Scaffolds associated with mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) derivatives, such as extracellular vesicles (EVs), represent interesting carriers for bone regeneration. This systematic review aims to analyze in vitro and in vivo studies that report the effects of EVs combined with scaffolds in bone regeneration. A methodical review of the literature was performed from PubMed and Embase from 2012 to 2020. Sixteen papers were analyzed; of these, one study was in vitro, eleven were in vivo, and four were both in vitro and in vivo studies. This analysis shows a growing interest in this upcoming field, with overall positive results. In vitro results were demonstrated as both an effect on bone mineralization and proangiogenic ability. The interesting in vitro outcomes were confirmed in vivo. Particularly, these studies showed positive effects on bone regeneration and mineralization, activation of the pathway for bone regeneration, induction of vascularization, and modulation of inflammation. However, several aspects remain to be elucidated, such as the concentration of EVs to use in clinic for bone-related applications and the definition of the real advantages.

Objective: The efficacy of mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) therapy in acetaminophen-induced liver injury has been investigated in animal experiments, but individual studies with a small sample size cannot be used to draw a clear conclusion. Therefore, we conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis of preclinical studies to explore the potential of using MSCs in acetaminophen-induced liver injury. Methods: Eight databases were searched for studies reporting the effects of MSCs on acetaminophen hepatoxicity. The Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-analyses (PRISMA) guidelines were used. SYRCLE’s risk of bias tool for animal studies was applied to assess the methodological quality. A meta-analysis was performed by using RevMan 5.4 and STATA/SE 16.0 software. Results: Eleven studies involving 159 animals were included according to PRISMA statement guidelines. Significant associations were found for MSCs with the levels of alanine transaminase (ALT) (standardized mean difference (SMD) − 2.58, p < 0.0001), aspartate aminotransferase (AST) (SMD − 1.75, p = 0.001), glutathione (GSH) (SMD 3.7, p < 0.0001), superoxide dismutase (SOD) (SMD 1.86, p = 0.022), interleukin 10 (IL-10) (SMD 5.14, p = 0.0002) and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) (SMD − 4.48, p = 0.011) compared with those in the control group. The subgroup analysis showed that the tissue source of MSCs significantly affected the therapeutic efficacy (p < 0.05). Conclusion: Our meta-analysis results demonstrate that MSCs could be a potential treatment for acetaminophen-related liver injury.

Background: The therapeutic value of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) in tissue engineering and regenerative medicine is attributable in part to paracrine pathways triggered by several secreted factors secreted into culture media. The secreted factor here is known as the conditioned medium (CM) or secretome. Objectives: This review is aimed to investigate and summarise the in-vitro, pre-clinical in-vivo studies regarding the role of CM-MSC in bone regeneration from 2007 until 2018 Data Sources: A systematic literature search on PubMed, MEDLINE, OVID, Scopus and Cochrane library was carried out by using search terms: Secretome, conditioned medium, mesenchymal stem cell, bone healing, osteogenic, osteogenesis. Methods: A total of 611 articles were reviewed. Ten articles were identified as relevant for this systematic literature review. Results: Three tables of studies were constructed for in vitro studies and in-vivo studies. Conclusion: All of the included in-vitro studies and in-vivo studies have shown a promoting effect of bone regeneration at various stages. Although there are no clinical studies regarding the use of CM-MSC in the human bone regeneration that have been conducted, transplantation of secretome has shown a promising result in the acceleration of bone healing process.

Introduction: The induction of arteriogenesis is a promising approach for treatment of ischemic cardiomyopathy. Notch signaling has been reported to be a key regulator of arteriogenesis. Hypothesis: We hypothesized that Notch-induced human mesenchymal stem cell (SB623) sheet transplantation would induce arteriogenesis in ischemic lesion, leading to improvement of left ventricular function in ischemic cardiomyopathy model rats. Methods: Two weeks after the ischemic induction, SB623-patches were transplanted to myocardial infarction model rats (SB group, n=10) or shame operations were performed (Control group, n=10). We evaluated cardiac performance and histology six weeks after the treatment in vivo. In vitro, we performed RNA-sequencing of human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) cocultured with SB623s. Results: Left ventricular ejection fraction was significantly improved 6 weeks after SB623-sheets transplantation (LVEF, 52±7% vs. 34±5%, p<0.001). Similarly, the attenuation of LV remodeling was observed at 6 weeks (LV diastolic dimension, 73±7 mm vs. 85±5 mm, p<0.001). Histological findings revealed that fibrosis was decreased in SB group (11±1% vs. 22±4%, p=0.02). Furthermore, vWF-positive capillary vessels (vessels, 516±110 /mm 2 vs. 248±26 /mm 2 , p<0.001) and αSMA- and vWF-positive arterioles with over 20μm diameter (arterioles, 25±8 /mm 2 vs. 6±3 /mm 2 , p=0.002) were significantly increased in SB group, suggesting the induction of angiogenesis and arteriogenesis. In vitro, whole transcriptome analysis showed that Notch signaling pathway was significantly upregulated (p<0.001) in HUVECs co-cultured with SB623s. Similarly, pathway analysis revealed upregulated “fluid shear stress and atherosclerosis” pathway (p<0.001) in vitro, suggesting an arteriogenic response of endothelial cell. In vivo study, upregulations of ephrin-B2 (p=0.03) and EphB4 (p=0.01) gene expressions in SB group were confirmed, indicating both arterial and venous remodeling induced by Notch signaling. Conclusions: SB623 patch transplantation induces arteriogenesis with functional recovery via Notch signaling in rat myocardial infarction model, proposing a new strategy for the treatment of ischemic cardiomyopathy.

Aim: We aimed to investigate the protection of exogenous miR-19a/19b with bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cell (BM-MSC) transplantation on cardiac function and inhibition of fibrosis in myocardial infarction (MI). Materials & methods: BM-MSC-derived exosomes were used to deliver miR-19a/19b (exo/miR-19a/19b) to the cultured cardiac HL-1 cells, and the apoptosis of cells were evaluated. Exo/miR-19a/19b and BM-MSCs were also transplanted to an in vivo MI mouse model. The recovery of cardiac function was assessed and the level of cardiac fibrosis was determined. Results: Exo/miR-19a/19b and MSCs reduced the area of cardiac fibrosis in the heart tissue in the mouse MI model. Using BM-MSC-derived exosomes as a vehicle, miR-19a/19b significantly suppressed the apoptosis of cardiac HL-1 cells. The combination of Exo/miR-19a/19b and MSC transplantation significantly enhanced the recovery of cardiac function and reduced cardiac fibrosis in the MI model. Conclusion: Our study provides an effective regenerative intervention strategy to attenuate the damage of MI.
