    Immunomodulatory properties of mesenchymal stem cells are widely studied, supporting the use of MSCs as cell-based therapy in immunological diseases. This study aims to generate cell-free MSC extract and improves their immunomodulatory potential. Intracellular extracts were prepared from adipose-derived stem cells (ADSC) spheroid via a freeze-thawing method. The immunomodulatory capacities of ADSC spheroid extracts were investigated in vitro, including lymphocyte proliferation, T regulatory cell expansion, and macrophage assays. A comparative study was conducted with ADSC monolayer extract. The key immunomodulatory mediators presented in ADSC extract were identified. The results revealed that ADSC spheroid extract could suppress lymphocyte activation while enhancing T regulatory cell expansion. Immunomodulatory molecules such as COX-2, TSG-6, and TGF-β1 were upregulated in ADSC priming via spheroid culture. Selective inhibition of COX-2 abrogates the effect of ADSC extract on inducing T regulatory cell expansion. Thus, ADSC spheroid extract gains high efficacy in regulating the immune responses which are associated in part by COX-2 generation. Furthermore, ADSC spheroid extract possessed a potent anti-inflammation by manipulation of TNF-α production from LPS-activated macrophage. Our current study has highlighted the opportunity of using cell-free extracts from adipose tissue-derived mesenchymal stem cells spheroid as novel immunomodulators for the treatment of immunological-associated diseases.

    Fibronectin and vitronectin alleviate adipose-derived stem cells senescence during long-term culture through the AKT/MDM2/P53 pathway
    (2024-12-01) Tragoonlugkana P.; Pruksapong C.; Ontong P.; Kamprom W.; Supokawej A.; Tragoonlugkana P.; Mahidol University
    Cellular senescence plays a role in the development of aging-associated degenerative diseases. Cell therapy is recognized as a candidate treatment for degenerative diseases. To achieve the goal of cell therapy, the quality and good characteristics of cells are concerned. Cell expansion relies on two-dimensional culture, which leads to replicative senescence of expanded cells. This study aimed to investigate the effect of cell culture surface modification using fibronectin (FN) and vitronectin (VN) in adipose-derived stem cells (ADSCs) during long-term expansion. Our results showed that ADSCs cultured in FN and VN coatings significantly enhanced adhesion, proliferation, and slow progression of cellular senescence as indicated by lower SA-β-gal activities and decreased expression levels of genes including p16, p21, and p53. The upregulation of integrin α5 and αv genes influences phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate 3-kinase (PI3K), and AKT proteins. FN and VN coatings upregulated AKT and MDM2 leading to p53 degradation. Additionally, MDM2 inhibition by Nutlin-3a markedly elevated p53 and p21 expression, increased cellular senescence, and induced the expression of inflammatory molecules including HMGB1 and IL-6. The understanding of FN and VN coating surface influencing ADSCs, especially senescence characteristics, offers a promising and practical point for the cultivation of ADSCs for future use in cell-based therapies.

    The extracts of osteoblast developed from adipose-derived stem cell and its role in osteogenesis
    (2024-12-01) Tangporncharoen R.; Silathapanasakul A.; Tragoonlugkana P.; Pruksapong C.; Tawonsawatruk T.; Supokawej A.; Tangporncharoen R.; Mahidol University
    Cell-based therapy has become an achievable choice in regenerative medicines, particularly for musculoskeletal disorders. Adipose-derived stem cells (ASCs) are an outstanding resource because of their ability and functions. Nevertheless, the use of cells for treatment comes with difficulties in operation and safety. The immunological barrier is also a major limitation of cell therapy, which can lead to unexpected results. Cell-derived products, such as cell extracts, have gained a lot of attention to overcome these limitations. The goal of this study was to optimize the production of ASC-osteoblast extracts as well as their involvement in osteogenesis. The extracts were prepared using a freeze–thaw method with varying temperatures and durations. Overall, osteogenic-associated proteins and osteoinductive potential of the extracts prepared from the osteogenic-induced ASCs were assessed. Our results demonstrated that the freeze–thaw approach is practicable for cell extracts production, with minor differences in temperature and duration having no effect on protein concentration. The ASC-osteoblast extracts contain a significant level of essential specialized proteins that promote osteogenicity. Hence, the freeze–thaw method is applicable for extract preparation and ASC-osteoblast extracts may be beneficial as an optional facilitating biologics in bone anabolic treatment and bone regeneration.

    The Use of Human Platelet Lysate as a Coating Substance for Adipose-Derived Stem Cell Expansion
    (2024-02-23) Tragoonlugkana P.; Chitchongyingcharoen N.; Pruksapong C.; Hassan S.; Ngamkham K.; Kamprom W.; Supokawej A.; Tragoonlugkana P.; Mahidol University
    BACKGROUND: Large-scale production of mesenchymal stromal cells is essential for sufficient therapeutic doses in regenerative medicine. However, long-term cultivation encounters limited cell growth and cellular aging. Therefore, an alternative cell culture approach that promotes proliferation and attenuates cell senescence is required. Human platelet lysate (HPL) is a potent supplement for in vitro cell expansion. Applying HPL as a coating material can potentially improve mesenchymal stromal cell cultures. METHOD: To examine the capacity of HPL, it was used to pre-coat a tissue culture plate for in vitro adipose-derived mesenchymal stromal cell expansion. Alterations in biological features of adipose-derived stem cells (ADSCs) were investigated, including cell adhesion assays, cell proliferation, population doubling time, and cellular senescence. RESULTS: ADSCs cultured on HPL-coated plates significantly increased cell adhesion rate, shortened population doubling time, and stimulated cell growth. The senescent cells were significantly decreased in ADSCs cultured in an HPL-coated plate, and the expression levels of senescence-associated genes, including p16, p21, and p53, were downregulated. Furthermore, Western blotting analysis revealed that HPL was enriched with fibronectin and vitronectin, essential cell adhesive proteins. CONCLUSIONS: HPL was effectively used as a coating material for ADSC expansions. Cellular cultivation on the HPL coating is an alternative approach for producing mesenchymal stromal cells.
