Abstract
Osteoarthritis (OA) is a widespread clinical disease characterized by cartilage degeneration in middle-aged and elderly people. Currently, there is no effective treatment for OA apart from total joint replacement in advanced stages. Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are a type of adult stem cell with diverse differentiation capabilities and immunomodulatory potentials. MSCs are known to effectively regulate the cartilage microenvironment, promote cartilage regeneration, and alleviate OA symptoms. As a result, they are promising sources of cells for OA therapy. Recent studies have revealed the presence of resident MSCs in synovial fluid, synovial membrane, and articular cartilage, which can be collected as knee joint-derived MSCs (KJD-MSC). Several preclinical and clinical studies have demonstrated that KJD-MSCs have great potential for OA treatment, whether applied alone, in combination with biomaterials, or as exocrine MSCs. In this article, we will review the characteristics of MSCs in the joints, including their cytological characteristics, such as proliferation, cartilage differentiation, and immunomodulatory abilities, as well as the biological function of MSC exosomes. We will also discuss the use of tissue engineering in OA treatment and introduce the concept of a new generation of stem cell-based tissue engineering therapy, including the use of engineering, gene therapy, and gene editing techniques to create KJD-MSCs or KJD-MSC derivative exosomes with improved functionality and targeted delivery. These advances aim to maximize the efficiency of cartilage tissue engineering and provide new strategies to overcome the bottleneck of OA therapy. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: This research will provide new insights into the medicinal benefit of Joint resident Mesenchymal Stem Cells (MSCs), specifically on its cartilage tissue engineering ability. Through this review, the community will further realize promoting joint resident mesenchymal stem cells, especially cartilage progenitor/MSC-like progenitor cells (CPSC), as a preventive measure against osteoarthritis and cartilage injury. People and medical institutions may also consider cartilage derived MSC as an alternative approach against cartilage degeneration. Moreover, the discussion presented in this study will convey valuable information for future research that will explore the medicinal benefits of cartilage derived MSC.

The Role of Platelet-Rich Plasma on the Chondrogenic and Osteogenic Differentiation of Human Amniotic-Fluid-Derived Stem Cells. INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF ENVIRONMENTAL RESEARCH AND PUBLIC HEALTH 2022; 19:15786. [PMID: 36497861 PMCID: PMC9738099 DOI: 10.3390/ijerph192315786] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/30/2022] [Revised: 11/21/2022] [Accepted: 11/23/2022] [Indexed: 06/17/2023]
Abstract
Amniotic fluid represents a new and promising source of engraftable stem cells. The purpose of this study was to investigate the in vitro effects of platelet-rich plasma (PRP) on amniotic-fluid-derived stem cells (AFSCs) on chondrogenic or osteogenic differentiation potential. Amniotic fluid samples were obtained from women undergoing amniocentesis for prenatal diagnosis at 16-18 weeks of pregnancy. Undifferentiated human AFSCs were cocultured with PRP for 14 days. The study includes two protocols investigating the effects of activated PRP using two different methods: via freeze-thaw cycles and via the addition of calcium gluconate. On the 14th day of culturing, the differentiation potential of the cocultured AFSCs was then compared with undifferentiated AFSCs. Staining with alcian blue solution (ABS) and alizarine red solution (ARS) was performed, and chondrogenic- and osteogenic-associated genes markers were investigated. ABS demonstrated enhanced glycosaminoglycan expression. Cocultured cells expressed chondrocyte-associated genes, determined by real-time polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR), including type I collagen, type II collagen, COMP, and aggrecan. In regard to the osteogenic markers, osteopontin and bone sialoprotein, there were no changes. In particular, the activation of PRP using the freeze-thaw cycle protocol showed a higher expression of the chondrogenic markers. Our preliminary in vitro results showed that PRP has good potential in the chondrogenic differentiation of AFSCs.

Synergistic impact of platelet rich plasma-heparin sulfate with hydroxyapatite/zirconia on the osteoblast differentiation potential of adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells.

Abstract
3D porous hydroxyapatite (HA) has been reinforced by zirconia (ZrO2) coating and impregnation with a combination of platelet rich plasma (PRP) as a source of growth factors (GFs) and Heparin sulfate (HS) to sustain the release of GFs. Adipose mesenchymal stem cells (ADMSCs) were characterized by flow cytometry for CD (cluster of differentiation) 44, CD105, CD106, CD34 and CD144, along with checking the multipotency by differentiation into the adipocytes and osteoblasts. Then, they were cultured on the scaffold treated with and without osteogenic media on days 7, 14 and 21. Electron micrograph and PKH staining show that the ADMSCs have a fusiform phenotype in the absence of osteogenic induction. Cell viability assay shows a higher number of the viable cells on the PRP-containing scaffolds than PRP-free scaffolds on day 7. Colorimetric evaluation, quantitative RT-PCR and immunocytochemistry demonstrate that PRP and HS significantly elevate the alkaline phosphatase enzyme activity and also accelerate the production of both early and mid-osteogenic markers, including collagen I and osteopontin expression with and without osteogenic conditions. The PRP-HS also accelerates the expression of the late osteogenic marker, osteocalcin, in both mRNA and protein level expression with a peak on day 21. In conclusion, supplementation of HA/ZrO2 with PRP/HS has a synergistic impact on the ADMSCs, even in the absence of chemical induction. It seems that HA/ZrO2/PRP/HS scaffold provides a higher osteoconductive microenvironment for stem cell differentiation to osteoblasts.

Abstract
Alginate as a versatile naturally occurring biomaterial has found widespread use in the biomedical field due to its unique features such as biocompatibility and biodegradability. The ability of its semipermeable hydrogels to provide a favourable microenvironment for clinically relevant cells made alginate encapsulation a leading technology for immunoisolation, 3D culture, cryopreservation as well as cell and drug delivery. The aim of this work is the evaluation of structural properties and swelling behaviour of the core-shell capsules for the encapsulation of multipotent stromal cells (MSCs), their 3D culture and cryopreservation using slow freezing. The cells were encapsulated in core-shell capsules using coaxial electrospraying, cultured for 35 days and cryopreserved. Cell viability, metabolic activity and cell-cell interactions were analysed. Cryopreservation of MSCs-laden core-shell capsules was performed according to parameters pre-selected on cell-free capsules. The results suggest that core-shell capsules produced from the low viscosity high-G alginate are superior to high-M ones in terms of stability during in vitro culture, as well as to solid beads in terms of promoting formation of viable self-assembled cellular structures and maintenance of MSCs functionality on a long-term basis. The application of 0.3 M sucrose demonstrated a beneficial effect on the integrity of capsules and viability of formed 3D cell assemblies, as compared to 10% dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) alone. The proposed workflow from the preparation of core-shell capsules with self-assembled cellular structures to the cryopreservation appears to be a promising strategy for their off-the-shelf availability.

Abstract
In the current study, the effect of superimposing platelet-rich plasma (PRP) on different culture mediums in a three-dimensional alginate scaffold encapsulated with adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells for cartilage tissue repair is reported. The three-dimensional alginate scaffolds with co-administration of PRP and/or chondrogenic supplements had a significant effect on the differentiation of adipose mesenchymal stem cells into mature cartilage, as assessed by an evaluation of the expression of cartilage-related markers of Sox9, collagen II, aggrecan and collagen, and glycosaminoglycan assays. For in vivo studies, following induction of osteochondral lesion in a rabbit model, a high degree of tissue regeneration in the alginate plus cell group (treated with PRP plus chondrogenic medium) compared with other groups of cell-free alginate and untreated groups (control) were observed. After 8 weeks, in the alginate plus cell group, functional chondrocytes were observed, which produced immature matrix, and by 16 weeks, the matrix and hyaline-like cartilage became completely homogeneous and integrated with the natural surrounding cartilage in the defect site. Similar effect was also observed in the subchondral bone. The cell-free scaffolds formed fibrocartilage tissue, and the untreated group did not form a continuous cartilage over the defect by 16 weeks.

Abstract
Three-dimensional scaffolds like hydrogels can be employed as cell carriers for in vitro or in vivo colonization and have become a major research topic to replace damaged tissue. In the current study, a novel composite hydrogel composed of sodium alginate (SA) and platelet-rich-plasma (PRP) varying in blending ratios, cross-linked with calcium ions, released from calcium carbonate-D-Glucono-d-lactone (CaCO3 -GDL) was successfully prepared. It was found that addition of PRP changed largely the physical properties and biological performance of the composite hydrogels, which was depending on the blending ratio. The gelation rate and swelling ratio of alginate hydrogels were significantly reduced by the addition of PRP, which produced also a more homogeneous gel structure. Field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM) investigation confirmed the incorporation of PRP-derived proteins in the hydrogel, where a porous structure with a pore size of 200-300 μm was found. On the other hand, an increase in surface roughness was observed after the addition of PRP. The compressive mechanical strength of SA/PRP composite hydrogel was enhanced in comparison to the pure SA gel. The composite hydrogels with the highest PRP content exhibited at a maximum compressive stress of 0.26 MPa a maximum strain of 55%, while the maximum compressive strain of pure SA hydrogels was only 45% at a stress of 0.08 MPa. It was also found that the in vitro degradation of the alginate gel was accelerated by the addition of PRP. In terms of cellular responses, all gels exhibited an excellent cytocompatibility. Indeed, the composite hydrogels supported bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells proliferation and their chondrogenesis with up-regulation of chondrogenic marker genes Sox9 and Aggrecan. Overall, the present study suggests a great potential of SA/PRP composite hydrogels as cell carriers for cartilage tissue engineering.

Abstract
Osteoarthritis associated with hip dysplasia is one of the most common orthopedic abnormalities in dogs, with an incidence of up to 40% in some breeds. Tissue therapy of cartilage has received great attention, with use of mesenchymal stromal cells and different types of biomaterials. The present study aimed to evaluate the effect of platelet lysate (PL) on the proliferation and differentiation of canine adipose tissue-derived mesenchymal stromal cells (ASCs), in liquid culture or hydrogels. PL was prepared from blood collected from healthy dogs and submitted to freezing-thawing cycles, and hydrogel was formed with canine thrombin. The effect of PL on the proliferation and differentiation of canine ASCs was evaluated in liquid and hydrogel systems, with microscopy, quantification of dsDNA, histology and quantification of glycosaminoglycans. The addition of 5% or 10% PL to the culture medium induced a greater proliferation rate than the presence of 10% fetal bovine serum. The cultivation of ASCs in PL gel, with normal or chondrogenic medium, resulted in maintenance of proliferation level similar to the conventional 2D cultivation, and induction of chondrogenic differentiation, especially in the presence of the chondrogenesis induction medium.

Abstract
Many attempts have been made to repair articular cartilage defects, including mesenchymal stem cell (MSC)-based tissue engineering strategies. Although this approach shows promise, optimizing MSC sources and their delivery is challenging. This study was designed to test the feasibility of using MSCs found in the human arthroscopic flushing fluid (AFF) for cartilage regeneration, by incorporating them into a newly developed one-step rapid cross-linking hyper-branched polyPEGDA/HA hydrogel. AFF-MSCs were isolated from the original intra-articular flushing fluid of 10 patients prior to arthroscopic procedures. The hydrogel was fabricated with hyper-branched polyPEGDA and thiolated hyaluronic acid (HA). In vitro assays demonstrated that AFF-MSCs possessed the typical MSC morphology and phenotype, and maintained chondrogenic differentiation properties when encapsulated within the hydrogel. The AFF-MSC/hydrogel composite could significantly repair full-thickness cartilage defects generated in a rat model after 8 weeks of implantation; smooth cartilage was formed with evidence of hyaline cartilage formation. These data suggest that human AFF-MSCs are a novel and abundant MSC source that have high therapeutic value for cartilage regeneration. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE Many attempts have been made to repair the defects of articular cartilage, including mesenchymal stem cell (MSC)-based tissue engineering strategies. Optimizing MSC sources and their delivery approaches still remain clinically challenging. Recent studies determined that MSCs derived from synovium and synovial fluid exhibited superior chondrogenic potential. However, no feasible methods to harvest these human tissues and cells have been impeding them for clinical application. Hereby, we explored a simple and easy accessible approach to obtain a new stem cell source from arthroscopic flushing fluid (AFF-MSCs), which probably contains plenty of MSCs from synovium and synovial fluid. Further experiments demonstrated that encapsulation of these stem cells with one-step rapid cross-linked polyPEGDA/HA hydrogel held very encouraging potential for cartilage regeneration.

Platelet lysate enhances synovial fluid multipotential stromal cells functions: Implications for therapeutic use. Cytotherapy 2018; 20:375-384. [PMID: 29398623 DOI: 10.1016/j.jcyt.2017.12.003] [Citation(s) in RCA: 10] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/07/2017] [Revised: 11/30/2017] [Accepted: 12/01/2017] [Indexed: 11/20/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND AIMS Although intra-articular injection of platelet products is increasingly used for joint regenerative approaches, there are few data on their biological effects on joint-resident multipotential stromal cells (MSCs), which are directly exposed to the effects of these therapeutic strategies. Therefore, this study investigated the effect of platelet lysate (PL) on synovial fluid-derived MSCs (SF-MSCs), which in vivo have direct access to sites of cartilage injury. METHODS SF-MSCs were obtained during knee arthroscopic procedures (N = 7). Colony forming unit-fibroblast (CFU-F), flow-cytometric phenotyping, carboxyfluorescein succinimidyl ester-based immunomodulation for T-cell and trilineage differentiation assays were performed using PL and compared with standard conditions. RESULTS PL-enhanced SF-MSC (PL-MSC) proliferation as CFU-F colonies was 1.4-fold larger, and growing cultures had shorter population-doubling times. PL-MSCs and fetal calf serum (FCS)-MSCs had the same immunophenotype and similar immunomodulation activities. In chondrogenic and osteogenic differentiation assays, PL-MSCs produced 10% more sulfated-glycosaminoglycan (sGAG) and 45% less Ca++ compared with FCS-MSCs, respectively. Replacing chondrogenic medium transforming growth factor-β3 with 20% or 50% PL further increased sGAG production of PL-MSCs by 69% and 95%, respectively, compared with complete chondrogenic medium. Also, Dulbecco's Modified Eagle's Medium high glucose (HG-DMEM) plus 50% PL induced more chondrogenesis compared with HG-DMEM plus 10% FCS and was comparable to complete chondrogenic medium. CONCLUSIONS This is the first study to assess SF-MSC responses to PL and provides biological support to the hypothesis that PL may be capable of modulating multiple functional aspects of joint resident MSCs with direct access to injured cartilage.

Abstract
Adult epidermal stem cells renew the epithelial compartment of the skin throughout life and are the most accessible of all adult stem cells. Isolation and culture epidermal stem cells in vitro can both benefit stem cell therapy and tissue-engineering study. In this study, we successfully isolated and cultured epidermal stem cells in vitro, and demonstrated for the first time that PRP and PDGF could promote epidermal stem cell proliferation and migration, which meant PRP and PDGF addition during epidermal stem cell culture can be regarded as an optimized condition to improve the number of harvested cells in a short time. Compared with epidermal stem cells treated with K-SFM medium and platelet-poor plasma, the differences showed in cells treated with PRP and PDGF including: CCK-8 assay showed that cell proliferation was enhanced about twice; the cell cycle analysis showed 7%~12% less cells were arrested in S and G2 phases; western blot assay suggested that PCNA expression was 7-10 times higher; transwell assay also demonstrated that cell migration capability enhanced 8-11 times. These results all proved that the application of PRP and PDGF in epidermal stem cell culture may promote stem cell therapy and tissue-engineered skin study by providing high quantity of seeded cells.

Proinflammatory and Anabolic Gene Expression Effects of Platelet-Rich Gel Supernatants on Equine Synovial Membrane Explants Challenged with Lipopolysaccharide. Vet Med Int 2017; 2017:6059485. [PMID: 28761774 PMCID: PMC5518502 DOI: 10.1155/2017/6059485] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/04/2017] [Revised: 05/10/2017] [Accepted: 06/05/2017] [Indexed: 01/25/2023] Open
Abstract
Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) preparations are used in horses with osteoarthritis (OA). However, some controversies remain regarding the ideal concentration of platelets and leukocytes to produce an adequate anti-inflammatory and anabolic response in the synovial membrane. The aims of this study were to study the influence of leukoconcentrated platelet-rich gel (Lc-PRG) and leukoreduced platelet-rich gel (Lr-PRG) supernatants on the quantitative expression of some proinflammatory and anabolic genes in equine synovial membrane explants (SMEs) challenged with lipopolysaccharide (LPS). SMEs from six horses were cultured over 96 h. Then, SMEs were harvested for RNA extraction and quantitative gene expression analysis by RT-qPCR for nuclear factor kappa B (NFκB), matrix metalloproteinase 13 (MMP-13), a disintegrin and metalloproteinase with thrombospondin motifs 4 (ADAMTS-4), collagen type I alpha 1 (COL1A1), collagen type II alpha 1 (COL2A1), and cartilage oligomeric matrix protein (COMP). The 25% and 50% Lc-PRG supernatants led to downregulation of NFκB, MMP-13, ADAMTS-4, COL1A1, COL2A1, and COMP in SMEs. Lr-PRG supernatants (particularly at the 50% concentration) induced downregulation of NFκB, MMP-13, ADAMTS-4, and COL1A1 and upregulation of COL2A1 and COMP. Lr-PRG supernatants should be used for the treatment of inflammatory arthropathies in horses because they have anti-inflammatory and anabolic effects in the synovial membrane.

Abstract
Multipotent mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) derived from synovial fluid (SF) are considered to be a promising cell type for therapeutic applications in joint disease. However, despite their potential relevance for clinical and experimental studies, there is insufficient knowledge about SF-derived MSCs isolated from horses and sheep. In this study, cells were recovered from healthy SF and bone marrow (BM) of sheep, and from healthy and osteoarthritic SF of horses. Ovine SF-MSCs were used to assess the efficiency of intracellular labelling with quantum dots (QDs). Colony forming units, generation times, trilineage differentiation potential and expression of CD73, CD90 and CD105 at mRNA level were assessed. QD labelling was efficient, with >98% positive cells directly after labelling at 10 nmol/L and >95% positive cells directly after labelling at 2 nmol/L. The label decreased over 7 days of culture, with more persistence at the higher labelling concentration. No significant differences in proliferation were observed. All MSCs had trilineage differentiation potential, but adipogenesis was more distinct in equine samples and chondrogenesis was most pronounced in ovine SF-MSCs. CD73, CD90 and CD105 were expressed in equine and ovine MSCs.

Abstract
Presently, there is a high paucity of bone grafts in the United States and worldwide. Regenerating bone is of prime concern due to the current demand of bone grafts and the increasing number of diseases causing bone loss. Autogenous bone is the present gold standard of bone regeneration. However, disadvantages like donor site morbidity and its decreased availability limit its use. Even allografts and synthetic grafting materials have their own limitations. As certain specific stem cells can be directed to differentiate into an osteoblastic lineage in the presence of growth factors (GFs), it makes stem cells the ideal agents for bone regeneration. Furthermore, platelet-rich plasma (PRP), which can be easily isolated from whole blood, is often used for bone regeneration, wound healing and bone defect repair. When stem cells are combined with PRP in the presence of GFs, they are able to promote osteogenesis. This review provides in-depth knowledge regarding the use of stem cells and PRP in vitro, in vivo and their application in clinical studies in the future.

Effect of Fibroblast Growth Factor 2 on Equine Synovial Fluid Chondroprogenitor Expansion and Chondrogenesis. Stem Cells Int 2015; 2016:9364974. [PMID: 26839571 PMCID: PMC4709790 DOI: 10.1155/2016/9364974] [Citation(s) in RCA: 11] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/14/2015] [Revised: 09/29/2015] [Accepted: 09/30/2015] [Indexed: 01/22/2023] Open
Abstract
Mesenchymal stem cells have been identified in the synovial fluid of several species. This study was conducted to characterize chondroprogenitor (CP) cells in equine synovial fluid (SF) and to determine the effect of fibroblast growth factor 2 (FGF-2) on SF-CP monolayer proliferation and subsequent chondrogenesis. We hypothesized that FGF-2 would stimulate SF-CP proliferation and postexpansion chondrogenesis. SF aspirates were collected from adult equine joints. Colony-forming unit (CFU) assays were performed during primary cultures. At first passage, SF-cells were seeded at low density, with or without FGF-2. Following monolayer expansion and serial immunophenotyping, cells were transferred to chondrogenic pellet cultures. Pellets were analyzed for chondrogenic mRNA expression and cartilage matrix secretion. There was a mean of 59.2 CFU/mL of SF. FGF-2 increased the number of population doublings during two monolayer passages and halved the population doubling times. FGF-2 did not alter the immunophenotype of SF-CPs during monolayer expansion, nor did FGF-2 compromise chondrogenesis. Hypertrophic phenotypic markers were not expressed in control or FGF-2 groups. FGF-2 did prevent the development of a “fibroblastic” cell layer around pellet periphery. FGF-2 significantly accelerates in vitro SF-CP expansion, the major hurdle to clinical application of this cell population, without detrimentally affecting subsequent chondrogenic capacity.
