AbstractBone marrow-derived mesenchymal stromal cells (BM-MSCs) are gaining increasing importance in the field of regenerative medicine. Although therapeutic value of MSCs is now being established through many clinical trials, issues have been raised regarding their expansion as per regulatory guidelines. Fetal bovine serum usage in cell therapy poses difficulties due to its less-defined, highly variable composition and safety issues. Hence, there is a need for transition from serum-based to serum-free media (SFM). Since SFM are cell type-specific, a precise analysis of the properties of MSCs cultured in SFM is required to determine the most suitable one. Six different commercially available low serum/SFM with two different seeding densities were evaluated to explore their ability to support the growth and expansion of BM-MSCs and assess the characteristics of BM-MSCs cultured in these media. Except for one of the SFM, all other media tested supported the growth of BM-MSCs at a low seeding density. No significant differences were observed in the expression of MSC specific markers among the various media tested. In contrary, the population doubling time, cell yield, potency, colony-forming ability, differentiation potential, and immunosuppressive properties of MSCs varied with one another. We show that SFM tested supports the growth and expansion of BM-MSCs even at low seeding density and may serve as possible replacement for animal-derived serum.

Abstract Background Mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) are a potential therapeutic tool for pulmonary fibrosis. However, ex vivo MSC expansion using serum poses risks of harmful immune responses or unknown pathogen infections in the recipients. Therefore, MSCs cultured in serum-free media (SF-MSCs) are ideal for clinical settings; however, their efficacy in pulmonary fibrosis is unknown. Here, we investigated the effects of SF-MSCs on bleomycin-induced pulmonary inflammation and fibrosis compared to those of MSCs cultured in serum-containing media (S-MSCs). Methods SF-MSCs and S-MSCs were characterized in vitro using RNA sequence analysis. The in vivo kinetics and efficacy of SF-MSC therapy were investigated using a murine model of bleomycin-induced pulmonary fibrosis. For normally distributed data, Student’s t test and one-way repeated measures analysis of variance followed by post hoc Tukey’s test were used for comparison between two groups and multiple groups, respectively. For non-normally distributed data, Kruskal–Wallis and Mann–Whitney U tests were used for comparison between groups, using e Bonferroni’s correction for multiple comparisons. All tests were two-sided, and P < 0.05 was considered statistically significant. Results Serum-free media promoted human bone marrow-derived MSC expansion and improved lung engraftment of intravenously administered MSCs in recipient mice. SF-MSCs inhibited the reduction in serum transforming growth factor-β1 and the increase of interleukin-6 in both the serum and the bronchoalveolar lavage fluid during bleomycin-induced pulmonary fibrosis. SF-MSC administration increased the numbers of regulatory T cells (Tregs) in the blood and lungs more strongly than in S-MSC administration. Furthermore, SF-MSCs demonstrated enhanced antifibrotic effects on bleomycin-induced pulmonary fibrosis, which were diminished by antibody-mediated Treg depletion. Conclusions SF-MSCs significantly suppressed BLM-induced pulmonary inflammation and fibrosis through enhanced induction of Tregs into the lungs and corrected the dysregulated cytokine balance. Therefore, SF-MSCs could be a useful tool for preventing pulmonary fibrosis progression without the demerits of serum use.

The article presents a comparative analysis of the clinical effectiveness of bone augmentation materials, in particular, compositions including multipotent mesenchymal stromal cells of adipose tissue and platelet-enriched plasma, used to fill bone defects during the operation of third molars extraction. The criteria for the effectiveness of treatment at the stage of the early postoperative period in the participants included the assessment of the pain intensity, collateral oedema and hyperaemia of the oral mucosa after the surgery. The aim of the study is to determine the clinical efficiency of osteoplastic materials and to determine the feasibility of using tissue equivalents of bone tissue based on multipotent mesenchymal stromal cells of adipose tissue for healing of bone defects in patients with impacted third molars. Methods and participants. The study was conducted on the basis of the Department of Surgical Dentistry and Maxillofacial Surgery of Bukovynian State Medical University, Chernivtsi, Ukraine. Extraction of impacted third molars surgery was performed on 72 patients. After the tooth extraction, 31.94% of them underwent bone augmentation by osteoplastic material “Colapan–L” (group A); 41.67% of patients had bone augmentation with a combination of multipotent mesenchymal stromal cells of adipose tissue+”Colapan–L”+platelet-rich plasma (group B), and in the rest, 26.39% of patients, wound healing occurred under a blood clot (group C). Postoperative pain syndrome was assessed using the Numerical Rating Scale (NRS) based on patients' subjective feeling of pain. Visual assessment of the severity of collateral oedema and hyperaemia of the oral mucosa after surgery was also performed. A scoring system was used to determine the severity of collateral oedema. To assess the state of the postoperative period in patients of all study groups, a protocol was completed daily during the hospital stay period that reflected the most important data of an objective and subjective nature. During the procedure of morning dressings, we analyzed patients' complaints and evaluated general and local status: presence of appetite, quality of sleep, wound pain, postoperative oedema, hematoma, and hyperaemia of the oral mucosa, presence of secretions from the wound, body temperature, and type of wound healing. The study has demonstrated that at the final stage of postoperative follow-up the 89.31% of patients who received a combination of “Colapan–L” with multipotent mesenchymal stromal cells of adipose tissue and platelet-rich plasma reported no pain that is 1.2 times p1<0.05 and 1.3 times p2<0.05 higher than in the patients of groups A and B. Collateral oedema was absent in 98.47% of the group B patients that exceeded 1.2 times p1<0.05 the number of such individuals in group A, where the bone defect was augmented with the osteoplastic material “Colapan–L”, and in 1.4 times higher, p1<0.01, p1>0.05 that the indicators of group B, where the healing of the bone defect developed without osteoplastic materials. The absence of hyperaemia of the oral mucosa was found in 92.37% of the patients in groups B, which was 1.3 and 1.4 times higher than the values obtained in groups A and B, p1<0.05, p2<0.01.
