Mesenchymal stromal cell-derived exosome-rich fractionated secretome confers a hepatoprotective effect in liver injury.

ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND:Mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) are an attractive therapeutic agent in regenerative medicine. Recently, there has been a paradigm shift from differentiation of MSCs to their paracrine effects at the injury site. Several reports elucidate the role of trophic factors secreted by MSCs toward the repair of injured tissues. We hypothesize that fractionating the MSC secretome will enrich exosomes containing soluble bioactive molecules, improving its therapeutic potential for liver failure. METHODS:Rat bone marrow MSCs were isolated and the conditioned media filtered, concentrated and ultracentrifuged to generate fractionated secretome. This secretome was characterized for the presence of exosomes and recovery from liver injury assessed in in-vitro liver injury models. The results were further validated in vivo. RESULTS:Studies on in-vitro liver injury models using acetaminophen and hydrogen peroxide show better cell recovery and reduced cytotoxicity in the presence of fractionated as opposed to unfractionated secretome. Further, the cells showed reduced oxidative stress in the presence of fractionated secretome, suggesting a potential antioxidative effect. These results were further validated in vivo in liver failure models, wherein improved liver regeneration in the presence of fractionated secretome (0.819?±?0.035) was observed as compared to unfractionated secretome (0.718?±?0.042). CONCLUSIONS:The work presented is a proof of concept that fractionating the secretome enriches certain bioactive molecules involved in the repair and recovery of injured liver tissue. Exosome enriched mesenchymal stromal cell-derived fractionated secretome potentiates recovery upon injection in injured liver.

Project description:BackgroundIschemia/reperfusion injury is the leading cause of acute kidney injury (AKI). The current standard of care focuses on supporting kidney function, stating the need for more efficient and targeted therapies to enhance repair. Mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) and their secretome, either as conditioned medium (CM) or extracellular vesicles (EVs), have emerged as promising options for regenerative therapy; however, their full potential in treating AKI remains unknown.MethodsIn this study, we employed an in vitro model of chemically induced ischemia using antimycin A combined with 2-deoxy-D-glucose to induce ischemic injury in proximal tubule epithelial cells. Afterwards we evaluated the effects of MSC secretome, CM or EVs obtained from adipose tissue, bone marrow, and umbilical cord, on ameliorating the detrimental effects of ischemia. To assess the damage and treatment outcomes, we analyzed cell morphology, mitochondrial health parameters (mitochondrial activity, ATP production, mass and membrane potential), and overall cell metabolism by metabolomics.ResultsOur findings show that ischemic injury caused cytoskeletal changes confirmed by disruption of the F-actin network, energetic imbalance as revealed by a 50% decrease in the oxygen consumption rate, increased oxidative stress, mitochondrial dysfunction, and reduced cell metabolism. Upon treatment with MSC secretome, the morphological derangements were partly restored and ATP production increased by 40-50%, with umbilical cord-derived EVs being most effective. Furthermore, MSC treatment led to phenotype restoration as indicated by an increase in cell bioenergetics, including increased levels of glycolysis intermediates, as well as an accumulation of antioxidant metabolites.ConclusionOur in vitro model effectively replicated the in vivo-like morphological and molecular changes observed during ischemic injury. Additionally, treatment with MSC secretome ameliorated proximal tubule damage, highlighting its potential as a viable therapeutic option for targeting AKI.
