of cisplatin, with the mesenchymal stem cell treatment being the most effective. The same profile was observed in the IL-1β and caspase-3 genes, except that the dual treatment (mesenchymal stem cells and the botanical extract) was the most effective in ameliorating the adverse effect of cisplatin; it downregulated caspase-3 expression better than the positive control.

Abstract
Bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) is a chronic lung disease due to impaired pulmonary development and is one of the main causes of respiratory failure in preterm infants. Preterm infants with BPD have significantly higher complication and mortality rates than those without BPD. At present, comprehensive management is the main intervention method for BPD, including reasonable respiratory and circulatory support, appropriate enteral nutrition and parenteral nutrition, application of caffeine/glucocorticoids/surfactants, and out-of-hospital management after discharge. The continuous advances in stem cell medicine in recent years provide new ideas for the treatment of BPD. Various pre-clinical trials have confirmed that stem cell therapy can effectively prevent lung injury and promote lung growth and damage repair. This article performs a comprehensive analysis of the mechanism of mesenchymal stem cells in the treatment of BPD, so as to provide a basis for clinical applications.
