Background. Systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS) accompanied by trauma can lead to multiple organ dysfunction syndrome (MODS) and even death. Early inhibition of the inflammation is necessary for damage control. Bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs), as a novel therapy modality, have been shown to reduce inflammatory responses in human and animal models.Methods. In this study, we used Western blot, quantitative PCR, and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) to assess the activity of BMSCs to suppress the inflammation induced by lipopolysaccharide (LPS) in human umbilical cord endothelial cells (HUVECs) and alveolar macrophages.Results. Our results demonstrated that LPS caused an inflammatory response in alveolar macrophages and HUVECs, increased permeability of HUVEC, upregulated expression of toll-like receptor (TLR) 2, TLR4, phosphorylated p65, downregulated release of IL10, and promoted release of TNF-αin both cells. Coculture with BMSCs attenuated all of these activities induced by LPS in the two tested cell types.Conclusions. Together, our results demonstrate that BMSCs dosage dependently attenuates the inflammation damage of alveolar macrophages and HUVECs induced by LPS.

Human bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) differentiation into special cell types is affected by inflammation. Melatonin has various effects such as anti-oxidation and immune regulation. However, melatonin’s effect on BMSCs osteogenic differentiation during inflammation has not been elucidated. Rat BMSCs were isolated and assigned into control group, inflammation group (1 μg/ml lipopolysaccharide, LPS) and melatonin group (100 μM melatonin was added to LPSstimulated BMSCs cells) followed by analysis of BMSCs proliferation by MTT assay, Caspase 3 and ALP activity, expression of Runx2 and OP by Real time PCR, ROS content and SOD activity, TNF-α and IL-1β secretion by ELISA and mTOR/PI3K/AKT signaling protein level by Western blot. LPS action on BMSCs significantly inhibits BMSCs proliferation, promotes Caspase 3 activity, inhibits ALP activity, decreases Runx2 and OP expression and SOD activity, increases ROS content and TNF-α and IL-1β secretion as well as reduced mTOR and p-PI3K level (P <0.05). Melatonin addition significantly reversed the above changes (P <0.05). Melatonin can regulate oxidative stress, inhibit inflammation, and promote BMSCs proliferation and osteogenic differentiation in inflammatory environment by activating mTOR/PI3K/AKT signaling pathway.
