Chondroprotective Effects of Chondrogenic Differentiated Adipose-Derived Mesenchymal Stem Cells Sheet on Degenerated Articular Cartilage in an Experimental Rabbit Model. Bioengineering (Basel) 2023; 10:bioengineering10050574. [PMID: 37237645 DOI: 10.3390/bioengineering10050574] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/30/2023] [Revised: 04/25/2023] [Accepted: 05/08/2023] [Indexed: 05/28/2023] Open
Abstract
Adipose-derived stem cells (ADSCs) have been studied for many years as a therapeutic option for osteoarthritis (OA); however, their efficacy remains insufficient. Since platelet-rich plasma (PRP) induces chondrogenic differentiation in ADSCs and the formation of a sheet structure by ascorbic acid can increase the number of viable cells, we hypothesized that the injection of chondrogenic cell sheets combined with the effects of PRP and ascorbic acid may hinder the progression of OA. The effects of induction of differentiation by PRP and formation of sheet structure by ascorbic acid on changes in chondrocyte markers (collagen II, aggrecan, Sox9) in ADSCs were evaluated. Changes in mucopolysaccharide and VEGF-A secretion from cells injected intra-articularly in a rabbit OA model were also evaluated. ADSCs treated by PRP strongly chondrocyte markers, including type II collagen, Sox9, and aggrecan, and their gene expression was maintained even after sheet-like structure formation induced by ascorbic acid. In this rabbit OA model study, the inhibition of OA progression by intra-articular injection was improved by inducing chondrocyte differentiation with PRP and sheet structure formation with ascorbic acid in ADSCs.

The differentiation and generation of glucose-sensitive beta like-cells from menstrual blood-derived stem cells using an optimized differentiation medium with platelet-rich plasma (PRP).

Abstract
Regarding their reversible damage of insulin-producing cells (IPCs) and the inefficiency of treatment methods for type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM), scientists decided to produce IPCs from an unlimited source of cells. But the production of these cells is constantly faced with problems such as low differentiation efficiency in cell therapy and regenerative medicine. This study provided an ideal differentiation medium enriched with plasma-rich platelet (PRP) delivery to produce IPCs from menstrual blood-derived stem cells (MenSCs). We compared them with and without PRP differentiation medium. MenSCs were then cultured in two experimental groups: with/without PRP differentiation medium and a control group (undifferentiated MenSCs). After 18 days, differentiated cells were analyzed for expression of pancreatic gene markers by real-time PCR. Immunocytochemical staining was used to detect the presence of insulin and Pdx-1 in the differentiated cells, and insulin and C-peptide secretion response to glucose were tested by ELISA. Finally, the morphology of differentiated cells was examined by an inverted microscope. In vitro studies showed that MenSCs differentiated in the PRP differentiation medium had strong properties of IPCs such as pancreatic islet-like structure. The expression of pancreatic markers at both RNA and protein levels showed that the differentiation efficiency was higher in the PRP differentiation medium. In both experimental groups, the differentiated cells were functional and secreted C-peptide and insulin on glucose stimulation, but the secretion of C-peptide and insulin in the PRP group was higher than those cultured in the without PRP differentiation medium. Our findings showed that using of PRP enriched differentiation medium can promote the differentiation of MenSCs into IPCs compared to the without PRP culture group. Therefore, the use of PRP into differentiation media can be proposed as a new approach to producing IPCs from MenSCs and used in cell-based therapies for T1DM.

Abstract
Knee osteoarthritis presents higher incidences than other joints, with increased prevalence during aging. It is a progressive process and may eventually lead to disability. Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are expected to repair damaged issues due to trilineage potential, trophic effects, and immunomodulatory properties of MSCs. Intra-articular MSC injection was reported to treat knee osteoarthritis in many studies. This review focuses on several issues of intra-articular MSC injection for knee osteoarthritis, including doses of MSCs applied for injection and the possibility of cartilage regeneration following MSC injection. Intra-articular MSC injection induced hyaline-like cartilage regeneration, which could be seen by arthroscopy in several studies. Additionally, anatomical, biomechanical, and biochemical changes during aging and other causes participate in the development of knee osteoarthritis. Conversely, appropriate intervention based on these anatomical, biomechanical, biochemical, and functional properties and their interactions may postpone the progress of knee OA and facilitate cartilage repair induced by MSC injection. Hence, post-injection rehabilitation programs and related mechanisms are discussed.

Abstract
Bone-marrow-mesenchymal-stromal-cells (BMSCs)- and platelet-rich-plasma (PRP)-based therapies have shown potential for treating osteoarthritis (OA). Recently, the combination of these two approaches was proposed, with results that overcame those observed with the separate treatments, indicating a possible role of PRP in ameliorating BMSCs' regenerative properties. Since a molecular fingerprint of BMSCs cultivated in the presence of PRP is missing, the aim of this study was to characterize the secretome in terms of soluble factors and extracellular-vesicle (EV)-embedded miRNAs from the perspective of tissues, pathways, and molecules which frame OA pathology. One hundred and five soluble factors and one hundred eighty-four EV-miRNAs were identified in the PRP-treated BMSCs' secretome, respectively. Several soluble factors were related to the migration of OA-related immune cells, suggesting the capacity of BMSCs to attract lympho-, mono-, and granulocytes and modulate their inflammatory status. Accordingly, several EV-miRNAs had an immunomodulating role at both the single-factor and cell level, together with the ability to target OA-characterizing extracellular-matrix-degrading enzymes and cartilage destruction pathways. Overall, anti-inflammatory and protective signals far exceeded inflammation and destruction cues for cartilage, macrophages, and T cells. This study demonstrates that BMSCs cultivated in the presence of PRP release therapeutic molecules and give molecular ground for the use of this combined and innovative therapy for OA treatment.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The purpose of this meta-analysis was to investigate the efficacy and safety of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) combined with platelet-rich plasma (PRP) in the treatment of knee osteoarthritis (KOA). DESIGN Systematic review and meta-analysis. PARTICIPANTS Patients with KOA. INTERVENTIONS Use of MSCs+PRP. PRIMARY AND SECONDARY OUTCOMES Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) score, Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC) score, Knee Injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (KOOS) and adverse reactions. DATA SOURCES PubMed, Cochrane Library, Embase and China National Knowledge Infrastructure were searched from inception to 15 July 2021. MEASURES The OR or weighted mean difference (WMD) of relevant outcome indicators was calculated. Study quality was evaluated using the risk-of-bias assessment tool version 2.0. Heterogeneity among studies was evaluated by calculating I2. If I2<50%, a fixed-effect model was applied; conversely, if I2 ≥50%, a random-effect model was applied. RESULTS Six controlled clinical trials with 493 cases were included. The meta-analysis results showed that in terms of the VAS score 3 months after treatment, MSCs+PRP had no significant effect on the reduction of the VAS score in patients with KOA compared with the control (p=0.09), hyaluronic acid (HA) (p=0.15) or PRP alone (p=0.07). MSCs+PRP was more effective in reducing the VAS score at 6 and 12 months after treatment than the control (WMD=-0.55, 95% CI -0.87 to -0.22, p<0.001), HA (WMD=-1.20, 95% CI -2.28 to -0.13, p=0.03) or PRP alone (WMD=-0.54, 95% CI -0.89 to -0.18, p=0.003). Regarding the decrease in the total WOMAC score at 3 and 6 months after treatment, MSCs+PRP showed better clinical efficacy than the control or HA alone (p<0.01). Compared with the control, MSCs+PRP exhibited no significant difference in reducing the total WOMAC score 12 months after treatment (p=0.39). There was no significant difference between MSCs+PRP and the control in terms of improvement of the KOOS 12 months after treatment (p=0.16). Compared with MSCs alone, MSCs+PRP exhibited no significant difference in the incidence of adverse reactions (p=0.22) 12 months after treatment. CONCLUSIONS Treatment with MSCs+PRP showed good clinical efficacy in improving pain and joint function in patients with KOA. Compared with MSCs alone, there was no significant difference in the incidence of adverse reactions with MSCs+PRP. PROSPERO REGISTRATION NUMBER CRD 42021275830.

Advanced platelet-rich fibrin promotes the paracrine function and proliferation of adipose-derived stem cells and contributes to micro-autologous fat transplantation by modulating HIF-1α and VEGF. ANNALS OF TRANSLATIONAL MEDICINE 2022; 10:60.

Abstract
Background The micro-autologous fat transplantation (MAFT) technique has demonstrated its feasibility in multiple medical fields, such as facial rejuvenation. Advanced platelet-rich fibrin (APRF), an autologous platelet concentrated on a fibrin membrane without added external factors, has shown significant potential for tissue restoration. However, the role of APRF in the modulation of MAFT remains unclear. Here, we aimed to explore the effect of APRF on MAFT. Methods Adipose-derived stem cells (ASCs) were isolated from human gastric subcutaneous fat and treated with APRF. ELISA assays measured cytokines. The proliferation of ASCs was analyzed by CCK-8 assays. The levels of hypoxia-inducible factor-1α (HIF-1α), heat shock protein 70 (HSP70), insulin like growth factor 2 (IGF-2), interleukin-6 (IL-6), interleukin-8 (IL-8), and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) were measured by ELISA assays, quantitative reverse transcription-PCR (qRT-PCR), and Western blot analysis. The effect of APRF/HIF-1α/VEGF on MAFT in vivo was analyzed in Balb/c nude mice. The BALB/c mice were subcutaneously co-transplanted with fat, APRF, and control shRNA, HIF-1α shRNA, or VEGF shRNA into the dorsal area. The serum and protein levels of the above cytokines were analyzed by ELISA assays and Western blot analysis. Lipid accumulation was measured by Oil Red O staining. The expression of CD34 was assessed by immunohistochemical staining. Results APRF continuously secreted multiple cytokines, including epidermal growth factor (EGF), FGF-2, insulin like growth factor 1 (IGF-1), interleukin-1beta (IL-1β), interleukin-4 (IL-4), platelet-derived growth factor alpha polypeptide b (PDGF-AB), platelet-derived growth factor beta polypeptide b (PDGF-BB), transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-β), and VEGF. APRF was able to promote the proliferation of ASCs. APRF dose-dependently activated the expression of HIF-1α, HSP70, IGF-2, IL-6, IL-8, and VEGF in ASCs. APRF regulated the paracrine function of ASCs by modulating HIF-1α and VEGF.APRF increased the survival of MAFT by modulating HIF-1α and VEGF in vivo. Conclusions APRF promotes the paracrine function and proliferation of ASCs and contributes to MAFT by modulating HIF-1α and VEGF. Our findings provide new insights into the mechanism by which APRF regulates MAFT.

Abstract
PURPOSE With the aging population, it is clear that the demand for future chronic pain treatment modalities is at an all-time high. One of the newest treatment modalities that is gaining popularity with both practitioners and patients alike is that of regenerative medicine and the use of stem cells to treat chronic painful conditions. This article aims to distill the most recent, available data from both laboratory research and clinical trials to better illuminate the potentials for these therapies in the treatment of chronic pain. RECENT FINDINGS There are numerous investigations underway using mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) to treat painful, largely degenerative conditions. A large majority of these investigations focus on osteoarthritis of the knee and have demonstrated significantly improved pain scores. Some of these investigations have demonstrated significantly increased articular cartilage and meniscus growth as well as improved function. These studies have been smaller (n, 18) and need to be corroborated on a macrolevel. Platelet-rich plasma (PRP)-based therapies have been most extensively studied in the treatment of knee osteoarthritis. Multiple prospective and randomized trials and meta-analyses have afforded level I evidence in support of PRP's safety and efficacy in chronic knee pain demonstrating both decreased pain (via VAS) and increased functional status (via WOMAC and IKDC). There have been randomized controlled trials examining PRP therapies in treatment degenerative disc disease (intradiscal treatment), facet arthropathy (intra-facet injections), and sacroiliitis (SIJ) which have all yielded similar positive results. Each RTC demonstrated decreased pain scores and increased function but lacks the scale to derive concrete guidelines. Newer investigations are underway examining modified PRP formulas with increased fibrin (PRF) or various growth factors (PRGF) and have shown positive outcomes with respect to osteoarthritic conditions in small trials. Animal trials are underway further investigating these therapies as well as specific gene modulation therapies. This review of the most recent investigations into the application and uses of biologic stem cell-derived treatments for chronic painful conditions should act to illustrate the growing, favorable data for these types of modalities both with respect to pain control and functional improvement.

Abstract
Background Mesenchymal stromal cells are a safe and promising option to treat knee osteoarthritis as previously demonstrated in different clinical trials. However, their efficacy, optimal dose and addition of adjuvants must be determined. Here, we evaluated the clinical effects of a dose of 100 × 106 bone marrow mesenchymal stromal cells (BM-MSCs) in combination with Platelet Rich Plasma (PRGF®) as adjuvant in a randomized clinical trial. Methods A phase II, multicenter, randomized clinical trial with active control was conducted. Sixty patients diagnosed with knee OA were randomly assigned to 3 weekly doses of PRGF® or intraarticular administration of 100 × 106 cultured autologous BM-MSCs plus PRGF®. Patients were followed up for 12 months, and pain and function were assessed using VAS and WOMAC and by measuring the knee range of motion range. X-ray and magnetic resonance imaging analyses were performed to analyze joint damage. Results No adverse effects were reported after BM-MSC administration or during follow-up. According to VAS, the mean value (SD) for PRGF® and BM-MSC with PRGF® went from 5 (1.8) to 4.5 (2.2) (p = 0.389) and from 5.3 (1.9) to 3.5 (2.5) (p = 0.01), respectively at 12 months. In WOMAC, the mean (SD) baseline and 12-month overall WOMAC scores in patients treated with PRGF® was 31.9 (16.2) and 22.3 (15.8) respectively (p = 0.002) while that for patients treated with BM-MSC plus PRGF® was 33.4 (18.7) and 23.0 (16.6) (p = 0.053). Although statistical significances between groups have been not detected, only patients being treated with BM-MSC plus PRGF® could be considered as a OA treatment responders following OARSI criteria. X-ray and MRI (WORMS protocol) revealed no changes in knee joint space width or joint damage. Conclusions Treatment with BM-MSC associated with PRGF® was shown to be a viable therapeutic option for osteoarthritis of the knee, with clinical improvement at the end of follow-up. Further phase III clinical trials would be necessary to confirm the efficacy. Trial registration Clinical Trials.gov identifier NCT02365142. Nº EudraCT: 2011-006036-23

[PMID: 32728547 DOI: 10.1007/s12070-020-01851-8] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/25/2020] [Accepted: 03/30/2020] [Indexed: 01/15/2023] Open
Abstract
Being rich in growth factors platelet rich fibrin (PRF) has been used for decades for its healing properties in cosmetic surgeries but its use in transcanal myringoplasty is a novel approach that remains unexplored. In todays era of minimally invasive surgery not only does it provide as a great alternative to conventional myringoplasty but also outshines it. It reduces post operative pain, hospital stay and unlike the conventional technique that uses termporalis fascia as a graft material, PRF myringoplasty if required can be reperformed on the same patient multiple times with minimal risk. This procedure comes as a boon for patients with recurrent graft defects because after multiple revision surgeries, temporalis fascia can be deficient and other graft materials like cartilage/perichondrium or fascia lata etc. have to be harvested surgically for myringoplasty. In PRF myringoplasty there is no upper limit in the number of times the PRF membrane can be made and also it does not entail any surgical incision for graft harvest. A prospective study involving 41 patients was conducted at Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose Medical College, Jabalpur where in the tympanic membrane perforations were repaired using PRF membrane with a successful outcome in 85.4% of the patients included in this study.

Abstract
The material of patients with invasive carcinoma of no special type (ICNT) and nonmalignant diseases (ND) of the mammary gland was studied. When comparing the concentrations of histidine-rich glycoprotein (HRG) and E-cadherin (CDH1), statistically significant differences between ICNT and ND by HRG in the supernatant of blood cells and its spontaneous production by biopsies and by CDH1 at its induced production, as well as by influence indices of polyclonal activators on the production of CDH1 were found. When comparing the expression of immunohistochemical markers, no statistically significant differences between ICNT and ND were obtained.

Abstract
Biopsy material of patients with malignant and benign breast diseases was examined. HRG mRNA expression was detected in 70% of cases in biopsy material obtained from patients with nonspecific invasive carcinoma and in 66.7% of cases in biopsy material of patients with benign breast diseases. Immunohistochemical analysis revealed expression of collagen II, the beta-1 integrin, and E-cadherin-markers of epithelial-mesenchymal transition. The use of RT-qPCR combined with immunohistochemical study made it possible to identify atypical cells, which can be regarded as precancerous changes, in individual patients.

Abstract
Stem cell treatment and platelet-rich plasma (PRP) therapy are two significant issues in regenerative medicine. Stem cells such as bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells, adipose-derived stem cells and periodontal ligament stem cells can be successfully applied in the field of tissue regeneration. PRP, a natural product isolated from whole blood, can secrete multiple growth factors (GFs) for regulating physiological activities. These GFs can stimulate proliferation and differentiation of different stem cells in injury models. Therefore, combination of both agents receives wide expectations in regenerative medicine, especially in bone, cartilage and tendon repair. In this review, we thoroughly discussed the interaction and underlying mechanisms of PRP derived GFs with stem cells, and assessed their functions in cell differentiation for musculoskeletal regeneration.
