Abstract
BACKGROUND
Identification of novel cell-based therapy sources has been of great interest in recent years to provide alternative and available therapy options in clinics. Conditioned medium (CM) can be a valuable supply for growth factors, cytokines and chemokines as a source of stem cell secretome. Exploring the role of new CM sources for tissue regeneration might be a promising approach for therapeutic purposes.
METHODS AND RESULTS
In the current study, neuromesodermal progenitors (NMPs) derived from induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) were used to collect CM. Fibroblast derived iPSCs were successfully differentiated into NMPs and NMPs were characterized by double positive T/Bra and Sox2 staining. CM was collected from NMPs, and the content was characterized by membrane analysis. In vitro wound healing assay was used as a model system to observe potential activity of CM on cell migration. Fibroblasts, keratinocytes and endothelial cells were used to evaluate the effect of NMP-derived CM (NMP-CM) on cell migration in vitro. Several important proteins related to wound healing such as ANGPT 1, ANGPT 2, MCP-1, PDGF-AA, SDF-1α, TIMP-1 and TIMP-2 were increased in NMP-CM. NMP-CM increased cell proliferation and migration in vitro.
CONCLUSIONS
In vitro data obtained from three distinct cell types suggest a promising role of NMP-CM on cell migration. NMP-CM can be used for wound management in the further future after detailed in vitro and in vivo research.
