Platelet Lysate Activates Human Subcutaneous Adipose Tissue Cells by Promoting Cell Proliferation and Their Paracrine Activity Toward Epidermal Keratinocytes.

ABSTRACT: Skin chronic wounds are non-healing ulcerative defects, which arise in association with a morbidity state, such as diabetes and vascular insufficiency or as the consequence of systemic factors including advanced age. Platelet Rich Plasma, a platelet-rich blood fraction, can significantly improve the healing of human skin chronic ulcers. Given that the subcutaneous adipose tissue is located beneath the skin and plays a role in the skin homeostasis, in this study, we investigated the in vitro response of human subcutaneous adipose tissue cells to platelet content in a model mimicking in vitro the in situ milieu of a deep skin injury. Considering that, at the wound site, plasma turn to serum, platelets are activated and inflammation occurs, human adipose-derived stromal cells (hASC) were cultured with Human Serum (HS) supplemented or not with Platelet Lysate (PL) and/or IL-1?. We observed that HS sustained hASC proliferation more efficiently than FBS and induced a spontaneous adipogenic differentiation in the cells. PL added to HS enhanced hASC proliferation, regardless the presence of IL-1?. In the presence of PL, hASC progressively lessened the adipogenic phenotype, possibly because the proliferation of less committed cells was induced. However, these cells resumed adipogenesis in permissive conditions. Accordingly, PL induced in quiescent cells activation of the proliferation-related pathways ERK, Akt, and STAT-3 and expression of Cyclin D1. Moreover, PL induced an early and transient increase of the pro-inflammatory response triggered by IL-1?, by inducing COX-2 expression and secretion of a large amount of PGE₂, IL-6, and IL-8. Media conditioned by PL-stimulated hASC exerted a chemotactic activity on human keratinocytes and favored the healing of an in vitro scratch wound. In order to bridge the gap between in vitro results and possible in vivo events, the stimuli were also tested in ex vivo cultures of in toto human adipose tissue biopsies (hAT). PL induced cell proliferation in hAT and outgrowth of committed progenitor cells able to differentiate in permissive conditions. In conclusion, we report that the adipose tissue responds to the wound microenvironment by activating the proliferation of adipose tissue progenitor cells and promoting the release of factors favoring wound healing.

Project description:Adipose-derived stem cell (ASC) is a valuable source of cell therapy. By stimulating extracellular matrix (ECM) secretion, ASC sheets can be fabricated with enhanced regenerative capabilities. In recent years, human platelet lysate (HPL) provides an attractive alternative to fetal bovine serum (FBS) for the ex vivo expansion of ASCs for clinical use. However, the effect of HPL on ASC sheet formation has not been previously determined. In this study, we compared ECM composition and cellular characteristics of ASC sheets cultured in growth medium supplemented with either FBS or HPL. HPL supplement significantly enhanced ASC proliferation without obvious change in the expression pattern of cell surface markers. We found that culturing ASCs with HPL rendered thicker cell sheets with significantly more ECM deposition, including collagen and fibronectin. Proteomic analysis of the FBS or HPL-cultured cell sheets showed diversity in ECM composition. HPL-cultured ASC sheets exhibited up-regulation of interleukin-6 and an anti-inflammatory cytokine, C1q/tumor necrosis factor-related protein-3. Conditioned medium of HPL-cultured ASC sheets significantly enhanced fibroblast migration and tube formation of endothelial cells in vitro, while it inhibited the migration of macrophages toward stimulated macrophages in vitro. TGF-β1-stimulated fibroblasts cultured in ASC sheet-conditioned medium showed down-regulation of α-SMA and TGF-β1. By adding an anti-hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) neutralizing antibody in conditioned medium, we indicated that an anti-fibrosis effect of HPL-cultured ASC sheets is partially mediated through the increased secretion of HGF. Moreover, chick embryo chorioallantoic membrane (CAM) assay showed comparable capillary density after applying either FBS or HPL-cultured ASC sheets, both of which were significantly higher than the control. In conclusion, robust ECM formation with altered ECM composition was noted in ASC sheets cultured in HPL-supplemented medium. Their immunomodulatory and pro-angiogenesis capabilities were largely maintained. Our findings paved the way to elucidate the potential of HPL-cultured ASC sheets for clinical application in tissue regeneration.

Project description:BackgroundThe autologous nerve graft, despite its donor site morbidity and unpredictable functional recovery, continues to be the gold standard in peripheral nerve repair. Rodent research studies have shown promising results with cell transplantation of human adipose-derived stem cells (hADSC) in a bioengineered conduit, as an alternative strategy for nerve regeneration. To achieve meaningful clinical translation, cell therapy must comply with biosafety. Cell extraction and expansion methods that use animal-derived products, including enzymatic adipose tissue dissociation and the use of fetal bovine serum (FBS) as a culture medium supplement, have the potential for transmission of zoonotic infectious and immunogenicity. Human-platelet-lysate (hPL) serum has been used in recent years in human cell expansion, showing reliability in clinical applications.MethodsWe investigated whether hADSC can be routinely isolated and cultured in a completely xenogeneic-free way (using hPL culture medium supplement and avoiding collagenase digestion) without altering their physiology and stem properties. Outcomes in terms of stem marker expression (CD105, CD90, CD73) and the osteocyte/adipocyte differentiation capacity were compared with classical collagenase digestion and FBS-supplemented hADSC expansion.ResultsWe found no significant differences between the two examined extraction and culture protocols in terms of cluster differentiation (CD) marker expression and stem cell plasticity, while hADSC in hPL showed a significantly higher proliferation rate when compared with the usual FBS-added medium. Considering the important key growth factors (particularly brain-derived growth factor (BDNF)) present in hPL, we investigated a possible neurogenic commitment of hADSC when cultured with hPL. Interestingly, hADSC cultured in hPL showed a statistically higher secretion of neurotrophic factors BDNF, glial cell-derived growth factor (GDNF), and nerve-derived growth factor (NFG) than FBS-cultured cells. When cocultured in the presence of primary neurons, hADSC which had been grown under hPL supplementation, showed significantly enhanced neurotrophic properties.ConclusionsThe hPL-supplement medium could improve cell proliferation and neurotropism while maintaining stable cell properties, showing effectiveness in clinical translation and significant potential in peripheral nerve research.
