Immunomodulatory Properties of Adipose-Derived Stem Cells Treated with 5-Azacytydine and Resveratrol on Peripheral Blood Mononuclear Cells and Macrophages in Metabolic Syndrome Animals.

ABSTRACT: Endocrine disorders, including equine metabolic syndrome (EMS), are a serious issue in veterinary medicine and horse breeding. Furthermore, EMS was shown to affect the cytophysiological properties of adipose-derived stem cells, reducing their therapeutic potential. However, it was shown that those cells can be rejuvenated while using a combination of two chemicals: 5-azacytydine (AZA) and resveratrol (RES). In the present study, we decided to evaluate the immunomodulatory properties of AZA/RES-treated adipose-derived stem cells (ASC) isolated from EMS horses (ASCEMS). Thus, we co-cultured ASC with peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) and RAW264.7 macrophages. Most attention was placed on regulatory T lymphocytes (TREG), as well as the messenger RNA (mRNA) and protein levels of several cytokines (tumor necrosis factor ? (TNF-?), interleukin (IL)-6, IL-10, and IL-1?). Moreover, we also investigated the expression of genes related to auto- and mitophagy in both PBMCs and ASCs. PBMCs were obtained from healthy and EMS-suffering individuals and were co-cultured with ASCs that were isolated from healthy and EMS horses cultured in control conditions and with AZA/RES. We discovered that cells treated with AZA/RES increase the TREG number while co-cultured with PBMCs. Moreover, the co-culture of PBMCs with AZA/RES-treated ASCEMS induced mitophagy in PBMCs. Furthermore, ASCEMS pre-treated with AZA/RES displayed anti-inflammatory properties, as decreased levels of TNF-?, nitric oxide (NO), and IL-6 were observed in those cells in comparison with their untreated counterparts in the co-culture with RAW264.7 macrophages. In summary, we demonstrated that ASCEMS treated with AZA/RES displayed increased anti-inflammatory properties, and was able to regulate and activate the TREG-related anti-inflammatory response.

Project description:Background/introductionAdipose tissue (AT) has been highlighted as a promising reservoir of infection for viruses, bacteria and parasites. Among them is Trypanosoma cruzi, which causes Chagas disease. The recommended treatment for the disease in Brazil is Benznidazole (BZ). However, its efficacy may vary according to the stage of the disease, geographical origin, age, immune background of the host and sensitivity of the strains to the drug. In this context, AT may act as an ally for the parasite survival and persistence in the host and a barrier for BZ action. Therefore, we investigated the immunomodulation of T. cruzi-infected human AT in the presence of peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) where BZ treatment was added.MethodsWe performed indirect cultivation between T. cruzi-infected adipocytes, PBMC and the addition of BZ. After 72h of treatment, the supernatant was collected for cytokine, chemokine and adipokine assay. Infected adipocytes were removed to quantify T. cruzi DNA, and PBMC were removed for immunophenotyping.ResultsOur findings showed elevated secretion of interleukin (IL)-6, IL-2 and monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1/CCL2) in the AT+PBMC condition compared to the other controls. In contrast, there was a decrease in tumor necrosis factor (TNF) and IL-8/CXCL-8 in the groups with AT. We also found high adipsin secretion in PBMC+AT+T compared to the treated condition (PBMC+AT+T+BZ). Likewise, the expression of CD80+ and HLA-DR+ in CD14+ cells decreased in the presence of T. cruzi.DiscussionThus, our findings indicate that AT promotes up-regulation of inflammatory products such as IL-6, IL-2, and MCP-1/CCL2. However, adipogenic inducers may have triggered the downregulation of TNF and IL-8/CXCL8 through the peroxisome proliferator agonist gamma (PPAR-g) or receptor expression. On the other hand, the administration of BZ only managed to reduce inflammation in the microenvironment by decreasing adipsin in the infected culture conditions. Therefore, given the findings, we can see that AT is an ally of the parasite in evading the host's immune response and the pharmacological action of BZ.
