Human induced pluripotent stem cell-derived mesenchymal stem cells promote healing via TNF-?-stimulated gene-6 in inflammatory bowel disease models.

ABSTRACT: Therapeutic applications of tissue-derived mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are hindered by their limited expansion ability and variation across donors. Human induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC)-derived MSCs show greater expandability and therefore offer potential for use in tissue repair therapies. Here we explored the regenerative effects of iPSC-MSCs and the mechanisms by which iPSC-MSCs promote mucosal healing via tumor necrosis factor-?-stimulated gene 6 (TSG-6) in mouse models of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Human iPSCs were induced to differentiate into MSCs following a clinically compliant protocol. The iPSC-MSC treatment promoted mucosal healing in colitic mice, accompanied by increased epithelial cell proliferation, CD44-positive cells, and Lgr5-positive cells. TSG-6 knockdown in iPSC-MSCs or blocking of hyaluronan-CD44 interactions by PEP-1 abrogated the therapeutic effects of iPSC-MSCs, whereas use of recombinant TSG-6 showed therapeutic effects similar to those of iPSC-MSCs. A mouse or patient-derived organoid culture system was developed. Organoids co-cultured with iPSC-MSCs showed increased epithelial cell proliferation, CD44-positive cells, and Lgr5-positive cells, which was abolished by TSG-6 knockdown. TSG-6-induced promoting effects in organoids were dependent on Akt activation and abrogated by the anti-CD44 antibody or MK2206. In conclusion, iPSC-MSCs promoted epithelial cell proliferation to accelerate mucosal healing in a murine colitis model via TSG-6 through hyaluronan-CD44 interactions in an Akt-dependent manner, demonstrating a patient-specific "off-the-shelf" format for IBD treatment.

Project description:: Paracrine signaling by bone-marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) plays a major role in tissue repair. Although the production of regulatory cytokines by MSC transplantation is a critical modulator of tissue regeneration, we focused on exosomes, which are extracellular vesicles that contain proteins and nucleic acids, as a novel additional modulator of cell-to-cell communication and tissue regeneration. To address this, we used radiologic imaging, histological examination, and immunohistochemical analysis to evaluate the role of exosomes isolated from MSC-conditioned medium (CM) in the healing process in a femur fracture model of CD9-/- mice, a strain that is known to produce reduced levels of exosomes. We found that the bone union rate in CD9-/- mice was significantly lower than wild-type mice because of the retardation of callus formation. The retardation of fracture healing in CD9-/- mice was rescued by the injection of exosomes, but this was not the case after the injection of exosomes-free conditioned medium (CM-Exo). The levels of the bone repair-related cytokines, monocyte chemotactic protein-1 (MCP-1), MCP-3, and stromal cell-derived factor-1 in exosomes were low compared with levels in CM and CM-Exo, suggesting that bone repair may be in part mediated by other exosome components, such as microRNAs. These results suggest that exosomes in CM facilitate the acceleration of fracture healing, and we conclude that exosomes are a novel factor of MSC paracrine signaling with an important role in the tissue repair process.SignificanceThis work focuses on exosomes, which are extracellular vesicles, as a novel additional modulator of cell-to-cell communication.
