Olfactory ecto-mesenchymal stem cells possess immunoregulatory function and suppress autoimmune arthritis.

ABSTRACT: Recent studies have identified olfactory ecto-mesenchymal stem cells (OE-MSCs) as a new type of resident stem cell in the olfactory lamina propria. However, it remains unclear whether OE-MSCs possess any immunoregulatory functions. In this study, we found that mouse OE-MSCs expressed higher transforming growth factor-beta and interleukin-10 levels than bone marrow-derived MSCs. In culture, OE-MSCs exerted their immunosuppressive capacity via directly suppressing effector T-cell proliferation and increasing regulatory T (Treg) cell expansion. In mice with collagen-induced arthritis, adoptive transfer of OE-MSCs markedly suppressed arthritis onset and disease severity, which was accompanied by increased Treg cells and reduced Th1/Th17 cell responses in vivo. Taken together, our findings identified a novel function of OE-MSCs in regulating T-cell responses, indicating that OE-MSCs may represent a new cell therapy for the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis and other autoimmune diseases.

IL-17 down-regulates the immunosuppressive capacity of olfactory ecto-mesenchymal stem cells in murine collagen-induced arthritis.

Project description:Olfactory ecto-mesenchymal stem cells (OE-MSCs) are a population of cells which has been recognized as a new resident stem cell type in the olfactory lamina propria. OE-MSCs have been shown to exert their immunosuppressive capacity by modulating T cell responses, including up-regulation of regulatory T cells (Tregs) and down-regulation of Th1/Th17 cells. As an inflammatory cytokine, IL-17 plays a critical role in orchestrating the inflammatory response during the development of collagen-induced arthritis (CIA). However, it is unclear whether the increased level of IL-17 may affect the immunosuppressive function of OE-MSCs under inflammatory condition. In this study, we found that IL-17 could significantly reduce the suppressive capacity of OE-MSCs on CD4+ T cells and down-regulate the suppressive factors produced by OE-MSCs. Notably, IL-17 treatment abolished the capacity of OE-MSCs in inducing Treg expansion. In addition, knockdown of IL-17R in OE-MSCs significantly enhanced their therapeutic effect in ameliorating CIA upon adoptive transfer. Moreover, IL-17R knockdown-OE-MSCs could efficiently induce Tregs expansion and reduce Th1 and Th17 responses. Taken together, all these data suggest that IL-17R knockdown in OE-MSCs may provide a novel strategy in maintaining their immunosuppressive properties for the treatment of autoimmune diseases.

Olfactory ecto-mesenchymal stem cell-derived exosomes ameliorate murine Sjogren's syndrome by modulating the function of myeloid-derived suppressor cells.

Project description:Sjögren's syndrome (SS) is a systemic autoimmune disease characterized by progressive inflammation and tissue damage in salivary glands and lacrimal glands. Our previous studies showed that myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs) exhibited impaired immunosuppressive function during disease progression in patients with SS and mice with experimental Sjögren's syndrome (ESS), but it remains unclear whether restoring the function of MDSCs can effectively ameliorate the development of ESS. In this study, we found that murine olfactory ecto-mesenchymal stem cell-derived exosomes (OE-MSC-Exos) significantly enhanced the suppressive function of MDSCs by upregulating arginase expression and increasing ROS and NO levels. Moreover, treatment with OE-MSC-Exos via intravenous injection markedly attenuated disease progression and restored MDSC function in ESS mice. Mechanistically, OE-MSC-Exo-secreted IL-6 activated the Jak2/Stat3 pathway in MDSCs. In addition, the abundant S100A4 in OE-MSC-Exos acted as a key factor in mediating the endogenous production of IL-6 by MDSCs via TLR4 signaling, indicating an autocrine pathway of MDSC functional modulation by IL-6. Taken together, our results demonstrated that OE-MSC-Exos possess therapeutic potential to attenuate ESS progression by enhancing the immunosuppressive function of MDSCs, possibly constituting a new strategy for the treatment of Sjögren's syndrome and other autoimmune diseases.

Placenta-derived mesenchymal stem cells possess better immunoregulatory properties compared to their cord-derived counterparts-a paired sample study.

Project description:Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) show immunoregulatory properties. Here, we compared MSCs obtained from placenta (P-MSCs) and umbilical cord (C-MSCs) from the same donor, for their immunomodulatory efficacy. P-MSCs and C-MSCs showed similar morphology and phenotypic profile, but different clonogenic ability. Importantly, they showed a significant difference in their immunosuppressive properties as assessed in mixed leukocyte reaction (MLR). The P-MSCs affected the antigen presenting ability of mononuclear cells (MNCs) and dendritic cells (DCs) significantly as compared to C-MSCs resulting in a reduced T-cell proliferation. P-MSC conditioned medium (CM) showed a significant reduction in T cell proliferation as compared to C-MSC CM, thus suggesting that a cell to cell contact is not essential. We found increased levels of IL-10 and TGF?1 and reduction in levels of IFN? in P-MSC MLRs as compared to C-MSC MLRs. Furthermore, the CD3(+) CD4(+) CD25(+) T regulatory cells were enriched in case of P-MSCs in both, MSC-MNC and MSC-DC co-cultures. This observation was further supported by increased mRNA expression of FoxP3 in P-MSCs. Presently, cord-derived MSCs are being employed in transplantation therapies parallel to the bone marrow-derived MSCs. Our findings suggest that P-MSCs can be a better alternative to C-MSCs, to provide aid in immunological ailments.

miR-155 Contributes to the Immunoregulatory Function of Human Mesenchymal Stem Cells.

Project description:ObjectivesMesenchymal stem/stromal cells (MSCs) are widely investigated in regenerative medicine thanks to their immunomodulatory properties. They exert their anti-inflammatory function thanks to the secretion of a number of mediators, including proteins and miRNAs, which can be released in the extracellular environment or in the cargo of extracellular vesicles (EVs). However, the role of miRNAs in the suppressive function of MSCs is controversial. The aim of the study was to identify miRNAs that contribute to the immunomodulatory function of human bone marrow-derived MSCs (BM-MSCs).MethodsHuman BM-MSCs were primed by coculture with activated peripheral blood mononuclear cells (aPBMCs). High throughput miRNA transcriptomic analysis was performed using Human MicroRNA TaqMan® Array Cards. The immunosuppressive function of miRNAs was investigated in mixed lymphocyte reactions and the delayed type hypersensitivity (DTH) murine model.ResultsUpon priming, 21 out of 377 tested miRNAs were significantly modulated in primed MSCs. We validated the up-regulation of miR-29a, miR-146a, miR-155 and the down-regulation of miR-149, miR-221 and miR-361 in additional samples of primed MSCs. We showed that miR-155 significantly reduced the proliferation of aPBMCs in vitro and inflammation in vivo, using the DTH model. Analysis of miRNA-mRNA interactions revealed miR-221 as a potential target gene that is down-regulated by miR-155 both in primed MSCs and in aPBMCs.ConclusionHere, we present evidence that miR-155 participates to the immunosuppressive function of human BM-MSCs and down-regulates the expression of miR-221 as a possible inflammatory mediator.

Role of PD-L1 in licensing immunoregulatory function of dental pulp mesenchymal stem cells.

Project description:BackgroundDental pulp stem cells (DPSCs) are low immunogenic and hold immunomodulatory properties that, along with their well-established multi-potency, might enhance their potential application in autoimmune and inflammatory diseases. The present study focused on the ability of DPSCs to modulate the inflammatory microenvironment through PD1/PD-L1 pathway.MethodsInflammatory microenvironment was created in vitro by the activation of T cells isolated from healthy donors and rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients with anti-CD3 and anti-CD28 antibodies. Direct and indirect co-cultures between DPSCs and PBMCs were carried out to evaluate the activation of immunomodulatory checkpoints in DPSCs and the inflammatory pattern in PBMCs.ResultsOur data suggest that the inflammatory stimuli trigger DPSCs immunoregulatory functions that can be exerted by both direct and indirect contact. As demonstrated by using a selective PD-L1 inhibitor, DPSCs were able to activate compensatory pathways targeting to orchestrate the inflammatory process by modulating pro-inflammatory cytokines in pre-activated T lymphocytes. The involvement of PD-L1 mechanism was also observed in autologous inflammatory status (pulpitis) and after direct exposure to pre-activated T cells from RA patients suggesting that immunomodulatory/anti-inflammatory properties are strictly related to their stemness status.ConclusionsOur findings point out that the communication with the inflammatory microenvironment is essential in licensing their immunomodulatory properties.

The Proteome Profile of Olfactory Ecto-Mesenchymal Stem Cells-Derived from Patients with Familial Alzheimer's Disease Reveals New Insights for AD Study.

Project description:Alzheimer's disease (AD), the most common neurodegenerative disease and the first cause of dementia worldwide, has no effective treatment, and its pathological mechanisms are not yet fully understood. We conducted this study to explore the proteomic differences associated with Familial Alzheimer's Disease (FAD) in olfactory ecto-mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) derived from PSEN1 (A431E) mutation carriers compared with healthy donors paired by age and gender through two label-free liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry approaches. The first analysis compared carrier 1 (patient with symptoms, P1) and its control (healthy donor, C1), and the second compared carrier 2 (patient with pre-symptoms, P2) with its respective control cells (C2) to evaluate whether the protein alterations presented in the symptomatic carrier were also present in the pre-symptom stages. Finally, we analyzed the differentially expressed proteins (DEPs) for biological and functional enrichment. These proteins showed impaired expression in a stage-dependent manner and are involved in energy metabolism, vesicle transport, actin cytoskeleton, cell proliferation, and proteostasis pathways, in line with previous AD reports. Our study is the first to conduct a proteomic analysis of MSCs from the Jalisco FAD patients in two stages of the disease (symptomatic and presymptomatic), showing these cells as a new and excellent in vitro model for future AD studies.

The human nose harbours a niche of olfactory ecto-mesenchymal stem cells displaying neurogenic and osteogenic properties

Project description:We previously identified multipotent stem cells within the lamina propria of the human olfactory mucosa, located in the nasal cavity. We also demonstrated that this cell type differentiates into neural cells and improves locomotor behavior after transplantation in a rat model of Parkinson’s disease. Yet, next to nothing is known about their specific stemness characteristics. We therefore devised a study aiming to compare olfactory lamina propria stem cells from 4 individuals to bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells from 4 age- and gendermatched individuals. Using pangenomic microarrays and immunostaining with 34 cell surface marker antibodies, we show here that olfactory stem cells are closely related to bone marrow stem cells. However, olfactory stem cells exhibit also singular traits. By means of techniques such as proliferation assay, cDNA microarrays, RT-PCR, in vitro and in vivo differentiation, we report that, when compared to bone marrow stem cells, olfactory stem cells display i) a high proliferation rate; ii) a propensity to differentiate into osseous cells and iii) a disinclination to give rise to chondrocytes and adipocytes. Since peripheral olfactory stem cells originate from a neural crest-derived tissue and, as shown here, exhibit an increased expression of neural cellrelated genes, we propose to name them olfactory ecto-mesenchymal stem cells (OE-MSC). Further studies are now required to corroborate the therapeutic potential of OE-MSCs in animal models of bone and brain diseases. Keywords: cell type comparison

Mesenchymal stem cells for treating autoimmune dacryoadenitis.

Project description:Autoimmune dacryoadenitis, such as Sjögren syndrome, comprises multifactorial and complex diseases. Inflammation of the lacrimal gland plays a key role in the pathogenesis of diseases. Unfortunately, current treatment strategies, including artificial tears, anti-inflammatory drugs, punctual occlusion, and immunosuppressive drugs, are only palliative, and long-term administration of these strategies is associated with adverse effects that limit their utility. Hence, an effective and safe treatment for autoimmune dacryoadenitis is urgently needed. Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) have emerged as a promising tool for treating autoimmune dacryoadenitis, owing to their immunosuppressive properties, tissue repair functions, and powerful differentiation capabilities. A large number of studies have focused on the effect of MSCs on autoimmune diseases, such as autoimmune uveitis, inflammatory bowel disease, and collagen-induced arthritis, but few studies have, to date, unequivocally established the efficacy of MSCs for treating autoimmune dacryoadenitis. In this review, we discuss recent advances in MSC treatment for autoimmune dacryoadenitis.
