<a>Mesenchymal stem/stromal cells (MSC) facilitate repair in experimental diabetic kidney disease (DKD). However, the hyperglycemic and uremic milieu may diminish regenerative capacity of patient-derived therapy. We hypothesized that DKD reduces human MSC paracrine function. Adipose-derived MSC from 38 DKD participants and 16 controls were assessed for cell surface markers, tri-lineage differentiation, RNA-sequencing (RNA-seq), <i>in vitro</i> function (co-culture or conditioned medium experiments with T cells and human kidney cells [HK-2]), secretome profile, and cellular senescence abundance. The direction of association between MSC function and patient characteristics were also tested. RNA-seq analysis identified 353 differentially expressed genes and downregulation of several immunomodulatory genes/pathways in DKD- <i>vs</i>. Control-MSC. DKD-MSC phenotype, differentiation, and tube formation capacity were preserved but migration was reduced. DKD-MSC with and without interferon-γ priming inhibited T-cell proliferation greater than Control-MSC. DKD-MSC-medium contained higher levels of anti-inflammatory cytokines (indoleamine 2,3-deoxygenase-1 and prostaglandin-E2) and pro-repair factors (hepatocyte growth factor and stromal cell-derived factor-1) but lower Interleukin-6 vs. Control-MSC-medium. DKD-MSC-medium protected high glucose plus transforming growth factor-β-exposed HK-2 cells by reducing apoptotic, fibrotic and inflammatory marker expression. Few DKD-MSC functions were affected by patient characteristics including age, gender, body mass index, hemoglobin A1c, kidney function or urine albumin excretion. However, senescence-associated-β-galactosidase activity was lower in DKD-MSC from participants on metformin therapy. Therefore, while </a><a>DKD altered the transcriptome and migratory function of culture-expanded MSC, DKD-MSC functionality, trophic factor secretion and immunomodulatory activities contributing to repair remained intact. </a>These observations support testing patient-derived MSC therapy and may inform preconditioning regimens in DKD clinical trials.

Puberty accelerates microvascular complications of diabetes mellitus, including nephropathy. Animal studies confirm a different renal hypertrophic response to diabetes before and after puberty, probably due to differences in the production of transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β). Many of the complex physiological changes during puberty could affect potentially pathogenic mechanisms of diabetic kidney disease. Increased blood pressure, activation of the growth hormone-insulin-like growth factor I axis, and production of sex steroids could all play a role in pubertal susceptibility to diabetic renal hypertrophy and nephropathy. These factors may influence the effects of hyperglycemia and several systems that ultimately control TGF-β production, including the renin-angiotensin system, cellular redox systems, the polyol pathway, and protein kinase C. These phenomena may also explain gender differences in kidney function and incidence of end-stage renal disease. Normal changes during puberty, when coupled with diabetes and superimposed on a genetically susceptible milieu, are capable of accelerating diabetic hypertrophy and microvascular lesions. A better understanding of these processes may lead to new treatments to prevent renal failure in diabetes mellitus.
