RESUMO

Fibroblasts (hDFs) are widely employed for skin regeneration and the treatment of various skin disorders, yet research were rarely investigated about restoration of diminished therapeutic efficacy due to cell senescence. The application of stem cell and stem cell-derived materials, exosomes, were drawn attention for the restoration functionality of fibroblasts, but still have limitation for unintended side effect or low yield. To advance, stem cell-derived nanovesicle (NV) have developed for effective therapeutic reagents with high yield and low risk. In this study, we have developed a method using red light irradiated human adipose-derived stem cells (hADSCs) derived NV (R-NVs) for enhancing the therapeutic efficacy and rejuvenating hDFs. Through red light irradiation, we were able to significantly increase the content of stemness factors and angiogenic biomolecules in R-NVs. Treatment with these R-NVs was found to enhance the migration ability and leading to rejuvenation of old hDFs to levels similar to those of young hDFs. In subsequent in vivo experiments, the treatment of old hDFs with R-NVs demonstrated a superior skin wound healing effect, surpassing that of young hDFs. In summary, this study successfully induced rejuvenation and leading to increased therapeutic efficacy to R-NVs treated old hDFs previously considered as biowaste.

RESUMO

Cell-based therapies have been used as promising treatments for several untreatable diseases. However, cell-based therapies have side effects such as tumorigenesis and immune responses. To overcome these side effects, therapeutic effects of exosomes have been researched as replacements for cell-based therapies. In addition, exosomes reduced the risk that can be induced by cell-based therapies. Exosomes contain biomolecules such as proteins, lipids, and nucleic acids that play an essential role in cell-cell and cell-matrix interactions during biological processes. Since the introduction of exosomes, those have been proven perpetually as one of the most effective and therapeutic methods for incurable diseases. Much research has been conducted to enhance the properties of exosomes, including immune regulation, tissue repair, and regeneration. However, yield rate of exosomes is the critical obstacle that should be overcome for practical cell-free therapy. Three-dimensional (3D) culture methods are introduced as a breakthrough to get higher production yields of exosomes. For example, hanging drop and microwell were well known 3D culture methods and easy to use without invasiveness. However, these methods have limitation in mass production of exosomes. Therefore, a scaffold, spinner flask, and fiber bioreactor were introduced for mass production of exosomes isolated from various cell types. Furthermore, exosomes treatments derived from 3D cultured cells showed enhanced cell proliferation, angiogenesis, and immunosuppressive properties. This review provides therapeutic applications of exosomes using 3D culture methods.

RESUMO

We used a blue organic light-emitting diode (bOLED) to increase the paracrine factors secreted from human adipose-derived stem cells (hADSCs) for producing conditioned medium (CM). Our results showed that while the bOLED irradiation promotes a mild-dose reactive oxygen generation that enhances the angiogenic paracrine secretion of hADSCs, it does not induce phototoxicity. The bOLED enhances paracrine factors via a cell-signaling mechanism involving hypoxia-inducible factor 1 alpha. This study demonstrated that the CM resulting from bOLED treatment shows improved therapeutic effects on mouse wound-healing models. This method contributes to overcoming the barriers to stem-cell therapies, including the toxicity and low yields from other methods such as nanoparticles, synthetic polymers, and even cell-derived vesicles.

RESUMO

PURPOSE: To determine whether additional stem extension for stability is necessary, we performed mid-term follow-up of patients who had been managed with 5-mm metal block augmentation for a tibial defect, where tibial prosthesis was fixed using bone cement without stem extension. Also, we evaluated clinical and radiologic results including survival rate of patients without stem extension. METHODS: We retrospectively analyzed patients with tibial bone defect, had undergone primary total knee arthroplasty, and had been treated with 5-mm metal block augmentation without stem extension between March 2003 and September 2013. Among 74 patients (80 cases), 47 patients (52 cases) were followed up for at least 5 years. RESULTS: Mean flexion contracture improved from 8.8° (0-40°) preoperatively to 0.4° (-5° to 15°) at final follow-up (P < 0.01), but there was no significant change in the mean angle of great flexion: 124.6° (75-150°) preoperatively and 126.2° (90-145°) at final follow-up (P = 0.488). Mean range of motion improved from 115.8° (35-150°) preoperatively to 125.5° (90-145°) at final follow-up (P < 0.01). Mean knee score improved from 38.7 points (0-66 points) preoperatively to 93.2 points (79-100 points) at final follow-up (P < 0.01), and mean functional score also improved from 50.4 points (10-70 points) preoperatively to 81.8 points (15-100 points) at final follow-up (P < 0.01). The mean postoperative Western Ontario and McMaster University osteoarthritis score was 19.5 points (0-66.0 points). The mean femorotibial angle was corrected from 9.0° varus (23.0° varus-6.3° valgus) preoperatively to 5.5° valgus (2.2° varus-11.1° valgus) at final follow-up (P < 0.01). There was no change in the mean ß-angle, which was 90.7° (87.2-94.9°) immediately postoperative and 90.8° (87.2-94.9°) at final follow-up (P = 0.748) and in the mean δ-angle, which was 86.2° (81.3-90.0°) immediately postoperative and 87.2° (83.1-96.5°) at final follow-up (P = 0.272). Radiolucent lines (RLL) were observed in ten cases (26.3%), and the mean RLL scores at final follow-up were 0.34 points (0-3 points) in the anteroposterior view and 0.42 points (0-6 points) in the lateral view. Scores for the RLL were ≤ 4 points in 36 cases, 5-9 points in two cases. Revision surgery due to aseptic loosening (three cases) is rarely required, and the Kaplan-Meier survival rate at 10 postoperative years was 96.4% CONCLUSION: When performing 5-mm metal block augmentation for a proximal tibial defect, no additional tibial stem extension can be a good surgical option for the stability of tibial prosthetic construct and mid-term clinical and radiologic results. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: IV.

RESUMO

All exogenous nanomaterials undergo rapid biotransformation once injected into the body and fall short of executing the intended purpose. Here, it is reported that copper-deposited ceria nanoparticles (CuCe NPs) exhibit enhanced antioxidant effects over pristine ceria nanoparticles, as the released copper buffers the depletion of glutathione while providing the bioavailable copper as a cofactor for the antioxidant enzyme, superoxide dismutase 1. The upregulated intracellular antioxidants along with the ceria nanoparticles synergistically scavenge reactive oxygen species and promote anti-inflammation and M2 polarization of macrophages by modulating signal transducer and activator of transcription 1 and 6 (STAT1 and STAT6). The therapeutic effect of CuCe NPs is demonstrated in ischemic vascular diseases (i.e., murine models of hindlimb ischemia and myocardial infarction) in which the copper-deposition affords increased perfusion and alleviation in tissue damage. The results provide rationale that metal oxide nanomaterials can be designed in a way to induce the upregulation of specific biological factors for optimal therapeutic performance.

RESUMO

PURPOSE: To evaluate the objective and subjective long-term clinical outcomes of tendon transfer and tendon graft for extensor tendon ruptures in rheumatoid hands. METHODS: We evaluated the long-term clinical outcomes of tendon transfer and tendon graft for extensor tendon ruptures in rheumatoid hands of 37 patients (43 hands) followed up for a mean of 14 years (range, 10-21 years). RESULTS: The mean time from rupture to surgery was 13.1 weeks (range, 3-48 weeks). The mean extension lag of the metacarpophalangeal joint was 8.7° (range, 0-40°), the mean pulp-to-palm distance was 0.4 cm (range, 0-3 cm), and the mean overall satisfaction rate was 86.5 (range, 70-100). There were no significant differences in clinical outcomes between tendon transfers and tendon grafts. There was a significant correlation between extension lag of the metacarpophalangeal joint and overall satisfaction rate (R2 = 0.155; p = 0.009). Time to surgery was significantly correlated with extension lag of the metacarpophalangeal joint (R2 = 0.437; p = 0.001) in the tendon graft group. CONCLUSIONS: Both tendon transfer and tendon graft for extensor tendon ruptures in rheumatoid hands achieve satisfactory results that are maintained for an average of 14 years. In cases of tendon graft, the time to surgery should be considered, and there is concern over extension lag of MP joint. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: IV.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Human adipose-derived stem cells (hADSCs) have been widely used for regenerative medicine because of their therapeutic efficacy and differentiation capacity. However, there are still limitations to use them intactly due to some difficulties such as poor cell engraftment and viability after cell transplantation. Therefore, techniques such as photobiomodulation (PBM) are required to overcome these limitations. This study probed improved preclinical efficacy of irradiated hADSCs and its underlying molecular mechanism. METHODS: hADSCs were irradiated with green organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs). Treated cells were analyzed for mechanism identification and tissue regeneration ability verification. Expression levels of genes and proteins associated with photoreceptor, cell proliferation, migration, adhesion, and wound healing were evaluated by performing multiple assays and immunostaining. Excision wound models were employed to test in vivo therapeutic effects. RESULTS: In vitro assessments showed that Opsin3 (OPN3) and OPN4 are both expressed in hADSCs. However, only OPN4 was stimulated by green OLED irradiation. Cell proliferation, migration, adhesion, and growth factor expression in treated hADSCs were enhanced compared to control group. Conditioned medium containing paracrine factors secreted from irradiated hADSCs increased proliferation of human dermal fibroblasts and normal human epidermal keratinocytes. Irradiated hADSCs exerted better wound healing efficacy in vivo than hADSCs without OLED irradiation. CONCLUSIONS: Our study introduces an intracellular mechanism of PBM in hADSCs. Our results revealed that photoreceptor OPN4 known to activate Gq-protein and consequently lead to reactive oxygen species production responded to OLED irradiation with a wavelength peak of 532 nm. In conclusion, green OLED irradiation can promote wound healing capability of hADSCs, suggesting that green OLED has potential preclinical applications.

RESUMO

Light-based therapy such as photobiomodulation (PBM) reportedly produces beneficial physiological effects in cells and tissues. However, most reports have focused on the immediate and instant effects of light. Considering the physiological effects of natural light exposure in living organisms, the latent reaction period after irradiation should be deliberated. In contrast to previous reports, we examined the latent reaction period after light exposure with optimized irradiating parameters and validated novel therapeutic molecular mechanisms for the first time. we demonstrated an organic light-emitting diode (OLED)-based PBM (OPBM) strategy that enhances the angiogenic efficacy of human adipose-derived stem cells (hADSCs) via direct irradiation with red OLEDs of optimized wavelength, voltage, current, luminance, and duration, and investigated the underlying molecular mechanisms. Our results revealed that the angiogenic paracrine effect, viability, and adhesion of hADSCs were significantly intensified by our OPBM strategy. Following OPBM treatment, significant changes were observed in HIF-1α expression, intracellular reactive oxygen species levels, activation of the receptor tyrosine kinase, and glycolytic pathways in hADSCs. In addition, transplantation of OLED-irradiated hADSCs resulted in significantly enhanced limb salvage ratio in a mouse model of hindlimb ischemia. Our OPBM might serve as a new paradigm for stem cell culture systems to develop cell-based therapies in the future.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Human adipose-derived stem cells (hADSCs) have been used in various fields of tissue engineering because of their promising therapeutic efficacy. However, the stemness of hADSCs cannot be maintained for long durations, and their therapeutic cellular functions, such as paracrine factor secretion decrease during long-term cell culture. To facilitate the use of long-term-cultured hADSCs (L-ADSCs), we designed a novel therapeutic anti-senescence ion-delivering nanocarrier (AIN) that is capable of recovering the therapeutic properties of L-ADSCs. In the present study, we introduced a low-pH-responsive ion nanocarrier capable of delivering transition metal ions that can enhance angiogenic paracrine factor secretion from L-ADSCs. The AINs were delivered to L-ADSCs in an intracellular manner through endocytosis. RESULTS: Low pH conditions within the endosomes induced the release of transition metal ions (Fe) into the L-ADSCs that in turn caused a mild elevation in the levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS). This mild elevation in ROS levels induced a downregulation of senescence-related gene expression and an upregulation of stemness-related gene expression. The angiogenic paracrine factor secretion from L-ADSCs was significantly enhanced, and this was evidenced by the observed therapeutic efficacy in response to treatment of a wound-closing mouse model with conditioned medium obtained from AIN-treated L-ADSCs that was similar to that observed in response to treatment with short-term-cultured adipose-derived stem cells. CONCLUSIONS: This study suggests a novel method and strategy for cell-based tissue regeneration that can overcome the limitations of the low stemness and therapeutic efficacy of stem cells that occurs during long-term cell culture.

RESUMO

Comprehensive research has led to significant preclinical outcomes in modified human adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells (hADSCs). Photobiomodulation (PBM), a technique to enhance the cellular capacity of stem cells, has attracted considerable attention owing to its effectiveness and safety. Here, we suggest a red organic light-emitting diode (OLED)-based PBM strategy to augment the therapeutic efficacy of hADSCs. In vitro assessments revealed that hADSCs basked in red OLED light exhibited enhanced angiogenesis, cell adhesion, and migration compared to naïve hADSCs. We demonstrated that the enhancement of cellular capacity was due to an increased level of intracellular reactive oxygen species. Furthermore, accelerated healing and regulated inflammatory response was observed in mice transplanted with red light-basked hADSCs. Overall, our findings suggest that OLED-based PBM may be an easily accessible and attractive approach for tissue regeneration that can be applied to various clinical stem cell therapies.

RESUMO

Cell therapy based on human adipose derived stem cells (hADSCs) is a known potential therapeutic approach to induce angiogenesis in ischemic diseases. However, the therapeutic efficacy of direct hADSC injection is limited by a low cell viability and poor cell engraftment after administration. To improve the outcomes of this kind of approach, various types of nanoparticles have been utilized to improve the therapeutic efficacy of hADSC transplantation. Despite their advantages, the adverse effects of nanoparticles, such as genetic damage and potential oncogenesis based on non-degradable property of nanoparticles prohibit the application of nanoparticles toward the clinical applications. Herein, we designed a transition metal based inorganic nanocluster able of pH-selective degradation (ps-TNC), with the aim of enhancing an hADSC based treatment of mouse hindlimb ischemia. Our ps-TNC was designed to undergo degradation at low pH conditions, thus releasing metal ions only after endocytosis, in the endosome. To eliminate the limitations of both conventional hADSC injection and non-degradable property of nanoparticles, we have collected conditioned medium (CM) from the ps-TNC treated hADSCs and administrated it to the ischemic lesions. We found that intracellular increment of transition metal ion upregulated the hypoxia-inducible factor 1α, which can induce vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) expressions. Based on the molecular mechanism, the secretion of VEGF and bFGF by ps-TNC treated hADSCs showed a significant improvement compared to that of untreated cells. Injecting the CM collected from ps-TNC treated hADSCs into the mouse hindlimb ischemia model (ps-TNC-CM group) showed significantly improved angiogenesis in the lesions, with improved limb salvage and decreased muscle degeneration compared to the group injected with CM collected from normal hADSCs (CM group). This study suggests a novel strategy, combining a known angiogenesis molecular mechanism with both an improvement on conventional stem cell therapy and the circumvention of some limitations still present in modern approaches based on nanoparticles.

RESUMO

Inorganic nanomaterials or nanoparticles (INPs) have drawn high attention for their usage in the biomedical field. In addition to the facile synthetic and modifiable property of INPs, INPs have various unique properties that originate from the components of the INPs, such as metal ions that are essential for the human body. Apart from their roles as components of the human body, inorganic materials have unique properties, such as magnetic, antibacterial, and piezoelectric, so that INPs have been widely used as either carriers or inducers. However, most of the bio-applicable INPs, especially those consisting of metal, can cause cytotoxicity. Therefore, INPs require modification to alleviate the harmful effect toward the cells by controlling the release of metal ions from INPs. Even though many attempts have been made to modify INPs, many things, including the side effects of INPs, still remain as obstacles in the bio-application, which need to be elucidated. In this chapter, we introduce novel INPs in terms of their synthetic method and bio-application in tissue engineering.

RESUMO

Here, we report that Fe ions delivered into human mesenchymal stem cells (hMSCs) by bioreducible metal nanoparticles (NPs) enhance their angiogenic and cell-homing efficacy by controlling ion-triggered intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) and improve cell migration, while reducing cytotoxicity. Endosome-triggered iron-ion-releasing nanoparticles (ETIN) were designed to be low-pH responsive to take advantage of the low-pH conditions (4-5) of endosomes for in situ iron-ion release. Due to the different redox potentials of Fe and Au, only Fe could be ionized and released from our novel ETIN, while Au remained intact after ETIN endocytosis. Treatment with an optimal amount of ETIN led to a mild increase in intracellular ROS levels in hMSCs, which enhanced the expression of HIF-1α, a key trigger for angiogenic growth factor secretion from hMSCs. Treatmetn of hMSCs with ETIN significantly enhanced the expression of angiogenesis- and lesion-targeting-related genes and proteins. Transplantation of ETIN-treated hMSCs significantly enhanced angiogenesis and tissue regeneration in a wound-closing mouse model compared with those in untreated mice and mice that underwent conventional hMSC transplantation.

RESUMO

Injecting human mesenchymal stem cells (hMSCs) at wound sites is known to have a therapeutic effect; however, hMSCs have several limitations, such as low viability and poor engraftment after injection, as well as a potential risk of oncogenesis. The use of a conditioned medium (CM) was suggested as an alternative method for treating various wounds instead of direct hMSC administration. In addition to not having the adverse effects associated with hMSCs, a CM can be easily mass produced and can be stored for long-term, thereby making it useful for clinical applications. In general, a CM is collected from hMSCs with low passage number; whereas, the hMSCs with high passage number are usually discarded because of their low therapeutic efficacy as a result of reduced angiogenic factor secretion. Herein, we used a CM collected from high passage number (passage 12, P12) hMSCs treated with gold-iron nanoparticles (AuFe NPs). Our AuFe NPs were designed to release the iron ion intracellularly via endocytosis. Endosomes with low pH can dissolve iron from AuFe NPs, and thus, the intracellularly released iron ions up-regulate the hypoxia-inducible factor 1α and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) expression. Through this mechanism, AuFe NPs improve the amount of VEGF expression from P12 hMSCs so that it is comparable to the amount of VEGF expression from low passage number (passage 6, P6), without treatment. Furthermore, we injected the CM retrieved from P12 MSCs treated with AuFe NPs in the mouse skin wound model (AuFe P12 group). AuFe P12 group revealed significantly enhanced angiogenesis in the mouse skin wound model compared to the high passage hMSC CM-injected group. Moreover, the result from the AuFe P12 group was similar to that of the low passage hMSC CM-injected group. Both the AuFe P12 group and low passage hMSC CM-injected group presented significantly enhanced re-epithelization, angiogenesis, and tissue remodeling compared to the high passage hMSC CM-injected group. This study reveals a new strategy for tissue regeneration based on CM injection without considering the high cell passage count.
