Basement membrane proteins modulate cell migration on bovine pericardium extracellular matrix scaffold.

ABSTRACT: Native bovine pericardium (BP) exhibits anisotropy of its surface ECM niches, with the serous surface (i.e., parietal pericardium) containing basement membrane components (e.g., Laminin, Col IV) and the fibrous surface (i.e., mediastinal side) being composed primarily of type I collagen (Col I). Native BP surface ECM niche anisotropy is preserved in antigen removed BP (AR-BP) extracellular matrix (ECM) scaffolds. By exploiting sideness (serous or fibrous surface) of AR-BP scaffolds, this study aims to determine the mechanism by which ECM niche influences human mesenchymal stem cells (hMSCs) migration. Human mesenchymal stem cells (hMSC) seeding on serous surface promoted more rapid cell migration than fibrous surface seeding. Gene analysis revealed that expression of integrin α₃ and α₁₁ were increased in cells cultured on serous surface compared to those on the fibrous side. Monoclonal antibody blockade of α₃β₁ (i.e., laminin binding) inhibited early (i.e. ≤ 6 h) hMSC migration following serous seeding, while having no effect on migration of cells on the fibrous side. Blockade of α₃β₁ resulted in decreased expression of integrin α₃ by cells on serous surface. Monoclonal antibody blockade of α₁₁β₁ (i.e., Col IV binding) inhibited serous side migration at later time points (i.e., 6-24 h). These results confirmed the role of integrin α₃β₁ binding to laminin in mediating early rapid hMSCs migration and α₁₁β₁ binding to Col IV in mediating later hMSCs migration on the serous side of AR-BP, which has critical implications for rate of cellular monolayer formation and use of AR-BP as blood contacting material for clinical applications.

Project description:Cultivated meat, an advancement in cellular agriculture, holds promise in addressing environmental, ethical, and health challenges associated with traditional meat production. Utilizing tissue engineering principles, cultivated meat production employs biomaterials and technologies to create cell-based structures by introducing cells into a biocompatible scaffold, mimicking tissue organization. Among the cell sources used for producing muscle-like tissue for cultivated meats, primary adult stem cells like muscle satellite cells exhibit robust capabilities for proliferation and differentiation into myocytes, presenting a promising avenue for cultivated meat production. Evolutionarily optimized for growth in a 3D microenvironment, these cells benefit from the biochemical and biophysical cues provided by the extracellular matrix (ECM), regulating cell organization, interactions, and behavior. While plant protein-based scaffolds have been explored for their utilization for cultivated meat, they lack the biological cues for animal cells unless functionalized. Conversely, a decellularized bovine placental tissue ECM, processed from discarded birth tissue, achieves the biological functionalities of animal tissue ECM without harming animals. In this study, collagen and total ECM were prepared from decellularized bovine placental tissues. The collagen content was determined to be approximately 70% and 40% in isolated collagen and ECM, respectively. The resulting porous scaffolds, crosslinked through a dehydrothermal (DHT) crosslinking method without chemical crosslinking agents, supported the growth of bovine myoblasts. ECM scaffolds exhibited superior compatibility and stability compared to collagen scaffolds. In an attempt to make cultivate meat constructs, bovine myoblasts were cultured in steak-shaped ECM scaffolds for about 50 days. The resulting construct not only resembled muscle tissues but also displayed high cellularity with indications of myogenic differentiation. Furthermore, the meat constructs were cookable and able to sustain the grilling/frying. Our study is the first to utilize a unique bovine placentome-derived ECM scaffold to create a muscle tissue-like meat construct, demonstrating a promising and sustainable option for cultivated meat production.
