Isolation and culture of different epidermal and dermal cell types from human scalp suitable for the development of a therapeutical cell spray

BACKGROUND: Previous studies demonstrated, that cultured epithelial autografts (CEA) can be isolated and skin cell sprays can be produced for application on different types of wounds. The purpose of the present study was to determine which cell types can be isolated from the human scalp and whether these cells can be used for spray transplantation. METHODS: Outer root sheath cells (ORS), keratinocytes, melanocytes, dermal papilla cells (DP), and dermal sheath cells (DSC) were isolated from human scalp tissue. Isolated cells were characterized, expanded and sprayed in an in vitro model. Growth behaviour, morphology and cell counts were compared with non-sprayed cells. RESULTS: With acceptable time, equipment and laboratory personnel a sufficient amount of keratinocytes, ORS, melanocytes, DP cells and DSC cells could be achieved. The cells are sufficient for application as a cell spray. Cells, positive for Integrin alpha6, Cytokeratin 19, CD73 and CD105 were identified within the cultures. CONCLUSIONS: Human scalp is suitable to gain epidermal and dermal cells for the development of therapeutic cell spray transplantation. Further studies have to determine, whether these cells can be combined to produce wound specific skin substitutes.     

Peritoneal dialysis versus hemodialysis in patients with delayed graft function

Delayed graft function (DGF) in kidney transplantation affects adverse outcomes. It remains unclear whether the post‐transplant dialysis modality alters perioperative or long‐term graft outcomes. We performed a retrospective observational quality initiative at two Canadian renal transplant centers, in which DGF occurred in the recipient, necessitating one of peritoneal dialysis (PD) or hemodialysis (HD). There was no difference in baseline factors between patients with post‐transplant PD (n = 14) or HD (n = 63). The use of PD was associated with an increased risk of wound infection/leakage (PD 5/14 vs. HD 6/63, p = 0.024), shorter length of hospitalization (13.7 vs. 18.7 d, p = 0.009) and time requiring dialysis post‐operatively (6.5 vs 11.0 d, p = 0.043). There were no differences in readmission to hospital within 6 months (4/14 vs. 23/63, p = 0.759), graft loss (0/14 vs. 2/63, p = 1.000) or acute rejection episodes (1/14 vs. 4/63, p = 1.000) at one yr, and GFR did not differ between the PD or HD groups at 30 d (35.7 vs. 33.8 mL/min/m², p = 0.731), six months (46.9 vs. 45.5 mL/min/m², p = 0.835) or one yr (46.6 vs. 44.5 mL/min/m², p = 0.746). Further research is needed to determine which transplant patients are most appropriate to undergo PD catheter removal at the time of transplantation.     

In vitro cytolysis of primitive neuroectodermal tumors of the posterior fossa (medulloblastoma) by lymphokine-activated killer cells

Short-term stimulation of nonantigen-primed peripheral blood mononuclear leukocytes with interleukin-2 generates a population of oncolytic effectors designated "lymphokine-activated killer" (LAK) cells. These LAK cells express potent lytic activity against a wide spectrum of fresh or cultured autochthonous (patient's own) and allogeneic (unrelated) tumors, yet specifically spare normal tissues. In this study, cells derived from primitive neuroectodermal tumors of the posterior fossa (PNET-PF) were examined for their sensitivity to LAK cytolysis utilizing an in vitro 4-hour chromium-51-release assay. Five early-passage cell lines, derived from primary PNET-PF, demonstrated significant sensitivity to LAK cell cytolysis. Lysis was equally effective in culture medium and cerebrospinal fluid. Three freshly excised PNET-PF exhibited similar susceptibility to lysis by autochthonous LAK cells. Greatly increased expansion of LAK cell cultures could be achieved by short-term stimulation with monoclonal anti-CD3 antibodies in addition to interleukin-2 activation. These findings constitute the preliminary in vitro foundations for potential intrathecal adoptive immunotherapy of PNET-PF with LAK cells.

Oxysterol stimulation of epidermal differentiation is mediated by liver X receptor-beta in murine epidermis

Liver X receptor-alpha and -beta are members of the nuclear hormone receptor superfamily that heterodimerize with retinoid X receptor and are activated by oxysterols. In recent studies we found that treatment of cultured human keratinocytes with oxysterolstimulated differentiation, as demonstrated by increased expression of involucrin and transglutaminase, and inhibited proliferation. The aims of this study were to determine: (i) whether oxysterols applied topically to the skin of mice induce differentiation in normal epidermis; (ii) whether this effect is mediated via liver X receptor-alpha and/or liver X receptor-beta; and (iii) whether oxysterols normalize epidermal morphology in an animal model of epidermal hyperplasia. Topical treatment of normal hairless mice with 22(R)-hydroxycholesterol or 24(S),25-epoxycholesterol resulted in a decrease in epidermal thickness and a decrease in keratinocyte proliferation assayed by proliferating cell nuclear antigen staining. Moreover, oxysterol treatment increased the levels of involucrin, loricrin, and profilaggrin protein and mRNA in the epidermis, indicating that oxysterols stimulate epidermal differentiation. Additionally, topical oxysterol pretreatment improved permeability barrier homeostasis. Whereas liver X receptor-alpha-/- mice revealed no alterations in epidermal differentiation, the epidermis was thinner in liver X receptor-beta-/- mice than in wild-type mice, with a reduced number of proliferating cell nuclear antigen positive cells and a modest reduction in the expression of differentiation markers. Topical oxysterol treatment induced differentiation in liver X receptor-alpha-/- mice whereas in liver X receptor-beta-/- mice there was no increase in the expression of differentiation markers. Whereas both liver X receptor-alpha and liver X receptor-beta are expressed in cultured human keratinocytes and in fetal rat skin, only liver X receptor-beta was observed on northern blotting in adult mouse epidermis. Finally, treatment of hyperproliferative epidermis with oxysterols restored epidermal homeostasis. These studies demonstrate that epidermal differentiation is regulated by liver X receptor-beta and that oxysterols, acting via liver X receptor-beta, can induce differentiation and inhibit proliferation in vivo. The ability of oxysterols to reverse epidermal hyperplasia suggests that these agents could be beneficial for the treatment of skin disorders associated with hyperproliferation and/or altered differentiation.
