Adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells ameliorates experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis via modulation of Th1/Th17 and expansion of Th2/Treg responses. Cell Biol Int 2024; 48:1124-1137. [PMID: 38741520 DOI: 10.1002/cbin.12171] [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: 08/30/2023] [Revised: 02/03/2024] [Accepted: 04/26/2024] [Indexed: 05/16/2024]
Abstract
The most common central nervous system (CNS) inflammatory disease is multiple sclerosis (MS), modeled using experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE). Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) exhibit potent immunomodulatory capabilities, including the suppression of immune cell functions and anti-inflammatory cytokine production. Female C57BL/6 mice (8-10 weeks old) were divided into three groups: 1. Control, 2. Allogeneic MSCs (ALO) treatment, and 3. Syngeneic MSCs (SYN) treatment. To induce EAE, myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein was injected subcutaneously with complete Freund's adjuvant, followed by intraperitoneal pertussis toxin. On Days 6 and 12 postimmunization, the treatment groups received intraperitoneal injections of 2 × 106 MSCs. Daily clinical and weight assessments were performed, and on Day 25, the mice were euthanized. At the end of the period, brain histological analysis was conducted to quantify lymphocyte infiltration. T-cell characteristics were determined using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay and Real-time polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). The assessment of transcription factor expression levels in the CNS was also performed using RT-PCR. Compared to the control group, both the allogeneic (ALO) and syngeneic (SYN) groups demonstrated significantly reduced disease progression. The maximum clinical scores for the control, ALO, and SYN groups were 4.4 ± 0.1, 2.4 ± 0.2, and 2.1 ± 0.2, respectively (ALO and SYN vs. Control: p < .001). In comparison to the control group, histological studies demonstrated that the allogeneic and syngeneic groups had less lymphocytic infiltration (ALO: 1.4 ± 0.1, SYN: 1.2 ± 0.2, and control: 2.8 ± 0.15; p < .001) and demyelination (ALO: 1.2 ± 0.15, SYN: 1.1 ± 0.1 and control: 2.9 ± 0.1, p < .001). ALO and SYN groups had lower expression of Th1 and Th17 cytokines and transcription factors (IFN-γ: 0.067, 0.051; STAT4: 0.189, 0.162; T-bet: 0.175, 0.163; IL-17: 0.074, 0.061; STAT3: 0.271, 0.253; ROR-γt: 0.163, 0.149, respectively) compared to the control group on Day 25 following EAE induction. Additionally, ALO and SYN groups compared to the control group, expressed more Th2 and Treg cytokines and transcription factors (IL-4: 4.25, 4.63; STAT6: 2.78, 2.96; GATA3: 2.91, 3.08; IL-27: 2.32, 2.46, IL-33: 2.71, 2.85; TGF-β: 4.8, 5.05; IL-10: 4.71, 4.93; CTLA-4: 7.72, 7.95; PD1: 4.12,4.35; Foxp3: 3.82,4.08, respectively). This research demonstrated that MSCs possess the potential to be a therapeutic option for MS and related CNS inflammatory disorders. Their immunomodulatory properties, coupled with the observed reductions in disease severity, lymphocytic infiltration, and demyelination, indicate that MSCs could play a crucial role in altering the course of MS by mitigating inflammatory immune responses and promoting regulatory immune processes. These findings open up new possibilities for the development of MSC-based therapies for MS, and further investigation and clinical trials may be warranted to explore their efficacy and safety in human patients.

Histological and molecular restoration of type VII collagen in Recessive dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa mouse skin by topical injection of keratinocyte-like cells differentiated from human adipose-derived mesenchymal stromal cells. J Dermatol Sci 2024; 115:42-50. [PMID: 38876908 DOI: 10.1016/j.jdermsci.2024.05.004] [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: 12/21/2023] [Revised: 04/18/2024] [Accepted: 05/23/2024] [Indexed: 06/16/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Recessive dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa (RDEB) is a severe skin fragility disorder caused by mutations in the COL7A1 gene, which encodes type VII collagen (COL7), the main constituent of anchoring fibrils for attaching the epidermis to the dermis. Persistent skin erosions frequently result in intractable ulcers in RDEB patients. Adipose-derived mesenchymal stromal cells (AD-MSCs) are easily harvested in large quantities and have low immunogenicity. Therefore, they are suitable for clinical use, including applications involving allogeneic cell transplantation. Keratinocyte-like cells transdifferentiated from AD-MSCs (KC-AD-MSCs) express more COL7 than undifferentiated AD-MSCs and facilitate skin wound healing with less contracture. Therefore, these cells can be used for skin ulcer treatment in RDEB patients. OBJECTIVE We investigated whether KC-AD-MSCs transplantation ameliorated the RDEB phenotype severity in the grafted skin of a RDEB mouse model (col7a1-null) on the back of the immunodeficient mouse. METHODS KC-AD-MSCs were intradermally injected into the region surrounding the skin grafts, and this procedure was repeated after 7 days. After a further 7-day interval, the skin grafts were harvested. RESULTS Neodeposition of COL7 and generation of anchoring fibrils at the dermal-epidermal junction were observed, although experiments were based on qualitative. CONCLUSION KC-AD-MSCs may correct the COL7 insufficiency, repair defective/reduced anchoring fibrils, and improve skin integrity in RDEB patients.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Implantation failure due to thin endometrium has emerged as a major cause of infertility. In this study, we aimed to assess the safety and preliminary efficacy of adipose tissue-derived regenerative cells (ADRCs), a source of adipose-derived stem cells, in infertility patients with implantation failure. METHODS Five infertile women with implantation failure despite artificial reproductive technology were enrolled in this study and treated with ADRCs via the intrauterine route. The primary outcome was the incidence of adverse events. Additional outcomes were endometrial thickness after ADRC treatment and pregnancy success after embryo transfer. RESULTS There were no adverse events in any patient. There was no elevation of white blood cell count, C-reactive protein, or D-dimer levels. There was a significant difference in endometrial thickness in the secretory phase before versus after intrauterine transplantation of ADRCs (3.8 ± 1.3 mm versus 8.8 ± 2.8 mm, respectively; p<0.05). A gestational sac and fetal heartbeat were detected on transvaginal ultrasound in two of five patients. CONCLUSION Intrauterine infusion of autologous ADRCs is a simple and safe procedure that may ameliorate the endometrial microenvironment in infertile women with implantation failure.

Abstract
Recent developments in the field of regenerative surgeries and medical applications have led to a renewed interest in adipose tissue-enriched mesenchymal stem cell scaffolds. Various advantages declared for the decellularized adipose matrix (DAM) have caused its extensive use in the transfer of stem cells or growth factors for soft tissue regeneration induction. Meanwhile, the long-term application of detergents toward DAM regeneration has been assumed as a risky obstacle in this era. Herein, a rapid, mechanical protocol was developed to prepare DAM (M-DAM) without chemicals/enzymes and was comprehensively compared with the ordinary DAM (traditional chemical method). Accordingly, this method could effectively hinder oils and cells, sustain the structural and biological elements, and contain a superior level of collagen content. In addition, more protein numbers, as well as higher basement membrane elements, glycoproteins, and extracellular matrix-related proteins were detected in the regenerated M-DAM. Also, superior adipogenesis and angiogenesis proteins were distinguished. The noncytotoxicity of the M-DAM was also approved, and a natural ecological niche was observed for the proliferation and differentiation of stem cells, confirming its great potential for vascularization and adipogenesis in vivo. The suggested technique could effectively prepare the modified DAM in variant constructions of tablets, powders, emulsions, hydrogels, and different three-dimensional-printed structures. Hence, this rapid, mechanical process can produce bioactive DAM, which has the potential to be widely used in various research fields of regenerative medicine.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Fat grafting is commonly utilized in breast surgery, and since it was first described, clinicians and researchers have stridden towards improvement of graft retention. Current advancements include adding adipose-derived mesenchymal stem/stromal cells (MSC(AT)s), which have demonstrated promise for improved graft retention. OBJECTIVES This study reports outcomes for the first twenty-two patients undergoing breast augmentation (Stemform BA) or artificial implant replacement (Stemform AIR) with MSC(AT)-enriched fat in a real-world setting. METHODS Autologous MSC(AT)s were isolated and expanded ex vivo, then mixed with lipoaspirate and injected as enriched fat for Stemform BA and AIR. The breast volume was measured preoperatively and at 3 and 12 months postoperative using a 3D Infinity Dual-Lens Camera and LifeVizApp software. Additionally, independent plastic surgeons evaluated clinical images, and patient satisfaction was obtained at equal time points. RESULTS Twenty-two patients were included. All completed 3 and 12 months clinical follow-up and 3 months volume measurements. Nineteen patients completed 12 months volume measurements. The median fat graft retention at 12 months was 95.7% (IQR = 82.44-103.12%) for Stemform BA patients and 113.0% (IQR = 94.8-131.2%) for Stemform AIR patients. The Stemform BA patients had a median breast enlargement of 172.0% (IQR = 156.7-241.0%). The implant replacement volume of Stemform AIR patients was 102% (IQR = 85.1-130.3%). The patient reported 92.8% and 100% would elect to repeat treatment if they had the opportunity for Stemform BA and Stemform AIR, respectively. CONCLUSION Breast augmentation and breast implant replacement patients receiving ex vivo-expanded MSC(AT)-enriched fat grafts had high graft retention and patient satisfaction scores. The paper confirms the clinical efficacy of using ex vivo-expanded MSC(AT)s. Level of Evidence V This journal requires that authors assign a level of evidence to each article.

Abstract
Background Chronic wounds carry financial burdens and increase morbidity and mortality, especially in diabetic ulcers and Hansen's Morbus. More than 50% of chronic ulcers are difficult to heal with regular treatment and require new types of therapy such as the use of secretome of human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells (SM-hUCMSC). Methods This experimental study was carried out to see the effectiveness of using SM-hUCMSC in diabetic ulcers and Hansen's Morbus in four medical facilities (multicentre). The level of active secretion has been measured by default in 10% SM-hUCMSC gel, used as a treatment intervention. The primary outcome is wound healing in terms of the length, width, and extent of the wound. The secondary is the side effects of treatment 2 weeks after administration. Follow-up visits will be scheduled at 1 and 2 weeks post-treatment. Results Forty-one chronic ulcers successfully followed the study until the end. In patients with chronic ulcers, the mean ulcer length, width, and area were 1.60 (0,50-13,0), 1.3 (0,5-6,0), and 2.21 (0,25-78) cm square, respectively, before interventions and 1 (0-12), 0,8 (0-6,0), and 1 (0-72) square cm after interventions at the second follow-up. The change between the beginning and end of the intervention was significant (p-value <0.05). Conclusion The use of 10% SM-hUCMSC gel topically has been proven effective in accelerating the process of wound healing, especially chronic ulcers with side effects that are not present in this study.

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.

Abstract
The chronic wound represents a serious disease characterized by a failure to heal damaged skin and surrounding soft tissue. Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) derived from adipose tissue (ADSCs) are a promising therapeutic strategy, but their heterogeneity may result in varying or insufficient therapeutic capabilities. In this study, we discovered that all ADSCs populations expressed platelet-derived growth factor receptor β (PDGFR-β), while the expression level decreased dynamically with passages. Thus, using a CRISPRa-based system, we endogenously overexpressed PDGFR-β in ADSCs. Moreover, a series of in vivo and in vitro experiments were conducted to determine the functional changes in PDGFR-β activation ADSCs (AC-ADSCs) and to investigate the underlying mechanisms. With the activation of PDGFR-β, AC-ADSCs exhibited enhanced migration, survival, and paracrine capacity relative to control ADSCs (CON-ADSCs). In addition, the secretion components of AC-ADSCs contained more pro-angiogenic factors and extracellular matrix-associated molecules, which promoted the function of endothelial cells (ECs) in vitro. Additionally, in in vivo transplantation experiments, the AC-ADSCs transplantation group demonstrated improved wound healing rates, stronger collagen deposition, and angiogenesis. Consequently, our findings revealed that PDGFR-β overexpression enhanced the migration, survival, and paracrine capacity of ADSCs and improved therapeutic effects after transplantation to diabetic mice.

Microbiological Aspects of Pharmaceutical Manufacturing of Adipose-Derived Stem Cell-Based Medicinal Products. Cells 2023; 12:cells12050680.

Abstract
Subcutaneous adipose tissue is an excellent source of mesenchymal stem cells (ADSCs), which can be used in cell therapies as an active substance in advanced therapy medicinal products (ATMPs). Because of the short shelf-life of ATMPs and the time needed to obtain the results of microbiological analysis, the final product is often administered to the patient before sterility is confirmed. Because the tissue used for cell isolation is not sterilized to maintain cell viability, controlling and ensuring microbiological purity at all stages of production is crucial. This study presents the results of monitoring the contamination incidence during ADSC-based ATMP manufacturing over two years. It was found that more than 40% of lipoaspirates were contaminated with thirteen different microorganisms, which were identified as being physiological flora from human skin. Such contamination was successfully eliminated from the final ATMPs through the implementation of additional microbiological monitoring and decontamination steps at various stages of production. Environmental monitoring revealed incidental bacterial or fungal growth, which did not result in any product contamination and was reduced thanks to an effective quality assurance system. To conclude, the tissue used for ADSC-based ATMP manufacturing should be considered contaminated; therefore, good manufacturing practices specific to this type of product must be elaborated and implemented by the manufacturer and the clinic in order to obtain a sterile product.

Abstract
Atherosclerosis (AS) is a chronic inflammatory disease associated with lipids deposition which could be converted into acute clinical events by thrombosis or plaque rupture. Adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells (ADSCs) encapsulated repair units could be an effective cure for the treatment of AS patients. Here, we encapsulate human ADSCs in collagen microspheres to fabricate stem cell repair units. Besides, we show that encapsulation in collagen microspheres and cultured in vitro for 14 days maintain the viability and stemness of human ADSCs. Moreover, we generate AS progression model and niche in vitro by combining hyperlipemia serum of AS patients with AS cell models. We further systematically demonstrate that human ADSCs-based microspheres could ameliorate AS progression by inhibiting oxidative stress injure, cell apoptosis, endothelial dysfunction, inflammation, and lipid accumulation. In addition, we perform transcriptomic analysis and functional studies to demonstrate how human ADSCs (3D cultured in microspheres) respond to AS niche compared with healthy microenvironment. These findings reveal a role for ADSCs-based microspheres in the treatment of AS and provide new ideas for stem cell therapy in cardiovascular disease. The results may have implications for improving the efficiency of human ADSC therapies by illuminating the mechanisms of human ADSCs exposed in special pathological niche.

Abstract
Crohn's Disease (CD), which usually leads to anal fistulas among patients, is the most important inflammatory bowel disease that causes morbidity in many people around the world. This review article proposes using MSCs as a hopeful therapeutic strategy for CD and anal fistula treatment in both preclinical and clinical conditions. Finally, darvadstrocel, a cell-based medication to treat complex anal fistulas in adults, as the only European Medicines Agency (EMA)-approved product for the treatment of anal fistulas in CD is addressed. Although several common therapies, such as surgery and anti-tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) drugs as well as a combination of these methods is used to improve this disease, however, due to the low effectiveness of these treatments, the use of new strategies with higher efficiency is still recommended. Cell therapy is among the new emerging therapeutic strategies that have attracted great attention from clinicians due to its unique capabilities. One of the most widely used cell sources administrated in cell therapy is mesenchymal stem cell (MSC). This review article will discuss preclinical and clinical studies about MSCs as a potent and promising therapeutic option in the treatment of CD and anal fistula.

Abstract
Background Mesenchymal stem cells are currently used to treat several diseases. Populations of putative stem cells found in the adipose tissue (ASCs) have been shown to possess particularly enhanced functionalities. Nonetheless, there is lack of evidence that evaluates the effects of cryopreservation techniques on well-defined functional ASC populations characterized by immunophenotypical repertoire. Objective We therefore embarked a study to compare the frozen-thawed ASC subsets: CD73+CD90+CD105+CD34+CD146-(CD34+CD146), CD73+CD90+CD105+CD34+CD146+(CD34+CD146+), and CD73+CD90+CD105+CD34+(CD34+). We assessed their characterization in different functional assays. Method The ASC immunophenotypical subsets-purified by a flow cytometry sorting technique-were frozen in liquid nitrogen. After a period, they were thawed to examine their differentiation ability, colony-forming units, viability, and growth rate. Results We confirmed that inside the primary cell culture system, the proportion of CD34+, CD34+CD146-, and CD34+CD146+ took up 80%, 62%, and 19% on average, respectively. All populations could be frozen and stored in liquid nitrogen with retention of more than 85% of cell viability and displayed comparable stemness characteristics. Most importantly, the CD34+CD146+ subpopulation displayed a higher proliferation rate than other groups. Conclusion Our data demonstrated that the frozen-thawed CD34+CD146+ cells might represent a promising source for autologous cellular-based therapy. These findings set the basis for ASC subpopulations-based application in future potential clinical settings.

Abstract
Objective Human adipose-derived stem cells (hADSCs) are ideal seed cells for the regeneration of alveolar bone defects. Platelet-rich plasma (PRP), which is rich in growth factors, promotes tissue repair. The purpose of the present study was to investigate whether PRP promotes the osteogenic differentiation of hADSCs and to perform high-throughput sequencing to explore the possible mechanism. Methods hADSCs were divided into the three following groups: CON group, OM group, and PRP group. Osteogenesis was detected by Alizarin Red staining on day 14. Total RNA was extracted from the OM and PRP groups for high-throughput sequencing. The target genes of the differentially expressed osteogenic-related miRNAs were predicted, and combined miRNA/mRNA analysis was then performed. The mRNA and protein expression levels of hsa-miR-212-5p, type 1 cannabinoid receptor (CNR1), alkaline phosphatase (ALP), Runx2, osteocalcin (OCN), and collagen 1 A1 (COL1A1) in the OM and PRP groups were detected by qRT–PCR and Western blot analyses. The binding between hsa-miR-212-5p and CNR1 was detected by a dual-luciferase reporter assay. Results Both the OM and PRP groups exhibited enhanced proliferation of hADSCs, and the differences at 48 h and 72 h were statistically significant (P < 0.05). The PRP group had significantly more calcium nodules than the CON group (P < 0.05). Through high-throughput sequencing analysis, differential miRNA and mRNA expression profiles were obtained. During hADSC osteogenesis, the expression of hsa-miR-212-5p was downregulated, and the expression of CNR1 was upregulated. hsa-miR-212-5p was found to bind directly to the 3′ UTR of CNR1. Conclusions The present findings indicated that downregulation of hsa-miR-212-5p and upregulation of CNR1 may be involved in the process by which PRP promotes the osteogenic differentiation of hADSCs.

Abstract
Classical aging-associated diseases include osteoporosis, diabetes, hypertension, and arthritis. Osteoporosis causes the bone to become brittle, increasing fracture risk. Among the various treatments for fractures, stem cell transplantation is currently in the spotlight. Poor paracrine/differentiation capacity, owing to donor age or clinical history, limits efficacy. Lower levels of fibroblast growth factor 2 (FGF2) and hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) are involved in cell repopulation, angiogenesis, and bone formation in the elderly ADSCs (ADSC-E) than in the young ADSCs (ADSC-Y). Here, we study the effect of FGF2/HGF priming on the osteogenic potential of ADSC-E, determined by calcium deposition in vitro and ectopic bone formation in vivo. Age-induced FGF2/HGF deficiency was confirmed in ADSCs, and their supplementation enhanced the osteogenic differentiation ability of ADSC-E. Priming with FGF2/HGF caused an early shift of expression of osteogenic markers, including Runt-related transcription factor 2 (Runx-2), osterix, and alkaline phosphatase (ALP) during osteogenic differentiation. FGF2/HGF priming also created an environment favorable to osteogenesis by facilitating the secretion of bone morphogenetic protein 2 (BMP-2) and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF). Bone tissue of ADSC-E origin was observed in mice transplanted with FGF/HGF-primed ADSC-E. Collectively, FGF2/HGF priming could enhance the bone-forming capacity in ADSC-E. Therefore, growth factor-mediated cellular priming can enhance ADSC differentiation in bone diseases and thus contributes to the increased efficacy in vivo.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Tracheal fistula (TF) treatments may involve temporary orthosis and further ablative procedures, which can lead to infection. Thus, TF requires other therapy alternatives development. The hypothesis of this work was to demonstrate the feasibility of a tissue-engineered alternative for small TF in a preclinical model. Also, its association with suture filaments enriched with adipose tissue-derived mesenchymal stromal stem cells (AT-MSCs) was assessed to determine whether it could optimize the regenerative process. METHODS Poly (L-Lactic acid) (PLLA) membranes were manufactured by electrospinning and had morphology analyzed by scanning electron microscopy. AT-MSCs were cultured in these scaffolds and in vitro assays were performed (cytotoxicity, cellular adhesion, and viability). Subsequently, these cellular constructs were implanted in an animal small TF model. The association with suture filaments containing attached AT-MSCs was present in one animal group. After 30 d, animals were sacrificed and regenerative potential was evaluated, mainly related to the extracellular matrix remodeling, by performing histopathological (Hematoxylin-Eosin and trichrome Masson) and immunohistochemistry (Collagen I/II/III, matrix metalloproteinases-2, matrix metalloproteinases-9, vascular endothelial growth factor, and interleukin-10) analyses. RESULTS PLLA membranes presented porous fibers, randomly oriented. In vitro assays results showed that AT-MSCs attached were viable and maintained an active metabolism. Swine implanted with AT-MSCs attached to membranes and suture filaments showed aligned collagen fibers and a better regenerative progress in 30 d. CONCLUSIONS PLLA membranes with AT-MSCs attached were useful to the extracellular matrix restoration and have a high potential for small TF treatment. Also, their association with suture filaments enriched with AT-MSCs was advantageous.

Abstract
Mesenchymal stromal cell (MSC)-conditioned medium (CM) offers a potential opportunity in the skin wound healing treatment. In this systematic review, an overview of the knowledge on this topic has been provided. A multistep search of the PubMed, Scopus and Science Direct database has been performed to identify papers on MSCs-conditional media used in skin wound healing. Eligibility checks were performed based upon predefined selection criteria. Of the 485 articles initially identified, consequently, only 96 articles apparently related to MSC-conditional media were initially assessed for eligibility. Finally, the 32 articles, strictly regarding the in vitro use of MSCs-conditional media in skin wounds, were analysed. The information analysed highlights the efficacy of MSCs-conditional media on skin wound healing in vitro models. The outcome of this review may be used to guide pre-clinical and clinical studies on the role of MSCs-conditional media in skin wound healing.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Bone defects caused by diseases and trauma are usually accompanied by inflammation, and the implantation of biomaterials as a common repair method has also been found to cause inflammatory reactions, which affect bone metabolism and new bone formation. This study investigated whether exosomes from adipose-derived stem cells (ADSC-Exos) plays an immunomodulatory role in traumatic bone defects and elucidated the underlying mechanisms. METHODS ADSC-Exos were loaded by a biomaterial named gelatine nanoparticles (GNPs), physical and chemical properties were analysed by zeta potential, surface topography and rheology. A rat model of skull defect was used for our in vivo studies, and micro-CT and histological staining were used to analyse histological changes in the bone defect area. RT-qPCR and western blotting were performed to verify that ADSC-Exos could regulate M1/M2 macrophage polarization. MicroRNA (miRNA) array analysis was conducted to determine the miRNA expression profiles of ADSC-Exos. After macrophages were treated with a miR-451a mimic, miR-451a inhibitor and ISO-1, the relative expression of genes and proteins was measured by RT-qPCR and western blotting. RESULTS In vivo, micro-CT and histological staining showed that exosome-loaded GNPs (GNP-Exos) hydrogel, with good biocompatibility and strong mechanical adaptability, exhibited immunomodulatory effect mainly by regulating macrophage immunity and promoting bone tissue healing. Immunofluorescence further indicated that ADSC-Exos reduced M1 marker (iNOS) expression and increased M2 marker (CD206) expression. Moreover, in vitro studies, western blotting and RT-qPCR showed that ADSC-Exos inhibited M1 macrophage marker expression and upregulated M2 macrophage marker expression. MiR-451a was enriched in ADSC-Exos and targeted macrophage migration inhibitory factor (MIF). Macrophages treated with the miR-451a mimic showed lower expression of M1 markers. In contrast, miR-451a inhibitor treatment upregulated the expression of M1 markers and downregulated the expression of M2 markers, while ISO-1 (a MIF inhibitor) treatment upregulated miR-451a expression and downregulated M1 macrophage marker expression. CONCLUSION GNP-Exos can effectively regulate bone immune metabolism and further promote bone healing partly through immune regulation of miR-451a, which may provide a therapeutic direction for bone repair.

Abstract
Insulin-producing cells (IPCs) generated by our established protocol have reached the non-clinical ‘proof of concept’ stage. Our strategy for their clinical application is the autotransplantation of IPCs into patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM). In this context, the autoimmunity that characterized T1DM is important, rather than allorejection. We aimed to determine how these IPCs respond to T1DM autoimmunity. IPCs were generated from the subcutaneous fat tissue of non-obese diabetic (NOD) mice using our protocol. IPCs derived from NOD mice were transplanted under the kidney capsules of NOD mice at the onset of diabetes and the subsequent changes in blood glucose concentration were characterized. Blood glucose decreased within 30 days of transplantation, but increased again after 40–60 days in three of four recipient NOD mice. In tissue samples, the numbers of CD4+ and CD8+ T cells were significantly higher 60 days after transplantation than 30 days after transplantation. In conclusion, IPCs significantly ameliorate the diabetes of mice in the short term, but are damaged by autoimmunity in the longer term, as evidenced by local T cells accumulation. This study provides new insights into potential stem cell therapies for T1DM.

Bone Healing Materials in the Treatment of Recalcitrant Nonunions and Bone Defects. Int J Mol Sci 2022; 23:ijms23063352. [PMID: 35328773 PMCID: PMC8952383 DOI: 10.3390/ijms23063352] [Citation(s) in RCA: 18] [Impact Index Per Article: 9.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/17/2022] [Revised: 03/12/2022] [Accepted: 03/16/2022] [Indexed: 02/06/2023] Open
Abstract
The usual treatment for bone defects and recalcitrant nonunions is an autogenous bone graft. However, due to the limitations in obtaining autogenous bone grafts and the morbidity associated with their procurement, various bone healing materials have been developed in recent years. The three main treatment strategies for bone defects and recalcitrant nonunions are synthetic bone graft substitutes (BGS), BGS combined with bioactive molecules, and BGS and stem cells (cell-based constructs). Regarding BGS, numerous biomaterials have been developed to prepare bone tissue engineering scaffolds, including biometals (titanium, iron, magnesium, zinc), bioceramics (hydroxyapatite (HA)), tricalcium phosphate (TCP), biopolymers (collagen, polylactic acid (PLA), polycaprolactone (PCL)), and biocomposites (HA/MONs@miR-34a composite coating, Bioglass (BG)-based ABVF-BG (antibiotic-releasing bone void filling) putty). Bone tissue engineering scaffolds are temporary implants that promote tissue ingrowth and new bone regeneration. They have been developed to improve bone healing through appropriate designs in terms of geometric, mechanical, and biological performance. Concerning BGS combined with bioactive molecules, one of the most potent osteoinductive growth factors is bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs). In recent years, several natural (collagen, fibrin, chitosan, hyaluronic acid, gelatin, and alginate) and synthetic polymers (polylactic acid, polyglycolic acid, polylactic-coglycolide, poly(e-caprolactone) (PCL), poly-p-dioxanone, and copolymers consisting of glycolide/trimethylene carbonate) have been investigated as potential support materials for bone tissue engineering. Regarding BGS and stem cells (cell-based constructs), the main strategies are bone marrow stromal cells, adipose-derived mesenchymal cells, periosteum-derived stem cells, and 3D bioprinting of hydrogels and cells or bioactive molecules. Currently, significant research is being performed on the biological treatment of recalcitrant nonunions and bone defects, although its use is still far from being generalized. Further research is needed to investigate the efficacy of biological treatments to solve recalcitrant nonunions and bone defects.

[PMID: 34896163 DOI: 10.1016/j.lfs.2021.120212] [Citation(s) in RCA: 10] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/22/2021] [Revised: 11/23/2021] [Accepted: 12/01/2021] [Indexed: 02/07/2023]
Abstract
AIMS Hepatic ischemia reperfusion injury (HIRI) is associated with liver failure after liver transplantation and hepatectomy. Thus, this study aims to explore the effect of conditioned medium from adipose derived stem cells (ADSC-CM) on endoplasmic reticulum stress (ERS) and lipid metabolism after HIRI combined with hepatectomy in miniature pigs. MAIN METHODS A model of HIRI combined with hepatectomy in miniature pigs was established. The expression of ERS-related proteins and lipid metabolism related genes, as well as triglyceride (TG), total cholesterol (TC), high density lipoprotein (HDL), very low density lipoprotein (VLDL) and acetyl-CoA carboxylase 1 (ACC1) level were measured in liver tissues. KEY FINDINGS Both ADSCs and ADSC-CM could improve the damage in the ultrastructure of hepatocytes. ADSC-CM significantly decreased the protein expression of GRP78, ATF6, XBP1, p-eIF2α, ATF4, p-JNK and CHOP. Oil red O staining revealed that the degree of hepatocyte steatosis was also significantly reduced after treatment with ADSC-CM. In addition, ADSC-CM remarkably decreased TG, TC, HDL and ACC1 level in liver tissues, while enhanced VLDL content. Finally, SREBP1, SCAP, FASN, ACC1, HMGCR and HMGCS1 mRNA expression was also markedly downregulated in liver tissues. SIGNIFICANCE Injection of ADSC-CM into the hepatic parenchymal could represent a novel cell-free therapeutic approach to improve HIRI combined with hepatectomy injury. The inhibition of ERS and the improvement of lipid metabolism in the hepatocytes might be a potential mechanism used by ADSC-CM to prevent liver injury from HIRI combined with hepatectomy.

Abstract
Mesenchymal stem cells such as human adipose tissue‐derived stem cells (hADSCs) have been used as a representative therapeutic agent for tissue regeneration because of their high proliferation and paracrine factor‐secreting abilities. However, certain points regarding conventional ADSC delivery systems, such as low cell density, secreted cytokine levels, and cell viability, still need to be addressed for treating severe wounds. In this study, we developed a three‐dimensional (3D) cavity‐structured stem cell‐laden system for overdense delivery of cells into severe wound sites. Our system includes a hydrophobic surface and cavities that can enhance the efficiency of cell delivery to the wound site. In particular, the cavities in the system facilitate hADSC spheroid formation, increasing therapeutic growth factor expression compared with 2D cultured cells. Our hADSC spheroid‐loaded patch exhibited remarkably improved cell localization at the wound site and dramatic therapeutic efficacy compared to the conventional cell injection method. Taken together, the hADSC spheroid delivery system focused on cell delivery, and stem cell homing effect at the wound site showed a significantly enhanced wound healing effect. By overcoming the limitations of conventional cell delivery methods, our overdense cell delivery system can contribute to biomedical and clinical applications.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Although various reconstruction techniques are available for anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injuries, a long recovery time is required before patients return to sports activities, as the reconstructed ACL requires time to regain strength. To date, several studies have reported use of mesenchymal stem cells in orthopaedic surgery; however, no studies have used adipose-derived stem cell (ADSC) sheets in ACL reconstruction (ACLR). HYPOTHESIS ADSC sheet transplantation can improve biomechanical strength of the autograft used in ACLR. STUDY DESIGN Controlled laboratory study. METHODS A total of 68 healthy Japanese white rabbits underwent unilateral ACLR with a semitendinosus tendon autograft after random enrollment into a control group (no sheet; n = 34) and a sheet group (ADSC sheet; n = 34). At 2, 4, 8, 16, and 24 weeks after surgery, rabbits in each group were sacrificed to evaluate tendon-bone healing using histological staining, micro-computed tomography, and biomechanical testing. At 24 weeks, scanning transmission electron microscopy of the graft midsubstance was performed. RESULTS The ultimate failure load for the control and sheet groups, respectively, was as follows: 17.2 ± 5.5 versus 37.3 ± 10.3 (P = .01) at 2 weeks, 28.6 ± 1.9 versus 47.4 ± 10.4 (P = .003) at 4 weeks, 53.0 ± 14.3 versus 48.1 ± 9.3 (P = .59) at 8 weeks, 66.2 ± 9.3 versus 95.2 ± 43.1 (P = .24) at 16 weeks, and 66.7 ± 27.3 versus 85.3 ± 29.5 (P = .39) at 24 weeks. The histological score was also significantly higher in the sheet group compared with the control group at early stages up to 8 weeks. On micro-computed tomography, relative to the control group, the bone tunnel area was significantly narrower in the sheet group at 4 weeks, and the bone volume/tissue volume of the tendon-bone interface was significantly greater at 24 weeks. Scanning transmission electron microscopy at 24 weeks indicated that the mean collagen fiber diameter in the midsubstance was significantly greater, as was the occupation ratio of collagen fibers per field of view, in the sheet group. CONCLUSION ADSC sheets improved biomechanical strength, prevented bone tunnel enlargement, and promoted tendon-bone interface healing and graft midsubstance healing in an in vivo rabbit model. CLINICAL RELEVANCE ADSC sheets may be useful for early tendon-bone healing and graft maturation in ACLR.

Abstract
The dose-dependent effects of adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cell-conditioned medium (ADSC-CM) were compared with those of shockwave (SW) therapy in the treatment of early osteoarthritis (OA). Anterior cruciate ligament transaction (ACLT) with medial meniscectomy (MMx) was performed in rats divided into sham, OA, SW, CM1 (intra-articular injection of 100 μL ADSC-CM into knee OA), and CM2 (intra-articular injection of 200 μL ADSC-CM) groups. Cartilage grading, grading of synovium changes, and specific molecular analysis by immunohistochemistry staining were performed. The OARSI and synovitis scores of CM2 and SW group were significantly decreased compared with those of the OA group (p < 0.05). The inflammatory markers interleukin 1β, terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase dUTP nick end labeling and matrix metalloproteinase 13 were significantly reduced in the CM2 group compared to those in the SW and CM1 groups (p < 0.001). Cartilage repair markers (type II collagen and SRY-box transcription factor 9, SOX9) expression were significantly higher in the CM2 group than in the other treatment groups (p < 0.001; p < 0.05). Furthermore, inflammation-induced growth factors such as bone morphogenetic protein 2 (BMP2), BMP5, and BMP6 were significantly reduced in the treatment groups, and the CM2 group showed the best results among the treatments (p < 0.05). In conclusion, ADSC-CM and SW ameliorated the expression of inflammatory cytokines and inflammation-induced BMPs to protect the articular cartilage of the OA joint.

Abstract
Currently, human-skin derived cell culture is a basic technique essential for dermatological research, cellular engineering research, drug development, and cosmetic development. But the number of donors is limited, and primary cell function reduces through cell passage. In particular, since adult stem cells are present in a small amount in living tissues, it has been difficult to obtain a large amount of stem cells and to stably culture them. In this study, skin derived cells were isolated from the epidermis, dermis, and adipose tissue collected from single donor, and immortalization was induced through gene transfer. Subsequently, cell lines that could be used as stem cell models were selected using the differentiation potential and the expression of stem cell markers as indices, and it was confirmed that these could be stably cultured. The immortalized cell lines established in this study have the potential to be applied not only to basic dermatological research but also to a wide range of fields such as drug screening and cell engineering.

Abstract
ABSTRACT Impaired wound healing is responsible for significant morbidity and mortality worldwide. It is necessary to find a stable, efficient, and safe method to promote soft tissue wound healing. Fat grafting has become increasingly popular in contouring procedures. However, more recently, there has been an emphasis on its regenerative potential. In this study, we established the wound healing model using nude mice. Hematoxylin and eosin and Masson stainings were performed to assess the effect of chyloid fat on the histology of wound healing. A laser Doppler perfusion imager was used to evaluate the blood perfusion of wounds. Immunohistochemistry was carried out to detect the expression of CD31 in wound tissues. The results suggested that after treatment with granule fat or chyloid fat, wound healing was accelerated and blood perfusion was promoted. In addition, granule fat or chyloid fat treatment promoted the angiogenesis of the wound. In addition, we evaluated the amount of adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells in chyloid fat and granule fat. It was found that chyloid fat contained more adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells than granule fat did. In conclusion, we proved that chyloid fat could significantly accelerate the wound healing process via promoting angiogenesis. The adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cell plays a critical role in this effect of chyloid fat.

Abstract
Between 20 to 25% of Crohn’s disease (CD) patients suffer from perianal fistulas, a marker of disease severity. Seton drainage combined with anti-TNFα can result in closure of the fistula in 70 to 75% of patients. For the remaining 25% of patients there is room for in situ injection of autologous or allogenic mesenchymal stem cells such as adipose-derived stem/stromal cells (ADSCs). ADSCs exert their effects on tissues and effector cells through paracrine phenomena, including the secretome and extracellular vesicles. They display anti-inflammatory, anti-apoptotic, pro-angiogenic, proliferative, and immunomodulatory properties, and a homing within the damaged tissue. They also have immuno-evasive properties allowing a clinical allogeneic approach. Numerous clinical trials have been conducted that demonstrate a complete cure rate of anoperineal fistulas in CD ranging from 46 to 90% of cases after in situ injection of autologous or allogenic ADSCs. A pivotal phase III-controlled trial using allogenic ADSCs (Alofisel®) demonstrated that prolonged clinical and radiological remission can be obtained in nearly 60% of cases with a good safety profile. Future studies should be conducted for a better knowledge of the local effect of ADSCs as well as for a standardization in terms of the number of injections and associated procedures.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Adipose tissue-derived stem cells (ADSCs) autologous transplantation has been a promising strategy for aging-related disorders. However, the relationship between ADSCs senescence and organismal aging has not been clearly established. Therefore, we aimed at evaluating senescence properties of ADSCs from different age donors and to verify the influence of organismal aging on the proliferation and function of ADSCs in vitro, providing the theoretical basis for the clinical application of autologous ADSCs transplantation. METHODS AND RESULTS The ADSCs were obtained from 1-month-old and 20-month-old mice. The cells characteristics, functions, gene expression levels, apoptosis proportion, cell cycle, SA-β-gal staining, and transcription features were evaluated. Compared to ADSCs from 1-month-old mice, ADSCs from 20-month-old mice exhibited some senescence-associated changes, including inhibited abilities to proliferate. Moreover, differentiation abilities, cell surface markers, and cytokines secreting differed between 1M and 20M ADSCs. SA-β-Gal staining did not reveal differences between the two donor groups, while cells exhibited more remarkable age-related changes through continuous passages. Based on transcriptome analysis and further detection, the CCL7-CCL2-CCR2 axis is the most probable mechanism for the differences. CONCLUSIONS ADSCs from old donors have some age-related alterations. The CCL7-CCL2-CCR2 axis is a potential target for gene therapy to reduce the harmful effects of ADSCs from old donors. To improve on autologous transplantation, we would recommend that ADSCs should be cryopreserved in youth with a minimum number of passages or block CCL7-CCL2-CCR2 to abolish the effects of age-related alterations in ADSCs through the Chemokine signaling pathway.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Cardiovascular disease (CVD), including disorders of cardiac muscle and vascular, is the major cause of death globally. Many unsuccessful attempts have been made to intervene in the disease's pathogenesis and treatment. Stem cell-based therapies, as a regeneration strategy, cast a new hope for CVD treatment. One of the most well-known stem cells is mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs), classified as one of the adult stem cells and can be obtained from different tissues. These cells have superior properties, such as proliferation and highly specialized differentiation. On the other hand, they have the potential to modulate the immune system and anti-inflammatory activity. One of their most important features is the secreting the extracellular vesicles (EVs) like exosomes (EXOs) as an intercellular communication system mediating the different physiological and pathophysiological affairs. METHODS In this review study, the importance of MSC and its secretory exosomes for the treatment of heart disease has been together and specifically addressed and the use of these promising natural and accessible agents is predicted to replace the current treatment modalities even faster than we imagine. RESULTS MSC derived EXOs by providing a pro-regenerative condition allowing innate stem cells to repair damaged tissues successfully. As a result, MSCs are considered as the appropriate cellular source in regenerative medicine. In the plethora of experiments, MSCs and MSC-EXOs have been used for the treatment and regeneration of heart diseases and myocardial lesions. CONCLUSION Administration of MSCs has been provided a replacement therapeutic option for heart regeneration, obtaining great attention among the basic researcher and the medical doctors.

[PMID: 34195280 PMCID: PMC8203358 DOI: 10.1155/2021/6684709] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/12/2021] [Revised: 03/09/2021] [Accepted: 05/23/2021] [Indexed: 11/22/2022]
Abstract
Adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells (ADSCs) are a well-recognized multilineage stem cell with vital clinical feasibility for tissue regeneration. Extensive evidence indicates that oxidative stress and microRNAs (miRNAs/miRs) play an important role in the osteoinduction of adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells. In this study, we investigated the mechanism of miR-125a-5p in regulating the osteogenesis of human adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells (hADSCs) under oxidative stress. The expression of miR-125a-5p lessened gradually during the osteogenic differentiation of hADSCs. Relative to the negative group, the expression levels of runt-related transcription factor 2 (RUNX2), alkaline phosphatase (ALP), osteocalcin (OCN), and osterix in the miR-125a-5p group were marked lower than those in the miR-125a-5p inhibitor group. The levels of p16, p21, p53, miR-125a-5p, and ROS during osteoinduction of hADSCs were assessed in vitro under oxidative stress and were observed to be upregulated. Further experiments showed that oxidative stress and miR-125a-5p together suppressed the expression of VEGF during osteogenic differentiation of hADSCs and that the inhibition of miR-125a-5p reversed the effect of oxidative stress. In short, our study indicated that miR-125a-5p is induced under oxidative stress and inhibits the expression of VEGF, leading to the reduction of osteogenic differentiation of hADSCs. Our outcomes showed that miR-125a-5p could be a potential clinical target for bone repairing.

Abstract
Induced tissue-specific stem cells (iTSCs) are partially reprogrammed cells which have an intermediate state, such as progenitors or stem cells. They originate from the de-differentiation of differentiated somatic cells into pluripotent stem cells, such as induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) and embryonic stem cells (ESCs), or from the differentiation of undifferentiated cells. They show a limited capacity to differentiate and a morphology similar to that of somatic cell stem cells present in tissues, but distinct from that of iPSCs and ESCs. iTSCs can be generally obtained 7 to 10 days after reprogramming of somatic cells with Yamanaka’s factors, and their fibroblast-like morphology remains unaltered. iTSCs can also be obtained directly from iPSCs cultured under conditions allowing cellular differentiation. In this case, to effectively induce iTSCs, additional treatment is required, as exemplified by the conversion of iPSCs into naïve iPSCs. iTSCs can proliferate continuously in vitro, but when transplanted into immunocompromised mice, they fail to generate solid tumors (teratomas), implying loss of tumorigenic potential. The low tendency of iTSCs to elicit tumors is beneficial, especially considering applications for regenerative medicine in humans. Several iTSC types have been identified, including iTS-L, iTS-P, and iTS-D, obtained by reprogramming hepatocytes, pancreatic cells, and deciduous tooth-derived dental pulp cells, respectively. This review provides a brief overview of iPSCs and discusses recent advances in the establishment of iTSCs and their possible applications in regenerative medicine.

Abstract
Animal models provide an opportunity to assess the optimal treatment way and the underlying mechanisms of direct clinical application of adipose-derived stem cells (ADSCs). Previous studies have evaluated the effects of primitive and induced ADSCs in animal models of Parkinson's disease (PD). Here, eight databases were systematically searched for studies on the effects and in vivo changes caused by ADSC intervention. Quality assessment was conducted using a 10-item risk of bias tool. For the subsequent meta-analysis, study characteristics were extracted and effect sizes were computed. Ten out of 2324 published articles (n = 169 animals) were selected for further meta-analysis. After ADSC therapy, the rotation behavior (10 experiments, n = 156 animals) and rotarod performance (3 experiments, n = 54 animals) were improved (P < 0.000 01 and P = 0.000 3, respectively). The rotation behavior test reflected functional recovery, which may be due to the neurogenesis from neuronally differentiated ADSCs, resulting in a higher pooled effect size of standard mean difference (SMD) (- 2.59; 95% CI, - 3.57 to - 1.61) when compared to that of primitive cells (- 2.18; 95% CI, - 3.29 to - 1.07). Stratified analyses by different time intervals indicated that ADSC intervention exhibited a long-term effect. Following the transplantation of ADSCs, tyrosine hydroxylase-positive neurons recovered in the lesion area with pooled SMD of 13.36 [6.85, 19.86]. Transplantation of ADSCs is a therapeutic option that shows long-lasting effects in animal models of PD. The potential mechanisms of ADSCs involve neurogenesis and neuroprotective effects. The standardized induction of neural form of transplanted ADSCs can lead to a future application in clinical practice.

Abstract
Stem cells are a class of undifferentiated cells with great self-renewal and differentiation capabilities that can differentiate into mature cells in specific tissue types. Stem cell differentiation plays critical roles in body homoeostasis, injury repair and tissue generation. The important functions of stem cell differentiation have resulted in numerous studies focusing on the complex molecular mechanisms and various signalling pathways controlling stem cell differentiation. Circular RNAs (circRNAs) are a novel class of noncoding RNAs with a covalently closed structure present in eukaryotes. Numerous studies have highlighted important biological functions of circRNAs, and they play multiple regulatory roles in various physiological and pathological processes. Importantly, multiple lines of evidence have shown the abnormal expression of numerous circRNAs during stem cell differentiation, and some play a role in regulating stem cell differentiation, highlighting the role of circRNAs as novel biomarkers of stem cell differentiation and novel targets for stem cell-based therapy. In this review, we systematically summarize and discuss recent advances in our understanding of the roles and underlying mechanisms of circRNAs in modulating stem cell differentiation, thus providing guidance for future studies to investigate stem cell differentiation and stem cell-based therapy.Abbreviations: CircRNAs: circular RNAs; ESCs: embryonic stem cells; ADSCs: adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells; ecircRNAs: exonic circRNAs; EIciRNAs: exon-intron circRNAs; eiRNAs: circular intronic RNAs; tricRNAs: tRNA intronic circRNAs; pol II: polymerase II; snRNP: small nuclear ribonucleoprotein; m6A: N6-methyladenosine; AGO2: Argonaute 2; RBPs: RNA-binding proteins; MBNL: muscleblind-like protein 1; MSCs: mesenchymal stem cells; hiPSCs: human induced pluripotent stem cells; hiPSC-CMs: hiPSC-derived cardiomyocytes; hBMSCs: human bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells; hADSCs: human adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells; hDPSCs: human dental pulp stem cells; RNA-seq: high-throughput RNA sequencing; HSCs: haematopoietic stem cells; NSCs: neural stem cells; EpSCs: epidermal stem cells; hESCs: human embryonic stem cells; mESCs: murine embryonic stem cells; MNs: motor neurons; SSUP: small subunit processome; BMSCs: bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells; OGN: osteoglycin; GIOP: glucocorticoid‑induced osteoporosis; CDR1as: cerebellar degeneration-related protein 1 transcript; SONFH: steroid-induced osteogenesis of the femoral head; rBMSCs: rat bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells; QUE: quercetin; AcvR1b: activin A receptor type 1B; BSP: bone sialoprotein; mADSCs: mouse ADSCs; PTBP1: polypyrimidine tract-binding protein; ER: endoplasmic reticulum; hUCMSCs: MSCs derived from human umbilical cord; MSMSCs: maxillary sinus membrane stem cells; SCAPs: stem cells from the apical papilla; MyoD: myogenic differentiation protein 1; MSTN: myostatin; MEF2C: myocyte enhancer factor 2C; BCLAF1: BCL2-associated transcription factor 1; EpSCs: epidermal stem cells; ISCs: intestinal stem cells; NSCs: neural stem cells; Lgr5+ ISCs: crypt base columnar cells; ILCs: innate lymphoid cells.

Abstract
This review summarizes the results of clinical trials of cell therapy in patients with heart failure (HF). In contrast to acute myocardial infarction (where results have been consistently negative for more than a decade), in the setting of HF the results of Phase I–II trials are encouraging, both in ischaemic and non-ischaemic cardiomyopathy. Several well-designed Phase II studies have met their primary endpoint and demonstrated an efficacy signal, which is remarkable considering that only one dose of cells was used. That an efficacy signal was seen 6–12 months after a single treatment provides a rationale for larger, rigorous trials. Importantly, no safety concerns have emerged. Amongst the various cell types tested, mesenchymal stromal cells derived from bone marrow (BM), umbilical cord, or adipose tissue show the greatest promise. In contrast, embryonic stem cells are not likely to become a clinical therapy. Unfractionated BM cells and cardiosphere-derived cells have been abandoned. The cell products used for HF will most likely be allogeneic. New approaches, such as repeated cell treatment and intravenous delivery, may revolutionize the field. As is the case for most new therapies, the development of cell therapies for HF has been slow, plagued by multifarious problems, and punctuated by many setbacks; at present, the utility of cell therapy in HF remains to be determined. What the field needs is rigorous, well-designed Phase III trials. The most important things to move forward are to keep an open mind, avoid preconceived notions, and let ourselves be guided by the evidence.

Abstract
Background Wound healing is impaired in patients with diabetes due to the multifactorial etiology of the disease, which limits the therapeutic efficacy of various approaches. This study hypothesizes that the combination of adipose-derived stem cells (ADSCs) and platelet-rich plasma (PRP) might achieve optimally efficient diabetic wound healing. Methods ADSCs were isolated from the adipose tissues of Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats. PRP was prepared by using a two-step centrifugation technique. A diabetic wound model was established on the backs of SD rats to evaluate the effect of ADSCs incorporated into PRP. Hematoxylin and eosin staining, immunofluorescence, and immunohistochemistry were performed to observe the changes in neovascularization. ELISA and Western blot were utilized to detect the angiogenesis-related protein expression levels. The proliferation of endothelial cells was assessed by the MTS assay. Results ADSCs incorporated into PRP induced a higher wound closure rate than ADSCs, PRP, and negative control. The expression levels of VEGF, p-STAT3, and SDF-1 in the ADSC+PRP group were higher than those in the other groups. Moreover, the proliferation of endothelial cells was strongly stimulated by treatment with the combination of ADSC-conditioned medium (ADSC-CM) and PRP. Conclusions PRP enhanced diabetic wound healing induced by ADSCs, and its promoting effect involved neovascularization.

Abstract
Human adipose stem cells (hASCs) were introduced as appropriate candidate due to advantages like ease of isolation, in vitro expansion and lack of immune response. Deprenyl (Dep) was used to induce bone marrow stem cells into neuron-like cells. We investigated the Dep effect on neurotrophin genes expression in hASCs and their differentiation into neuron-like cells. The cells were isolated from small pieces of abdominal adipose tissue and subjected to flow cytometry to confirm purification. The osteogenic and adipogenic differentiation were identified. The proliferation rate and neurotrophin genes expression of treated cells were evaluated by MTT, TH immunostaining and RT-PCR. hASCs had positive response to CD44, CD73, CD90, CD105 markers and negative response to CD34 and CD45 markers and differentiated into adipocytes and osteocytes. Exposure to 10–7 M of Dep for 24 hours caused a significant increase of viable cells and BDNF, NTF-3 genes expression as compared to cultured cells in serum free medium and had no effect on the expression of NGF and GDNF genes. Based on our results, Dep is able to induce BDNF, NTF-3 and NTF-4 genes expression and neroun-like morphology in hASCs.

Abstract
The normal anatomical structure of articular cartilage determines its limited ability to regenerate and repair. Once damaged, it is difficult to repair it by itself. How to realize the regeneration and repair of articular cartilage has always been a big problem for clinicians and researchers. Here, we conducted a comprehensive analysis of the physical properties and cytocompatibility of hydrogels, and evaluated their feasibility as cell carriers for Adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cell (ADSC) transplantation. Concentration-matched hydrogels were co-cultured with ADSCs to confirm ADSC growth in the hydrogel and provide data supporting in vivo experiments, which comprised the hydrogel/ADSCs, pure-hydrogel, defect-placement, and positive-control groups. Rat models of articular cartilage defect in the knee joint region was generated, and each treatment was administered on the knee joint cartilage area for each group; in the positive-control group, the joint cavity was surgically opened, without inducing a cartilage defect. The reparative effect of injectable glycol chitosan/dibenzaldehyde-terminated polyethylene glycol (GCS/DF-PEG) hydrogel on injured articular cartilage was evaluated by measuring gross scores and histological score of knee joint articular-cartilage injury in rats after 8 weeks. The 1.5% GCS/2% DF-PEG hydrogels degraded quickly in vitro. Then, We perform in vivo and in vitro experiments to evaluate the feasibility of this material for cartilage repair in vivo and in vitro.

Comparative analysis of mouse bone marrow and adipose tissue mesenchymal stem cells for critical limb ischemia cell therapy. Stem Cell Res Ther 2021; 12:58. [PMID: 33436054 PMCID: PMC7805174 DOI: 10.1186/s13287-020-02110-x] [Citation(s) in RCA: 32] [Impact Index Per Article: 10.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/03/2020] [Accepted: 12/21/2020] [Indexed: 02/08/2023] Open
Abstract
INTRODUCTION Critical limb ischemia (CLI) is the most advanced form of peripheral arterial disease (PAD) characterized by ischemic rest pain and non-healing ulcers. Currently, the standard therapy for CLI is the surgical reconstruction and endovascular therapy or limb amputation for patients with no treatment options. Neovasculogenesis induced by mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) therapy is a promising approach to improve CLI. Owing to their angiogenic and immunomodulatory potential, MSCs are perfect candidates for the treatment of CLI. The purpose of this study was to determine and compare the in vitro and in vivo effects of allogeneic bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BM-MSCs) and adipose tissue mesenchymal stem cells (AT-MSCs) on CLI treatment. METHODS For the first step, BM-MSCs and AT-MSCs were isolated and characterized for the characteristic MSC phenotypes. Then, femoral artery ligation and total excision of the femoral artery were performed on C57BL/6 mice to create a CLI model. The cells were evaluated for their in vitro and in vivo biological characteristics for CLI cell therapy. In order to determine these characteristics, the following tests were performed: morphology, flow cytometry, differentiation to osteocyte and adipocyte, wound healing assay, and behavioral tests including Tarlov, Ischemia, Modified ischemia, Function and the grade of limb necrosis scores, donor cell survival assay, and histological analysis. RESULTS Our cellular and functional tests indicated that during 28 days after cell transplantation, BM-MSCs had a great effect on endothelial cell migration, muscle restructure, functional improvements, and neovascularization in ischemic tissues compared with AT-MSCs and control groups. CONCLUSIONS Allogeneic BM-MSC transplantation resulted in a more effective recovery from critical limb ischemia compared to AT-MSCs transplantation. In fact, BM-MSC transplantation could be considered as a promising therapy for diseases with insufficient angiogenesis including hindlimb ischemia.

The potential therapeutic effect of adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells in the treatment of cutaneous leishmaniasis caused by L. major in BALB/c mice. Exp Parasitol 2021; 222:108063.

Abstract
Leishmaniasis is one of the most neglected tropical infectious diseases in the world. The emergence of drug resistance and toxicity and the high cost of the available drugs with a lack of new anti-leishmanial drugs highlight the need to search for newer therapies with anti-leishmanial activities. Due to the mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) immunomodulatory capacity, they have been applied in a wide variety of disorders. In this study, the potential effects of adipose-derived MSC (AD-MSCs) therapy and its combination with glucantime were evaluated in a murine model of cutaneous leishmaniasis induced by L. major. The results showed that AD-MSCs improved wound healing and decreased parasite burden. The real-time PCR results obtained from mice treated with AD-MSCs showed that IL-12 and TNF-α genes were upregulated. IL-10, arginase, and FOXP3 genes were downregulated whereas no differences in expression of the IL-4 gene were found. Overall, it seems that AD-MSCs therapy enhances Th1 immune response in L. major infected BALB/c mice. Unexpectedly, our results showed that the association of glucantime to AD-MSCs treatments did not lead to an increment in the anti-leishmanial activity.

Abstract
Diabetes mellitus is a common lifestyle disease which can be classified into type 1 diabetes mellitus and type 2 diabetes mellitus. While both result in hyperglycemia due to lack of insulin action and further associated chronic ailments, there is a marked distinction in the cause for each type due to which both require a different prophylaxis. As observed, type 1 diabetes is caused due to the autoimmune action of the body resulting in the destruction of pancreatic islet cells. On the other hand, type 2 diabetes is caused either due to insulin resistance of target cells or lack of insulin production as per physiological requirements. Attempts to cure the disease have been made by bringing drastic changes in the patients' lifestyle; parenteral administration of insulin; prescription of drugs such as biguanides, meglitinides, and amylin; pancreatic transplantation; and immunotherapy. While these attempts cause a certain degree of relief to the patient, none of these can cure diabetes mellitus. However, a new treatment strategy led by the discovery of mesenchymal stem cells and their unique immunomodulatory and multipotent properties has inspired therapies to treat diabetes by essentially reversing the conditions causing the disease. The current review aims to enumerate the role of various mesenchymal stem cells and the different approaches to treat both types of diabetes and its associated diseases as well.

Abstract
Adipose-derived stem cells (ASCs) are an attractive source for regenerative medicine as they can be easily isolated, rapidly expandable in culture and show excellent in vitro differentiation potential. Acetylcholine (ACh), one of the main neurotransmitters in central and peripheral nervous systems, plays key roles in the control of several physiological processes also in non-neural tissues. As demonstrated in our previous studies, ACh can contribute to the rat ASCs physiology, negatively modulating ASCs proliferation and migration via M2 muscarinic receptor (mAChR) activation. In the present work we show that rat ASCs also express α7 nicotinic receptors (nAChRs). In particular, we have investigated the effects mediated by the selective activation of α7 nAChRs, which causes a reduction of ASC proliferation without affecting cell survival and morphology, and significantly promotes cell migration via upregulation of the CXCR4 expression. Interestingly, the activation of the α7 nAChR also upregulates the expression of M2 mAChR protein, indicating a cooperation between muscarinic and nicotinic receptors in the inhibition of ASC proliferation.

Abstract
Biodegradable poly(ε-caprolactone) (PCL) scaffolds with adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells (ADSCs) have been used in vascular regeneration studies. An evaluation method of the effect of PCL degradation products (DP) on the viability, stemness, and differentiation capacities of ADSCs is established. ADSCs are cultured in medium containing different concentrations of PCL DP before evaluating the effect of PCL DP on the cell apoptosis and proliferation, cell surface antigens, adipogenic and osteogenic differentiation capacities, and capacities to differentiate into endothelial cells and smooth muscle cells. The results demonstrate that PCL DP exceed 0.05 mg mL-1 may change the stemness and differentiation capacities of ADSCs. Therefore, to control the proper concentration of PCL DP is essential for ADSCs in vascular regeneration application.

Abstract
The incidence of acute and chronic wound diseases is rising due to various reasons. With complicated pathogenesis, long course, difficult treatment and high disability, wound diseases have become a major burden for patients, their families, and society. Therefore, the focus of research is to identify new ideas and methods for treatment. Fat grafting has gained increased attention because of its effectiveness in wound treatment, and further analysis has uncovered that the stem cells derived from fat may be the main factor affecting wound healing. We summarize the function of adipose stem cells and analyze their possible mechanisms in tissue repair, helping to provide new ideas for the treatment of wound healing.

Abstract
Adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells (ADSCs) are promising candidate for regenerative medicine to repair non-healing bone defects due to their high and easy availability. However, the limited osteogenic differentiation potential greatly hinders the clinical application of ADSCs in bone repair. Accumulating evidences demonstrate that circular RNAs (circRNAs) are involved in stem/progenitor cell fate determination, but their specific role in stem/progenitor cell osteogenesis, remains mostly undescribed. Here, we show that circRNA-vgll3 originating from the vgll3 locus markedly enhances osteogenic differentiation of ADSCs; nevertheless, silencing of circRNA-vgll3 dramatically attenuates ADSC osteogenesis. Furthermore, we validate that circRNA-vgll3 functions in ADSC osteogenesis through a circRNA-vgll3/miR-326-5p/integrin α5 (Itga5) pathway. Itga5 promotes ADSC osteogenic differentiation and miR-326-5p suppresses Itga5 translation. CircRNA-vgll3 directly sequesters miR-326-5p in the cytoplasm and inhibits its activity to promote osteogenic differentiation. Moreover, the therapeutic potential of circRNA-vgll3-modified ADSCs with calcium phosphate cement (CPC) scaffolds was systematically evaluated in a critical-sized defect model in rats. Our results demonstrate that circRNA-vgll3 markedly enhances new bone formation with upregulated bone mineral density, bone volume/tissue volume, trabeculae number, and increased new bone generation. This study reveals the important role of circRNA-vgll3 during new bone biogenesis. Thus, circRNA-vgll3 engineered ADSCs may be effective potential therapeutic targets for bone regenerative medicine.

Abstract
Adipose-derived stem cells (ASCs) exhibiting mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) characteristics, have been extensively studied in recent years. Because they have been shown to differentiate into lineages such as osteogenic, chondrogenic, neurogenic or myogenic, the focus of most of the current research concerns either their potential to replace bone marrow as a readily available and abundant source of MSCs, or to employ them in regenerative and reconstructive medicine. There is close to consensus regarding the methodology used for ASC isolation and culture, whereas a number of molecular analyses implicates them in potential therapies of a number of pathologies. When it comes to clinical application, there is a range of examples of animal trials and clinical studies employing ASCs, further emphasizing the advancement of studies leading to their more widespread use. Nevertheless, in vitro studies will most likely continue to play a significant role in ASC studies, both providing the molecular knowledge of their ex vivo properties and possibly serving as an important step in purification and application of those cells in a clinical setting. Therefore, it is important to consider current methods of ASC isolation, culture, and processing. Furthermore, molecular analyses and cell surface properties of ASCs are essential for animal studies, clinical studies, and therapeutic applications of the MSC properties.

Abstract
Stem cells play a key role in tissue regeneration due to their self-renewal and multidirectional differentiation, which are continuously regulated by signals from the extracellular matrix (ECM) microenvironment. Therefore, the unique biological and physical characteristics of the ECM are important determinants of stem cell behavior. Although the acellular ECM of specific tissues and organs (such as the skin, heart, cartilage, and lung) can mimic the natural microenvironment required for stem cell differentiation, the lack of donor sources restricts their development. With the rapid development of adipose tissue engineering, decellularized adipose matrix (DAM) has attracted much attention due to its wide range of sources and good regeneration capacity. Protocols for DAM preparation involve various physical, chemical, and biological methods. Different combinations of these methods may have different impacts on the structure and composition of DAM, which in turn interfere with the growth and differentiation of stem cells. This is a narrative review about DAM. We summarize the methods for decellularizing and sterilizing adipose tissue, and the impact of these methods on the biological and physical properties of DAM. In addition, we also analyze the application of different forms of DAM with or without stem cells in tissue regeneration (such as adipose tissue), repair (such as wounds, cartilage, bone, and nerves), in vitro bionic systems, clinical trials, and other disease research.

Lu GM, Rong YX, Liang ZJ, Hunag DL, Wu FX, Ma YF, Luo ZZ, Liu XH, Mo S, Li HM. FGF2-induced PI3K/Akt signaling evokes greater proliferation and adipogenic differentiation of human adipose stem cells from breast than from abdomen or thigh. Aging (Albany NY) 2020; 12:14830-14848. [PMID: 32706337 PMCID: PMC7425436 DOI: 10.18632/aging.103547] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/04/2020] [Accepted: 06/04/2020] [Indexed: 12/15/2022]
Abstract
In this study, human adipose stem cells were isolated from subcutaneous fat in the thigh (htASCs), abdomen (haASCs) and breast (hbASCs). Flow cytometry was used to detect cell surface markers, and an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay was used to detect paracrine activity. Paracrine gene expression in the three cell types was examined using real-time qPCR, and adipogenic ability was assessed using Oil Red O staining. RNA from third-passage haASCs and hbASCs was sequenced. The results showed that the differentiation potential marker markers CD49d and CD54 were similar across hbASCs from 10 subjects. The hbASCs showed higher colony forming ability and expression of fibroblast growth factor-2, tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase-1 and stromal cell derived factor-1 than htASCs and haASCs. Stimulating hbASCs with FGF2 promoted adipogenic differentiation, while treating the cells with the PI3K inhibitor LY294002 inhibited differentiation. These results suggest that the PI3K/Akt signaling pathway can promote proliferation and adipogenic differentiation of adipose stem cells, and that activation of this pathway by FGF2 may explain why hbASCs show greater proliferation and adipogenic differentiation than haASCs and htASCs.

Abstract
Aim: Embryo implantation and subsequent pregnancy depends on endometrial thickness. To investigate potential fertility strategies for women with thin endometrium, we explored the efficacy of adipose tissue-derived regenerative cells (ADRCs) on thin endometrium and embryo implantation in a mouse model. Materials & methods: ADRCs isolated from mouse subcutaneous fat were characterized by flow cytometry. Endometrium thickness, endometrial fibrosis, embryo implantation and angiogenesis factors were evaluated in uterine cavities of ethanol-induced thin endometrium mice with ADRC transplantation. Results: ADRCs included adipose-derived stem cells and some blood vessel component cells. ADRCs improved endometrial thickness, endometrial fibrosis and embryo implantation and augmented vascular endothelial growth factor expression in the mouse uterine. Conclusion: ADRCs may be a useful therapeutic strategy to improve fertility of women with thin endometrium.

Abstract
Aging is considered as inevitable changes at different levels of genome, cell, and organism.
From the accumulation of DNA damages to imperfect protein homeostasis, altered cellular communication
and exhaustion of stem cells, aging is a major risk factor for many prevalent diseases, such as
cancer, cardiovascular disease, pulmonary disease, diabetes, and neurological disorders. The cells are
dynamic systems, which, through a cycle of processes such as replication, growth, and death, could
replenish the bodies’ organs and tissues, keeping an entire organism in optimal working order. In many
different tissues, adult stem cells are behind these processes, replenishing dying cells to maintain normal
tissue function and regenerating injured tissues. Therefore, adult stem cells play a vital role in preventing
the aging of organs and tissues, and can delay aging. However, during aging, these cells also
undergo some detrimental changes such as alterations in the microenvironment, a decline in the regenerative
capacity, and loss of function. This review aimed to discuss age-related changes of stem cells in
different tissues and cells, including skin, muscles, brain, heart, hair follicles, liver, and lung.

Abstract
Adult adipose tissue-derived mesenchymal stem cells (ASCs) constitute a vital population of multipotent cells capable of differentiating into numerous end-organ phenotypes. However, scientific and translational endeavors to harness the regenerative potential of ASCs are currently limited by an incomplete understanding of the mechanisms that determine cell-lineage commitment and stemness. In the current study, we used reduced representation bisulfite sequencing (RRBS) analysis to identify epigenetic gene targets and cellular processes that are responsive to 5′-azacitidine (5′-AZA). We describe specific changes to DNA methylation of ASCs, uncovering pathways likely associated with the enhancement of their proliferative capacity. We identified 4,797 differentially methylated regions (FDR < 0.05) associated with 3,625 genes, of which 1,584 DMRs annotated to the promoter region. Gene set enrichment of differentially methylated promoters identified “phagocytosis,” “type 2 diabetes,” and “metabolic pathways” as disproportionately hypomethylated, whereas “adipocyte differentiation” was the most-enriched pathway among hyper-methylated gene promoters. Weighted coexpression network analysis of DMRs identified clusters associated with cellular proliferation and other developmental programs. Furthermore, the ELK4 binding site was disproportionately hyper-methylated within the promoters of genes associated with AKT signaling. Overall, this study offers numerous preliminary insights into the epigenetic landscape that influences the regenerative capacity of human ASCs.

Adipose tissue-derived stromal cells retain immunosuppressive and angiogenic activity after coculture with cord blood hematopoietic precursors. Eur J Cell Biol 2020; 99:151069. [PMID: 31982141 DOI: 10.1016/j.ejcb.2020.151069] [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: 09/04/2019] [Revised: 12/25/2019] [Accepted: 01/03/2020] [Indexed: 02/07/2023] Open
Abstract
Adipose-tissue derived stromal cells (ASCs) are currently considered as a full value alternative source of bone marrow MSCs for prevention of graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) after hematopoietic stem cell transplantation due to their immunosuppressive potential. Besides, ASCs are known to support ex vivo expansion of hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPCs). Ex vivo expansion enables to amplify significantly the number of HSPCs of different commitment. Mononuclear cells (MNCs) from cord blood (cb) contain HSPCs and are easily assessed. The rarity of those HSPCs is a serious limitation of its application in cell therapy. Here we expanded cbMNCs in stroma-dependent setting to generate heterocellular associates consisting of ASCs and undifferentiated and low committed hematopoietic cbHSPCs. A part of cbHSPCs in associates demonstrated a primitive phenotype confirmed by formation of "cobblestone areas". ASCs associated with cbHSPCs demonstrated up-regulation of immunosuppressive indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase (IDO), leukemia inhibitory factor (LIF), cyclooxygenase-2 (PTGS2) genes. ASC-cbHSPCs as well as ASCs provoked the suppression of HLA-DR activation and apoptosis of mitogen-stimulated T cells. VEGF transcription and secretion were elevated providing stimulation of blood vessel formation in ovo. Thus, ASCs retain immunosuppressive and proangiogenic capacities evidencing "third party" potential along with the effective support of ex vivo expansion of cbHSPCs. Above functions expand the relevance of ASCs for needs of regenerative medicine.
