Article Abstract

Myeloid cells, which originate from hematopoietic stem/progenitor cells (HSPCs), play a crucial role in mitigating infections. This study aimed to explore the impact of mesenchymal stem/stromal cells (MSCs) on the differentiation of HSPCs and progenitors through the C-C motif chemokine CCL2/CCR2 signaling pathway. Murine MSCs, identified as PDGFRαSca-1 cells (PαS cells), were found to secrete CCL2, particularly in response to lipopolysaccharide stimulation. MSC-secreted CCL2 promoted the differentiation of granulocyte/macrophage progenitors into the myeloid lineage. MSC-derived CCL2 plays an important role in the early phase of myeloid cell differentiation in vivo. Single-cell RNA sequencing analysis confirmed that CCL2-mediated cell fate determination was also observed in human bone marrow cells. These findings provide valuable insights for investigating the in vivo effects of MSC transplantation.

Mesenchymal stem/stromal cells (MSCs) have been identified as a promising therapeutic option for osteoarthritis, graft vs. host disease and cardiovascular diseases, among others. For widespread application of these therapies, robust and scaled manufacturing processes are required that reliably yield high amounts of high quality MSCs.

Bone-related injuries represent a major global challenge, particularly for the aging population. While bone has self-healing capabilities, large defects and non-union fractures often fail to completely regenerate, leading to long-term disability and the need for surgical intervention. Autologous bone grafts remain the gold standard for such procedures, but challenges such as limited donor availability and donor site comorbidity persist.

The allogeneic administration of equine mesenchymal stem/stromal cells (MSCs) has numerous advantages over autologous therapy, but their interactions with the patient's immune system need to be further elucidated. These interactions can be influenced by factors such as the compatibility between donor-receptor for the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) and by the MHC expression levels, which can change under different conditions like inflammatory exposure and chondrogeneic differentiation. In this study, we evaluated the local immune response induced by chondrogeneically differentiated (MSC-chondro), pro-inflammatory primed (MSC-primed) and basal (MSC-naïve) MSCs, and how this response changes the immunomodulatory and immunogenic profiles of MSCs in vivo.

Osteoblast differentiation is essential for skeletal development and homeostasis. Although bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem/stromal cells (BM-MSCs) are commonly used to study osteoblast differentiation in the context of bone homeostasis, their relevance to osteoblast differentiation during human skeletal development remains unclear. To understand the regulatory mechanisms underlying osteoblast differentiation in a human developmental context, we performed Assay for Transposase-Accessible Chromatin sequencing (ATAC-seq) and RNA-seq analyses on osteoblasts isolated from an in vivo implantation system using induced sclerotome derived from Col2.

Fetal growth restriction (FGR), driven by intrauterine hypoperfusion, delays brain development and heightens the risk of neurodevelopmental disorders. Nonetheless, current diagnostic strategies rarely capture the subtle neuropathology that emerges in mild FGR. To overcome this limitation, we employed an innovative rodent model that replicates mild FGR through gradual and chronic intrauterine hypoperfusion, mirroring clinical conditions overlooked by conventional severe or acute FGR models.
