Aiming to address a stable chondrogenesis derived from mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) to be applied in cartilage repair strategies at the onset of osteoarthritis (OA), we analyzed the effect of arginine–glycine–aspartate (RGD) density on cell condensation that occurs during the initial phase of chondrogenesis. For this, we seeded MSC-derived from OA and healthy (H) donors in RGD-dendrimer-poly(L-lactic) acid (PLLA) nanopatterned substrates (RGD concentrations of 4 × 10−9, 10−8, 2.5 × 10−8, and 10−2 w/w), during three days and compared to a cell pellet conventional three-dimensional culture system. Molecular gene expression (collagens type-I and II–COL1A1 and COL2A1, tenascin-TNC, sex determining region Y-box9-SOX9, and gap junction protein alpha 1–GJA1) was determined as well as the cell aggregates and pellet size, collagen type-II and connexin 43 proteins synthesis. This study showed that RGD-tailored first generation dendrimer (RGD-Cys-D1) PLLA nanopatterned substrates supported the formation of pre-chondrogenic condensates from OA- and H-derived human bone marrow-MSCs with enhanced chondrogenesis regarding the cell pellet conventional system (presence of collagen type-II and connexin 43, both at the gene and protein level). A RGD-density dependent trend was observed for aggregates size, in concordance with previous studies. Moreover, the nanopatterns’ had a higher effect on OA-derived MSC morphology, leading to the formation of bigger and more compact aggregates with improved expression of early chondrogenic markers.

Chondrocyte Phenotype

Articular chondrocytes are difficult to grow, as they lose their characteristic phenotype following expansion on standard tissue culture plates. Here, we show that culturing them on surfaces of poly(L-lactic acid) of well-defined microtopography allows expansion and maintenance of characteristic chondrogenic markers. We investigated the dynamics of human chondrocyte dedifferentiation on the different poly(L-lactic acid) microtopographies by the expression of collagen type I, collagen type II and aggrecan at different culture times. When seeded on poly(L-lactic acid), chondrocytes maintained their characteristic hyaline phenotype up to 7 days, which allowed to expand the initial cell population approximately six times without cell dedifferentiation. Maintenance of cell phenotype was afterwards correlated to cell adhesion on the different substrates. Chondrocytes adhesion occurs via the α5 β1 integrin on poly(L-lactic acid), suggesting cell–fibronectin interactions. However, α2 β1 integrin is mainly expressed on the control substrate after 1 day of culture, and the characteristic chondrocytic markers are lost (collagen type II expression is overcome by the synthesis of collagen type I). Expanding chondrocytes on poly(L-lactic acid) might be an effective solution to prevent dedifferentiation and improving the number of cells needed for autologous chondrocyte transplantation.

Adipose-derived stromal cells (ADSCs) can repair auricular cartilage defects. Furthermore, stem cell secretome may also be a promising biological therapeutic option, which is equal to or even superior to the stem cell. We explored the therapeutic efficacies of ADSCs and their secretome in terms of rabbit auricular cartilage regeneration. ADSCs and their secretome were placed into surgically created auricular cartilage defects. After 4 and 8 weeks, the resected auricles were histopathologically and immunohistochemically examined. We used real-time PCR to determine the levels of genes expressing collagen type II, transforming growth factor-β1 (TGF-β1), and insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1). ADSCs significantly improved auricular cartilage regeneration at 4 and 8 weeks, compared to the secretome and PBS groups, as revealed by gross examination, histopathologically and immunohistochemically. ADSCs upregulated the expression of collagen type II, TGF-β1, and IGF-1 more so than did the secretome or PBS. The expression levels of collagen type II and IGF-1 were significantly higher at 8 weeks than at 4 weeks after ADSC injection. Although ADSCs thus significantly enhanced new cartilage formation, their secretome did not. Therefore, ADSCs may be more effective than their secretome in the repair of auricular cartilage defect.

Defect Area

Adult mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are an attractive cell source for new treatment strategies in regenerative medicine. This study investigated the potential effect of matrix assisted MSC transplantation for articular cartilage regeneration in a large-animal model 8 weeks postoperatively. MSCs from bone marrow aspirates of eight Goettingen minipigs were isolated and expanded prior to surgery. Articular cartilage defects of 5.4 mm were created bilaterally in the medial patellar groove without penetrating the subchondral bone plate. Defects were either left empty ( n = 4), covered with a collagen type I/III membrane ( n = 6) or additionally treated with autologous MSC transplantation (2 × 106; n = 6). After 8 weeks animals were euthanized and the defect area was assessed for its gross appearance. Histomorphological analysis of the repair tissue included semiquantitative scoring (O'Driscoll score) and quantitative histomorphometric analysis for its glycosaminoglycan (GAG) and collagen type II content. All membranes were found to cover the defect area 8 weeks postoperatively. Median defect filling was 115.8% (membrane), 117.8% (empty), and 100.4% (MSC), respectively (not significant). Histomorphological scoring revealed significantly higher values in MSC-treated defects (median 16.5) when compared to membrane treatment (median 9.5) or empty defects (median 11.5; p = 0.015 and p = 0.038). Histomorphometric analysis showed larger GAG/collagen type II-positive areas in the MSC-treated group (median 24.6%/29.5% of regeneration tissue) compared to 13.6%/33.1% (empty defects) and 1.7%/6.2% (membrane group; p = 0.066). Cell distribution was more homogeneous in MSC compared to membrane-only group, where cells were found mainly near the subchondral zone. In conclusion, autologous matrix-assisted MSC transplantation significantly increased the histomorphological repair tissue quality during early articular cartilage defect repair and resulted in higher GAG/collagen type II-positive cross-sectional areas of the regenerated tissue.
