Abstract Background. Cancer stem cells (CSCs) use their stemness properties such as self renewal, toxicity, plasticity, and communication with the tumor microenvironment (TME) to perpetuate their lineage and survive chemotherapy. Learning how to interrupt the self renewal ability or modulate the interaction of CSCs with the TME signaling will dramatically improve therapeutic impact on patient’s remission. Anti-tumor properties of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are currently under investigations and different approaches have been applied to gain beneficial effects However, different types of MSCs yielded different conflicting results. In order to investigate if different types of MSCs preconditioned in the same culture conditions can exert alike anti oncogenic effect on glioma stem cells, we planned this study. Methods. GSCs were isolated from U87 cell line by FACS cell sorter, characterized and established as gliospheres. Condition media from MSCs of Wharton Jelly (WJ-MSCs) and bone marrow (BM-MSCs) were harvested and used as treatments on glioshperes (3D) to investigate the effect on proliferation, invasion and self renewal properties of GSCs. Microarray analysis was used to determine the effect at molecular level. Specific human CSC gene arrays were applied to validate the findings of the microarray explicitly the pluripotency of the GSCs. Results. Our results from functional and molecular assays showed that condition media (CM) from both types of MSCs inhibited the metabolism by interrupting oxidative phosphorylation, arrested the cell cycle, induced cell differentiation, targeted the pluripotency and up-regulated the immune response in GSCs. Moreover , condition media from both types of MSCs significantly affected the same genes (KITLG and DKK1) causing a similar effect while using slightly different routes and signaling pathways signifying their individual effects.Conclusion.We conclude that mesenchymal stem cells possess antitumor properties and paracrine factors of mesenchymal stem cells in combination with anti-immune modalities can provide novel therapeutic targets for glioma treatment.

Hydrogel Encapsulation

Tissue engineering has been an inveterate area in the field of regenerative medicine for several decades. However, there remains limitations to engineer and regenerate tissues. Targeted therapies using cell-encapsulated hydrogels, such as mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs), are capable of reducing inflammation and increasing the regenerative potential in several tissues. In addition, the use of MSC-derived nano-scale secretions (i.e., exosomes) has been promising. Exosomes originate from the multivesicular division of cells and have high therapeutic potential, yet neither self-replicate nor cause auto-immune reactions to the host. To maintain their biological activity and allow a controlled release, these paracrine factors can be encapsulated in biomaterials. Among the different types of biomaterials in which exosome infusion is exploited, hydrogels have proven to be the most user-friendly, economical, and accessible material. In this paper, we highlight the importance of MSCs and MSC-derived exosomes in tissue engineering and the different biomaterial strategies used in fabricating exosome-based biomaterials, to facilitate hard and soft tissue engineering.

AbstractBoth weak survival ability of stem cells and hostile microenvironment are dual dilemma for cell therapy. Adropin, a bioactive substance, has been demonstrated to be cytoprotective. We therefore hypothesized that adropin may produce dual protective effects on the therapeutic potential of stem cells in myocardial infarction by employing an adropin-based dual treatment of promoting stem cell survival in vitro and modifying microenvironment in vivo. In the current study, adropin (25 ng/ml) in vitro reduced hydrogen peroxide-induced apoptosis in rat bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) and improved MSCs survival with increased phosphorylation of Akt and extracellular regulated protein kinases (ERK) l/2. Adropin-induced cytoprotection was blocked by the inhibitors of Akt and ERK1/2. The left main coronary artery of rats was ligated for 3 or 28 days to induce myocardial infarction. Bromodeoxyuridine (BrdU)-labeled MSCs, which were in vitro pretreated with adropin, were in vivo intramyocardially injected after ischemia, following an intravenous injection of 0.2 mg/kg adropin (dual treatment). Compared with MSCs transplantation alone, the dual treatment with adropin reported a higher level of interleukin-10, a lower level of tumor necrosis factor-α and interleukin-1β in plasma at day 3, and higher left ventricular ejection fraction and expression of paracrine factors at day 28, with less myocardial fibrosis and higher capillary density, and produced more surviving BrdU-positive cells at day 3 and 28. In conclusion, our data evidence that adropin-based dual treatment may enhance the therapeutic potential of MSCs to repair myocardium through paracrine mechanism via the pro-survival pathways.

AbstractNecrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) is a devastating disease predominately affecting neonates. Despite therapeutic advances, NEC remains the leading cause of mortality due to gastrointestinal conditions in neonates. Stem cells have been exploited in various diseases, and the application of different types of stem cells in the NEC therapy is explored in the past decade. However, stem cell transplantation possesses several deficiencies, and exosomes are considered potent alternatives. Exosomes, especially those derived from stem cells and breast milk, demonstrate beneficial effects for NEC both in vivo and in vitro and emerge as promising options for clinical practice. In this review, the function and therapeutic effects of stem cells and exosomes for NEC are investigated and summarized, which provide insights for the development and application of novel therapeutic strategies in pediatric diseases. Further elucidation of mechanisms, improvement in preparation, bioengineering, and administration, as well as rigorous clinical trials are warranted.

AbstractArticular cartilage is susceptible to damage but hard to self-repair due to its avascular nature. Traditional treatment methods are not able to produce satisfactory effects. Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) have shown great promise in cartilage repair. However, the therapeutic effect of MSCs is often unstable partly due to their heterogeneity. Understanding the heterogeneity of MSCs and the potential of different types of MSCs for cartilage regeneration will facilitate the selection of superior MSCs for treating cartilage damage. This review provides an overview of the heterogeneity of MSCs at the donor, tissue source and cell immunophenotype levels, including their cytological properties, such as their ability for proliferation, chondrogenic differentiation and immunoregulation, as well as their current applications in cartilage regeneration. This information will improve the precision of MSC-based therapeutic strategies, thus maximizing the efficiency of articular cartilage repair.
