Cryotherapy Reduces Inflammatory Response Without Altering Muscle Regeneration Process and Extracellular Matrix Remodeling of Rat Muscle.

ABSTRACT: The application of cryotherapy is widely used in sports medicine today. Cooling could minimize secondary hypoxic injury through the reduction of cellular metabolism and injury area. Conflicting results have also suggested cryotherapy could delay and impair the regeneration process. There are no definitive findings about the effects of cryotherapy on the process of muscle regeneration. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the effects of a clinical-like cryotherapy on inflammation, regeneration and extracellular matrix (ECM) remodeling on the Tibialis anterior (TA) muscle of rats 3, 7 and 14 days post-injury. It was observed that the intermittent application of cryotherapy (three 30-minute sessions, every 2 h) in the first 48 h post-injury decreased inflammatory processes (mRNA levels of TNF-α, NF-κB, TGF-β and MMP-9 and macrophage percentage). Cryotherapy did not alter regeneration markers such as injury area, desmin and Myod expression. Despite regulating Collagen I and III and their growth factors, cryotherapy did not alter collagen deposition. In summary, clinical-like cryotherapy reduces the inflammatory process through the decrease of macrophage infiltration and the accumulation of the inflammatory key markers without influencing muscle injury area and ECM remodeling.

Project description:The tissues or organs derived decellularized extracellular matrix carry immunogenicity and the risk of pathogen transmission, resulting in limited therapeutic effects. The cell derived dECM cultured in vitro can address these potential risks, but its impact on wound remodeling is still unclear. This study aimed to explore the role of decellularized extracellular matrix (dECM) extracted from adipose derived stem cells (ADSCs) in skin regeneration. Methods: ADSCs were extracted from human adipose tissue. Then we cultivated adipose-derived stem cell cells and decellularized ADSC-dECM for freeze-drying. Western blot (WB), enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and mass spectrometry (MS) were conducted to analyzed the main protein components in ADSC-dECM. The cell counting assay (CCK-8) and scratch assay were used to explore the effects of different concentrations of ADSC-dECM on the proliferation and migration of human keratinocytes cells (HaCaT), human umbilical vein endothelia cells (HUVEC) and human fibroblasts (HFB), respectively. Moreover, we designed a novel ADSC-dECM-CMC patch which used carboxymethylcellulose (CMC) to load with ADSC-dECM; and we further investigated its effect on a mouse full thickness skin wound model. Results: ADSC-dECM was obtained after decellularization of in vitro cultured human ADSCs. Western blot, ELISA and mass spectrometry results showed that ADSC-dECM contained various bioactive molecules, including collagen, elastin, laminin, and various growth factors. CCK-8 and scratch assay showed that ADSC-dECM treatment could significantly promote the proliferation and migration of HaCaT, human umbilical vein endothelia cells, and human fibroblasts, respectively. To evaluate the therapeutic effect on wound healing in vivo, we developed a novel ADSC-dECM-CMC patch and transplanted it into a mouse full-thickness skin wound model. And we found that ADSC-dECM-CMC patch treatment significantly accelerated the wound closure with time. Further histology and immunohistochemistry indicated that ADSC-dECM-CMC patch could promote tissue regeneration, as confirmed via enhanced angiogenesis and high cell proliferative activity. Conclusion: In this study, we developed a novel ADSC-dECM-CMC patch containing multiple bioactive molecules and exhibiting good biocompatibility for skin reconstruction and regeneration. This patch provides a new approach for the use of adipose stem cells in skin tissue engineering.
