A major challenge in cartilage repair is the lack of chondrogenic cells migrating from healthy tissue into damaged areas and strategies to promote this should be developed. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of peripheral blood derived mononuclear cell (PBMC) stimulation on mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) derived from the infrapatellar fat pad of human OA knee. Cell migration was measured using an xCELLigence electronic migration chamber system in combination with scratch assays. Gene expression was quantified with stem cell PCR arrays and validated using quantitative real-time PCR (rtPCR). In both migration assays PBMCs increased MSC migration by comparison to control. In scratch assay the wound closure was 55% higher after 3 hours in the PBMC stimulated test group (P=0.002), migration rate was 9 times faster (P=0.008), and total MSC migration was 25 times higher after 24 hours (P=0.014). Analysis of MSCs by PCR array demonstrated that PBMCs induced the upregulation of genes associated with chondrogenic differentiation over 15-fold. In conclusion, PBMCs increase both MSC migration and differentiation suggesting that they are an ideal candidate for inclusion in regenerative medicine therapies aimed at cartilage repair.

The objective of the study was to isolate, cultivate and characterize equine peripheral blood-derived multipotent mesenchymal stromal cells (PbMSCs). Peripheral blood was collected, followed by the isolation of mononuclear cells using density gradient reagents, and the cultivation of adherent cells. Monoclonal mouse anti-horse CD13, mouse anti-horse CD44, and mouse anti-rat CD90 antibodies were used for the immunophenotypic characterization of the surface of the PbMSCs. These cells were also cultured in specific media for adipogenic and chondrogenic differentiation. There was no expression of the CD13 marker, but CD44 and CD90 were expressed in all of the passages tested. After 14 days of cell differentiation into adipocytes, lipid droplets were observed upon Oil Red O (ORO) staining. Twenty-one days after chondrogenic differentiation, the cells were stained with Alcian Blue. Although the technique for the isolation of these cells requires improvement, the present study demonstrates the partial characterization of PbMSCs, classifying them as a promising type of progenitor cells for use in equine cell therapy.

Introduction: To investigate the influence of secretomes from native and dexamethasone-treated adipose-derived multipotent mesenchymal stromal cells (MMSC) on the proliferation of mononuclear cells (MNCs) and on their expression of phospho-NF-κB p65 in vitro. Materials and Methods: MMSCs were isolated from the fat of 5 healthy donors. The cells were grown in culture up to passage four, then treated with dexamethasone for 3 hours, washed off the preparations, and incubated in a serum-free medium for 48 hours. Some of the cells were not treated with dexamethasone. Supernatants from cell cultures were concentrated by ultrafiltration, standardized by the content of galectin-1, sterilized, and added to MNCs from peripheral blood of 8 healthy donors. MNCs were isolated in a Ficoll density gradient according to a standard protocol. The expression of phospho-NF-κB p65 and Ki-67 in MNCs under the influence of MMSC secretomes in isotypic and negative controls was determined on a flow cytometer. Results and Discussion: The expression of phospho-NF-kκB p65 and Ki-67 is decreased by the MMSC secretome. At the same time, a statistically significant decrease in phospho-NF-κB p65 by 36.2% (p < 0.05) is observed when using a secretome from native cells. Ki-67 expression is reduced by 42.3% (p < 0.05) under the influence of a secretome from dexamethasone-treated MMSCs. Conclusion: The MMSC secretome, as well as MMSCs themselves, has an anti-inflammatory effect due to the effect on the expression of the active form of NF-κB and the proliferative activity of mononuclear cells. At the same time, pretreatment of cells with dexamethasone reduces the effect on phospho-NF-κB expression and increases the inhibitory effect on MNC proliferation.
