Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are promising candidates for stem cell‐based therapy in ischemic diseases. However, ischemic injury induces pathophysiological conditions, such as oxidative stress and inflammation, which diminish therapeutic efficacy of MSC‐based therapy by reducing survival and functionality of transplanted MSCs. To overcome this problem, we explored the effects of melatonin on the proliferation, resistance to oxidative stress, and immunomodulatory properties of MSCs. Treatment with melatonin enhanced MSC proliferation and self‐renewal via upregulation of cellular prion protein (PrPC) expression. Melatonin diminished the extent of MSC apoptosis in oxidative stress conditions by regulating the levels of apoptosis‐associated proteins, such as BCL‐2, BAX, PARP‐1, and caspase‐3, in a PrPC‐dependent manner. In addition, melatonin regulated the immunomodulatory effects of MSCs via the PrPC‐IDO axis. In a murine hind‐limb ischemia model, melatonin‐stimulated MSCs improved the blood flow perfusion, limb salvage, and vessel regeneration by lowering the extent of apoptosis of affected local cells and transplanted MSCs as well as by reducing infiltration of macrophages. These melatonin‐mediated therapeutic effects were inhibited by silencing of PrPC expression. Our findings for the first time indicate that melatonin promotes MSC functionality and enhances MSC‐mediated neovascularization in ischemic tissues through the upregulation of PrPC expression. In conclusion, melatonin‐treated MSCs could provide a therapeutic strategy for vessel regeneration in ischemic disease, and the targeting of PrPC levels may prove instrumental for MSC‐based therapies. 相似文献

Although mesenchymal stem cell (MSC)‐based therapy is a treatment strategy for ischemic diseases associated with chronic kidney disease (CKD), MSCs of CKD patients undergo accelerated senescence, with decreased viability and proliferation upon uremic toxin exposure, inhibiting their utility as a potent stem cell source for transplantation therapy. We investigated the effects of melatonin administration in protecting against cell senescence and decreased viability induced by pathophysiological conditions near the engraftment site. MSCs harvested from CKD mouse models were treated with H2O2 to induce oxidative stress. CKD‐derived MSCs exhibited greater oxidative stress‐induced senescence than normal‐mMSCs, while melatonin protected CKD‐mMSCs from H2O2 and associated excessive senescence. The latter was mediated by PrPC‐dependent mitochondrial functional enhancement; melatonin upregulated PrPC, which bound PINK1, thus promoting mitochondrial dynamics and metabolism. In vivo, melatonin‐treated CKD‐mMSCs survived longer, with increased secretion of angiogenic cytokines in ischemic disease engraftment sites. CKD‐mMSCs are more susceptible to H2O2‐induced senescence than normal‐mMSCs, and melatonin administration protects CKD‐mMSCs from excessive senescence by upregulating PrPC and enhancing mitochondrial function. Melatonin showed favorable therapeutic effects by successfully protecting CKD‐mMSCs from related ischemic conditions, thereby enhancing angiogenesis and survival. These results elucidate the mechanism underlying senescence inhibition by melatonin in stem cell‐based therapies using mouse‐derived CKD‐mMSCs. 相似文献

Background
Residual chronic myeloid leukemia disease following imatinib treatment has been attributed to the presence of quiescent leukemic stem cells intrinsically resistant to imatinib. Mesenchymal stromal cells in the bone marrow may favor the persistence and progression of leukemia by preserving the proliferation and self-renewal capacities of the malignant progenitor cells.Design and Methods
BV173 or primary chronic myeloid leukemia cells were co-cultured with human mesenchymal stromal cells and imatinib-induced cell death was then measured. The roles of pro-and anti-apoptotic proteins and chemokine CXCL12 in this context were evaluated. We also studied the ability of BV173 cells to repopulate NOD/SCID mice following in vitro exposure to imatinib and mesenchymal stromal cells.Results
Whilst imatinib induced dose-dependent apoptosis of BV173 cells and primary chronic myeloid leukemia cells, co-culture with mesenchymal stromal cells protected both types of chronic myeloid leukemia cells. Molecular analysis indicated that mesenchymal stromal cells reduced caspase-3 activation and modulated the expression of the anti-apoptotic protein Bcl-XL. Furthermore, chronic myeloid leukemia cells exposed to imatinib in the presence of mesenchymal stromal cells retained the ability to engraft into NOD/SCID mice. We observed that chronic myeloid leukemia cells and mesenchymal stromal cells express functional levels of CXCR4 and CXCL12, respectively. Finally, the CXCR4 antagonist, AMD3100 restored apoptosis by imatinib and the susceptibility of the SCID leukemia repopulating cells to the tyrosine kinase inhibitor.Conclusions
Human mesenchymal stromal cells mediate protection of chronic myeloid leukemia cells from imatinib-induced apoptosis. Disruption of the CXCL12/CXCR4 axis restores, at least in part, the leukemic cells’ sensitivity to imatinib. The combination of anti-CXCR4 antagonists with tyrosine kinase inhibitors may represent a powerful approach to the treatment of chronic myeloid leukemia. 相似文献4.

The goals of this study were to determine (a) if melatonin enhances human adult mesenchymal stem cell (hAMSC) differentiation into osteoblasts as assessed by measuring alkaline phosphatase (ALP) enzyme activity, and (b) identify potential signal transduction pathways that mediate this process. ALP activity significantly increased in hAMSCs following a 10-day incubation in osteogenic medium, relative to hAMSCs incubated in basal growth medium alone. Melatonin (50 nm), added in combination with the osteogenic medium, significantly increased ALP activity relative to osteogenic medium alone. Co-exposure of hAMSCs to osteogenic medium supplemented with melatonin and either pertussis toxin or the melatonin receptor antagonists, luzindole or 4P-PDOT (MT2 receptor selective), inhibited the melatonin-induced increase in ALP activity, indicating the involvement of melatonin receptors, in particular, MT2 receptors. Assessment of melatonin receptor function following exposure to osteogenic medium containing either vehicle or melatonin produced dichotomous results. That is, if the differentiation of hAMSCs into an osteoblast was induced by osteogenic medium alone, then 2-[125I]-iodomelatonin binding and melatonin receptor function increased. However, examination of melatonin receptor function following chronic melatonin exposure, an exposure that resulted in a 50% enhancement in ALP activity, revealed that these receptors were desensitized. This was reflected by a complete loss in specific 2-[125I]-iodomelatonin binding as well as melatonin efficacy to inhibit forskolin-induced cAMP accumulation. Further characterization of the mechanisms underlying melatonin's effects on these differentiation processes revealed that MEK (1/2) and ERK (1/2), epidermal growth factor receptors, metalloproteinase and clathrin-mediated endocytosis were essential while PKA was not. Our results are consistent with a role for melatonin in osteoblast differentiation. If so, then, the decrease in plasma melatonin levels observed in humans during late adulthood may further enhance susceptibility to osteoporosis. 相似文献

The maintenance of viable and functional pancreatic islets is crucial for successful islet transplantation from brain-dead donors. To overcome islet quality loss during culture, some studies have co-cultured islets with mesenchymal stem/stromal cells (MSC). However, it is still uncertain if MSC-secreted factors are enough to improve islet quality or if a physical contact between MSCs and islets is needed. Therefore, we performed a systematic review and meta-analysis to clarify the effect of different culture contact systems of islets with MSCs on viability and insulin secretion outcomes. Pubmed and Embase were searched. Twenty studies fulfilled the eligibility criteria and were included in the qualitative synthesis and/or meta-analysis. For both outcomes, pooled weighted mean differences (WMD) between islet cultured alone (control group) and the co-culture condition were calculated. Viability mean was higher in islets co-cultured with MSCs compared with islet cultured alone [WMD = 18.08 (95% CI 12.59–23.57)]. The improvement in viability was higher in islets co-cultured in indirect or mixed contact with MSCs than in direct physical contact (P <0.001). Moreover, the mean of insulin stimulation index (ISI) was higher in islets from co-culture condition compared with islet cultured alone [WMD = 0.83 (95% CI 0.54–1.13)], independently of contact system. Results from the studies that were analyzed only qualitatively are in accordance with meta-analysis data. Co-culture of islets with MSCs has the potential for protecting islets from injury during culture period. Moreover, culture time appears to influence the beneficial effect of different methods of co-culture on viability and function of islets. 相似文献

Background
A culture system that closely recapitulates marrow physiology is essential to study the niche-mediated regulation of hematopoietic stem cell fate at a molecular level. We investigated the key features that play a crucial role in the formation of a functional niche in vitro.Design and Methods
Hydrogel-based cultures of human placenta-derived mesenchymal stromal cells were established to recapitulate the fibrous three-dimensional architecture of the marrow. Plastic-adherent mesenchymal stromal cells were used as controls. Human bone marrow-derived CD34+ cells were co-cultured with them. The output hematopoietic cells were characterized by various stem cell-specific phenotypic and functional parameters.Results
The hydrogel-cultures harbored a large pool of primitive hematopoietic stem cells with superior phenotypic and functional attributes. Most importantly, like the situation in vivo, a significant fraction of these cells remained quiescent in the face of a robust multi-lineage hematopoiesis. The retention of a high percentage of primitive stem cells by the hydrogel-cultures was attributed to the presence of CXCR4-SDF1α axis and integrin beta1-mediated adhesive interactions. The hydrogel-grown mesenchymal stromal cells expressed high levels of several molecules that are known to support the maintenance of hematopoietic stem cells. Yet another physiologically relevant property exhibited by the hydrogel cultures was the formation of hypoxia-gradient. Destruction of hypoxia-gradient by incubating these cultures in a hypoxia chamber destroyed their specialized niche properties.Conclusions
Our data show that hydrogel-based cultures of mesenchymal stromal cells form a functional in vitro niche by mimicking key features of marrow physiology. 相似文献12.

Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) represent an attractive source for stem cell‐based regenerative therapy, but they are vulnerable to oxidative stress‐induced premature senescence in pathological conditions. We previously reported antioxidant and antiarthritic effects of melatonin on MSCs against proinflammatory cytokines. In this study, we hypothesized that melatonin could protect MSCs from premature senescence induced by hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) via the silent information regulator type 1 (SIRT1)‐dependent pathway. In response to H2O2 at a sublethal concentration of 200 μm , human bone marrow‐derived MSCs (BM‐MSCs) underwent growth arrest and cellular senescence. Treatment with melatonin before H2O2 exposure cannot significantly prevent premature senescence; however, treatment with melatonin subsequent to H2O2 exposure successfully reversed the senescent phenotypes of BM‐MSCs in a dose‐dependent manner. This result was made evident by improved cell proliferation, decreased senescence‐associated β‐galactosidase activity, and the improved entry of proliferating cells into the S phase. In addition, treatment with 100 μm melatonin restored the osteogenic differentiation potential of BM‐MSCs that was inhibited by H2O2‐induced premature senescence. We also found that melatonin attenuated the H2O2‐stimulated phosphorylation of p38 mitogen‐activated protein kinase, decreased expression of the senescence‐associated protein p16INK4α, and increased SIRT1. Further molecular experiments revealed that luzindole, a nonselective antagonist of melatonin receptors, blocked melatonin‐mediated antisenescence effects. Inhibition of SIRT1 by sirtinol counteracted the protective effects of melatonin, suggesting that melatonin reversed the senescence in cells through the SIRT1‐dependent pathway. Together, these findings lay new ground for understanding oxidative stress‐induced premature senescence and open perspectives for therapeutic applications of melatonin in stem cell‐based regenerative medicine. 相似文献

Background
Interactions with the microenvironment, such as bone marrow mesenchymal stromal cells and nurse-like cells, protect chronic lymphocytic leukemia cells from spontaneous and drug-induced apoptosis. This protection is partially mediated by the chemokine SDF-1α (CXCL12) and its receptor CXCR4 (CD184) present on the chronic lymphocytic leukemia cell surface.Design and Methods
Here, we investigated the ability of AMD3100, a CXCR4 antagonist, to sensitize chronic lymphocytic leukemia cells to chemotherapy in a chronic lymphocytic leukemia/mesenchymal stromal cell based or nurse-like cell based microenvironment co-culture model.Results
AMD3100 decreased CXCR4 expression signal (n=15, P=0.0078) and inhibited actin polymerization/migration in response to SDF-1α (n=8, P<0.01) and pseudoemperipolesis (n=10, P=0.0010), suggesting that AMD3100 interferes with chronic lymphocytic leukemia cell trafficking. AMD3100 did not have a direct effect on apoptosis when chronic lymphocytic leukemia cells were cultured alone (n=10, P=0.8812). However, when they were cultured with SDF-1α, mesenchymal stromal cells or nurse-like cells (protecting them from apoptosis, P<0.001), chronic lymphocytic leukemia cell pre-treatment with AMD3100 significantly inhibited these protective effects (n=8, P<0.01) and decreased the expression of the anti-apoptotic proteins MCL-1 and FLIP. Furthermore, combining AMD3100 with various drugs (fludarabine, cladribine, valproïc acid, bortezomib, flavopiridol, methylprednisolone) in our mesenchymal stromal cell co-culture model enhanced drug-induced apoptosis (n=8, P<0.05) indicating that AMD3100 could mobilize chronic lymphocytic leukemia cells away from their protective microenvironment, making them more accessible to conventional therapies.Conclusions
Taken together, these data demonstrate that interfering with the SDF-1α/CXCR4 axis by using AMD3100 inhibited chronic lymphocytic leukemia cell trafficking and microenvironment-mediated protective effects. Combining AMD3100 with other drugs may, therefore, represent a promising therapeutic approach to kill chronic lymphocytic leukemia cells. 相似文献14.

Melatonin, a circadian rhythm–promoting molecule, has a variety of biological functions, but the functional role of melatonin in the motility of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) has yet to be studied. In a mouse skin excisional wound model, we found that transplantation of umbilical cord blood (UCB)‐MSCs pretreated with melatonin enhanced wound closure, granulation, and re‐epithelialization at mouse skin wound sites, where relatively more UCB‐MSCs which were engrafted onto the wound site were detected. Thus, we identified the signaling pathway of melatonin, which affects the motility of UCB‐MSCs. Melatonin (1 μm ) significantly increased the motility of UCB‐MSCs, which had been inhibited by the knockdown of melatonin receptor 2 (MT2). We found that Gαq coupled with MT2 and that the binding of Gαq to MT2 uniquely stimulated an atypical PKC isoform, PKCζ. Melatonin induced the phosphorylation of FAK and paxillin, which were concurrently downregulated by blocking of the PKC activity. Melatonin increased the levels of active Cdc42 and Arp2/3, and it has the ability to stimulate cytoskeletal reorganization‐related proteins such as profilin‐1, cofilin‐1, and F‐actin in UCB‐MSCs. Finally, a lack of MT2 expression in UCB‐MSCs during a mouse skin transplantation experiment resulted in impaired wound healing and less engraftment of stem cells at the wound site. These results demonstrate that melatonin signaling via MT2 triggers FAK/paxillin phosphorylation to stimulate reorganization of the actin cytoskeleton, which is responsible for Cdc42/Arp2/3 activation to promote UCB‐MSCs motility. 相似文献

ObjectivePreterm infants are at a high risk of developing BPD. Although progression in neonatal care has improved, BPD still causes significant morbidity and mortality, which can be attributed to the limited therapeutic choices for BPD. This review discusses the potential of MSC in treating BPD as well as their hurdles and possible solutions.Data SourcesThe search for data was not limited to any sites but was mostly performed on all clinical trials available in ClinicalTrials.gov as well as on PubMed by applying the following keywords: lung injury, preterm, inflammation, neonatal, bronchopulmonary dysplasia and mesenchymal stem cells.Study SelectionsThe articles chosen for this review were collectively determined to be relevant and appropriate in discussing MSC not only as a potential treatment strategy for curbing the incidence of BPD but also including insights on problems regarding MSC treatment for BPD.ResultsClinical trials regarding the use of MSC for BPD had good results but also illustrated insights on problems to be addressed in the future regarding the treatment strategy. Despite that, the clinical trials had mostly favourable reviews.ConclusionWith BPD existing as a constant threat and there being no permanent solutions, the idea of regenerative medicine such as MSC may prove to be a breakthrough strategy when it comes to treating BPD. The success in clinical trials led to the formulation of prospective MSC‐derived products such as PNEUMOSTEM®, and there is the possibility of a stem cell medication and permanent treatment for BPD in the near future. 相似文献

This study tested whether combined therapy with melatonin and apoptotic adipose‐derived mesenchymal stem cells (A‐ADMSCs) offered additional benefit in ameliorating sepsis‐induced acute kidney injury. Adult male Sprague–Dawley rats (n = 65) were randomized equally into five groups: Sham controls (SC), sepsis induced by cecal‐ligation and puncture (CLP), CLP‐melatonin, CLP‐A‐ADMSC, and CLP‐melatonin‐A‐ADMSC. Circulating TNF‐α level at post‐CLP 6 hr was highest in CLP and lowest in SC groups, higher in CLP‐melatonin than in CLP‐A‐ADMSC and CLP‐melatonin‐A‐ADMSC groups (all P < 0.001). Immune reactivity as reflected in the number of splenic helper‐, cytoxic‐, and regulatory‐T cells at post‐CLP 72 hr exhibited the same pattern as that of circulating TNF‐α among all groups (P < 0.001). The histological scoring of kidney injury and the number of F4/80+ and CD14+ cells in kidney were highest in CLP and lowest in SC groups, higher in CLP‐melatonin than in CLP‐A‐ADMSC and CLP‐melatonin‐A‐ADMSC groups, and higher in CLP‐A‐ADMSC than in CLP‐melatonin‐A‐ADMSC groups (all P < 0.001). Changes in protein expressions of inflammatory (RANTES, TNF‐1α, NF‐κB, MMP‐9, MIP‐1, IL‐1β), apoptotic (cleaved caspase 3 and PARP, mitochondrial Bax), fibrotic (Smad3, TGF‐β) markers, reactive‐oxygen‐species (NOX‐1, NOX‐2), and oxidative stress displayed a pattern identical to that of kidney injury score among the five groups (all P < 0.001). Expressions of antioxidants (GR+, GPx+, HO‐1, NQO‐1+) were lowest in SC group and highest in CLP‐melatonin‐A‐ADMSC group, lower in CLP than in CLP‐melatonin and CLP‐A‐ADMSC groups, and lower in CLP‐melatonin‐ than in CLP‐A‐ADMSC‐tretaed animals (all P < 0.001). In conclusion, combined treatment with melatonin and A‐ADMSC was superior to A‐ADMSC alone in protecting the kidneys from sepsis‐induced injury. 相似文献

Intravenously administered mesenchymal stem/stromal cells (MSCs) engraft only transiently in recipients, but confer long-term therapeutic benefits in patients with immune disorders. This suggests that MSCs induce immune tolerance by long-lasting effects on the recipient immune regulatory system. Here, we demonstrate that i.v. infusion of MSCs preconditioned lung monocytes/macrophages toward an immune regulatory phenotype in a TNF-α–stimulated gene/protein (TSG)-6–dependent manner. As a result, mice were protected against subsequent immune challenge in two models of allo- and autoimmune ocular inflammation: corneal allotransplantation and experimental autoimmune uveitis (EAU). The monocytes/macrophages primed by MSCs expressed high levels of MHC class II, B220, CD11b, and IL-10, and exhibited T-cell–suppressive activities independently of FoxP3+ regulatory T cells. Adoptive transfer of MSC-induced B220+CD11b+ monocytes/macrophages prevented corneal allograft rejection and EAU. Deletion of monocytes/macrophages abrogated the MSC-induced tolerance. However, MSCs with TSG-6 knockdown did not induce MHC II+B220+CD11b+ cells, and failed to attenuate EAU. Therefore, the results demonstrate a mechanism of the MSC-mediated immune modulation through induction of innate immune tolerance that involves monocytes/macrophages.Intravenous administration of mesenchymal stem/stromal cells (MSCs) has emerged as a promising cell-based immunotherapy for autoimmune diseases, graft-vs.-host disease, and transplantation (1–3). A significant body of data from preclinical and clinical studies has demonstrated remarkable immunosuppressive capacities of MSCs in various diseases, but the mechanisms are still difficult to explain.One key observation is that therapeutic benefits of MSC administration in animal models are achieved without significant engraftment of the cells; after i.v. infusion, most MSCs reside transiently within the lung and disappear rapidly with a t1/2 of approximately 24 h in mice (4, 5). Therefore, direct suppressive effects of MSCs on the immune system are short-lived, and do not explain the long-term therapeutic effects observed with MSCs in clinical and animal studies. In this context, it has been suggested that MSCs trigger a state of immune tolerance, for example, through the induction of regulatory T cells (Tregs) (6, 7).Classically, lymphoid cells such as Tregs have been known to play a major role in regulating immune responses and maintaining immune tolerance. Recently, however, myeloid cells, including monocytes/macrophages, have gained attention as important mediators of immune regulation and tolerance (8, 9). In line with this, a few studies demonstrated that MSCs induce the expansion of myeloid cells with immunosuppressive activity and modulate monocytes/macrophages to an antiinflammatory phenotype, thereby inhibiting excessive inflammatory responses (10–12).However, it is not clear whether the MSC-educated myeloid cells can induce significant immune tolerance to repress adaptive immune responses in a setting of allo- or autoimmunity. Moreover, little is known about the mechanism(s) whereby MSCs induce immune tolerance through myeloid cells.In this study, we demonstrate that i.v. injection of MSCs into naive mice before immune challenge induces a significant immune tolerance in TNF-α–stimulated gene/protein (TSG)-6–dependent manner, and prevents the development of immune responses in two models of allo- and autoimmune ocular inflammation: corneal allotransplantation and experimental autoimmune uveitis (EAU). The MSC-induced tolerance involves a distinct subset of suppressive monocytes/macrophages in the lung, and is transferable independently of FoxP3+ Tregs. These data suggest a mechanism of MSCs in regulating adaptive immunity through induction of nonspecific innate tolerance. 相似文献
