ABSTRACT

Adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells (ASCs) are well known for their secretory potential, which confers them useful properties in cell therapy. Nevertheless, this therapeutic potential is reduced after transplantation due to their short survival in the human body and their migration property. This study proposes a method to protect cells during and after injection by encapsulation in microparticles of calcium alginate. Besides, the consequences of encapsulation on ASC proliferation, pluripotential, and secretome were studied. Spherical particles with a mean diameter of 500 µm could be obtained in a reproducible manner with a viability of 70% after 16 days in vitro. Moreover, encapsulation did not alter the proliferative properties of ASCs upon return to culture nor their differentiation potential in adipocytes, chondrocytes, and osteocytes. Concerning their secretome, encapsulated ASCs consistently produced greater amounts of interleukin-6 (IL-6), interleukin-8 (IL-8), and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) compared to monolayer cultures. Encapsulation therefore appears to enrich the secretome with transforming growth factor ß1 (TGF-ß1) and macrophage inflammatory protein-1ß (MIP-1ß) not detectable in monolayer cultures. Alginate microparticles seem sufficiently porous to allow diffusion of the cytokines of interest. With all these cytokines playing an important role in wound healing, it appears relevant to investigate the impact of using encapsulated ASCs on the wound healing process.

ABSTRACT

Adipose-derived stem/stromal cells (ASCs) reside in the stromal vascular fraction (SVF) of adipose tissue (AT) and can be easily isolated. However, extraction of the SVF from lipoaspirate is a critical step in generating ASC, and semiautomated devices have been developed to enhance the efficacy and reproducibility of the outcomes and to decrease manipulation and contamination. In this study, we compared the reference method used in our lab for SVF isolation from lipoaspirate, with three medical devices: GID SVF-1™, Puregraft™, and Stem.pras®. Cell yield and their viability were evaluated as well as their phenotype with flow cytometry. Further on, we determined their proliferative potential using population doublings (PD), PD time (PDT), and clonogenicity assay (CFU-F). Finally, we checked their genetic stability using RT-qPCR for TERT mRNA assay and karyotyping as well as their multilineage potential including adipogenic, chondrogenic, and osteogenic differentiation. Our results demonstrate that all the devices allow the production of SVF cells with consistent yield and viability, in less time than the reference method. Expanded cells from the four methods showed no significant differences in terms of phenotype, proliferation capabilities, differentiation abilities, and genetic stability.
