BACKGROUND: In stem cell therapy, due to the lack of an effective carrier, a large number of transplanted stem cells are lost and die. Therefore, finding a suitable carrier has become a further direction of stem cell therapy. OBJECTIVE: In research on the co-culture of polycaprolactone (PCL) with 1,1′-Dioctadecyl-3,3,3′,3′- tetramethylindocarbocyanine perchlorate (DiI) labeled bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs), we observe the effect of materials on the growth and proliferation of DiI labeled stem cells, and the effect of DiI labeling on patch preparation, so as to find a kind of biomaterial suitable for the growth and proliferation of BMSCs, and find a suitable cell carrier for stem cell therapy of myocardial infarction and in vivo tracing. METHODS: Clean grade Sprague Dawley rats were selected as experimental objects, BMSCs were isolated and cultured, and the surface markers were identified by flow cytometry. After the BMSCs were cultured for 3 passages, the BMSCs were stained with DiI dye, and the BMSCs DiI and PCL biomaterial film were co-cultured. After 24 hours, the cell growth was observed under fluorescence microscope, and fixed for scanning under electron microscope. The cell proliferation was detected by CCK-8 at 1, 4, 7, 10 days of culture. The measurement data conforming to normal distribution are expressed in the form of mean ± standard deviation (X¯± s). One way ANOVA was used for comparison among groups, LSD analysis was used for pairwise comparison. The difference was statistically significant (P < 0.05). RESULTS: BMSCs were strongly positive for CD90, CD44H, but negative for CD11b/c, CD45. Under fluorescence microscope, BMSCs DiI showed red light, fusiform or polygonal. Under the scanning electron microscope, the cell patch formed by co-culture of PCL film and DiI-BMSCs had a large number of cells on the surface and normal cell state. CCK-8 assay showed that the OD value on the first day was 0.330 ± 0.025; The OD value was 0.620 ± 0.012 on the 4th day, 1.033 ± 0.144 on the 7th day and 1.223 ± 0.133 on the 10th day. There was significant difference among the time points (P < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS: The cell patch made of PCL film and DiI labeled BMSCs can survive and proliferate on the surface, so it can be used as a scaffold material for stem cell therapy in vivo.

Human mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) communicate with other cells in the human body and appear to “home” to areas of injury in response to signals of cellular damage, known as homing signals. This review of the state of current research on homing of MSCs suggests that favorable cellular conditions and thein vivoenvironment facilitate and are required for the migration of MSCs to the site of insult or injuryin vivo. We review the current understanding of MSC migration and discuss strategies for enhancing both the environmental and cellular conditions that give rise to effective homing of MSCs. This may allow MSCs to quickly find and migrate to injured tissues, where they may best exert clinical benefits resulting from improved homing and the presence of increased numbers of MSCs.

Abstract Background With the development of regenerative medicine and tissue engineering technology, almost all stem cell therapy is efficacious for the treatment of premature ovarian failure (POF) or premature ovarian insufficiency (POI) animal models, whereas little stem cell therapy has been practiced in clinical settings. The underlying molecular mechanism and safety of stem cell treatment in POI are not fully understood. In this study, we explored whether fetal mesenchymal stem cells (fMSCs) from the liver restore ovarian function and whether melatonin membrane receptor 1 (MT1) acts as a regulator for treating POI disease. Methods We designed an in vivo model (chemotherapy-induced ovary damage) and an in vitro model (human ovarian granulosa cells (hGCs)) to understand the efficacy and molecular cues of fMSC treatment of POI. Follicle development was observed by H&E staining. The concentration of sex hormones in serum (E2, AMH, and FSH) and the concentration of oxidative and antioxidative metabolites and the enzymes MDA, SOD, CAT, LDH, GR, and GPx were measured by ELISA. Flow cytometry (FACS) was employed to detect the percentages of ROS and proliferation rates. mRNA and protein expression of antiapoptotic genes (SURVIVIN and BCL2), apoptotic genes (CASPASE-3 and CASPASE-9), and MT1 and its downstream genes (JNK1, PCNA, AMPK) were tested by qPCR and western blotting. MT1 siRNA and related antagonists were used to assess the mechanism. Results fMSC treatment prevented cyclophosphamide (CTX)-induced follicle loss and recovered sex hormone levels. Additionally, fMSCs significantly decreased oxidative damage, increased oxidative protection, improved antiapoptotic effects, and inhibited apoptotic genes in vivo and in vitro. Furthermore, fMSCs also upregulated MT1, JNK1, PCNA, and AMPK at the mRNA and protein levels. With MT1 knockdown or antagonist treatment in normal hGCs, the protein expression of JNK1, PCNA, and AMPK and the percentage of proliferation were impaired. Conclusions fMSCs might play a crucial role in mediating follicular development in the POI mouse model and stimulating the activity of POI hGCs by targeting MT1.

Background: Skeletal muscle injuries are very common in sports medicine. Conventional therapies have limited clinical efficacy. New treatment methods should be developed to allow athletes to return to play with better function. Purpose: To evaluate the in vitro differentiation potential of bone marrow–derived mesenchymal stem cells and the in vivo histologic and physiologic effects of mesenchymal stem cell therapy on muscle healing after contusion injury. Study Design: Controlled laboratory study. Methods: Bone marrow cells were flushed from both femurs of 5-week-old C57BL/6 mice to establish immortalized mesenchymal stem cell lines. A total of 36 mice aged 8 to 10 weeks were used to develop a muscle contusion model and were divided into 6 groups (6 mice/group) on the basis of the different dosages of IM2 cells to be injected (0, 1.25 × 105, and 2.5 × 105 cells with/without F-127 in 100 μL of phosphate-buffered saline). Histological analysis of muscle regeneration was performed, and the fast-twitch and tetanus strength of the muscle contractions was measured 28 days after muscle contusion injury, after injections of different doses of mesenchymal stem cells with or without the F-127 scaffold beginning 14 days after contusion injury. Results: The mesenchymal stem cell–treated muscles exhibited numerous regenerating myofibers. All the groups treated with mesenchymal stem cells (1.25 × 105 cells, 2.5 × 105 cells, 1.25 × 105 cells plus F-127, and 2.5 × 105 cells plus F-127) exhibited a significantly higher number of regenerating myofibers (mean ± SD: 111.6 ± 14.77, 133.4 ± 21.44, 221.89 ± 32.65, and 241.5 ± 25.95, respectively) as compared with the control group and the control with F-127 (69 ± 18.79 and 63.2 ± 18.98). The physiologic evaluation of fast-twitch and tetanus strength did not reveal differences between the age-matched uninjured group and the groups treated with various doses of mesenchymal stem cells 28 days after contusion. Significant differences were found between the control group and the groups treated with various doses of mesenchymal stem cells after muscle contusion. Conclusion: Mesenchymal stem cell therapy increased the number of regenerating myofibers and improved fast-twitch and tetanus muscle strength in a mouse model of muscle contusion. However, the rapid decay of transplanted mesenchymal stem cells suggests a paracrine effect of this action. Treatment with mesenchymal stem cells at various doses combined with the F-127 scaffold is a potential therapy for a muscle contusion. Clinical Relevance: Mesenchymal stem cell therapy has an effect on sports medicine because of its effects on myofiber regeneration and muscle strength after contusion injury.

BACKGROUND: Stem cell-based therapy is one of the newest and evolving techniques in reproductive medicine. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of allogeneic bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BM-MSCs) transplantation on the testis of busulfan induced azoospermia in Balb/C mice.METHODS: Eighteen adult Balb/C mice were divided into three equal groups including control, busulfan and busulfan+cell therapy (busul+CT). For induction of azoospermia, busulfan and busul+CT groups received two injections of 10 mg/Kg of busulfan intraperitoneally with 21 days interval. In the cell therapy group 35 days after the last injection of busulfan, cluster of differentiation (CD)90+/CD34-/CD45- BM-MSCs were injected into the efferent duct of testis. Eight weeks after the BM-MSCs therapy, mice were sacrificed and tissues were taken for histological and histomorphometric evaluations.RESULTS: In busul+CT group, cellular and total diameters and cellular and cross-sectional areas significantly increased in comparison to busulfan group (p˂0.001), but there were no significant differences between busul+CT and control group (p˃0.05). Numerical density and tubular count per area unit in busul+CT and control groups were significantly less than busulfan group (p˂0.001), but there were no significant difference between busul+CT and control group (p˃0.05). The luminal diameter and area showed no significant change in all groups (p˃0.05). In busul+CT group, spermatogenesis index significantly increased when compared to busulfan and control groups (p˂0.001 and p˂0.05, respectively).CONCLOSION: Histomorphometric findings showed CD90+/CD34-/CD45- BM-MSCs transplantation on the testis of busulfan-induced azoospermic in Balb/C mice recovered spermatogenesis.KEYWORDS: mesenchymal stem cell, cell therapy, azoospermia, busulfan, mouse
