Autophagy plays a critical role in stem cell maintenance and is related to cell growth and cellular senescence. It is important to find a quality-control marker for predicting senescent cells. This study verified that CD47 could be a candidate to select efficient mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) to enhance the therapeutic effects of stem cell therapy by analyzing the antibody surface array. CD47 expression was significantly decreased during the expansion of MSCs in vitro ( p < 0.01 ), with decreased CD47 expression correlated with accelerated senescence phenotype, which affected cell growth. UCB-MSCs transfected with CD47 siRNA significantly triggered the downregulation of pRB and upregulation of pp38, which are senescence-related markers. Additionally, autophagy-related markers, ATG5, ATG12, Beclin1, and LC3B, revealed significant downregulation with CD47 siRNA transfection. Furthermore, autophagy flux following treatment with an autophagy inducer, rapamycin, has shown that CD47 is a key player in autophagy and senescence to maintain and regulate the growth of MSCs, suggesting that CD47 may be a critical key marker for the selection of effective stem cells in cell therapy.

Abstract Members of the interferon inducible-200 (IFI-200) family of proteins inhibit cell growth and may be important mediators of differentiation. We examined IFI-204 and IFI-205 mRNA expression in purified populations of hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells at different stages of maturation using quantitative RT-PCR and found that their expression markedly increased during myeloid maturation. To evaluate the effect of IFI-205 and IFI-204 on hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) growth, we transduced these genes into mouse bone marrow cells (BMC) using retroviral vectors. The presence IFI-204 or IFI-205 resulted in a decrease in cell growth in response to hematopoietic growth factors. Further analysis revealed the infected cells were 98% c-Kit+ Sca-1+, indicative of the stem cell surface phenotype, suggesting they may be blocked in a primitive stage of maturation. When transplanted, BMC transduced with IFI-204 or IFI-205 failed to engraft lymphoid, myeloid, or erythroid lineages in both short and long term reconstitution assays, suggesting that constitutive expression of IFI-204 and IFI-205 inhibited HSC development both in vitro and in vivo. However, based on the quantitative RT-PCR results, which show that IFI-205 increased during myeloid differentiation, we know its endogenous, regulated expression must permit the cells to mature. Therefore, to study of the effects of these genes on differentiation we transduced the mulitpotential EML (erythroid, myeloid, lymphoid) cell line with IFI-204 and IFI-205 to circumvent severe growth inhibition caused by expression of IFI-204 and Ifi-205 in normal cells. Single cell analysis of EMLs transduced with IFI-205 demonstrated that expression of IFI-205 in this cell line did not significantly inhibit cell growth. We have isolated EML clones from the transduced cells and verified IFI-205 expression. In addition, we generated transgenic mice that express IFI-205 under control of the Vav and MRP8 promoters, and we identified transgenic lines that express IFI-205 at higher levels compared to wild type controls. Analysis of hematopoiesis in these animals is currently in progress. Altogether, our data demonstrate 3 findings: 1) IFI-204 and IFI-205 expression increases during myeloid development based on quantitative RT-PCR analysis, 2) constitutive expression of IFI-204 and -205 results in potent inhibition of growth and maturation of normal hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells in vivo and in vitro and 3) these genes did not significantly inhibit the proliferation of the EML cell line, which provides us with a means to study the mechanism by which these molecules regulate myeloid maturation. Finally, the considerable inhibitory effects of these family members on normal hematopoietic cell growth suggest their potential as therapeutic modalities for treatment of leukemia.

Background: The morphogen Sonic Hedgehog (SHh) and its signaling pathway components are significantly up-regulated within adventitial and medial segments from arteriosclerotic vessels in mice concomitant with enhanced accumulation of SMCs. This vessel remodelling is attenuated in vivo following Hh receptor, Patched 1, depletion. There is evidence supporting a role for stem cell-derived vascular smooth muscle (vSMCs) in contributing to arteriosclerotic vascular disease. In this context, SHh signaling may be an important regulator of stem cell self-renewal and differentiation to SMC in vitro. Aim: Determine the effects of SHh on bone-marrow derived mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) differentiation to SMC in vitro. Methods: Murine CD44+ bone-marrow derived MSCs and Sca1+ rat adventitial progenitor stem cells (APCs) were examined for SHh components and their capacity to differentiate to SMCs before and after treatment with sonic hedgehog (rSHh, 0.5 μg/ml) for 7 d, in the absence or presence of Hh inhibitors cyclopamine (10μM) or HPI-4 (50μM). The transition to SMC was determined be examining intermediate (calponin1, CNN1) and late (myosin heavy chain, Myh11) SMC differentiation marker expression by western blot analysis and immunocytochemistry, respectively. Results: Hh signaling components were present on MSCs and APCs. Stem cell growth was unaffected by treatment with Hh inhibitors cyclopamine or HPI-4 at concentrations that inhibited Gli signalling in vitro. Recombinant SHh increased SMC differentiation marker protein protein expression after 7 days, an effect that was inhibited following SHh inhibition with smoothened inhibitors cyclopamine and HPI-4. Conclusion: in the absence of any effect on cell growth, Sonic Hedgehog controls mesenchymal stem-like cell differentiation to SMC.

Abstract Millions suffer from skin diseases. Functional interfollicular epidermal stem cells are needed in skin therapy or drug screening in vitro. We obtained functional interfollicular epidermal stem cells with intact stemness and cell junctions by treating them with Wnt3a. Moreover, epidermal stem cell-derived extracellular vesicles were useful in epidermal cell growth. Finally, functional epidermal 3D organoids with polarity were cultured using Wnt3a and the supernatant derived from interfollicular epidermal stem cells and fresh medium in a 1:1 ratio. These results provide novel directions for the improvement of skin organoids and their potential in clinical application.
