Background: Sufficient blood vessel formation in bioengineered tissues is essential in order to keep the viability of the organs. Impaired development of blood vasculatures results in failure of the implanted tissue. The cellular source which is seeded in the scaffold is one of the crucial factors involved in tissue engineering methods. Materials and methods: Considering the notable competence of Bone Marrow derived Mesenchymal Stem Cell aggregates for tissue engineering purposes, in this study BM-aggregates and expanded BM-MSCs were applied without any inductive agent or co-cultured cells, in order to investigate their own angiogenesis potency in vivo. BM-aggregates and BM-MSC were seeded in Poly-L Lactic acid (PLLA) scaffold and implanted in the peritoneal cavity of mice. Result: Immunohistochemistry results indicated that there was a significant difference ( p < 0.050) in CD31+ cells between PLLA scaffolds contained cultured BM-MSC; PLLA scaffolds contained BM-aggregates and empty PLLA. According to morphological evidence, obvious connections with recipient vasculature and acceptable integration with surroundings were established in MSC and aggregate-seeded scaffolds. Conclusion: Our findings revealed cultured BM-MSC and BM-aggregates, capacity in order to develop numerous connections between PLLA scaffold and recipient’s vasculature which is crucial to the survival of tissues, and considerable tendency to develop constructs containing CD31+ endothelial cells which can contribute in vessel’s tube formation.

Cell replacement therapy using mesenchymal (MSC) and other stem cells has been evaluated for diabetic retinopathy and glaucoma. This approach has significant limitations, including few cells integrated, aberrant growth, and surgical complications. Mesenchymal Stem Cell Exosomes/Extracellular Vesicles (MSC EVs), which include exosomes and microvesicles, are an emerging alternative, promoting immunomodulation, repair, and regeneration by mediating MSC’s paracrine effects. For the clinical translation of EV therapy, it is important to determine the cellular destination and time course of EV uptake in the retina following administration. Here, we tested the cellular fate of EVs using in vivo rat retinas, ex vivo retinal explant, and primary retinal cells. Intravitreally administered fluorescent EVs were rapidly cleared from the vitreous. Retinal ganglion cells (RGCs) had maximal EV fluorescence at 14 days post administration, and microglia at 7 days. Both in vivo and in the explant model, most EVs were no deeper than the inner nuclear layer. Retinal astrocytes, microglia, and mixed neurons in vitro endocytosed EVs in a dose-dependent manner. Thus, our results indicate that intravitreal EVs are suited for the treatment of retinal diseases affecting the inner retina. Modification of the EV surface should be considered for maintaining EVs in the vitreous for prolonged delivery.

Objectives: Treatment of vocal fold scarring remains a therapeutic challenge. Our group previously reported the efficacy of treating injured vocal folds by implantation of bone marrow—derived stromal cells containing mesenchymal stem cells. Appropriate scaffolding is necessary for the stem cell implant to achieve optimal results. Terudermis is an atelocollagen sponge derived from calf dermis. It has large pores that permit cellular entry and is degraded in vivo. These characteristics suggest that this material may be a good candidate for use as scaffolding for implantation of cells. The present in vitro study investigated the feasibility of using Terudermis as such a scaffold. Methods: Bone marrow—derived stromal cells were obtained from GFP (green fluorescent protein) mouse femurs. The cells were seeded into Terudermis and incubated for 5 days. Their survival, proliferation, and expression of extracellular matrix were examined. Results: Bone marrow—derived stromal cells adhered to Terudermis and underwent significant proliferation. Immunohistochemical examination demonstrated that adherent cells were positive for expression of vimentin, desmin, fibronectin, and fsp1 and negative for beta III tubulin. These findings indicate that these cells were mesodermal cells and attached to the atelocollagen fibers biologically. Conclusions: The data suggest that Terudermis may have potential as stem cell implantation scaffolding for the treatment of scarred vocal folds.

The present study investigated the in vitro antibacterial, antibiofilm and anti-Quorum Sensing (anti-QS) activities of canine bone marrow mesenchymal stem cell-conditioned media (cBM MSC CM) containing all secreted factors <30 K, using a disc diffusion test (DDT), spectrophotometric Crystal Violet Assay (SCVA) and Bioluminescence Assay (BA) with QS-reporter Escherichia coli JM109 pSB1142. The results show a sample-specific bacterial growth inhibition (zones varied between 7–30 mm), statistically significant modulation of biofilm-associated Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli bioluminescence (0.391 ± 0.062 in the positive control to the lowest 0.150 ± 0.096 in the experimental group, cf. 11,714 ± 1362 to 7753 ± 700, given as average values of absorbance A550 ± SD versus average values of relative light units to growth RLU/A550 ± SD). The proteomic analysis performed in our previous experiment revealed the presence of several substances with documented antibacterial, antibiofilm and immunomodulatory properties (namely, apolipoprotein B and D; amyloid-β peptide; cathepsin B; protein S100-A4, galectin 3, CLEC3A, granulin, transferrin). This study highlights that cBM MSC CM may represent an important new approach to managing biofilm-associated and QS signal molecule-dependent bacterial infections. To the best of our knowledge, there is no previous documentation of canine BM MSC CM associated with in vitro antibiofilm and anti-QS activity.

Abstract Stem cell factor (SCF) is expressed as an integral membrane growth factor that may be differentially processed to produce predominantly soluble (S) (SCF248) or membrane-associated (MA) (SCF220) protein. A critical role for membrane presentation of SCF in the hematopoietic microenvironment (HM) has been suggested from the phenotype of the Steel-dickie(Sld) mice, which lack MA SCF, and by studies performed in our laboratory (and by others) using long-term bone marrow cultures and transgenic mice expressing different SCF isoforms.Steel17H (Sl17H) is an SCF mutant that demonstrates melanocyte defects and sterility in males but not in females. The Sl17H allele contains a intronic mutation resulting in the substitution of 36 amino acids (aa’s) in the SCF cytoplasmic domain with 28 novel aa’s. This mutation, which affects virtually the entire cytoplasmic domain of SCF, could be expected to alter membrane SCF presentation. To investigate this possibility, we examined the biochemical and biologic properties of the Sl17H-encoded protein and its impact in vivo and in vitro on hematopoiesis and on c-Kit signaling. We demonstrate that compound heterozygous Sl/Sl17H mice manifest multiple hematopoietic abnormalities in vivo, including red blood cell deficiency, bone marrow hypoplasia, and defective thymopoiesis. In vitro, both S and MA Sl17H isoforms of SCF exhibit reduced cell surface expression on stromal cells and diminished biological activity in comparison to wild-type (wt) SCF isoforms. These alterations in presentation and biological activity are associated with a significant reduction in the proliferation of an SCF-responsive erythroid progenitor cell line and in the activation of phosphatidylinositol 3-Kinase/Akt and mitogen-activated protein-Kinase signaling pathways. In vivo, transgene expression of the membrane-restricted (MR) (SCFX9/D3) SCF in Sl/Sl17H mutants results in a significant improvement in peripheral red blood cell counts in comparison toSl/Sl17H mice.

Abstract Background Although transplantation of human Adipose-derived Mesenchymal stem cell (hADSC) shows efficacy in the treatment of ischemic cardiomyopathy, its therapeutic mechanisms have not been fully elucidated. It has been already reported that mitochondria transfer to recipient cells have impact on resistance to injury and tissue regeneration, however this phenomenon has not been elucidated in the damaged heart. Therefore, we hypothesized that ADSC transfer own mitochondria to cardiomyocytes in-vivo and in-vitro under ischemic condition, resulting in the functional recovery of cardiomyocyte. Method and result Transplantation of hADSC (group A) to the heart surface or sham operation (group C) was performed in rats that were subjected to LAD ligation 2 weeks prior to the treatment (n=10 each). The number of transplant cell was 1x106/body. Three days after transplantation, transferred hADSCs' mitochondria were observed in recipient cardiomyocytes histologically (Figure). Quantitative PCR analysis revealed that mitochondrial genome of recipient myocytes increased over time. The cardiac function assessed with echocardiography was significantly better in group A. Furthermore, live-imaging of hADSC transplantation revealed the suspected transfer of mitochondria to beating heart. In-vitro, the co-culture of rat cardiomyocytes (rCM) and hADSC was observed with time-lapse photography and demonstrated mitochondrial transfer under the hypoxic condition. The measuring the oxygen consumption rate (OCR) of these cells showed that OCR of rCM was reinforced by co-culture with hADSC conspicuously. Figure 1 Conclusion Mitochondrial transfer from hADSC to rCM was suggested in-vivo and in-vitro ischemic condition and suspected to be related to functional recovery of ischemic cardiomyocyte.
