Characterization of Osteogenesis and Chondrogenesis of Human Decellularized Allogeneic Bone with Mesenchymal Stem Cells Derived from Bone Marrow, Adipose Tissue, and Wharton's Jelly.

ABSTRACT: Allogeneic bone grafts are a promising material for bone implantation due to reduced operative trauma, reduced blood loss, and no donor-site morbidity. Although human decellularized allogeneic bone (hDCB) can be used to fill bone defects, the research of revitalizing hDCB blocks with human mesenchymal stem cells (hMSCs) for osteochondral regeneration is missing. The hMSCs derived from bone marrow, adipose tissue, and Wharton's jelly (BMMSCs, ADMSCs, and UMSCs, respectively) are potential candidates for bone regeneration. This study characterized the potential of hDCB as a scaffold for osteogenesis and chondrogenesis of BMMSCs, ADMSCs, and UMSCs. The pore sizes and mechanical strength of hDCB were characterized. Cell survival and adhesion of hMSCs were investigated using MTT assay and F-actin staining. Alizarin Red S and Safranin O staining were conducted to demonstrate calcium deposition and proteoglycan production of hMSCs after osteogenic and chondrogenic differentiation, respectively. A RT-qPCR was performed to analyze the expression levels of osteogenic and chondrogenic markers in hMSCs. Results indicated that BMMSCs and ADMSCs exhibited higher osteogenic potential than UMSCs. Furthermore, ADMSCs and UMSCs had higher chondrogenic potential than BMMSCs. This study demonstrated that chondrogenic ADMSCs- or UMSCs-seeded hDCB might be potential osteochondral constructs for osteochondral regeneration.

Project description:BackgroundAlthough cell therapy provides benefits for outcomes of heart failure, the most optimal cell type to be used clinically remains unknown. Most of the cell products used for therapy in humans require in vitro expansion to obtain a suitable number of cells for treatment; however, the clinical background of the donor and limited starting material may result in the impaired proliferative and reparative capacity of the cells expanded in vitro. Wharton's jelly mesenchymal cells (WJ MSCs) provide a multitude of advantages over adult tissue-derived cell products for therapy. These include large starting tissue material, superior proliferative capacity, and disease-free donors. Thus, WJ MSC if effective would be the most optimal cell source for clinical use.ObjectivesThis study evaluated the therapeutic efficacy of Wharton's jelly (WJ) and bone marrow (BM) mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) in chronic ischemic cardiomyopathy in rats.MethodsHuman WJ MSCs and BM MSCs were expanded in vitro, characterized, and evaluated for therapeutic efficacy in a immunodeficient rat model of ischemic cardiomyopathy. Cardiac function was evaluated with hemodynamics and echocardiography. The extent of cardiac fibrosis, hypertrophy, and inflammation was assessed with histological analysis.ResultsIn vitro analysis revealed that WJ MSCs and BM MSCs are morphologically and immunophenotypically indistinguishable. Nevertheless, the functional analysis showed that WJ MSCs have a superior proliferative capacity, less senescent phenotype, and distinct transcriptomic profile compared to BM MSC. WJ MSCs and BM MSC injected in rat hearts chronically after MI produced a small, but not significant improvement in heart structure and function. Histological analysis showed no difference in the scar size, collagen content, cardiomyocyte cross-sectional area, and immune cell count.ConclusionsHuman WJ and BM MSC have a small but not significant effect on cardiac structure and function when injected intramyocardially in immunodeficient rats chronically after MI.
