Abstract
Extensive, large-scale single-cell profiling of healthy human blood at different ages is one of the critical pending tasks required to establish a framework for the systematic understanding of human aging. Here, using single-cell RNA/T cell receptor (TCR)/BCR-seq with protein feature barcoding, we profiled 317 samples from 166 healthy individuals aged 25-85 years old. From this, we generated a dataset from ∼2 million cells that described 55 subpopulations of blood immune cells. Twelve subpopulations changed with age, including the accumulation of GZMK+CD8+ T cells and HLA-DR+CD4+ T cells. In contrast to other T cell memory subsets, transcriptionally distinct NKG2C+GZMB-CD8+ T cells counterintuitively decreased with age. Furthermore, we found a concerted age-associated increase in type 2/interleukin (IL)4-expressing memory subpopulations across CD4+ and CD8+ T cell compartments (CCR4+CD8+ Tcm and Th2 CD4+ Tmem), suggesting a systematic functional shift in immune homeostasis with age. Our work provides novel insights into healthy human aging and a comprehensive annotated resource.

Abstract
T cells are a critical component of the immune system, found in abundance in blood, secondary lymphoid organs, and peripheral tissues. As individuals age, T cells are particularly susceptible to changes, making them one of the most affected immune subsets. These changes can have significant implications for age-related dysregulations, including the development of low-grade inflammation - a hallmark of aging known as inflammaging. In this review, we first present age-related changes in the functionality of the T cell compartment, including dysregulation of cytokine and chemokine production and cytotoxicity. Next, we discuss how these changes can contribute to the development and maintenance of inflammaging. Furthermore, we will summarize the mechanisms through which age-related changes in T cells may drive abnormal physiological outcomes.

Abstract
Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) represent a population of adult stem cells that have potent immunoregulatory, anti-inflammatory, and antiapoptotic properties. In addition, they have ability to migrate to the site of inflammation or injury, where they contribute to the regeneration and healing process. For these properties, MSCs have been used as therapeutic cells in several models, including treatment of damages or disorders of the ocular surface. If the damage of the ocular surface is extensive and involves a limbal region where limbal stem cell reside, MSC therapy has been proved as the effective treatment approach. Although the anti-inflammatory properties of MSCs have been well characterized, mechanisms of antiapoptotic action of MSCs are not well recognized. Using a chemically damaged cornea in a mouse model, we showed that the injury decreases expression of the gene for antiapoptotic molecule Bcl-2 and increases the expression of proapoptotic genes Bax and p53. These changes were attenuated by local transplantation of MSCs after corneal damage. The antiapoptotic effect of MSCs was tested in an in vitro model of co-cultivation of corneal explants with MSCs. The apoptosis of corneal cells in the explants was induced by proinflammatory cytokines and was significantly inhibited in the presence of MSCs. The antiapoptotic effect of MSCs was mediated by paracrine action, as confirmed by separation of the explants in inserts or by supernatants from MSCs. In addition, MSCs decreased the expression of genes for the molecules associated with endoplasmic reticulum stress Atf4, Bip, and p21, which are associated with apoptosis. The results show that MSCs inhibit the expression of proapoptotic genes and decrease the number of apoptotic cells in the damaged corneas, and this action might be one of the mechanisms of the therapeutic action of MSCs.

Abstract
Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) have the ability to migrate to the site of injury or inflammation, and to contribute to the healing process. Since patients treated with MSCs are often users of analgesic drugs, to relieve their uncomfortable pain associated with the tissue disorder, there is a possibility of negative effects of these drugs on the migration of endogenous and exogenous MSCs. Therefore, we tested the impact of acute and chronic treatment with morphine on the migration and organ distribution of exogenous adipose tissue-derived MSCs in mouse models. Firstly, we showed that the incubation of MSCs with morphine significantly reduced the expression of adhesive molecules CD44 (HCAM), CD54 (ICAM-1) and CD106 (VCAM-1) on MSCs. Using a model of systemic administration of MSCs labeled with vital dye PKH26 and by the application of flow cytometry to detect living CD45-PKH26+ cells, we found a decreased number of labeled MSCs in the lung, spleen and bone marrow, and a significantly increased number of MSCs in the liver of morphine-treated recipients. A skin allograft model was used to study the effects of morphine on the migration of exogenous MSCs to the superficial wound. Intraperitoneally administered MSCs migrated preferentially to the wound site, and this migration was significantly decreased in the morphine-treated recipients. The present results showed that morphine significantly influences the distribution of exogenous MSCs in the body, and decreases their migration to the site of injury.

Abstract
Morphine is an analgesic drug therapeutically administered to relieve pain. However, this drug has numerous side effects, which include impaired healing and regeneration after injuries or tissue damages. It suggests negative effects of morphine on stem cells which are responsible for tissue regeneration. Therefore, we studied the impact of morphine on the properties and functional characteristics of human bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs). The presence of μ-, δ- and κ-opioid receptors (OR) in untreated MSCs, and the enhanced expression of OR in MSCs pretreated with proinflammatory cytokines, was demonstrated using immunoblotting and by flow cytometry. Morphine modified in a dose-dependent manner the MSC phenotype, inhibited MSC proliferation and altered the ability of MSCs to differentiate into adipocytes or osteoblasts. Furthermore, morphine rather enhanced the expression of genes for various immunoregulatory molecules in activated MSCs, but significantly inhibited the production of the vascular endothelial growth factor, hepatocyte growth factor or leukemia inhibitory factor. All of these observations are underlying the selective impact of morphine on stem cells, and offer an explanation for the mechanisms of the negative effects of opioid drugs on stem cells and regenerative processes after morphine administration or in opioid addicts.

Abstract
AIMS Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) have recently been tested in clinical trials to treat severe diseases, including amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). Since autologous MSCs are frequently used for therapy, we aimed to evaluate the possible influence of the disease on characteristics and function of these cells. METHODS MSCs were isolated from the bone marrow of patients with ALS and compared with MSCs from healthy controls (HC). The cells were tested for phenotype, growth properties, differentiation ability, metabolic activity, secretory potential, expression of genes for immunomodulatory molecules and for the ability to regulate proliferation of mitogen-stimulated peripheral blood leucocytes. MSCs from patients with ALS and HC were either unstimulated or treated with proinflammatory cytokines for 24 hours before testing. RESULTS MSCs isolated from patients with ALS have a higher differentiation potential into adipocytes, express elevated levels of mRNA for interleukin-6, but produce less hepatocyte growth factor than MSCs from HC. On the other hand, there were no significant differences between MSCs from patients with ALS and HC in the expression of phenotypic markers, growth properties, metabolic activity, osteogenic differentiation potential and immunoregulatory properties. CONCLUSIONS The results suggest that, in spite of some differences in cytokine production, MSCs from patients with ALS can be useful as autologous cells in therapy of ALS.

Abstract
Retinal disorders represent the main cause of decreased quality of vision and even blindness worldwide. The loss of retinal cells causes irreversible damage of the retina, and there are currently no effective treatment protocols for most retinal degenerative diseases. A promising approach for the treatment of retinal disorders is represented by stem cell-based therapy. The perspective candidates are mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs), which can differentiate into multiple cell types and produce a number of trophic and growth factors. In this study, we show the potential of murine bone marrow-derived MSCs to differentiate into cells expressing retinal markers and we identify the key supportive role of interferon-γ (IFN-γ) in the differentiation process. MSCs were cultured for 7 days with retinal extract and supernatant from T-cell mitogen concanavalin A-stimulated splenocytes, simulating the inflammatory site of retinal damage. MSCs cultured in such conditions differentiated to the cells expressing retinal cell markers such as rhodopsin, S antigen, retinaldehyde-binding protein, calbindin 2, recoverin, and retinal pigment epithelium 65. To identify a supportive molecule in the supernatants from activated spleen cells, MSCs were cultured with retinal extract in the presence of various T-cell cytokines. The expression of retinal markers was enhanced only in the presence of IFN-γ, and the supportive role of spleen cell supernatants was abrogated with the neutralization antibody anti-IFN-γ. In addition, differentiated MSCs were able to express a number of neurotrophic factors, which are important for retinal regeneration. Taken together, the results show that MSCs can differentiate into cells expressing retinal markers and that this differentiation process is supported by IFN-γ.
