Effects of conditioned medium obtained from human adipose-derived stem cells on skin inflammation.

ABSTRACT:

Introduction

Cell therapy using adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells (ASCs) is a promising avenue of regenerative medicine for the treatment of various diseases. It has been considered that ASCs exert their therapeutic effects through the secretion of multiple factors that are critical for tissue remodeling or the suppression of inflammation. Recently, conditioned medium (CM) from ASCs that contains a complex of secreted factors has received attention as a cost-effective alternative to cell therapy.

Methods

We investigated the effects of CM obtained from ASCs (ASCs-CM) using human dermal fibroblasts (hDFs) and human epidermal keratinocytes with or without interleukin (IL)-1β and examined mRNA levels of marker genes. We also examined alterations in cell proliferation and morphology of hDFs following treatment with ASCs-CM. We further investigated the effects of ASCs-CM treatment on prevention of skin inflammation using a mouse model.

Results

In hDFs and human epidermal keratinocytes, the ASCs-CM treatment suppressed pro-inflammatory factors and enhanced regenerative and remodeling factors with or without interleukin (IL)-1β exposure. The ASCs-CM treatment also enhanced cell proliferation of hDFs and prevented morphological changes in response to IL-1β exposure. Furthermore, in a mouse model of skin inflammation, treatment with ASCs-CM reduced the inflammatory reactions, including redness and thickness.

Conclusions

CM from ASCs may represent a potential alternative to ASC therapy for the treatment of inflammatory skin conditions.

Project description:Adult stem cells have been extensively investigated for tissue repair therapies. Adipose-derived stem cells (ASCs) were shown to improve wound healing by promoting re-epithelialization and vascularization as well as modulating the inflammatory immune response. In this study, we used ex vivo human skin cultured in a six-well plate with trans-well inserts as a model for superficial wounds. Standardized wounds were created and treated with allogeneic ASCs, ASCs conditioned medium (ASC-CM), or cell culture medium (DMEM) supplemented with fetal calf serum (FCS). Skin viability (XTT test), histology (hematoxylin and eosin, H and E), β-catenin expression as well as inflammatory mediators and growth factors were monitored over 12 days of skin culture. We observed only a moderate time-dependent decrease in skin metabolic activity while skin morphology was preserved, and re-epithelialization occurred at the wound edges. An increase in β-catenin expression was observed in the newly formed epithelia, especially in the samples treated with ASC-CM. In general, increased growth factors and inflammatory mediators, e.g., hepatocytes growth factor (HGF), platelet-derived growth factor subunit AA (PDGF-AA), IL-1α, IL-7, TNF-α, and IL-10, were observed over the incubation time. Interestingly, different expression profiles were observed for the different treatments. Samples treated with ASC-CM significantly increased the levels of inflammatory cytokines and PDGF-AA with respect to control, whereas the treatment with ASCs in DMEM with 10% FCS resulted in significantly increased levels of fibroblast growth factor-basic (FGF-basic) and moderate increases of immunomodulatory cytokines. These results confirm that the wound microenvironment can influence the type of mediators secreted by ASCs and the mode as to how they improve the wound healing process. Comparative investigations with pre-activated ASCs will elucidate further aspects of the wound healing mechanism and improve the protocols of ACS application.

Project description:UnlabelledAdipose-derived stem cells (ASCs) mainly exert their function by secreting materials that are collectively termed the secretome. Despite recent attention to the secretome as an alternative to stem cell therapy, the culture conditions for generating optimal secretome contents have not been determined. Therefore, we investigated the role of hypoxic-conditioned media (HCM) from ASCs. Normoxic-conditioned media (NCM) and HCM were obtained after culturing ASCs in 20% O2 or 1% O2 for 24 hours, respectively. Subsequently, partially hepatectomized mice were infused with saline, control medium, NCM, or HCM, and then sera and liver specimens were obtained for analyses. Hypoxia (1% O2) significantly increased mRNA expression of mediators from ASCs, including interleukin-6 (IL-6), tumor necrosis factor ? (TNF-?), hepatocyte growth factor (HGF), and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF). HCM infusion significantly increased the number of Ki67-positive cells in the liver (p < .05). HCM infusion significantly increased phospho-signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3) and decreased suppressor of cytokine signaling 3 (SOCS3) expression in the liver (p < .05). To determine the role of IL-6 in liver regeneration, we then performed IL-6 RNA interference study. Conditioned media (CM) obtained from ASCs, which were transfected with either siIL-6 or siControl, were administered to partially hepatectomized mice. The siIL-6 CM groups exhibited lower liver proliferation (Ki67-positive cells) and markers of regeneration (protein expression of proliferating cell nuclear antigen, p-STAT3, HGF, and VEGF and liver weights) than the siControl CM groups (p < .05). Taken together, hypoxic preconditioning of ASCs increased expression of mediators promoting anti-inflammatory and regenerative responses. The liver regenerative effects of HCM appear to be mediated by persistent and uninhibited expression of STAT3 in the liver, which results from decreased expression of SOCS3.SignificanceIn this study, it was found that treatment with the medium from hypoxic-preconditioned adipose-derived stem cells (ASCs) increased the viability of hepatotoxic hepatocytes and enhance liver regeneration in partially hepatectomized mice. In addition, the researchers first revealed that the hepatoprotective effects of hypoxic-conditioned media are mediated by persistent and uninhibited expression of signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 in the liver, which result from a decreased expression of suppressor of cytokine signaling 3. Therefore, the hypoxic preconditioning of ASCs is expected to play a crucial role in regenerative medicine by optimizing the production of a highly effective secretome from ASCs.
