Abstract
Hand and face transplants are becoming increasingly common, recording progressively more penile, uterus, abdominal wall, and allotransplantation cases reported worldwide. Despite current protocols allow long-term survival of the allografts, the ultimate goal of donor-specific tolerance has not been achieved yet. In fact, the harmful adverse effects related to the lifelong administration of immunosuppressive agents are the main drawbacks for vascularized composite allotransplantations. Research is very active in investigating alternative methods to induce greater tolerance while minimizing toxicity. Adipose-derived stem cells (ASCs) represent promising cell therapies for immunomodulation in preclinical and clinical settings. Their clinical appeal is due to their easy harvest in large quantities through a noninvasive and well-accepted approach; they may well promote donor-specific tolerance and potentially reduce immunosuppression. Several experimental studies exist, but lacking review articles reporting current evidence. This work proposes a literature review on the immunomodulatory role of ASCs in vascularized composite allotransplantations. In vitro and in vivo evidence will be summarized. The role that cell passaging and upstream progenitors-the so-called spheroid ASCs-may play in modulating the immune response will also be discussed. Finally, this article will summarize current knowledge on biodistribution, migration, and homing of injected stem cells. This review may well provide useful information for preclinical and clinical studies, aiming at a breakthrough for donor-specific tolerance.

![]()
Introduction:Mesenchymal stromal/stem cells (MSCs) derived from fat tissue are an encouraging tool for regenerative medicine. They share properties similar to the bone marrow-derived MSCs, but the amount of MSCs per gram of fat tissue is 500x higher. The fat tissue can easily be digested by collagenase, releasing a heterogeneous cell fraction called stromal vascular fraction (SVF) which contains a variable amount of stromal/stem cells. In Europe, cell products like the SVF derived from fat tissue are considered advanced therapy medicinal product (ATMPs). As a consequence, the manufacturing process has to be approved via GMP-compliant process validation. The problem of the process validation for SVF is the heterogeneity of this fraction.
Methods: Here, we modified existing purification strategies by adding an additional plastic adherence incubation of maximal 20 hours after SVF isolation. The resulting cell fraction was characterized and compared to SVF as well as cultivated adipose-derived stromal/stem cells (ASCs) with respect to viability and cell yield, the expression of surface markers, differentiation potential and cytokine expression.
Results: Short-term incubation significantly reduced the heterogeneity of the resulting cell fraction compared to SVF. The cells were able to differentiate into adipocytes, chondrocytes, and osteoblasts. More importantly, they expressed trophic proteins which have been previously associated with the beneficial effects of MSCs. Furthermore, GMP compliance of the production process described herein was acknowledged by the national regulatory agencies (DE_BB_01_GMP_2017_1018).
Conclusion: Addition of a short purification-step after the SVF isolation is a cheap and fast strategy to isolate a homogeneous uncultivated GMP-compliant cell fraction of ASCs.

Abstract
Peripheral vascular disease results from narrowing of the peripheral arteries that supply oxygenated blood and nutrients to the legs and feet. This pathology causes symptoms such as intermittent claudication (pain with walking), painful ischaemic ulcerations, or even limbthreatening gangrene. It is generally believed that the vascular endothelium, a monolayer of endothelial cells (ECs) that lines the luminal surface of all blood and lymphatic vessels, plays a dominant role in vascular homeostasis and vascular regeneration. As a result, stem cell-based regeneration of the endothelium may be a promising approach for the treatment of PAD. Critical limb ischaemia (CLI) is an advanced form of peripheral artery disease which is responsible for about 100,000 amputations each year in the US. Trials to date have reported clinical improvement and reduced need for amputation in patients with CLI who receive autologous bone marrow or mobilised peripheral blood stem cells for stimulation of angiogenesis. There is no effective treatment for lower limb ischaemia caused by peripheral vascular disease and it is necessary to amputate the limb at the end stage. Therefore, the concept of effective therapeutic angiogenesis has become widely accepted during the past few years and it has emerged as a strategy to treat tissue ischaemia by promoting collateral growth using drug, gene or cell therapy. This article provides an overview of current therapeutic challenges for the treatment of critical limb ischaemia, the basic mechanisms of stem cell therapy, the most relevant clinical trials as well as future directions for translational research in this area.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Heparin/protamine micro/nanoparticles (LH/P-MPs) were recently developed as low-molecular weight, biodegradable carriers for adipose-derived stromal cells (ADSCs). These particles can be used for a locally delivered stem cell therapy that promotes angiogenesis. LH/P-MPs bind to the cell surface of ADSCs and promote cell-to-cell interaction and aggregation of ADSCs. Cultured ADSC/LH/P-MP aggregates remain viable. Here, we examined the ability of these aggregates to rescue limb loss in a mouse model of hindlimb ischemia. METHODS Unilateral hindlimb ischemia was induced in adult male BALB/c mice by ligation of the iliac artery and hindlimb vein. For allotransplantation of ADSCs from the same inbred strain, we injected ADSC alone or ADSC/LH/P-MP aggregates or control medium (sham-treated) directly into the ischemic muscles. Ischemic limb blood perfusion, vessel density, and vessel area were recorded. The extent of ischemic limb necrosis or limb loss was assessed on postoperative days 2, 7, and 14. RESULTS Compared with the sham-treatment control, treatment with ADSCs alone showed modest effects on blood perfusion recovery and increased the number of α-SMA-positive vessels. Response to ADSC/LH/P-MP aggregates was significantly greater than ADSCs alone for every endpoint. ADSC/LH/P-MP aggregates more effectively prevented the loss of ischemic hindlimbs than ADSCs alone or the sham-treatment. CONCLUSION The LH/P-MPs augmented the effects of ADSCs on angiogenesis and reversal of limb ischemia. Use of ADSC/LH/P-MP aggregates offers a novel and convenient treatment method and potentially represents a promising new therapeutic approach to inducing angiogenesis in ischemic diseases.

Abstract
The field of immunometabolism has come a long way in the past decade, leading to the emergence of a new role for white adipose tissue (WAT) that is now recognized to stand at the junction of immune and metabolic regulations. Interestingly, a crucial role of the abundant and heterogeneous immune population present in WAT has been proposed in the induction and development of metabolic diseases. Although a large body of data focused on mature immune cells, only few scattered studies are dedicated to leukocyte production, and the activity of hematopoietic stem cells (HSC) in these pathological states. Considering that blood cell production and the differentiation of HSCs and their progeny is orchestrated, in part, by complex interacting signals emanating from their microenvironment, it thus seems worth to better understand the relationships between metabolism and HSC. This review discusses the alterations of hematopoietic process described in metabolic diseases and focused on the emerging data concerning HSC present in WAT.

Abstract
Regeneration of damaged periodontium is challenging due to its multi-tissue composition. Mesenchymalstem cell-based approaches using adipose-derived stromal cells (ASCs) may contribute to periodontal reconstruction, particularly when combined with the use of scaffolds to maintain a space for new tissue growth. The aim of this study was to assess the regenerative potential of ASCs derived from inbred or outbred rats in combination with novel solid scaffolds composed of PLGA (Poly D,L-lactic-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA-scaffolds). Cultured ASCs seeded onto PLGA scaffolds (ASCs/PLGA) or PLGA-scaffolds (PLGA) alone were transplanted into periodontal fenestration defects created in F344 or Sprague Dawley (SD) rats. Micro-CT analysis showed a significantly higher percentage of bone growth in the ASCs/PLGA groups compared with the PLGA-alone groups at five weeks after surgery. Similarly, histomorphometric analysis demonstrated thicker growth of periodontal ligament and cementum layers in the ASCs/PLGA-groups compared with the PLGA-alone groups. In addition, transplanted DiI-labeled ASCs were observed in the periodontal regenerative sites. The present investigation demonstrated the marked ability of ASCs in combination with PLGA scaffolds to repair periodontal defects.

Abstract
Adipose-derived stem cells (ASCs) are considered a great alternative source of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs). Unlike bone marrow stem cells (BMSCs), ASCs can be retrieved in high numbers from lipoaspirate, a by-product of liposuction procedures. Given that ASCs represent an easily accessible and abundant source of multipotent cells, ASCs have garnered attention and curiosity from both scientific and clinical communities for their potential in clinical applications. Furthermore, their unique immunobiology and secretome are attractive therapeutic properties. A decade since the discovery of a stem cell reservoir residing within adipose tissue, ASC-based clinical trials have grown over the years around the world along with assessments made on their safety and efficacy. With the progress of ASCs into clinical applications, the aim towards producing clinical-grade ASCs becomes increasingly important. Several countries have recognised the growing industry of cell therapies and have developed regulatory frameworks to assure their safety. With more research efforts made to understand their effects in both scientific and clinical settings, ASCs hold great promise as a future therapeutic strategy in treating a wide variety of diseases. Therefore, this review seeks to highlight the clinical applicability of ASCs as well as their progress in clinical trials across various medical disciplines.

Abstract
White adipose tissue (WAT) is the focus of new interest because of the presence of an abundant and complex immune cell population that is involved in key pathologies such as metabolic syndrome. Based on in vivo reconstitution assays, it is thought that these immune cells are derived from the bone marrow (BM). However, previous studies have shown that WAT exhibits specific hematopoietic activity exerted by an unknown subpopulation of cells. In the present study, we prospectively isolated a peculiar hematopoietic stem/progenitor cell population from murine WAT. The cells are phenotypically similar to BM hematopoietic stem cells and are able to differentiate into both myeloid and lymphoid lineages in vitro. In competitive repopulation assays in vivo, they reconstituted the innate immune compartment in WAT preferentially and more efficiently than BM cells, but did not reconstitute hematopoietic organs. They were also able to give rise to multilineage engraftment in both secondary recipients and in utero transplantation. Therefore, we propose that WAT hematopoietic cells constitute a population of immature cells that are able to renew innate immune cell populations. Considering the amount of WAT in adults, our results suggest that WAT hematopoietic activity controls WAT inflammatory processes and also supports innate immune responses in other organs.

Abstract
Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are potential and optimal stem cells in clinical cell therapy, and fetal bovine serum (FBS) is widely used for expansion of MSCs, despite the risks of infectious disease transmission and immunological reaction of the xenogenic origin. This study was designed to compare human four blood group cord blood serum (CBS) with FBS in culturing human placenta-derived mesenchymal stem cells (hPDMSCs), which were derived from four blood group donors. The expansion medium included: 10% FBS, 10% A-CBS, 10% B-CBS, 10% O-CBS, and 10% AB-CBS. Cumulative population doubling, generation time, fold expansion rates and differentiation capacity, cell cycle, and immunophenotype were also assessed. The results showed that fold expansion rate and cumulative population doubling of hPDMSCs significantly increased during long-term MSC expansion in CBS medium, but the generation time decreased compared with FBS. CBS might be an effective supplement for stem cells expand rapidly ex vivo. Cell cycle and differentiation assays showed that most of the hPDMSCs expanding in the presence of CBS were in stationary phase, which was the characteristic of stem cells, and they retained their ability to differentiate into chondrogenic and endothelial cells. By comparing these four blood groups of CBS, we found that there was no significant difference among different blood groups in culturing hPDMSCs, which were isolated from different blood group donors. So CBS may be an optimal replacement to avoid the risks of FBS application in expansion of stem cell for clinical cell therapy and tissue engineering.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Avascular necrosis of the femoral head (ANFH) is a highly mutilating disease. There are no effective ways to treat early femoral head ischemia. Peripheral blood stem cell (PBSC) transplantation may be superior to conventional bone marrow transplantation. Small intestinal submucosae matrix (SIS) is composed of highly conserved collagens, glycoproteins, proteoglycans, and glycoaminoglycans in their natural configuration and concentrations. When implanted in a number of microenvironments in vivo, SIS has been used to induce proliferation, remodeling, and regeneration of host tissues. This study was designed to verify the curative effects of PBSC and SIS transplantation-induced vascular regeneration to improve ischemic femoral head necrosis in rabbits. METHODS 32 New Zealand white rabbits underwent ischemic femoral head necrosis modeling in both hindlimbs by liquid-nitrogen refrigeration. All rabbits were intraperitoneally injected with grannlocytectomy-stimulating factor (250 μg/kg/d), except for normal control subjects injected with equivalent saline solution. After separation of peripheral blood stem cells (PBSCs), 64 femoral heads in 32 rabbits were randomly divided into 4 groups: group A, cancellous bone and peripheral blood stem cells cultured with small intestinal submucosa; group B, cancellous bone and PBSCs; group C, cancellous bone autografts; and group D, no treatment. The specimens were harvested at 4 and 8 weeks after surgery. All specimens were examined to observe angiogenesis and osteogenesis repairing the avascular necrosis of the femoral head by using gross observation, x-ray, histology, and immunohistochemical staining. RESULTS In 4 weeks after peripheral stem cell transplantation, the standing ability and activity of the transplanted hindlimbs were improved remarkably, but there were no obvious changes in the control limbs. X-rays showed a greater density of grafts than the host bone in groups A,B, and group C was unchanged at 4 weeks. Histology revealed many osteoprogenitor cells and osteoblasts and no inflammatory cell infiltration at 4 weeks with much new bone formed at 8 weeks in group A and at 4 weeks in group B. The cancellous bone autograft was absorbed completely at 8 weeks in group C. There was little osteoid tissue formed in group D at 8 weeks. The zone of new bone formation in group A was greater than that in group B (P < .05), but there was no significant difference between groups A and C (P > .05). Immunohistochemical staining with CD31 mouse antibody showed greater amounts and zones of new blood vessels in groups A and B at 4 and 8 weeks and little evidence in group D. There was no significant difference between groups A and B (P > .05) and significant differences between groups A and B versus C and D (P < .05). CONCLUSION Transplantation of PBSCs cultured with SIS effectively improved ischemic femoral head necrosis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Adipogenous tissue derived stem cells (ASC) are available in abundance in the human body and can differentiate in the presence of lineage-specific induction factors, for example, in myogenic, adipogenic, chondrogenic and osteogenic cells. The aim of this study was to evaluate the impact of osteogenic induced ASC's (O-ASC) on revascularization and cellular repopulation of avital cortical bone employing a vascularized bovine scaffold. METHODS An inguinal arterio-venous bundle was dissected in the groin of female white New Zealand rabbits (n = 6) and placed centrally inside an O-ASC seeded scaffold via a central drill hole. In the same surgical session this construct was placed into a segment of avital cortical bone allograft from a donor rabbit. Unseeded scaffolds that were implanted and treated in the same fashion served as controls (n = 6). In order to prevent external revascularization, all constructs were wrapped in silicon foil and finally implanted in the rabbits' groin. Three months later, the constructs were explanted and investigated for vascularization of (a) the scaffold (b) the surrounding bone allograft. Histological stainings to determine cell growth, cellular repopulation of the scaffold and the cortical bone matrix, as well as inflammatory parameters were carried out. RESULTS O-ASC seeded scaffolds showed a significant increase in new vessel formation in the scaffold as well as in the bone allograft compared to unseeded scaffolds. Furthermore, new vital osteocytes as a sign of cellular repopulation inside the bone allograft were found only in the treatment group. Vital chondrocytes were only found in the O-ASC seeded scaffolds as well. CONCLUSION The presence of O-ASC significantly induce neo-vascularization and osteocytic repopulation of previously avital bone allograft as opposed to unseeded scaffolds in a rabbit model. Hence, this model might be of relevant value for future bone tissue engineering research and for re-vitalizing marginally nourished bone such as in avascular bone necrosis.

Abstract
Adipose stem cells (ASCs) are an attractive and abundant stem cell source with therapeutic applicability in diverse fields for the repair and regeneration of acute and chronically damaged tissues. Importantly, unlike the human bone marrow stromal/stem stem cells (BMSCs) that are present at low frequency in the bone marrow, ASCs can be retrieved in high number from either liposuction aspirates or subcutaneous adipose tissue fragments and can easily be expanded in vitro. ASCs display properties similar to that observed in BMSCs and, upon induction, undergo at least osteogenic, chondrogenic, adipogenic and neurogenic, differentiation in vitro. Furthermore, ASCs have been shown to be immunoprivileged, prevent severe graft-versus-host disease in vitro and in vivo and to be genetically stable in long-term culture. They have also proven applicability in other functions, such as providing hematopoietic support and gene transfer. Due to these characteristics, ASCs have rapidly advanced into clinical trials for treatment of a broad range of conditions. As cell therapies are becoming more frequent, clinical laboratories following good manufacturing practices are needed. At the same time as laboratory processes become more extensive, the need for control in the processing laboratory grows consequently involving a greater risk of complications and possibly adverse events for the recipient. Therefore, the safety, reproducibility and quality of the stem cells must thoroughly be examined prior to extensive use in clinical applications. In this review, some of the aspects of examination on ASCs in vitro and the utilization of ASCs in clinical studies are discussed.

Abstract
Adipose-derived stromal cells (ADSCs) are close relatives of bone marrow mesenchymal stromal cells (BM-MSCs). The ease of access to subcutaneous fat pad and the abundance of stromal precursors make fat tissue an attractive source of stromal cells for clinicians. However, their ability to support hematopoietic stem cells in vitro and in vivo has not been established definitively. Thus, their usefulness in supporting hematopoietic stem cell engraftment is not as clear as with BM-MSCs. In this article, we show that human ADSCs, cultured with a good manufacturing practice medium, maintain in vitro human early and committed hematopoietic progenitors and support their complete differentiation toward myeloid and lymphoid lineages. Compared with BM-MSCs, ADSCs elicit a more precocious early progenitor formation and faster proliferation and differentiation of hematopoietic progenitors. Further, in vivo, when co-injected in NOD.Cg-Prkdc(scid) Il2(rgtm1Wjl)/SzJ (NSG) mice with a low number of human CD34(+) cells, ADSCs enabled the higher production of immature human hematopoietic progenitors and CD45(+) cells when compared with BM-MSCs. As a whole, our results indicate that human ADSCs, isolated and expanded under clinical-grade conditions, support hematopoiesis in vitro and in vivo and thus provide the rationale for their use in supporting hematopoietic reconstitution in clinical settings.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Avascular necrosis of the femoral head (ANFH) is a highly mutilating disease. There is no effective way to treat femoral head ischemia. This study was designed to show the curative effects of peripheral blood stem cell transplantation to induce vascular regeneration and improve ischemic femoral head necrosis in rabbits. METHODS Twenty New Zealand white rabbits underwent ischemic femoral head necrosis in both hindlimbs using liquid-nitrogen refrigeration. One cohort of rats was intraperitoneally injected with granulocyte-specific colony-stimulating factor (250 microg/kg/d), and control animals received equivalent saline solution. The right side was used as the transplantation group and the left as the control. After separation of peripheral blood, a stem cell suspension was poured into the right femoral artery and saline solution into the left femoral artery. RESULTS At 4 weeks after peripheral stem cell transplantation, standing ability and activity of the the transplanted right hindlimb were remarkably improved, but there were no obvious changes in the control limbs. The experimental rabbits underwent arteriography of bilateral femoral heads, which indicated increased and thickened blood supply to the transplanted right hindlimb compared with the left control. CONCLUSION Peripheral blood stem cell transplantation improved ischemic femoral head necrosis.

Abstract
In preclinical studies, human adipose stem cells (ASCs) have been shown to have therapeutic applicability, but standard expansion methods for clinical applications remain yet to be established. ASCs are typically expanded in the medium containing fetal bovine serum (FBS). However, sera and other animal-derived culture reagents stage safety issues in clinical therapy, including possible infections and severe immune reactions. By expanding ASCs in the medium containing human serum (HS), the problem can be eliminated. To define how allogeneic HS (alloHS) performs in ASC expansion compared to FBS, a comparative in vitro study in both serum supplements was performed. The choice of serum had a significant effect on ASCs. First, to reach cell proliferation levels comparable with 10% FBS, at least 15% alloHS was required. Second, while genes of the cell cycle pathway were overexpressed in alloHS, genes of the bone morphogenetic protein receptor-mediated signaling on the transforming growth factor beta signaling pathway regulating, for example, osteoblast differentiation, were overexpressed in FBS. The result was further supported by differentiation analysis, where early osteogenic differentiation was significantly enhanced in FBS. The data presented here underscore the importance of thorough investigation of ASCs for utilization in cell therapies. This study is a step forward in the understanding of these potential cells.

Abstract
Adipose tissue is now recognized as an accessible, abundant, and reliable site for the isolation of adult stem cells suitable for tissue engineering and regenerative medicine applications. The past decade has witnessed an explosion of preclinical data relating to the isolation, characterization, cryopreservation, differentiation, and transplantation of freshly isolated stromal vascular fraction cells and adherent, culture-expanded, adipose-derived stromal/stem cells in vitro and in animal models. This body of work has provided evidence supporting clinical translational applications of adipose-derived cells in safety and efficacy trials. The present article reviews the case reports and phase I-III clinical evidence using autologous adipose-derived cells that have been published, to date, in the fields of gastroenterology, neurology, orthopedics, reconstructive surgery, and related clinical disciplines. Future directions and challenges facing the field are discussed and evaluated.

Abstract
Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) have emerged as a new therapeutic modality for reconstituting the hematopoietic microenvironment by improving engraftment in stem cell transplantation. However, the availability of conventional bone marrow (BM)-derived MSCs (BMSCs) is limited. Recent studies showed that a large number of MSCs can be easily isolated from fat tissue (adipose tissue-derived MSCs [ADSCs]). In this study, we extensively evaluated the hematopoiesis-supporting properties of ADSCs, which are largely unknown. In vitro coculture and progenitor assays showed that ADSCs generated significantly more granulocytes and progenitor cells from human hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) than BMSCs. We found that ADSCs express the chemokine CXCL12, a critical regulator of hematopoiesis, at levels that are three fold higher than those with BMSCs. The addition of a CXCL12 receptor antagonist resulted in a lower yield of granulocytes from ADSC layers, whereas the addition of recombinant CXCL12 to BMSC cocultures promoted the growth of granulocytes. In vivo cell homing assays showed that ADSCs facilitated the homing of mouse HSCs to the BM better than BMSCs. ADSCs injected into the BM cavity of fatally irradiated mice reconstituted hematopoiesis more promptly than BMSCs and subsequently rescued mice that had received a low number of HSCs. Secondary transplantation experiments showed that ADSCs exerted favorable effects on long-term HSCs. These results suggest that ADSCs can be a promising therapeutic alternative to BMSCs.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AIMS Human adipose stem cells (ASC) are an abundant, readily available population of multipotent progenitor cells that reside in adipose tissue. ASC have been shown to have therapeutic applicability in pre-clinical studies, but a standardized expansion method for clinical cell therapy has yet to be established. Isolated ASC are typically expanded in medium containing fetal bovine serum (FBS); however, sera and other culturing reagents of animal origin in clinical therapy pose numerous safety issues, including possible infections and severe immune reactions. METHODS To identify optimal conditions for ex vivo expansion of ASC, the effects of seven serum-free (SF) and xeno-free (XF) media were investigated with both FBS and allogeneic human serum (alloHS; as a control media). Surface marker expression, proliferation, morphology and differentiation analyzes were utilized for investigating the effects of media on ASC. RESULTS The proliferation and morphology analysis demonstrated significant differences between ASC cultured in SF/XF culture media compared with serum-containing culture media, with medium prototype StemPro MSC SFM XenoFree providing significantly higher proliferation rates than ASC cultured in media containing serum, while still maintaining the differentiation potential and surface marker expression profile characteristic of ASC. CONCLUSIONS Looking forward, fully defined XF media formulations will provide the means for the development and approval of safer clinical cell therapy treatments. However, to fully recognize the capacity of these XF culture media, further pre-clinical safety and efficacy studies must be performed.

Abstract
Electrospinning has recently gained widespread attention as a process capable of producing nanoscale fibres that mimic native extracellular matrix. In this study, we compared the osteogenic differentiation behaviour of human adipose stem cells (ASCs) on a 3D nanofibre matrix of type I rat tail collagen (RTC) and a 2D RTC collagen-coated substrate, using a novel serum-free osteogenic medium. The serum-free medium significantly enhanced the numbers of proliferating cells in culture, compared to ASCs in traditional basal medium containing 10% animal serum, highlighting a potential clinical role for in vitro stem cell expansion. Osteogenic differentiation behaviour was assessed at days 7, 14 and 21 using quantitative real-time RT-PCR analysis of the osteogenic genes collagen I (Coll I), alkaline phosphatase (ALP), osteopontin (OP), osteonectin (ON), osteocalcin (OC) and core-binding factor-alpha (cbfa1). All genes were upregulated (>one-fold) in ASCs cultured on nanofibre scaffolds over 2D collagen coatings by day 21. Synthesis of mineralized extracellular matrix on the scaffolds was assessed on day 21 with Alizarin red staining. These studies demonstrate that 3D nanoscale morphology plays a critical role in regulating cell fate processes and in vitro osteogenic differentiation of ASCs under serum-free conditions.

Abstract
Bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) localize to solid tumors. Defining the signaling mechanisms that regulate this process is important in understanding the role of MSCs in tumor growth. Using a combination of chromatography and electrospray tandem mass spectrometry we have identified novel soluble signaling molecules that induce MSC chemotaxis present in conditioned medium of the breast carcinoma cell line MDA-MB231. Previous work has employed survey strategies using ELISA assay to identify known chemokines that promote MSC chemotaxis. While these studies provide valuable insights into the intercellular signals that impact MSC behavior, many less well-described, but potentially important soluble signaling molecules could be overlooked using these methods. Through the less directed method of column chromatography we have identified novel candidate MSC chemotactic peptides. Two proteins, cyclophilin B and hepatoma-derived growth factor were then further characterized and shown to promote MSC chemotaxis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Adipose tissue provides an easily accessible and abundant source of putative stem cells for translational clinical research. Currently prevalent culture techniques include the use of FBS, a highly variable and undefined component, which brings with it the potential for adverse patient reactions. In an effort to eliminate the use of animal products in human adipose stem cell (ASC) cultures, we have developed two new culture methods, a very low human serum expansion medium and a completely serum-free medium. METHODS Through serial testing, a highly enriched medium formulation was developed for use with and without the addition of 0.5% human serum, an amount easily obtainable from autologous blood draws. RESULTS Very low-serum culture yielded population-doubling times averaging 1.86 days in early passage, while the serum-free formulation was associated with less robust cell growth, with doubling times averaging 5.79 days. ASC in both conditions maintained its ability to differentiate into adipo-, chondro- and osteogenic lineages in vitro, despite lower expression of CD34 in early passage. Expression of ALDH, HLA, CD133, CD184, and CD31 was comparable with that seen in cells cultured in 10% FBS. DISCUSSION These newly developed culture conditions provide a unique environment within which to study ASCs without the interference of animal serum, and allow for the rapid expansion of autologous ASCs in culture in an animal product-free environment for use in human clinical trials.

Abstract
There is a growing need for effective animal models to carry out experimental studies on human hematopoietic and immune systems without putting individuals at risk. Progress in development of small animal models for the in vivo investigation of human hematopoiesis and immunity has seen three major breakthroughs over the last three decades. First, CB 17-Prkdc(scid) (abbreviated CB 17-scid) mice were discovered in 1983, and engraftment of these mice with human fetal tissues (SCID-Hu model) and peripheral blood mononuclear cells (Hu-PBL-SCID model) was reported in 1988. Second, NOD-scid mice were developed and their enhanced ability to engraft with human hematolymphoid tissues as compared with CB17-scid mice was reported in 1995. NOD-scid mice have been the "gold standard" for studies of human hematolymphoid engraftment in small animal models over the last 10 years. Third, immunodeficient mice bearing a targeted mutation in the IL-2 receptor common gamma chain (IL2rgamma(null)) were developed independently by four groups between 2002 and 2005, and a major increase in the engraftment and function of human hematolymphoid cells as compared with NOD-scid mice has been reported. These new strains of immunodeficient IL2rgamma(null) mice are now being used for studies in human hematopoiesis, innate and adaptive immunity, autoimmunity, infectious diseases, cancer biology, and regenerative medicine. In this chapter, we discuss the current state of development of these strains of mice, the remaining deficiencies, and how approaches used to increase the engraftment and function of human hematolymphoid cells in CB 17-scid mice and in previous models based on NOD-scid mice may enhance human hematolymphoid engraftment and function in NOD-scid IL2rgamma(null) mice.

Abstract
BACKGROUND/AIM Although transplantation of MSC derived from bone marrow or adipose tissues has been shown in proangiogenic action in hindlimb ischemia model of nude mice, little information is available regarding comparison of the angiogenic potency between human adipose stromal cells (hADSC) and bone marrow stromal cells (hBMSC). We compared their therapeutic potential by transplantation of equal numbers of hADSC or hBMSC in a nude mice model of hindlimb ischemia. METHODS AND RESULTS One day after creating hindlimb ischemia, mice were randomized to receive hADSC transplantation (hADSC group), hBMSC transplantation (hBMSC group), or vehicle transplantation (Control group). Two weeks after transplantation, the laser Doppler perfusion index was significantly higher in the hADSC group and hBMSC group than in the control group. Comparison between hADSC and hBMSC group showed better recovery of blood flow in hADSC group than in hBMSC group. Conditioned media from hADSC (hADSC-CM) showed better in vitro tube formation of hADSC than conditioned media from hBMSC (hBMSC-CM). hADSC showed higher expression of MMP3 and MMP9 than hBMSC. A MMP inhibitor, GM6001, and the transfection of MMP3 or MMP9 siRNA oligonucleotides inhibited in vitro tube formation of hADSC. Transplantation of MMP3 or MMP9 siRNA oligonucleotieds-transfected hADSC showed lower blood flow recovery and higher tissue injury than control oligonucelotide-transfected cells. CONCLUSION This study showed that hADSC can be an ideal source for therapeutic angiogenesis in ischemic disease in terms of efficacy, accessibility and available tissue amounts.

Abstract
Following transplantation of green fluorescent protein (GFP)-labeled bone marrow (BM) into irradiated, wild-type Sprague-Dawley rats, propagated GFP(+) cells migrate to adipose tissue compartments. To determine the relationship between GFP(+) BM-derived cells and tissue-resident GFP(-) cells on the stem cell population of adipose tissue, we conducted detailed immunohistochemical analysis of chimeric whole fat compartments and subsequently isolated and characterized adipose-derived stem cells (ASCs) from GFP(+) BM chimeras. In immunohistochemistry, a large fraction of GFP(+) cells in adipose tissue were strongly positive for CD45 and smooth muscle actin and were evenly scattered around the adipocytes and blood vessels, whereas all CD45(+) cells within the blood vessels were GFP(+). A small fraction of GFP(+) cells with the mesenchymal marker CD90 also existed in the perivascular area. Flow cytometric and immunocytochemical analyses showed that cultured ASCs were CD45(-)/CD90(+)/CD29(+). There was a significant difference in both the cell number and phenotype of the GFP(+) ASCs in two different adipose compartments, the omental (abdominal) and the inguinal (subcutaneous) fat pads; a significantly higher number of GFP(-)/CD90(+) cells were isolated from the subcutaneous depot as compared with the abdominal depot. The in vitro adipogenic differentiation of the ASCs was achieved; however, all cells that had differentiated were GFP(-). Based on phenotypical analysis, GFP(+) cells in adipose tissue in this rat model appear to be of both hematopoietic and mesenchymal origin; however, infrequent isolation of GFP(+) ASCs and their lack of adipogenic differentiation suggest that the contribution of BM to ASC generation might be minor.

Crossregulation of beta-catenin/Tcf pathway by NF-kappaB is mediated by lzts2 in human adipose tissue-derived mesenchymal stem cells. BIOCHIMICA ET BIOPHYSICA ACTA-MOLECULAR CELL RESEARCH 2007; 1783:419-28. [PMID: 17950943 DOI: 10.1016/j.bbamcr.2007.08.005] [Citation(s) in RCA: 21] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/17/2007] [Revised: 08/22/2007] [Accepted: 08/27/2007] [Indexed: 01/01/2023]
Abstract
beta-catenin/Tcf and NF-kappaB signaling pathways play an important role in biological functions and crosstalk between these pathways has been reported. We found that the modulation of NF-kappaB activity showed a direct correlation with beta-catein/Tcf pathway in human adipose tissue (hASCs) and bone marrow (hBMSCs)-derived mesenchymal stem cells. Expression of lzts2, which inhibits nuclear translocation of beta-catenin and its transactivation activity, was regulated by NF-kappaB activity. Downregulation of lzts2 by RNA interference increased the nuclear translocation of beta-catenin and NF-kappaB activity in hASCs. NF-kappaB activation by the downregulation of lzts2 was accompanied by the increase of beta-TrCP1 expression and the decrease of IkappaB level. Downregulation of lzts2 increased the proliferation of hASCs and hBMSC, and blocked the NF-kappaB inhibitor-induced inhibitory effect on their proliferation and Tcf promoter activation. These findings provide the first evidence that the reciprocal crosstalk between beta-catenin/Tcf pathway and NF-kappaB signaling in hMSCs is mediated through the regulation of lzts2 expression.

Abstract
To investigate the biological character of human adipose-derived adult stem cells (hADAS cells) when cultured in vitro and the relationship between hADAS cell's replication activity and the donor's age factor, and to assess the stem cells as a new source for tissue engineering. hADAS cells are isolated from human adipose tissue of different age groups (from adolescents to olds: <20 years old, 21-40 years old, 41-60 years old and >61 years old groups). The protein markers (CD29, CD34, CD44, CD45, CD49d, HLA-DR, CD106) of hADAS cells were detected by flow cytometry (FCM) to identify the stem cell, and the cell cycle was examined for P20 hADAS cells to evaluate the safety of the subculture in vitro. The generative activity of hADAS cells in different age groups was also examined by MTT method. The formula "TD = t x log2/logNt - logN0" was used to get the time doubling (TD) of the cells. The results showed that the cells kept heredity stabilization by chromosome analysis for at least 20 passages. The TD of these cells increased progressively by ageing, and the TD of the <20 years old group was lower than that of the >61 years old group (statistical analysis of variance (ANOVA), P=0.002, P<0.05). These findings suggested that a higher level of hADAS cells replication activity was found in the younger donators, and they represent novel and valuable seed cells for studies of tissue engineering.

Abstract
During the last past years, the importance and the role of adipose tissues have been greatly expanded. After finding that adipose tissues are metabolically very active, the discovery of leptin moved the status of adipose tissue towards an endocrine tissue able to interact with all major organs via secretion of adipokines. Some years ago, the presence of adipocyte precursors, termed preadipocytes, has been described in all adipose tissue depots from various species of different age. More recently, the discovery that different phenotypes can be obtained from stroma cells of adipose tissue has largely emphazised the concept of adipose tissue plasticity. Therefore, raising great hope in regenerative medicine as adipose tissue can be easily harvested in adults it could represent an abundant source of therapeutic cells. Thus, adipose tissue plays the dual role of Mr Obese Hyde as a main actor of obesity and of Dr Regenerative Jekyll as a source of therapeutic cells. Adipose tissue has not yet revealed all its mysteries although one facet could not be well understood without the other one.

Abstract
Bone remodeling involves synthesis of organic matrix by osteoblasts and bone resorption by osteoclasts. A tight collaboration between these two cell types is essential to maintain a physiological bone homeostasis. Thus, osteoblasts control bone-resorbing activities and are also involved in osteoclast differentiation. Any disturbance between these effectors leads to the development of skeletal abnormalities and/or bone diseases. In this context, the determination of key genes involved in bone cell differentiation is a new challenge to treat any skeletal disorders. Different models are used to study the differentiation process of these cells, but all of them use pre-engaged progenitor cells, allowing us to study only the latest stages of the differentiation. Embryonic stem (ES) cells come from the inner mass of the blastocyst prior its implantation to the uterine wall. Because of their capacity to differentiate into all germ layers, and so into all tissues of the body, ES cells represent the best model by which to study earliest stages of bone cell differentiation. Osteoblasts are generated by two methods, one including the generation of embryoid body, the other not. Mineralizing cells are obtained after 2 weeks of culture and express all the specific osteoblastic markers (alkaline phosphatase, type I collagen, osteocalcin, and others). Osteoclasts are generated from a single-cell suspension of ES cells seeded on a feeder monolayer, and bone-resorbing cells expressing osteoclastic markers such as tartrate-resistant alkaline phosphatase or receptor activator of nuclear factor kappaB are obtained within 11 days. The aim of this review is to present recent discoveries and advances in the differentiation of both osteoblasts and osteoclasts from ES cells.

Abstract
Human mesenchymal stem cells (hMSCs), also referred to as multipotent stromal cells, are currently being applied in clinical trials for bone diseases, graft versus host disease, and myocardial infarction. However, the standard growth medium for hMSCs contains 10%-20% fetal calf serum (FCS), and FCS is strongly immunogenic in both rodents and humans. Previously, we reported that by a sensitive fluorescence-based assay, 7-30 mg of internalized FCS is associated with 10(8) hMSCs, a dosage that will probably be needed for most therapies. We also found that a brief culture in medium containing autologous 20% adult human serum (AHS) or autologous 10% AHS supplemented with growth factors (AHS(+)) reduced the contamination by more than 99.9%. We have now extensively characterized the culture conditions and shown that hMSC expansion is possible using heterologous 20% AHS or heterologous 10% AHS(+). The uptake of FCS is an active process that acts to concentrate contamination in the cells even under low serum conditions (2% FCS) but can be actively displaced by incubation of the cells in medium with AHS. Rat MSCs (rMSCs) can be expanded under similar conditions using supplemented heterologous adult rat serum (ARS(+)). After expansion in FCS, a further 8 days of culture with ARS(+) significantly improves the viability of the rMSCs in vivo after encapsulation in fibrin followed by subcutaneous implantation in rats. Our results have the potential to dramatically improve cellular and genetic therapies using hMSCs.

Abstract
As the promise of stem cell-based therapies begins to be realised, and efforts to bring advances to the clinic mount, the source of these cells is increasingly important. The morbidity associated with harvesting stem cells from solid organs and the invasive nature of bone marrow biopsies may limit their practicality for wider clinical applications. An emerging body of literature suggests that adipose tissue may provide an abundant, readily accessible source of cells with similar potential to that described of other adult stem cells. This review will address advances in the use of adipose stem cells in fields as divergent as soft tissue reconstruction and cerebral infarction recovery. Numerous challenges will also be discussed; however, rapidly accumulating advances suggest that adipose stem cells may be as effective as they are abundant.

Abstract
BACKGROUND/AIM It has been reported that adipose tissue contain progenitor cells with angiogenic potential and that therapy based on adipose tissue-derived progenitor cells administration may constitute a promising cell therapy in patients with ischemic disease. In this study we evaluated the effect of culture-expanded mesenchymal stem cells (MSC) derived from adipose tissue on neovascularization and blood flow in an animal model of limb ischemia in immunodeficient mice. METHODS MSC were cultured from human adipose tissue by collagenase digestion. Hindlimb ischemia was created by ligating the proximal femoral artery of male nude mice. Human adipose tissue stromal cells (hADSC) were transplanted one day or 7 days after ligation. RESULTS During culture expansion of hADSC CD34 expression was downregulated. The laser Doppler perfusion index was significantly higher in the CD34(-), Flk-1(-), CD31(-) ADSC-transplanted group than in the control group, even when cells were transplanted 7 days after hindlimb ischemia. Histological examination showed that hADSC transplantation recovered muscle injury and increased vascular density, compared with the control group. The effect of hADSC was correlated with the number of transplanted cells, but not with the ratio of CD34 expression. In vitro, hADSC can form vessel-like structure and express von Willibrand Factor. Conditioned media from hADSC increased proliferation and inhibited apoptotic cell death in of human aortic endothelial cells. CONCLUSION This study showed that hADSC can be an ideal source for therapeutic angiogenesis in ischemic disease.

Abstract
A body of evidence points to the existence of stem cell stores in adult tissues, in addition to the well-known hematopoietic stem cells from bone marrow. Many reports describe the ability of these multipotent cells (developmentally non-compromised with their organs of origin) to give rise to many different cell types in response to specific stimuli. This apparent plasticity provides new perspectives in tissue engineering and suggests the usefulness of these cells in future protocols of autologous transplantation, gene therapy, and tissue reconstitution in a number of pathological processes. Lipoaspirates and dermis represent accessible sources for obtaining such cells, with minimal discomfort to the donor, and might be promising candidates for cell therapy procedures once their features are experimentally accessed. The intention of the present work has been to gather reports on the phenotypic characteristics, profile, and plastic potential of these stem cells.

Abstract
Valproic acid (VPA) has been used as an anticonvulsant agent for the treatment of epilepsy, as well as a mood stabilizer for the treatment of bipolar disorder, for several decades. The mechanism of action for these effects remains to be elucidated and is most likely multifactorial. Recently, VPA has been reported to inhibit histone deacetylase (HDAC) and HDAC has been reported to play roles in differentiation of mammalian cells. In this study, the effects of HDAC inhibitors on differentiation and proliferation of human adipose tissue-derived stromal cells (hADSC) and bone marrow stromal cells (hBMSC) were determined. VPA increased osteogenic differentiation in a dose dependent manner. The pretreatment of VPA before induction of differentiation also showed stimulatory effects on osteogenic differentiation of hMSC. Trichostatin A (TSA), another HDAC inhibitor, also increased osteogenic differentiation, whereas valpromide (VPM), a structural analog of VPA which does not possess HDAC inhibitory effects, did not show any effect on osteogenic differentiation on hADSC. RT-PCR and Real-time PCR analysis revealed that VPA treatment increased osterix, osteopontin, BMP-2, and Runx2 expression. The addition of noggin inhibited VPA-induced potentiation of osteogenic differentiation. VPA inhibited proliferation of hADSC and hBMSC. Our results suggest that VPA enhance osteogenic differentiation, probably due to inhibition of HDAC, and could be useful for in vivo bone engineering using hMSC.
