Abstract
Understanding the impact of various culturing strategies on the secretome composition of adipose-derived stromal cells (ASC) enhances their therapeutic potential. This study investigated changes in the secretome of perirenal ASC (prASC) under different conditions: normoxia, cytokine exposure, high glucose, hypoxia, and hypoxia with high glucose. Using mass spectrometry and enrichment clustering analysis, we found that normoxia enriched pathways related to extracellular matrix (ECM) organization, platelet degranulation, and insulin-like growth factor (IGF) transport and uptake. Cytokine exposure influenced metabolism, vascular development, and protein processing pathways. High glucose affected the immune system, metabolic processes, and IGF transport and uptake. Hypoxia impacted immune and metabolic processes and protein processing. Combined hypoxia and high glucose influenced the immune system, IGF transport and uptake, and ECM organization. Our findings highlight the potential of manipulating culturing conditions to produce secretomes with distinct protein and functional profiles, tailoring therapeutic strategies accordingly.

Epidermal Neural Crest Stem Cell Conditioned Medium Enhances Spinal Cord Injury Recovery via PI3K/AKT-Mediated Neuronal Apoptosis Suppression. Neurochem Res 2024; 49:2854-2870. [PMID: 39023805 PMCID: PMC11365850 DOI: 10.1007/s11064-024-04207-8] [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: 09/23/2023] [Revised: 04/19/2024] [Accepted: 07/05/2024] [Indexed: 07/20/2024]
Abstract
This study aimed to assess the impact of conditioned medium from epidermal neural crest stem cells (EPI-NCSCs-CM) on functional recovery following spinal cord injury (SCI), while also exploring the involvement of the PI3K-AKT signaling pathway in regulating neuronal apoptosis. EPI-NCSCs were isolated from 10-day-old Sprague-Dawley rats and cultured for 48 h to obtain EPI-NCSC-CM. SHSY-5Y cells were subjected with H2O2 treatment to induce apoptosis. Cell viability and survival rates were evaluated using the CCK-8 assay and calcein-AM/PI staining. SCI contusion model was established in adult Sprague-Dawley rats to assess functional recovery, utilizing the Basso, Beattie and Bresnahan (BBB) scoring system, inclined test, and footprint observation. Neurological restoration after SCI was analyzed through electrophysiological recordings. Histological analysis included hematoxylin and eosin (H&E) staining and Nissl staining to evaluate tissue organization. Apoptosis and oxidative stress levels were assessed using TUNEL staining and ROS detection methods. Additionally, western blotting was performed to examine the expression of apoptotic markers and proteins related to the PI3K/AKT signaling pathway. EPI-NCSC-CM significantly facilitated functional and histological recovery in SCI rats by inhibiting neuronal apoptosis through modulation of the PI3K/AKT pathway. Administration of EPI-NCSCs-CM alleviated H2O2-induced neurotoxicity in SHSY-5Y cells in vitro. The use of LY294002, a PI3K inhibitor, underscored the crucial role of the PI3K/AKT signaling pathway in regulating neuronal apoptosis. This study contributes to the ongoing exploration of molecular pathways involved in spinal cord injury (SCI) repair, focusing on the therapeutic potential of EPI-NCSC-CM. The research findings indicate that EPI-NCSC-CM exerts a neuroprotective effect by suppressing neuronal apoptosis through activation of the PI3K/AKT pathway in SCI rats. These results highlight the promising role of EPI-NCSC-CM as a potential treatment strategy for SCI, emphasizing the significance of the PI3K/AKT pathway in mediating its beneficial effects.

Abstract
Diabetic foot ulcers (DFUs) are chronic wounds and one of the most common complications of diabetes, imposing significant physical and mental burdens on patients due to their poor prognosis and treatment efficacy. Adipose-derived stem cells (ADSCs) have been proven to promote wound healing, with studies increasingly attributing these beneficial effects to their paracrine actions. Consequently, research on ADSC secretome as a novel and promising alternative for DFU treatment has been extensively conducted. This article provides a comprehensive review of the mechanisms underlying refractory DFU wounds, the secretome of ADSCs, and its role in promoting wound healing in diabetes foot ulcers. And the review aims to provide reliable evidence for the clinical application of ADSC secretome in the treatment of refractory DFU wounds.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is a major cause of neurological disability, and current treatments have limited effectiveness. Recent studies have emphasized the potential of exosomes derived from umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells (UC-MSCs-Exo) in TBI treatment, but the molecular mechanisms underlying their therapeutic effects are not fully understood. METHODS AND RESULTS In this study, UC-MSCs-Exo was isolated using ultracentrifugation and intraventricularly injected to TBI rat model. The neurofunctional motor function of the rats was evaluated using the modified neurological severity score (mNSS), and the activation of microglia was assessed through immunofluorescence detection of IBA1 expression levels. Additionally, we established an in vitro neuroinflammatory model using BV2 microglia to investigate the effects of UC-MSCs-Exo and miRNA-21. Our findings indicate that UC-MSCs-Exo promote neurological recovery in TBI rats and inhibit excessive microglia activation. Furthermore, UC-MSCs-Exo highly expresses miRNA-21 and inhibited the proliferation, migration, and release of inflammatory mediators of BV2 microglia by transporting miRNA-21. CONCLUSIONS The present study suggests that the promotion of neurological recovery in TBI rats by UC-MSCs-Exo may be attributed to the inhibition of excessive microglia activation through miRNA-21.

Abstract
Scars may represent more than a cosmetic concern for patients; they may impose functional limitations and are frequently associated with the sensation of itching or pain, thus impacting both psychological and physical well-being. From an aesthetic perspective, scars display variances in color, thickness, texture, contour, and their homogeneity, while the functional aspect encompasses considerations of functionality, pliability, and sensory perception. Scars located in critical anatomic areas have the potential to induce profound impairments, including contracture-related mobility restrictions, thereby significantly impacting daily functioning and the quality of life. Conventional approaches to scar management may suffice to a certain extent, yet there are cases where tailored interventions are warranted. Autologous fat grafting emerges as a promising therapeutic avenue in such instances. Fundamental mechanisms underlying scar formation include chronic inflammation, fibrogenesis and dysregulated wound healing, among other contributing factors. These mechanisms can potentially be alleviated through the application of adipose-derived stem cells, which represent the principal cellular component utilized in the process of lipofilling. Adipose-derived stem cells possess the capacity to secrete proangiogenic factors such as fibroblast growth factor, vascular endothelial growth factor and hepatocyte growth factor, as well as neurotrophic factors, such as brain-derived neurotrophic factors. Moreover, they exhibit multipotency, remodel the extracellular matrix, act in a paracrine manner, and exert immunomodulatory effects through cytokine secretion. These molecular processes contribute to neoangiogenesis, the alleviation of chronic inflammation, and the promotion of a conducive milieu for wound healing. Beyond the obvious benefit in restoring volume, the adipose-derived stem cells and their regenerative capacities facilitate a reduction in pain, pruritus, and fibrosis. This review elucidates the regenerative potential of autologous fat grafting and its beneficial and promising effects on both functional and aesthetic outcomes when applied to scar tissue.

Abstract
The use of platelet-rich plasma (PRP) and adipose-derived stromal cells (ADSC) have been investigated as a form of wound healing enhancement. The objective of this work was to evaluate the association of red propolis (RP) and PRP as inducers of ADSC for application in tissue regeneration. Adipose tissue post-collection and post-cryopreservation was isolated with type II collagenase, characterized by flow cytometry, and differentiated into osteogenic, chondrogenic and adipose cell. The viability of ADSC was evaluated when exposed to different concentrations of RP using the MTT and trypan blue assay. Acridine orange and ethidium bromide (AO/EB) was performed to evaluate cell death events. Horizontal migration methods were investigated in ADSC using autologous and homologous PRP associated with RP (PRP/RP). All assays were processed in triplicate. Flow cytometry and cellular differentiation showed that type II collagenase was effective for isolating ADSC post-collection and post-cryopreservation. RP extracts at concentrations of up to 50 μg.mL-1 presented no cytotoxic effects. Association of PRP and RP at 25 and 50 μg.ml-1 influenced ADSC migration, with total closure on the seventh day after exposition. The results here presented could stimulate proliferation of ADSC cells that may contribute directly or indirectly to the reconstructive process of tissue regeneration.

Abstract
Adipose tissue (AT) serves as an energy-capacitive organ and performs functions involving paracrine- and endocrine-mediated regulation via extracellular vesicles (EVs) secretion. Exosomes, a subtype of EVs, contain various bioactive molecules with regulatory effects, such as nucleic acids, proteins, and lipids. AT-derived exosomes (AT-exos) include exosomes derived from various cells in AT, including adipocytes, adipose-derived stem cells (ADSCs), macrophages, and endothelial cells. This review aimed to comprehensively evaluate the impacts of different AT-exos on the regulation of physiological and pathological processes. The contents and functions of adipocyte-derived exosomes and ADSC-derived exosomes are compared simultaneously, highlighting their similarities and differences. The contents of AT-exos have been shown to exert complex regulatory effects on local inflammation, tumor dynamics, and insulin resistance. Significantly, differences in the cargoes of AT-exos have been observed among diabetes patients, obese individuals, and healthy individuals. These differences could be used to predict the development of diabetes mellitus and as therapeutic targets for improving insulin sensitivity and glucose tolerance. However, further research is needed to elucidate the underlying mechanisms and potential applications of AT-exos.

Abstract
Inflammation is a key pathological feature of many diseases, disrupting normal tissue structure and resulting in irreversible damage. Despite the need for effective inflammation control, current treatments, including stem cell therapies, remain insufficient. Recently, extracellular vesicles secreted by adipose-derived stem cells (ADSC-EVs) have garnered attention for their significant anti-inflammatory properties. As carriers of bioactive substances, these vesicles have demonstrated potent capabilities in modulating inflammation and promoting tissue repair in conditions such as rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis, diabetes, cardiovascular diseases, stroke, and wound healing. Consequently, ADSC-EVs are emerging as promising alternatives to conventional ADSC-based therapies, offering advantages such as reduced risk of immune rejection, enhanced stability, and ease of storage and handling. However, the specific mechanisms by which ADSC-EVs regulate inflammation under pathological conditions are not fully understood. This review discusses the role of ADSC-EVs in inflammation control, their impact on disease prognosis, and their potential to promote tissue repair. Additionally, it provides insights into future clinical research focused on ADSC-EV therapies for inflammatory diseases, which overcome some limitations associated with cell-based therapies.

Abstract
Peripheral nerve injuries (PNIs) are the term used to describe injuries that occur to the nerve fibers of the peripheral nervous system (PNS). Such injuries may be caused by trauma, infection, or aberrant immunological response. Although the peripheral nervous system has a limited capacity for self-repair, in cases of severe damage, this process is either interrupted entirely or is only partially completed. The evaluation of variables that promote the repair of peripheral nerves has consistently been a focal point. Exosomes are a subtype of extracellular vesicles that originate from cellular sources and possess abundant proteins, lipids, and nucleic acids, play a critical role in facilitating intercellular communication. Due to their modifiable composition, they possess exceptional capabilities as carriers for therapeutic compounds, including but not limited to mRNAs or microRNAs. Exosome-based therapies have gained significant attention in the treatment of several nervous system diseases due to their advantageous properties, such as low toxicity, high stability, and limited immune system activation. The objective of this review article is to provide an overview of exosome-based treatments that have been developed in recent years for a range of PNIs, including nerve trauma, diabetic neuropathy, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), glaucoma, and Guillain-Barre syndrome (GBS). It was concluded that exosomes could provide favorable results in the improvement of peripheral PNIs by facilitating the transfer of regenerative factors. The development of bioengineered exosome therapy for PNIs should be given more attention to enhance the efficacy of exosome treatment for PNIs.

Assessing the effect of adipose-tissue-derived stem cell conditioned medium on follicles and stromal cells in bovine ovarian tissue culture. Reprod Biomed Online 2024; 49:103938. [PMID: 38759499 DOI: 10.1016/j.rbmo.2024.103938] [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: 10/06/2023] [Revised: 01/31/2024] [Accepted: 03/05/2024] [Indexed: 05/19/2024]
Abstract
RESEARCH QUESTION Does adipose-tissue-derived stem cell conditioned medium (ASC-CM) supplementation enhance follicle and stromal cell outcomes in vitro? DESIGN Bovine ovaries (n = 8) were sectioned and cultured in vitro for 8 days in two different groups: (i) standard culture (OT Ctrl D8); and (ii) culture with ASC-CM supplementation (OT + CM D8). Half of the culture medium was replaced every other day, and stored to measure the production of oestradiol. Follicle classification was established using haematoxylin and eosin staining. Follicle and stromal cell DNA fragmentation was assessed by TUNEL assays, while growth differentiation factor-9 (GDF-9) staining served as a marker of follicle quality. Additionally, three factors, namely vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), interleukin 6 (IL-6) and transforming growth factor beta 1 (TGF-β1), were evaluated in ASC-CM in order to appraise the potential underlying mechanisms of action of ASC. RESULTS The OT + CM D8 group showed a significantly higher proportion of secondary follicles (P = 0.02) compared with the OT Ctrl D8 group. The OT + CM D8 group also demonstrated significantly lower percentages of TUNEL-positive follicles (P = 0.014) and stromal cells (P = 0.001) compared with the OT Ctrl D8 group. Furthermore, follicles in the OT + CM D8 group exhibited a significant increase (P = 0.002) in expression of GDF-9 compared with those in the OT Ctrl D8 group, and oestradiol production was significantly higher (P = 0.04) in the OT + CM D8 group. All studied factors were found to be present in ASC-CM. VEGF and IL-6 were the most widely expressed factors, while TGF-β1 showed the lowest expression. CONCLUSIONS Addition of ASC-CM to culture medium enhances follicle survival, development and oestradiol production, and promotes the viability of stromal cells. VEGF, IL-6 and TGF-β1 could be paracrine mediators underlying the beneficial effects.

Abstract
Background Capsular contracture is a common complication affecting about 80% of patients who receive radiotherapy after breast reconstruction with silicone prostheses. This study examines the use of adipocyte stem cells (ASCs) to treat capsular contracture. Methods Thirty rats were operated on to implant a minisilicone prosthesis in the dorsal region. The rats were divided into three groups: control (saline solution injection), radiotherapy (RDT), and RDT + ASC. After 3 months, the capsules were collected and submitted to histological analysis for inflammatory cell presence, vascular density, and collagen fibers, and gene expression of Tnf, Il1rap, Il10, Cd68, Mmp3, and Mmp9 by qPCR. Results In macroscopic analysis, the RTGO score showed a two-point reduction in RDT + ASC compared with the RDT (P = 0.003). In histological analysis, ASC exhibited less than 50% of inflammatory cells compared with RDT (P = 0.004), which was similar to control. This study demonstrated that Il1rap gene expression was identical in both RDT and RTD + ASC. Compared with control, treatment with ASC reduced Il1rap expression by 30%. Cd68 and Mmp3 expression levels were similar in both the control and RTD + ASC. Conclusion This study suggests that ASC treatment decreases silicone prosthesis capsule inflammation.

Microfragmented abdominal adipose tissue-derived stem cells from knee osteoarthritis patients aged 29-65 years demonstrate in vitro stemness and low levels of cellular senescence. J Exp Orthop 2024; 11:e12056. [PMID: 38911188 PMCID: PMC11190460 DOI: 10.1002/jeo2.12056] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/02/2024] [Revised: 05/13/2024] [Accepted: 05/14/2024] [Indexed: 06/25/2024] Open
Abstract
Purpose To investigate the level of cellular senescence in stem cells derived from microfragmented abdominal adipose tissue harvested from patients with knee osteoarthritis (OA). Methods Stem cells harvested from microfragmented abdominal adipose tissue from 20 patients with knee OA, aged 29-65 years (mean = 49.8, SD = 9.58), were analysed as a function of patient age and compared with control cells exhibiting signs of cellular senescence. Steady-state mRNA levels of a panel of genes associated with senescence were measured by qPCR. Intracellular senescence-associated proteins p16 and p21, and senescence-associated β-galactosidase activity were measured by flow cytometry. Cellular proliferation was assessed using a 5-ethynyl-2'-deoxyuridine proliferation assay. Stemness was assessed by stem cell surface markers using flow cytometry and the capacity to undergo adipogenic and osteogenic differentiation in vitro. Results No correlation was found between cellular senescence levels of the microfragmented adipose tissue-derived stem cells and patient age for any of the standard assays used to quantify senescence. The level of cellular senescence was generally low across all senescence-associated assays compared to the positive senescence control. Stemness was verified for all samples. An increased capacity to undergo adipogenic differentiation was shown with increasing patient age (p = 0.02). No effect of patient age was found for osteogenic differentiation. Conclusions Autologous microfragmented adipose tissue-derived stem cells may be used in clinical trials of knee OA of patients aged 29-65 years, at least until passage 4, as they show stemness potential and negligible senescence in vitro. Level of Evidence Not applicable.

Abstract
Background and Aim The intricate healing process involves distinct sequential and overlapping phases in thermal injury. To maintain the zone of stasis in Jackson's burn wound model, proper wound intervention is essential. The extent of research on the histoarchitecture of thermal wound healing and the application of mesenchymal stem cell (MSC)-free-based therapy is limited. This study aimed to assess the efficacy of MSC-secretome-based hydrogel for treating partial-thickness cutaneous thermal burn wounds. Materials and Methods Eighteen male Wistar rats were divided into three groups, namely the hydrogel base (10 mg), hydrogel secretome (10 mg) and Bioplacenton™ (10 mg) treatment groups. All groups were treated twice a day (morning and evening) for 7 days. Skin tissue samples from the animals were processed for histological evaluation using the formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded method on days 3 and 7. Results This study's findings showed that secretome hydrogel expedited thermal burn wound healing, decreasing residual burn area, boosting collagen deposition and angiogenesis, guiding scar formation, and influencing the inflammation response facilitated by polymorphonuclear leukocytes and macrophages. Conclusion The secretome hydrogel significantly improves healing outcomes in partial-thickness cutaneous thermal burn wounds. The administration of secretome hydrogel accelerates the reduction of the residual burn area and promotes fibroblast proliferation and collagen density. The repairment of histo-architecture of the damaged tissue was also observed such as the reduction of burn depth, increased angiogenesis and epidermal scar index while the decreased dermal scar index. Furthermore, the secretome hydrogel can modulate the immunocompetent cells by decreasing the polymorphonuclear and increasing the mononuclear cells. Thus, it effectively and safely substitutes for thermal injury stem cell-free therapeutic approaches. The study focuses on the microscopical evaluation of secretome hydrogel; further research to investigate at the molecular level may be useful in predicting the beneficial effect of secretome hydrogel in accelerating wound healing.

Abstract
There is a knowledge gap regarding the effect of extracorporeal shockwave treatment (ESWT) on the stress response and immunomodulatory and anti-inflammatory properties of equine umbilical cord blood mesenchymal stromal cells (CB-MSCs). The objective of this study was to investigate the presence of cellular oxidative stress, inflammatory response, and production of growth factors in CB-MSCs after treatment with ESWT. We hypothesized that CB-MSCs treated with ESWT will experience higher levels of cellular stress and increased production of anti-inflammatory cytokines and growth factors compared to untreated CB-MSCs.

Abstract
Adipose-derived stem cells (ADSCs) are a subset of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) isolated from adipose tissue. They possess remarkable properties, including multipotency, self-renewal, and easy clinical availability. ADSCs are also capable of promoting tissue regeneration through the secretion of various cytokines, factors, and extracellular vesicles (EVs). ADSC-derived EVs (ADSC-EVs) act as intercellular signaling mediators that encapsulate a range of biomolecules. These EVs have been found to mediate the therapeutic activities of donor cells by promoting the proliferation and migration of effector cells, facilitating angiogenesis, modulating immunity, and performing other specific functions in different tissues. Compared to the donor cells themselves, ADSC-EVs offer advantages such as fewer safety concerns and more convenient transportation and storage for clinical application. As a result, these EVs have received significant attention as cell-free therapeutic agents with potential future application in regenerative medicine. In this review, we focus on recent research progress regarding regenerative medical use of ADSC-EVs across various medical conditions, including wound healing, chronic limb ischemia, angiogenesis, myocardial infarction, diabetic nephropathy, fat graft survival, bone regeneration, cartilage regeneration, tendinopathy and tendon healing, peripheral nerve regeneration, and acute lung injury, among others. We also discuss the underlying mechanisms responsible for inducing these therapeutic effects. We believe that deciphering the biological properties, therapeutic effects, and underlying mechanisms associated with ADSC-EVs will provide a foundation for developing a novel therapeutic approach in regenerative medicine.

Abstract
Spinal cord injury (SCI) has limited treatment options for regaining function. Adipose-derived stem cells (ADSCs) show promise owing to their ability to differentiate into multiple cell types, promote nerve cell survival, and modulate inflammation. This review explores ADSC therapy for SCI, focusing on its potential for improving function, preclinical and early clinical trial progress, challenges, and future directions. Preclinical studies have demonstrated ADSC transplantation's effectiveness in promoting functional recovery, reducing cavity formation, and enhancing nerve regrowth and myelin repair. To improve ADSC efficacy, strategies including genetic modification and combination with rehabilitation are being explored. Early clinical trials have shown safety and feasibility, with some suggesting motor and sensory function improvements. Challenges remain for clinical translation, including optimizing cell survival and delivery, determining dosing, addressing tumor formation risks, and establishing standardized protocols. Future research should focus on overcoming these challenges and exploring the potential for combining ADSC therapy with other treatments, including rehabilitation and medication.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) is the most common chronic morbidity in extremely preterm infants. Mesenchymal stem cells-derived exosomes (MSC-Exos) therapies have shown prospects in animal models of BPD. Our study aimed to evaluate the effect of adipose mesenchymal stem cells-derived exosomes (AMSC-Exos) on BPD and the role of the NF-κB signaling pathway in this process. METHODS The AMSCs were extracted and AMSC-Exos were isolated by ultracentrifugation method. Newborn rats were exposed to hyperoxia (90% O2) continuously for 7 days to establish a BPD model. The rats were treated with AMSC-Exos by intratracheal administration on postnatal day 4 (P4). Pulmonary morphology, pulmonary vasculature, inflammatory factors, and NF-κB were assessed. Hyperoxia-induced primary type II alveolar epithelial cells (AECIIs) and AMSC-Exos treatment with or without a pan-NF-κB inhibitor (PDTC) were established to explore the potential mechanism. RESULTS Hyperoxia-exposed rats showed alveolar simplification with decreased radial alveolar count and increased mean linear intercept, low CD31, and vascular endothelial growth factor expression, reduced microvessel density, increased the expression of TNF-α, IL-1β, and IL-6 and decreased the expression of IL-10, and induced NF-κB phosphorylation. AMSC-Exos protected the neonatal lung from the hyperoxia-induced arrest of alveolar and vascular development, alleviated inflammation, and inhibited NF-κB phosphorylation. Hyperoxia decreased viability, increased apoptosis, enhanced inflammation, and induced NF-κB phosphorylation of AECIIs but improved by AMSC-Exos, PDTC, or AMSC-Exos+PDTC. The effect of AMSC-Exos+PDTC in AECIIs was the same as AMSC-Exos, but more notable than PDTC alone. CONCLUSION AMSC-Exos attenuated the hyperoxia-induced lung injury in neonatal rats by inhibiting the NF-κB signaling pathway partly.

BACKGROUND Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) is a highly prevalent disease and poses a significant risk to the health of pregnant women. Abdominal adipose tissue (AT) contributes to insulin resistance (IR) associated with GDM. However, the underlying mechanisms remain unclear. METHODS In this study, we developed a mouse model of GDM by subjecting mice to a high-fat diet. We collected adipose-derived stem cells (ADSCs) from the abdominal and inguinal regions and examined their role in inducing IR in normal tissues through the secretion of small extracellular vesicles (sEVs). The sEVs derived from ADSCs isolated from GDM mice (ADSC/GDM) were found to inhibit cell viability and insulin sensitivity in AML12, a normal mouse liver cell line. RESULTS Through proteomic analysis, we identified high levels of the thrombospondin 1 (Thbs1) protein in the sEVs derived from ADSC/GDM. Subsequent overexpression of Thbs1 protein in AML12 cells demonstrated similar IR as observed with ADSC/GDM-derived sEVs. Mechanistically, the Thbs1 protein within the sEVs interacted with CD36 and transforming growth factor (Tgf) β receptors in AML12 cells, leading to the activation of Tgfβ/Smad2 signaling. Furthermore, the administration of LSKL, an antagonistic peptide targeting Thbs1, suppressed Thbs1 expression in ADSC/GDM-derived sEVs, thereby restoring insulin sensitivity in AML12 cells and GDM mice in vivo. CONCLUSIONS These findings shed light on the intercellular transmission mechanism through which ADSCs influence hepatic insulin sensitivity and underscore the therapeutic potential of targeting the Thbs1 protein within sEVs.

Front Bioeng Biotechnol 2024; 12:1349050.

Abstract
Diabetic neuropathy affects nearly half of all diabetics and poses a significant threat to public health. Recent preclinical studies suggest that mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) may represent a promising solution for the treatment of diabetic neuropathy. However, an objective assessment of the preclinical effectiveness of MSCs is still pending. We conducted a comprehensive search of PubMed, Web of Science, Embase, and Cochrane library to identify preclinical studies that investigate the effects of MSCs on diabetic neuropathy up until 15 September 2023. Outcome indicators consisted of motor and sensory nerve conduction velocities, intra-epidermal nerve fiber density, sciatic nerve blood flow, capillary-to-muscle fiber ratio, neurotrophic factors, angiogenic factors and inflammatory cytokines. The literature review and meta-analysis were conducted independently by two researchers. 23 studies that met the inclusion criteria were included in this system review for qualitative and quantitative analysis. Pooled analyses indicated that MSCs exhibited an evident benefit in diabetic neuropathy in terms of motor (SMD = 2.16, 95% CI: 1.71-2.61) and sensory nerve conduction velocities (SMD = 2.93, 95% CI: 1.78-4.07), intra-epidermal nerve fiber density (SMD = 3.17, 95% CI: 2.28-4.07), sciatic nerve blood flow (SMD = 2.02, 95% CI: 1.37-2.66), and capillary-to-muscle fiber ratio (SMD = 2.28, 95% CI: 1.55 to 3.01, p < 0.00001). Furthermore, after MSC therapy, the expressions of neurotrophic and angiogenic factors increased significantly in most studies, while the levels of inflammatory cytokines were significantly reduced. The relevance of this review relies on the fact that summarizes an extensive body of work entailing substantial preclinical evidence that supports the efficacy of MSCs in mitigating diabetic neuropathy. While MSCs emerge as a promising potential treatment for diabetic neuropathy, further research is essential to elucidate the underlying mechanisms and the best administration strategy for MSCs.

Abstract
Wounds are breaks in the continuity of the skin and underlying tissues, resulting from external causes such as cuts, blows, impacts, or surgical interventions. Countless individuals suffer minor to severe injuries, with unfortunate cases even leading to death. In today's scenario, several commercial products are available to facilitate the healing process of wounds, although chronic wounds still present more challenges than acute wounds. Nevertheless, the huge demand for wound-care products within the healthcare sector has given rise to a rapidly growing market, fostering continuous research and development endeavors for innovative wound-healing solutions. Today, there are many commercially available products including those based on natural biopolymers, stem cells, and microRNAs that promote healing from wounds. This article explores the recent breakthroughs in wound-healing products that harness the potential of natural biopolymers, stem cells, and microRNAs. A comprehensive exploration is undertaken, covering not only commercially available products but also those still in the research phase. Additionally, we provide a thorough examination of the opportunities, obstacles, and regulatory considerations influencing the potential commercialization of wound-healing products across the diverse markets of Europe, America, and Asia.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Adipose stromal cells (ASC) are a form of mesenchymal stromal cells that elicit effects primarily via secreted factors, which may have advantages for the treatment of injury or disease. Several previous studies have demonstrated a protective role for MSC/ASC on mitigating acute kidney injury but whether ASC derived factors could hasten recovery from established injury has not been evaluated. METHODS We generated a concentrated secretome (CS) of human ASC under well-defined conditions and evaluated its ability to improve the recovery of renal function in a preclinical model of acute kidney injury (AKI) in rats. 24 h following bilateral ischemia/reperfusion (I/R), rats were randomized following determination of plasma creatinine into groups receiving vehicle -control or ASC-CS treatment by subcutaneous injection (2 mg protein/kg) and monitored for evaluation of renal function, structure and inflammation. RESULTS Renal function, assessed by plasma creatinine levels, recovered faster in ASC-CS treated rats vs vehicle. The most prominent difference between the ASC-CS treated vs vehicle was observed in rats with the most severe degree of initial injury (Pcr > 3.0 mg/dl 24 h post I/R), whereas rats with less severe injury (Pcr < 2.9 mg/dl) recovered quickly regardless of treatment. The quicker recovery of ASC-treated rats with severe injury was associated with less tissue damage, inflammation, and lower plasma angiopoietin 2. In vitro, ASC-CS attenuated the activation of the Th17 phenotype in lymphocytes isolated from injured kidneys. CONCLUSIONS Taken together, these data suggest that ASC-CS represents a potent therapeutic option to improve established AKI.

Abstract
The skin is the outer layer of the human body, and it is crucial in defending against injuries and damage. The regenerative capacity of aging and damaged skin caused by exposure to external stimuli is significantly impaired. Currently, the rise in average life expectancy and the modern population's aesthetic standards have sparked a desire for stem-cell-based therapies that can address skin health conditions. In recent years, mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) as therapeutic agents have provided a promising and effective alternative for managing skin regeneration and rejuvenation, attributing to their healing capacities that can be applied to damaged and aged skin. However, it has been established that the therapeutic effects of MSC may be primarily mediated by paracrine mechanisms, particularly the release of exosomes (Exos). Exosomes are nanoscale extracellular vesicles (EVs) that have lipid bilayer and membrane structures and can be naturally released by different types of cells. They influence the physiological and pathological processes of recipient cells by transferring a variety of bioactive molecules, including lipids, proteins, and nucleic acids such as messenger RNAs (mRNAs) and microRNAs (miRNAs) between cells, thus playing an important role in intercellular communication and activating signaling pathways in target cells. Among them, miRNAs, a type of endogenous regulatory non-coding RNA, are often incorporated into exosomes as important signaling molecules regulating protein biosynthesis. Emerging evidence suggests that exosomal miRNAs from MSC play a key role in skin regeneration and rejuvenation by targeting multiple genes and regulating various biological processes, such as participating in inflammatory responses, cell migration, proliferation, and apoptosis. In this review, we summarize the recent studies and observations on how MSC-derived exosomal miRNAs contribute to the regeneration and rejuvenation of skin tissue, with particular attention to the applications of bioengineering methods for manipulating the miRNA content of exosome cargo to improve their therapeutic potential. This review can provide new clues for the diagnosis and treatment of skin damage and aging, as well as assist investigators in exploring innovative therapeutic strategies for treating a multitude of skin problems with the aim of delaying skin aging, promoting skin regeneration, and maintaining healthy skin.

Abstract
The primary role of adipose tissue stem cells (ADSCs) is to support the function and homeostasis of adipose tissue in physiological and pathophysiological conditions. However, when ADSCs become dysfunctional in diseases such as obesity and cancer, they become impaired, undergo signalling changes, and their epigenome is altered, which can have a dramatic effect on human health. In more recent years, the therapeutic potential of ADSCs in regenerative medicine, wound healing, and for treating conditions such as cancer and metabolic diseases has been extensively investigated with very promising results. ADSCs have also been used to generate two-dimensional (2D) and three-dimensional (3D) cellular and in vivo models to study adipose tissue biology and function as well as intracellular communication. Characterising the biology and function of ADSCs, how it is altered in health and disease, and its therapeutic potential and uses in cellular models is key for designing intervention strategies for complex metabolic diseases and cancer.

Abstract
Critical limb ischemia (CLI) is a devastating disease characterized by the progressive blockage of blood vessels. Although the paracrine effect of growth factors in stem cell therapy made it a promising angiogenic therapy for CLI, poor cell survival in the harsh ischemic microenvironment limited its efficacy. Thus, an imperative need exists for a stem-cell delivery method that enhances cell survival. Here, a collagen microgel (CMG) cell-delivery scaffold (40 × 20 μm) was fabricated via micro-fragmentation from collagen-hyaluronic acid polyionic complex to improve transplantation efficiency. Culturing human adipose-derived stem cells (hASCs) with CMG enabled integrin receptors to interact with CMG to form injectable 3-dimensional constructs (CMG-hASCs) with a microporous microarchitecture and enhanced mass transfer. CMG-hASCs exhibited higher cell survival (p < 0.0001) and angiogenic potential in tube formation and aortic ring angiogenesis assays than cell aggregates. Injection of CMG-hASCs intramuscularly into CLI mice increased blood perfusion and limb salvage ratios by 40 % and 60 %, respectively, compared to cell aggregate-treated mice. Further immunofluorescent analysis revealed that transplanted CMG-hASCs have greater muscle regenerative and angiogenic potential, with enhanced cell survival than cell aggregates (p < 0.05). Collectively, we propose CMG as a cell-assembling platform and CMG-hASCs as promising therapeutics to treat CLI.

Abstract
Introduction Canine adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells (cAD-MSCs) hold therapeutic promise due to their regenerative potential, particularly within their secretome. However, concerns arise regarding the impact of in vitro cultivation necessitated for storing therapeutic doses, prompting this study to comprehensively explore the impact of in vitro aging on gene expression and secretome composition. Methods The study involved collecting abdominal adipose tissue samples from nine healthy female dogs, from which cAD-MSCs were extracted and cultured. Stem cells were validated through trilineage differentiation assays and flow cytometry immunophenotyping. Gene expression profiling using RT-qPCR array, and cAD-MSCs secretome LC-MS/MS analysis, were conducted at passages 3 and 6 to reveal gene expression and protein composition alterations during in vitro culture. Results and Discussion The results demonstrate that the gene expression and secretome composition of cAD-MSCs were impacted by in vitro aging. Among many alterations in gene expression between two passages, two significant downregulations were noted in the MSC-associated PTPRC and IL10 genes. While the majority of proteins and their functional characteristics were shared between passages, the influence of cell aging on secretome composition is highlighted by 10% of proteins being distinctively expressed in each passage, along with 21 significant up- and downregulations. The functional attributes of proteins detected in passage 3 demonstrated a greater inclination towards supporting the regenerative capacity of cAD-MSCs. Moreover, proteins in passage 6 exhibited a noteworthy correlation with the blood coagulation pathway, suggesting an elevated likelihood of coagulation events. To the best of our knowledge, this study presents the first original perspective on the changes in secretome composition that occur when cAD-MSCs age in vitro. Furthermore, it contributes to broadening the currently restricted knowledge base concerning the secretome of cAD-MSCs. In conclusion, our findings show that the regenerative potential of cAD-MSCs, as well as their secretome, may be compromised by in vitro aging. Therefore, our study suggests a preference for earlier passages when considering these cells for therapeutic applications.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Periodontitis is characterized by alveolar bone injury and absorption, with high incidence and poor treatment effect. Proliferation, migration, differentiation and apoptosis of osteoblasts are identified as key factors during the regeneration of alveolar bone tissue processes. Periodontal ligament stem cells (PDLSCs) have been proved to be a possible candidate for the treatment of periodontitis due to its multiple advantages, such as increasing the regenerative capacity of bone tissue. However, the effect of exosomes derived from PDLSCs (PDLSC-Exo) on osteoblasts remains to be further studied. METHODS AND MATERIALS In this work, cell proliferation, migration, osteogenic differentiation, and H2 O2 -induced apoptosis were detected after cells were exposed to PDLSC-Exo by CCK-8, scratch wound assay, alizarin red S and alkaline phosphatase staining, real-time PCR, flow cytometry, tunel assay, and so on. Moreover, the activation of PI3K/AKT and MEK/ERK signaling pathways was evaluated by western blotting. RESULTS We found that PDLSC-Exo are capable of promoting hFOB1.19 cell proliferation, migration and osteogenic differentiation, inhibiting H2 O2 -induced apoptosis, and activating the PI3K/AKT and MEK/ERK signaling pathways. CONCLUSION These results suggest that PDLSC-Exo may be a promising therapeutic for osteoblastic damage.

Electromagnetic field (50 Hz) enhance metabolic potential and induce adaptive/reprogramming response mediated by the increase of N6-methyladenosine RNA methylation in adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells in vitro. Toxicol In Vitro 2024; 95:105743. [PMID: 38040129 DOI: 10.1016/j.tiv.2023.105743] [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: 04/26/2023] [Revised: 11/08/2023] [Accepted: 11/24/2023] [Indexed: 12/03/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Electromagnetic fields (EMF) have an impact on numerous cellular processes. It can positively and negatively affect adipose-derived stem cells (ASCs) thus their fate through the influence of specific factors and protein secretion. EMF can be a great factor for preconditioning ASCs for regenerative medicine purposes, however, understanding the cell's biological response to its effects in vitro is essential. METHODS ASCs were exposed to the EMF (50 Hz; 1.5 mT) for 24 and 48 h, and then cell biological response was analyzed. RESULTS 24 h exposure of ASCs to EMF, significantly increased N6-methyladenosine (m6A) RNA methylation, indicating epitranscriptomic changes as an important factor in ASCs preconditioning. Furthermore, the expression of stem cell markers such as Nanog, Oct-4, Sox-2, CD44, and CD105 increased after 24 h of EMF exposure. Besides, western blot analysis showed upregulation of p21 and DNMT2/TRDMT1 protein levels compared to control cells with no differences in the p53 profile. Moreover, after 24 h of exposure to EMF, cell membrane flexibility, the metabolic potential of cells as well as the distribution, morphology, and metabolism of mitochondria were altered. CONCLUSION ASCs undergo a process of mobilization and adaptation under the EMF influence through the increased m6A RNA modifications. These conditions may "force" ASCs to redefine their stem cell fate mediated by RNA-modifying enzymes and alter their reprogramming decision of as differentiation begins.

Abstract
Lipofilling is an option for breast reconstruction after tumor resection to avoid the complications of an implant-based reconstruction. Although some concerns exist regarding the oncological safety of tissue rich in mesenchymal stem cells with their proangiogenic and proliferation-supportive properties, there are also reports that adipose-tissue-derived stem cells can exhibit antitumoral properties. We isolated primary adipose-tissue-derived stem cells. Both conditioned medium and exosomes were harvested from the cell culture and used to treat the breast cancer cell line MCF-7. Cell viability, cytotoxicity, and gene expression of MCF-7 cells in response to the indirect co-culture were evaluated. MCF-7 cells incubated with exosomes from adipose-tissue-derived stem cells show reduced cell viability in comparison to MCF-7 cells incubated with adipose-tissue-derived stem-cell-conditioned medium. Expression of proapoptotic genes was upregulated, and expression of antiapoptotic genes was downregulated. The debate about the oncological safety of autologous fat grafting after tumor resection continues. Here, we show that exosomes from adipose-tissue-derived stem cells exhibit some antitumoral properties on breast cancer cell line MCF-7.

Abstract
Regenerative medicine (RM) has emerged as a promising and revolutionary solution to address a range of unmet needs in healthcare, including ophthalmology. Moreover, RM takes advantage of the body's innate ability to repair and replace pathologically affected tissues. On the other hand, despite its immense promise, RM faces challenges such as ethical concerns, host-related immune responses, and the need for additional scientific validation, among others. The primary aim of this review is to present a high-level overview of current strategies in the domain of RM (cell therapy, exosomes, scaffolds, in vivo reprogramming, organoids, and interspecies chimerism), centering around the field of ophthalmology. A search conducted on clinicaltrials.gov unveiled a total of at least 209 interventional trials related to RM within the ophthalmological field. Among these trials, there were numerous early-phase studies, including phase I, I/II, II, II/III, and III trials. Many of these studies demonstrate potential in addressing previously challenging and degenerative eye conditions, spanning from posterior segment pathologies like Age-related Macular Degeneration and Retinitis Pigmentosa to anterior structure diseases such as Dry Eye Disease and Limbal Stem Cell Deficiency. Notably, these therapeutic approaches offer tailored solutions specific to the underlying causes of each pathology, thus allowing for the hopeful possibility of bringing forth a treatment for ocular diseases that previously seemed incurable and significantly enhancing patients' quality of life. As advancements in research and technology continue to unfold, future objectives should focus on ensuring the safety and prolonged viability of transplanted cells, devising efficient delivery techniques, etc.

Abstract
Autologous fat grafting represents a reconstructive technique but is limited by unstable graft retention. Based on existing reports and bioinformatics prediction, we hypothesized that delivering exosomes from human adipose-derived stem/stromal cells (hADSC-Exo) would increase fat graft survival and further explore the mechanism. hADSC-Exo were extracted and identified. An autologous fat grafting model was established using donor and recipient mice, followed by hADSC-Exo treatment. hADSC-Exo promoted the retention of autologous fat grafts in mice, along with increased adipocyte activity, angiogenesis, and decreased inflammation in grafts. Moreover, hADSC-Exo potentiated the adipose differentiation of 3T3-L1 cells, enhanced the angiogenic and migratory capacity of human umbilical vein endothelial cells, and inhibited the inflammation and viability of RAW 264.7 cells. The therapeutic effect of hADSC-Exo on fat grafting was associated with the delivery of microRNA (miR)-423-5p. Deletion of miR-423-5p in Exo impaired the function of hADSC-Exo on fat retention. miR-423-5p bound to DVL3 to suppress DVL3 expression, and DVL3 deletion promoted adipose differentiation of 3T3-L1 cells. In conclusion, our findings further widen the theoretical basis of the clinical application of hADSC-Exo in autologous fat grafts.

Evaluation of the therapeutic potential of infrapatellar fat pad adipose-derived stem cells and their secretome for regenerating knee articular cartilage in a rat model of osteoarthritis. IRANIAN JOURNAL OF VETERINARY RESEARCH 2024; 25:33-40.

Abstract
Background Mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) therapy has ameliorative effects for treating knee osteoarthritis (KOA) disease. Moreover, there is a growing interest in using MSCs-derived secretome (Sec) containing trophic factors secreted by MSCs for KOA treatment. Recently, some studies have suggested that the combination of MSCs and Sec has the potential to treat the diseases. Aims This study aimed to evaluate the ameliorative effects of combined administration of infrapatellar fat pad (IPFP)-derived MSCs, a type of adipose-derived stem cells (ASCs), for treating degenerated cartilage in a rat model of KOA. Methods IPFP-ASCs were isolated from the IPFP of male rats. Sec was obtained from IPFP-ASCs in the fourth passage. Eight weeks after the induction of KOA by collagenase II, the rats were divided into 5 groups (n=5), including a control group with no treatment, and four experimental groups that received sodium hyaluronate (Hyalgan®, Hya), ASCs, Sec, and IPFP-ASCs+Sec, respectively by an infrapatellar injection. To perform the pathological and radiological evaluations, the animals were sacrificed 8 weeks later. Results Our findings indicated that combined administration of the IPFP-ASCs and Sec statistically (P<0.05) improved scores of medial tibial and femoral condyles and medial fabella osteophytes. Also, it statistically (P<0.05) enhances the cartilage surface, matrix, cell distribution and population viability, and subchondral bone indices. No statistical difference was observed between IPFP-ASCs+Sec and IPFP-ASCs. Conclusion Administration of IPFP-ASCs+Sec has a therapeutic potential to treat KOA in rats. However, there is no difference in the combined administration of IPFP-ASCs and Sec with IPFP-ASCs alone.

Abstract
Aim The relationship between ligaments and bone is a complex and heterogeneous junction involving bone, mineralized fibro cartilage, non-mineralized fibro cartilage and ligaments. Mesenchymal stem cells (MSC) can be used in vivo to control inflammation and aid in tissue repair, according to studies. This review focused on using exosomes as an alternative to MSC, as a cell-free therapy for modulating the remodelling process. Methods To conduct a systematic review of the literature, the phrases "exosome" and "ligament" or "tendon" and "extracellular vesicle" and "stem cells" were used as the search keywords in PubMed (MEDLINE), OVID, the Cochrane Library, and Science Direct. From the literature, 73 studies in all were found. Six studies were included in this systematic review after full-text evaluation. Results Six included studies covered a range of MSC types, isolation techniques, animal models, and interventions. Biomechanical results consistently indicated the beneficial impact of conditioned media, vesicles, and exosomes on treating tendons and ligaments. Noteworthy findings were the reduction of inflammation by iMSC-IEVs, chondrocyte protection by iPSC-EVs (extracellular vesicles generated by inflammation-primed adipose-derived stem cells), osteolysis treatment using DPSC-sEVs (small extracellular vesicles derived from dental pulp stem cells), and the contribution of exosome-educated macrophages to ligament injury wound healing. Conclusion Exosomes may serve as a cell-free therapeutic substitute for modulating the remodelling process, particularly in ligament healing.

Abstract
Diabetes mellitus, as an important metabolic disorder, affects the health of millions of people worldwide. A diabetic wound is one of the complications of diabetes. The stem cell secretome can particularly affect the wound healing process in diabetic wounds. The present study aimed to investigate the effects of Adipose-derived stem cells (ASCs) secretome on the skin wound healing process, angiogenesis, and inflammation in diabetic rats. For this purpose, ASCs were extracted from Adipose tissue and confirmed by flow cytometry and cell differentiation. Secretome was prepared. 27 rats were divided into three groups, non-diabetic, diabetic (treated with phosphate-buffered saline), and diabetics treated with secretome. The levels of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-β) were examined by the enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was performed in the skin tissues of all groups. Hematoxylin and eosin (H&E) staining was performed. The level of VEGF was higher in the diabetic group treated with secretome as compared to the other two groups, while the level of TGF-β was lower in this group, compared to the diabetic group. Based on the results of H&E staining, the epidermal thickness and angiogenesis were higher in the diabetic group treated with secretome, whereas edema, number of inflammatory cells, and epidermal damage were lower in this group, compared to the diabetic group. Subcutaneous injection of secretome can lead to diabetic wound healing by increasing growth factors associated with angiogenesis such as VEGF, increasing angiogenesis, regulating TGF-β levels, reducing inflammatory cells.

Abstract
Objectives Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a complex metabolic disease that results from impaired insulin secreting pancreatic β-cells or insulin resistance. Although available medications help control the disease, patients suffer from its complications. Therefore, finding effective therapeutic approaches to treat DM is a priority. Adipose Derived Stem Cells (ADSCs) based therapy is a promising strategy in various regenerative medicine applications, but its systematic translational use is still somewhat out of reach. This review is aimed at clarifying achievements as well as challenges facing the application of ADSCs for the treatment of DM, with a special focus on the mechanisms involved. Methods Literature searches were carried out on "Scopus", "PubMed" and "Google Scholar" up to September 2022 to find relevant articles in the English language for the scope of this review. Results Recent evidence showed a significant role of ADSC therapies in DM by ameliorating insulin resistance and hyperglycemia, regulating hepatic glucose metabolism, promoting β cell function and regeneration, and functioning as a gene delivery tool. In addition, ADSCs could improve diabetic wound healing by promoting collagen deposition, inhibiting inflammation, and enhancing angiogenesis. Conclusion Overall, this literature review revealed the great clinical implications of ADSCs for translating into the clinical setting for the treatment of diabetes. However, further large-scale and controlled studies are needed to overcome challenges and confirm the safety and optimal therapeutic scheme before daily clinical application.

Abstract
Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) have been seen for years as great candidates for treating different diseases and an alternative to embryonic stem cells due to their differentiation capacity in vitro. More recent research has focused on their ability to modulate the immune response and regeneration at sites associated with inflammation, activities attributable to the release of trophic factors into the extracellular medium, a set of components known as the secretome. It has been possible to demonstrate the presence of these cells within the tumor microenvironment, which is associated with their tropism for sites of inflammation; however, their role here needs to be clarified. In different investigations, the feasibility of using MSCs or their secretome to treat cancer has been sought, with these results being ambiguous. It has been described that MSCs can be activated and present various phenotypes, which could explain the divergence in their action; however, these activation mechanisms and the different phenotypes still need to be well known. This review explores MSCs and their use in regenerative medicine with a targeted approach to cancer. Impact Statement This text addresses the diverging findings on the role of mesenchymal stem cells in the tumor microenvironment and discrepancies on the use of these cells as cancer treatment, separating the direct use of the cells from the use of the secretome. Multiple authors refer equally to the cells and their secretome to conclude on the positive or negative outcome, without taking into consideration how the cells are affected by their surroundings.

Abstract
Intra-portal islet transplantation is currently the only clinically approved beta cell replacement therapy, but its outcome is hindered by limited cell survival due to a multifactorial reaction against the allogeneic tissue in liver. Adipose-derived stromal cells (ASCs) can potentially improve the islet micro-environment by their immunomodulatory action. The challenge is to combine both islets and ASCs in a relatively easy and consistent long-term manner in a deliverable scaffold. Manufacturing the 3D bioprinted double-layered scaffolds with primary islets and ASCs using a mix of alginate/nanofibrillated cellulose (NFC) bioink is reported. The diffusion properties of the bioink and the supportive effect of human ASCs on islet viability, glucose sensing, insulin secretion, and reducing the secretion of pro-inflammatory cytokines are demonstrated. Diabetic mice transplanted with islet-ASC scaffolds reach normoglycemia seven days post-transplantation with no significant difference between this group and the group received islets under the kidney capsules. In addition, animals transplanted with islet-ASC scaffolds stay normoglycemic and show elevated levels of C-peptide compared to mice transplanted with islet-only scaffolds. The data present a functional 3D bioprinted scaffold for islets and ASCs transplanted to the extrahepatic site and suggest a possible role of ASCs on improving the islet micro-environment.

Abstract
Critical limb ischemia incidence and prevalence have increased over the years. However, there are no successful treatments to improve quality of life and to reduce the risk of cardiovascular and limb events in these patients. Advanced regenerative therapies have focused their interest on the generation of new blood vessels to repair tissue damage through the use of stem cells. One of the most promising sources of stem cells with high potential in cell-based therapy is adipose-derived stem cells (ASCs). ASCs are adult mesenchymal stem cells that are relatively abundant and ubiquitous and are characterized by a multilineage capacity and low immunogenicity. The proangiogenic benefits of ASCs may be ascribed to: (a) paracrine secretion of proangiogenic molecules that may stimulate angiogenesis; (b) secretion of microvesicles/exosomes that are also considered as a novel therapeutic prospect for treating ischemic diseases; and (c) their differentiation capability toward endothelial cells (ECs). Although we know the proangiogenic effects of ASCs, the therapeutic efficacy of ASCs after transplantation in peripheral artery diseases patients is still relatively low. In this review, we evidence the potential therapeutic use of ASCs in ischemic regenerative medicine. We also highlight the main challenges in the differentiation of these cells into functional ECs. However, significant efforts are still needed to ascertain relevant transcription factors, intracellular signaling and interlinking pathways in endothelial differentiation.

Abstract
Purpose Human corneal endothelial cells (hCECs) have been considered unable to regenerate in vivo, resulting in corneal decompensation after significant loss of hCECs. adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cell (ASC)-derived exosomes can regenerate tissues and organs. In this study, we investigated whether ASC-derived exosomes could protect and regenerate CECs. Methods We performed cell viability and cell-cycle analyses to evaluate the effect of ASC-derived exosomes on the regeneration capacity of cultured hCECs. Transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β) and hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) were used to induce biological stress in CECs. The effect of ASC-derived exosomes on CECs was investigated in vivo. ASC-derived exosomes were introduced into rat CECs using electroporation, and rat corneas were injured using cryoinjury. Next-generation sequencing analysis was performed to compare the differentially expressed microRNAs (miRNAs) between ASC-derived and hCEC-derived exosomes. Results ASC-derived exosomes induced CEC proliferation and suppressed TGF-β- or H2O2-induced oxidative stress and senescence. ASC-derived exosomes protect hCECs against TGF-β- or H2O2-induced endothelial-mesenchymal transition and mitophagy. In an in vivo study, ASC-derived exosomes promoted wound healing of rat CECs and protected the corneal endothelium against cryoinjury-induced corneal endothelium damage. Next-generation sequencing analysis revealed differentially expressed miRNAs for ASC-derived and hCEC-derived exosomes. They are involved in lysine degradation, adherens junction, the TGF-β signaling pathway, the p53 signaling pathway, the Hippo signaling pathway, the forkhead box O (FoxO) signaling pathway, regulation of actin cytoskeleton, and RNA degradation based on Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathway analysis. Conclusions ASC-derived exosomes promoted wound healing and regeneration of endothelial cells by inducing a shift in the cell cycle and suppressing senescence and autophagy.

Abstract
The secretome of adipose-derived stromal cells (ASC) is a heterogeneous mixture of components with a beneficial influence on cellular microenvironments. As such, it represents a cell-free alternative in regenerative medicine therapies. Pathophysiological conditions increase the therapeutic capacity of ASC and, with this, the benefits of the secretome. Such conditions can be partially mimicked in vitro by adjusting culturing conditions. Secretomics, the unbiased analysis of a cell secretome by mass spectrometry, is a powerful tool to describe the composition of ASC secretomes. In this proteomics databases review, we compared ASC secretomic studies to retrieve persistently reported proteins resulting from the most explored types of culturing conditions used in research, i.e., exposure to normoxia, hypoxia, or cytokines. Our comparisons identified only eight common proteins within ASC normoxic secretomes, no commonalities within hypoxic ASC secretomes, and only nine within secretomes of ASC exposed to proinflammatory cytokines. Within these, and regardless of the culturing condition that stimulated secretion, a consistent presence of extracellular matrix-related pathways associated with such proteins was identified. Confounders such as donors' age, sex, body mass index, the anatomical area where ASC were harvested, secretome collection method, data description, and how the data is shared with the scientific community are discussed as factors that might explain our outcomes. We conclude that standardization is imperative as the currently available ASC secretomic studies do not facilitate solid conclusions on the therapeutic value of different ASC secretomes.

Abstract
Pathological cardiac hypertrophy is a considerable contributor to global disease burden. Chinese herbal medicine (CHM) has been used to treat cardiovascular diseases since antiquity. Enhancing stem cell-mediated recovery through CHM represents a promising approach for protection against doxorubicin (Dox)-induced cardiac hypertrophy. Herein, we investigated whether human adipose-derived stem cells (hADSCs) preconditioned with novel herbal formulation Jing Si (JS) improved protective ability of stem cells against doxorubicin-induced cardiac damage. The effect of JS on hADSC viability and migration capacity was determined via MTT and migration assays, respectively. Co-culture of hADSC or JS-preconditioned hADSCs with H9c2 cells was analyzed with immunoblot, flow cytometry, TUNEL staining, LC3B staining, F-actin staining, and MitoSOX staining. The in vivo study was performed M-mode echocardiography after the treatment of JS and JS-preconditioned hADSCs by using Sprague Dawley (SD) rats. Our results indicated that JS at doses below 100 μg/mL had less cytotoxicity in hADSC and JS-preconditioned hADSCs exhibited better migration. Our results also revealed that DOX enhanced apoptosis, cardiac hypertrophy, and mitochondrial reactive oxygen species in DOX-challenged H9c2 cells, while H9c2 cells co-cultured with JS-preconditioned hADSCs alleviated these effects. It also enhanced the expression of autophagy marker LC3B, mTOR and CHIP in DOX-challenged H9c2 cells after co-culture with JS-preconditioned hADSCs. In Dox-challenged rats, the ejection fraction and fractional shortening improved in DOX-challenged SD rats exposed to JS-preconditioned hADSCs. Taken together, our data indicate that JS-preconditioned stem cells exhibit a cardioprotective capacity both in vitro and in vivo, highlighting the value of this therapeutic approach for regenerative therapy.

Abstract
In recent decades, bone tissue engineering, which is supported by scaffold, seed cells and bioactive molecules (BMs), has provided new hope and direction for treating bone defects. In terms of seed cells, compared to bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells, which were widely utilized in previous years, adipose-derived stem cells (ADSCs) are becoming increasingly favored by researchers due to their abundant sources, easy availability and multi-differentiation potentials. However, there is no systematic theoretical basis for selecting appropriate biomaterials loaded with ADSCs. In this review, the regulatory effects of various biomaterials on the behavior of ADSCs are summarized from four perspectives, including biocompatibility, inflammation regulation, angiogenesis and osteogenesis, to illustrate the potential of combining various materials with ADSCs for the treatment of bone defects. In addition, we conclude the influence of additional application of various BMs on the bone repair effect of ADSCs, in order to provide more evidences and support for the selection or preparation of suitable biomaterials and BMs to work with ADSCs. More importantly, the associated clinical case reports and experiments are generalized to provide additional ideas for the clinical transformation and application of bone tissue engineering loaded with ADSCs.

Abstract
PURPOSE Cutaneous aging is an inevitable biological process that develops over time due to cumulative cellular and molecular changes caused by exposure to intrinsic (chronological aging) and extrinsic (photo-aging) factors on the skin. Skin aging is characterized by a decline in the body's capability to sustain senescence, dermal cell apoptosis, and homeostasis. Stem cell secretions (secretome) are defined as the total set of dynamically overlapping paracrine soluble growth factors, cytokines, chemokines, angiogenic factors, extracellular matrix proteins, and antimicrobial peptides known to be responsible for tissue rejuvenation, regeneration, homeostasis, and immunomodulation. METHODS In this review, we summarized the molecular and regulatory mechanism of the secretome in preventing the skin aging process, as well as its capacity in inducing skin rejuvenation. Furthermore, we illustrated secretome efficiency as an anti-aging therapeutic strategy based on in vitro and in vivo published studies. RESULTS In all reviewed publications, the secretome has been proven to be the most effective treatment for aged skin, capable of reversing the aging process through the action of cytokines, growth factors, and collagen, which are its primary components. The reported mechanism of action involves modulating the signaling pathways of aging and replenishing the skin with collagen, fibronectin, and elastin, ultimately resulting in skin renewal and rejuvenation. CONCLUSION In conclusion, compared to available treatments, the secretome shows great promise as an anti-aging therapy.

Abstract
We investigated the impacts of photobiomodulation (PBM) and human allogeneic adipose-derived stem cells (ha-ADS) together and or alone applications on the stereological parameters, immunohistochemical characterizing of M1 and M2 macrophages, and mRNA levels of hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF-1α), basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF), vascular endothelial growth factor-A (VEGF-A) and stromal cell-derived factor-1α (SDF-1α) on inflammation (day 4) and proliferation phases (day 8) of repairing tissues in an infected delayed healing and ischemic wound model (IDHIWM) in type 1 diabetic (DM1) rats. DM1 was created in 48 rats and an IDHIWM was made in all of them, and they were distributed into 4 groups. Group1 = control rats with no treatment. Group2 = rats received (10 × 100000 ha-ADS). Group3 = rats exposed to PBM (890 nm, 80 Hz, 3.46 J/cm2). Group4 = rats received both PBM and ha-ADS. On day 8, there were significantly higher neutrophils in the control group than in other groups (p < 0.01). There were substantially higher macrophages in the PBM + ha-ADS group than in other groups on days 4 and 8 (p < 0.001). Granulation tissue volume, on both days 4 and 8, was meaningfully greater in all treatment groups than in the control group (all, p = 0.000). Results of M1 and M2 macrophage counts of repairing tissue in the entire treatment groups were considered preferable to those in the control group (p < 0.05). Regarding stereological and macrophage phenotyping, the results of the PBM + ha-ADS group were better than the ha-ADS and PBM groups. Results of the tested gene expression of repairing tissue on inflammation and proliferation steps in PBM and PBM + ha-ADS groups were meaningfully better than the control and ha-ADS groups (p < 0.05). We showed that PBM, ha-ADS, and PBM plus ha-ADS, hastened the proliferation step of healing in an IDHIWM in rats with DM1 by regulation of the inflammatory reaction, macrophage phenotyping, and augmented granulation tissue formation. In addition PBM and PBM plus ha-ADS protocols hastened and increased mRNA levels of HIF-1α, bFGF, SDF-1α, and VEGF-A. Totally, in terms of stereological and immuno-histological tests, and also gene expression HIF-1α and VEGF-A, the results of PBM + ha-ADS were superior (additive) to PBM, and ha-ADS alone treatments.

Abstract
Over the last decade, adipose-derived stem cells (ADSCs) have attracted increasing attention in the field of regenerative medicine. ADSCs appear to be the most advantageous cell type for regenerative therapies owing to their easy accessibility, multipotency, and active paracrine activity. This review highlights current challenges in translating ADSC-based therapies into clinical settings and discusses novel strategies to overcome the limitations of ADSCs. To further establish ADSC-based therapies as an emerging platform for regenerative medicine, this review also provides an update on the advancements in this field, including fat grafting, wound healing, bone regeneration, skeletal muscle repair, tendon reconstruction, cartilage regeneration, cardiac repair, and nerve regeneration. ADSC-based therapies are expected to be more tissue-specific and increasingly important in regenerative medicine.

Methylglyoxal Impairs the Pro-Angiogenic Ability of Mouse Adipose-Derived Stem Cells (mADSCs) via a Senescence-Associated Mechanism. Cells 2023; 12:1741. [PMID: 37443775 PMCID: PMC10340470 DOI: 10.3390/cells12131741] [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: 04/21/2023] [Revised: 06/23/2023] [Accepted: 06/26/2023] [Indexed: 07/15/2023] Open
Abstract
Adipose-derived stem cells (ADSCs) play a crucial role in angiogenesis and repair of damaged tissues. However, in pathological conditions including diabetes, ADSC function is compromised. This work aims at evaluating the effect of Methylglyoxal (MGO), a product of chronic hyperglycemia, on mouse ADSCs' (mADSCs) pro-angiogenic function and the molecular mediators involved. The mADSCs were isolated from C57bl6 mice. MGO-adducts and p-p38 MAPK protein levels were evaluated by Western Blot. Human retinal endothelial cell (hREC) migration was analyzed by transwell assays. Gene expression was measured by qRT-PCR, and SA-βGal activity by cytofluorimetry. Soluble factor release was evaluated by multiplex assay. MGO treatment does not impair mADSC viability and induces MGO-adduct accumulation. hREC migration is reduced in response to both MGO-treated mADSCs and conditioned media from MGO-treated mADSCs, compared to untreated cells. This is associated with an increase of SA-βGal activity, SASP factor release and p53 and p21 expression, together with a VEGF- and PDGF-reduced release from MGO-treated mADSCs and a reduced p38-MAPK activation in hRECs. The MGO-induced impairment of mADSC function is reverted by senolytics. In conclusion, MGO impairs mADSCs' pro-angiogenic function through the induction of a senescent phenotype, associated with the reduced secretion of growth factors crucial for hREC migration.

Effects of Autologous Microfragmented Adipose Tissue on Healing of Tibial Plateau Levelling Osteotomies in Dogs: A Prospective Clinical Trial. Animals (Basel) 2023; 13:2084. [PMID: 37443881 DOI: 10.3390/ani13132084] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/02/2023] [Revised: 06/20/2023] [Accepted: 06/21/2023] [Indexed: 07/15/2023] Open
Abstract
The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of autologous microfragmented adipose tissue (MFAT) applied after mechanical fragmentation and assess these effects radiographically in bone healing in dogs subjected to tibial plateau levelling osteotomy (TPLO). Twenty dogs with unilateral cranial cruciate ligament disease were enrolled and randomly assigned to the treatment group (MFAT) or the control group (NT). The MFAT group underwent TPLO and autologous MFAT intra-articular administration, while the NT group underwent TPLO alone. Adipose tissue was collected from the thigh region, and MFAT was obtained by mechanical fragmentation at the end of the surgery. The patients were subjected to X-ray examination preoperatively, immediately postoperatively (T0), and at 4 (T1) and 8 (T2) weeks postoperatively. Two radiographic scores that had previously been described for the evaluation of bone healing after TPLO were used. A 12-point scoring system (from 0 = no healing to 12 = complete remodelling) was used at T0, T1, and T2, while a 5-point scoring system (from 0 = no healing to 4 = 76-100% of healing) was used at T1 and T2. The median healing scores were significantly higher at T1 and T2 for the MFAT group compared with the NT group for the 12-point (p < 0.05) and 5-point (p < 0.05) scoring systems. The intra-articular injection of autologous microfragmented adipose tissue can accelerate bone healing after TPLO without complications.

FRONTIERS IN MEDICAL TECHNOLOGY 2023; 5:1194314. [PMID: 37378005 PMCID: PMC10291509 DOI: 10.3389/fmedt.2023.1194314] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/27/2023] [Accepted: 05/26/2023] [Indexed: 06/29/2023] Open
Abstract
Introduction Wound healing consists of a dynamic series of events that are highly dependent on paracrine factors for proper progression through the phases of wound healing. Inappropriate progression through the phases is associated with insufficient epidermal regeneration (i.e., re-epithelialization) of wounds and subsequent propagation of chronic wounds, such as diabetic ulcers, which are associated with increased patient morbidity. Recently, investigation into the dynamic secretome of Adipose-derived Mesenchymal Stem Cells (ASCs), have shown promise in augmenting the wound healing response of chronic diabetic wounds. However, currently utilized 2D culture techniques are known to drastically alter the regenerative phenotype of ASCs. In this study a novel tissue-mimetic 3D system was utilized as a means to culture ASCs. Methods The capacity for the ASC secretome to augment epidermal regeneration activity was then evaluated after exposure of ASCs to "wound priming stimuli" in 2D and 3D. The priming stimuli consisted of coating the 2D and 3D systems with the wound matrix proteins, collagen type I, fibronectin, and fibrin. To understand the potential benefit of the ASC secretome in the context of diabetic wounds, keratinocytes (KCs) were exposed to super-physiological glucose levels to induce a diabetic-like phenotype (idKCs). Results Relative to KCs, idKC exhibited a 52% and 23% decline in proliferation and migration, respectively. Subsequently, analyses of the ASC secretome were performed. ASC conditioned media (ASC-CM) from tissue-mimetic culture demonstrated a > 50% increase secretion of proteins and a 2-fold increase in secreted EVs, relative to 2D culture. Interestingly, the different priming stimuli did not alter the total amount of protein or EVs secreted within the tissue-mimetic system. However, evaluation of specific soluble proteins via ELISA revealed significant differences in key epidermal regeneration factors, such as EGF, IGF-1, FGF-2, MMP-1, TIMP-1, and TGFβ-1. Additionally, the relative effect of ASC-EVs from the 2D and 3D system on idKCs epidermal regeneration functionality varied significantly, with EVs from 3D-Collagen culture providing the most significant benefit on idKC activity. Discussion Together, these data support the utilization of tissue-mimetic culture system to enhance the adaptability and secretory activity of MSC-like populations in order to generate tailored biologics, via priming stimuli, for specific wound healing applications.

Abstract
AbstractDiabetes mellitus (DM) is a set of metabolic diseases defined by a persistently high blood sugar level. Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are a novel potential therapeutic intervention in treatments of various diseases, which is also referred to as regenerative medicine. We aimed to compare the pro-inflammatory cytokines’ levels during bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BM-MSCs) transplantation in rats with induced type I (T1D) and type II diabetes (T2D). Thirty-five male Sprague dawley rats were divided into: Group I: the healthy control group, group II: untreated rats with streptozotocin (STZ)-induced T1D (65 mg/kg), group III: BM-MSCs treated rats with STZ-induced T1D, group IV: untreated rats with high-fat diet (HFD)/STZ-induced T2D (40 mg/kg), group V: BM-MSCs-treated rats with HFD/STZ-induced T2D. Biochemical, histopathological and immunohistochemical studies were applied. Our results showed that transplantation reduced hyperglycemia and increased insulin levels in both induced T1D and T2D. Also, reductions in the levels of inflammatory markers were noticed after transplantation that was coincided with nuclear factor-kappa B (NF-кB) immunohistochemical results; which showed negative or moderate cytoplasmic reactivity in treated groups III and V. These results indicated the ability of BM-MSCs transplantation to modulate the pro-inflammatory cytokine profile during treatment of both T1D and T2D.

Abstract
A diabetic wound is one of the major complications of Diabetes mellitus. Considering the impact of these wounds on the health and quality of life of diabetic patients, the need for a suitable treatment is essential. Adipose-derived stem cells (ASCs) play a role in healing diabetic wounds. The purpose of this study is to examine the effect of ASCs on skin wound healing in diabetic rats. Rats were divided into three groups, diabetics treated with ASCs, non-diabetic, and diabetic (treated with phosphate-buffered saline). Skin wounds and its margin were examined to measure the level of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-β) and histopathological examinations on three, six, and nine days after wound formation and treatment. As a result, the administration of ASCs can reduce the healing time of skin wounds in diabetic rats by controlling inflammation and increasing angiogenesis.

Photobiomodulation Therapy Improves Inflammatory Responses by Modifying Stereological Parameters, microRNA-21 and FGF2 Expression. J Lasers Med Sci 2023; 14:e16. [PMID: 37583493 PMCID: PMC10423949 DOI: 10.34172/jlms.2023.16] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/09/2023] [Accepted: 03/13/2023] [Indexed: 08/17/2023]
Abstract
Introduction: Photobiomodulation treatment (PBMT) is a relatively invasive method for treating wounds. An appropriate type of PBMT can produce desired and directed cellular and molecular processes. The aim of this study was to investigate the impacts of PBMT on stereological factors, bacterial count, and the expression of microRNA-21 and FGF2 in an infected, ischemic, and delayed wound healing model in rats with type one diabetes mellitus. Methods: A delayed, ischemic, and infected wound was produced on the back skin of all 24 DM1 rats. Then, they were put into 4 groups at random (n=6 per group): 1=Control group day4 (CGday4); 2=Control group day 8 (CGday8); 3=PBMT group day4 (PGday4), in which the rats were exposed to PBMT and killed on day 4; 4=PBMT group day8 (PGday8), in which the rats received PBMT and they were killed on day 8. The size of the wound, the number of microbial colonies, stereological parameters, and the expression of microRNA-21 and FGF2 were all assessed in this study throughout the inflammation (day 4) and proliferation (day 8) stages of wound healing. Results: On days 4 and 8, we discovered that the PGday4 and PGday8 groups significantly improved stereological parameters in comparison with the same CG groups. In terms of ulcer area size and microbiological counts, the PGday4 and PGday8 groups performed much better than the same CG groups. Simultaneously, the biomechanical findings in the PGday4 and PGday8 groups were much more extensive than those in the same CG groups. On days 4 and 8, the expression of FGF2 and microRNA-21 was more in all PG groups than in the CG groups (P<0.01). Conclusion: PBMT significantly speeds up the repair of ischemic and MARS-infected wounds in DM1 rats by lowering microbial counts and modifying stereological parameters, microRNA-21, and FGF2 expression.
