BACKGROUND: Research on human bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (hBM-MSCs) for burns healing has been known to increase the percentage of integrin expression of α2β1, type I collagen, transforming growth factor-β, and matrix metalloproteinases-9, but research on giving hBM-MSCs to growth factor expression in the process of re-epithelialization of burn healing has not been done. AIM: This study aims to the effect of hBM-MSCs given on the expression of epidermal growth factor (EGF) and EGF receptor (EGFR) in the process re-epithelialization in the healing of burn experimental rat. MATERIALS AND METHODS: This research is experimental with the post-test only control design, using 30 Wistar rats. Rats were divided into two groups, namely, control (phosphate-buffered saline), and the treatment was given hBM-MSCs, and stem cells were given subcutaneous doses of 2 × 106 cells/ml. Before being treated rats were anesthetized using xylazine and ketamine then the rats were burned in the dorsal (spine) with full-thickness. On the 3, 7, and 14 days, skin tissue was taken to see the expression of EGF and EGFR by immunohistochemical methods. This study was approved by the Ethics Commission of the Faculty of Medicine, Andalas University, Padang. The results of the study were analyzed by the t-test. RESULTS: Immunohistochemical examination of EGF and EGFR expressions after hBM-MSCs administration has significantly increased epithelialization compared with controls. Increased EGF expression was found on days 3 and 7 with moderate positive internal revenue service (IRS) assessment and on day 14 strong positive EGF expression, as well as EGFR expression on days 3 and 7 with moderate positive IRS assessment and on day 14 robust positive EGFR expression. CONCLUSION: This study concluded that giving of hBM-MSCs can increase the expression of EGF and EGFR which enhances the process of re-epithelialization thereby accelerating the healing of burns of experimental rats.

Background: Human bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (hBMSCs) could differentiate into dopamine-producing cells and ameliorate behavioral deficits in Parkinson’s disease (PD) models. Liver X receptors (LXRs) are involved in the maintenance of the normal function of central nervous system myelin. Therefore, the previous work of our team has found the induction of cocktail-induced to dopaminergic (DA) phenotypes from adult rat BMSCs by using sonic hedgehog (SHH), fibroblast growth factor 8 (FGF8), basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF), and TO901317 (an agonist of LXRs) with 87.42% of efficiency in a 6-day induction period. But we did not verify whether the induced cells had the corresponding neural function. Methods: Expressions of LXRα, LXRβ, and tyrosine hydroxylase (TH) were detected by immunofluorescence and western blot. Adenosine triphosphate-binding cassette transporter A1 (ABCA1) was detected by quantitative real-time PCR. The induced cells were transplanted into PD rats to study whether the induced cells are working. Results: The induced cells can release the dopamine transmitter; the maximum induction efficiency of differentiation of hBMSCs into DA neurons was 91.67% under conditions of combined use with TO901317 and growth factors (GF). When the induced-cells were transplanted into PD rats, the expression of TH in the striatum increased significantly, and the behavior of PD rats induced by apomorphine was significantly improved. Conclusion: The induced cells have the function of DA neurons and have the potential to treat PD. TO901317 promoted differentiation of hBMSCs into DA neurons, which may be related to activation of the LXR-ABCA1 signaling pathway.

Tissue engineering strategies can be relevant for cartilage repair and regeneration. A collagen matrix was functionalized with the addition of poly-lactic-co-glycolic acid microcarriers (PLGA-MCs) carrying a human Transforming Growth Factor β1 (hTFG-β1) payload, to provide a 3D biomimetic environment with the capacity to direct stem cell commitment towards a chondrogenic phenotype. PLGA-MCs (mean size 3 ± 0.9 μm) were prepared via supercritical emulsion extraction technology and tailored to sustain delivery of payload into the collagen hydrogel for 21 days. PLGA-MCs were coseeded with human Bone Marrow Mesenchymal Stem Cells (hBM-MSCs) in the collagen matrix. Chondrogenic induction was suggested when dynamic perfusion was applied as indicated by transcriptional upregulation of COL2A1 gene (5-fold; p < 0.01) and downregulation of COL1A1 (0.07-fold; p < 0.05) and COL3A1 (0.11-fold; p < 0.05) genes, at day 16, as monitored by qRT-PCR. Histological and quantitative-immunofluorescence (qIF) analysis confirmed cell activity by remodeling the synthetic extracellular matrix when cultured in perfused conditions. Static constructs lacked evidence of chondrogenic specific gene overexpression, which was probably due to a reduced mass exchange, as determined by 3D system Finite Element Modelling (FEM) analysis. Proinflammatory (IL-6, TNF, IL-12A, IL-1β) and anti-inflammatory (IL-10, TGF-β1) cytokine gene expression by hBM-MSC was observed only in dynamic culture (TNF and IL-1β 10-fold, p < 0.001; TGF-β1 4-fold, p < 0.01 at Day 16) confirming the cells’ immunomodulatory activity mainly in relation to their commitment and not due to the synthetic environment. This study supports the use of 3D hydrogel scaffolds, equipped for growth factor controlled delivery, as tissue engineered models for the study of in vitro chondrogenic differentiation and opens clinical perspectives for injectable collagen-based advanced therapy systems.
