Abstract
Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a pervasive global health issue with substantial morbidity and mortality, often resulting in secondary complications, including diabetic wounds (DWs). These wounds, arising from hyperglycemia, diabetic neuropathy, anemia, and ischemia, afflict approximately 15% of diabetic patients, with a considerable 25% at risk of lower limb amputations. The conventional approaches for chronic and diabetic wounds management involves utilizing various therapeutic substances and techniques, encompassing growth factors, skin substitutes and wound dressings. In parallel, emerging cell therapy approaches, notably involving adipose tissue-derived mesenchymal stem cells (ADMSCs), have demonstrated significant promise in addressing diabetes mellitus and its complications. ADMSCs play a pivotal role in wound repair, and their derived exosomes have garnered attention for their therapeutic potential. This review aimed to unravel the potential mechanisms and provide an updated overview of the role of ADMSCs and their exosomes in diabetes mellitus and its associated complications, with a specific focus on wound healing.

Early Osteogenic-Induced Adipose-Derived Stem Cells and Canine Bone Regeneration Potential Analyzed Using Biodegradable Scaffolds. Bioengineering (Basel) 2023; 10:1311.

Abstract
The complex process of bone regeneration is influenced by factors such as inflammatory responses, tissue interactions, and progenitor cells. Currently, multiple traumas can interfere with fracture healing, causing the prolonging or failure of healing. In these cases, bone grafting is the most effective treatment. However, there are several drawbacks, such as morbidity at the donor site and availability of suitable materials. Advantages have been provided in this field by a variety of stem cell types. Adipose-derived stem cells (ASCs) show promise. In the radiological examination of this study, it was confirmed that the C/S group showed faster regeneration than the other groups, and Micro-CT also showed that the degree of bone formation in the defect area was highest in the C/S group. Compared to the control group, the change in cortical bone area in the defect area decreased in the sham group (0.874), while it slightly increased in the C/S group (1.027). An increase in relative vascularity indicates a decrease in overall bone density, but a weak depression filled with fibrous tissue was observed outside the compact bone. It was confirmed that newly formed cortical bone showed a slight difference in bone density compared to surrounding normal bone tissue due to increased distribution of cortical bone. In this study, we investigated the effect of bone regeneration by ADMSCs measured by radiation and pathological effects. These data can ultimately be applied to humans with important clinical applications in various bone diseases, regenerative, and early stages of formative differentiation.

Abstract
Diabetes mellitus is a chronic metabolic disease, characterized by high blood sugar levels; it affects more than 500 million individuals worldwide. Type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) is results from insufficient insulin secretion by islets; its treatment requires lifelong use of insulin injections, which leads to a large economic burden on patients. Islet transplantation may be a promising effective treatment for T1DM. Clinically, this process currently involves directly infusing islet cells into the hepatic portal vein; however, transplantation at this site often elicits immediate blood-mediated inflammatory and acute immune responses. Subcutaneous islet transplantation is an attractive alternative to islet transplantation because it is simpler, demonstrates lower surgical complication risks, and enables graft monitoring and removal. In this article, we review the current methods of subcutaneous device-free islet transplantation. Recent subcutaneous islet transplantation techniques with high success rate have involved the use of bioengineering technology and biomaterial cotransplantation-including cell and cell growth factor co-transplantation and hydrogel- or simulated extracellular matrix-wrapped subcutaneous co-transplantation. In general, current subcutaneous device-free islet transplantation modalities can simplify the surgical process and improve the posttransplantation graft survival rate, thus aiding effective T1DM management.

Abstract
Methods to induce islet β-cells from induced pluripotent stem cells or embryonic stem cells have been established. However, islet β-cells are susceptible to apoptosis under hypoxic conditions, so the technique used to transplant β-cells must maintain the viability of cells in vivo. This study describes the development of a tricultured cell sheet, which was made by coculturing islet β-cells, vascular endothelial cells, and mesenchymal stem cells for 1 day. The islet β-cells in the tricultured cell sheet self-organized into islet-like structures surrounded by a dense vascular network in vitro. Triple-layered tricultured cell sheets engrafted well after transplantation in vivo and developed into insulin-secreting tissue with abundant blood vessels and a high density of islet β-cells. We anticipate that the tricultured cell sheet could be used as an in vitro pseudo-islet model for pharmaceutical testing and may have potential for development into transplantable grafts for use in regenerative medicine.

Abstract
Abstract
Purpose of Review
Here, we review the use of cell sheet technology using different cell types and its potential for restoring the extracellular matrix microenvironment, perfusion, and immunomodulatory action on islets and beta cells.
Recent Findings
Cell sheets can be produced with different fabrication techniques ranging from the widely used temperature responsive system to the magnetic system. A variety of cells have been used to produce cell sheets including skin fibroblasts, smooth muscle cells, human umbilical vein endothelial cells, and mesenchymal stem cells.
Summary
CST would allow to recreate the ECM of islets which would provide cues to support islet survival and improvement of islet function. Depending on the used cell type, different additional supporting properties like immunoprotection or cues for better revascularization could be provided. Furthermore, CST offers the possibility to use other implantation sites than inside the liver. Further research should focus on cell sheet thickness and size to generate a potential translational therapy.

Abstract
Background Human adipose-derived stem cells (hADSCs) have been demonstrated to be a promising autologous stem cell source for treating various neuronal diseases. Our study indicated that hADSCs could be induced into neuron-like cells in a stepwise manner that are characterized by the positive expression of MAP2, SYNAPSIN 1/2, NF-200, and vGLUT and electrophysiological activity. We first primed hADSCs into neuron-like cells (hADSC-NCs) and then intracerebrally transplanted them into MCAO reperfusion mice to further explore their in vivo survival, migration, integration, fate commitment and involvement in neural circuit rebuilding. Results The hADSC-NCs survived well and transformed into MAP2-positive, Iba1- or GFAP-negative cells in vivo while maintaining some proliferative ability, indicated by positive Ki67 staining after 4 weeks. hADSC-NCs could migrate to multiple brain regions, including the cortex, hippocampus, striatum, and hypothalamus, and further differentiate into mature neurons, as confirmed by action potential elicitation and postsynaptic currents. With the aid of a cell suicide system, hADSC-NCs were proven to have functionally integrated into the hippocampal memory circuit, where they contributed to spatial learning and memory rescue, as indicated by LTP improvement and subsequent GCV-induced relapse. In addition to infarction size shrinkage and movement improvement, MCAO-reperfused mice showed bidirectional immune modulation, including inhibition of the local proinflammatory factors IL-1α, IL-1β, IL-2, MIP-1β and promotion proinflammatory IP-10, MCP-1, and enhancement of the anti-inflammatory factors IL-15. Conclusion Overall, hADSC-NCs used as an intermediate autologous cell source for treating stroke can rebuild hippocampus neuronal circuits through cell replacement.

Bioinks Enriched with ECM Components Obtained by Supercritical Extraction. Biomolecules 2022; 12:biom12030394.

Abstract
Extracellular matrix (ECM)-based bioinks have been steadily gaining interest in the field of bioprinting to develop biologically relevant and functional tissue constructs. Herein, we propose the use of supercritical carbon dioxide (scCO2) technology to extract the ECM components of cell-sheets that have shown promising results in creating accurate 3D microenvironments replicating the cell’s own ECM, to be used in the preparation of bioinks. The ECM extraction protocol best fitted for cell sheets was defined by considering efficient DNA removal with a minor effect on the ECM. Cell sheets of human dermal fibroblasts (hDFbs) and adipose stem cells (hASCs) were processed using a customised supercritical system by varying the pressure of the reactor, presence, exposure time, and type of co-solvent. A quantification of the amount of DNA, protein, and sulfated glycosaminoglycans (sGAGs) was carried out to determine the efficiency of the extraction in relation to standard decellularization methodologies. The bioinks containing the extracted ECM were fabricated by combining them with alginate as a support polymer. The influence of the alginate (1%, 2% w/vol) and ECM (0.5% and 1.5% w/vol) amounts on the printability of the blends was addressed by analysing the rheological behaviour of the suspensions. Finally, 3D printed constructs were fabricated using an in-house built extrusion-based bioprinter, and the impact of the extrusion process on cell viability was assessed. The optimised scCO2 protocol allowed efficient removal of DNA while preserving a higher number of proteins and sGAGs than the standard methodologies. The characterization of extract’s composition also revealed that the ECM produced by hDFbs (fECM) and hASCs (aECM) is distinctively affected by the extraction protocols. Furthermore, rheological analysis indicated an increase in viscosity with increasing ECM composition, an effect even more prominent in samples containing aECM. 3D printing of alginate/ECM constructs demonstrated that cell viability was only marginally affected by the extrusion process, and this effect was also dependent on the ECM source. Overall, this work highlights the benefits of supercritical fluid-based methods for ECM extraction and strengthens the relevance of ECM-derived bioinks in the development of printed tissue-like constructs.

Abstract
Neonatal and juvenile porcine islet cell clusters (ICC) present an unlimited source for islet xenotransplantation to treat type 1 diabetes patients. We isolated ICC from pancreata of 14 days old juvenile piglets and characterized their maturation by immunofluorescence and insulin secretion assays. Multipotent mesenchymal stromal cells derived from exocrine tissue of same pancreata (pMSC) were characterized for their differentiation potential and ability to sustain ICC insulin secretion in vitro and in vivo. Isolation of ICC resulted in 142 ± 50 × 103 IEQ per pancreas. Immunofluorescence staining revealed increasing presence of insulin-positive beta cells between day 9 and 21 in culture and insulin content per 500IEC of ICC increased progressively over time from 1178.4 ± 450 µg/L to 4479.7 ± 1954.2 µg/L from day 7 to 14, P < .001. Highest glucose-induced insulin secretion by ICC was obtained at day 7 of culture and reached a fold increase of 2.9 ± 0.4 compared to basal. Expansion of adherent cells from the pig exocrine tissue resulted in a homogenous CD90+ , CD34- , and CD45- fibroblast-like cell population and differentiation into adipocytes and chondrocytes demonstrated their multipotency. Insulin release from ICC was increased in the presence of pMSC and dependent on cell-cell contact (glucose-induced fold increase: ICC alone: 1.6 ± 0.2; ICC + pMSC + contact: 3.2 ± 0.5, P = .0057; ICC + pMSC no-contact: 1.9 ± 0.3; theophylline stimulation: alone: 5.4 ± 0.7; pMSC + contact: 8.4 ± 0.9, P = .013; pMSC no-contact: 5.2 ± 0.7). After transplantation of encapsulated ICC using Ca2+ -alginate (alg) microcapsules into streptozotocin-induced diabetic and immunocompetent mice, transient normalization of glycemia was obtained up to day 7 post-transplant, whereas ICC co-encapsulated with pMSC did not improve glycemia and showed increased pericapsular fibrosis. We conclude that pMSC derived from juvenile porcine exocrine pancreas improves insulin secretion of ICC by direct cell-cell contact. For transplantation purposes, the use of pMSC to support beta-cell function will depend on the development of new anti-fibrotic polymers and/or on genetically modified pigs with lower immunogenicity.

Subcutaneous transplantation of engineered islet/adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cell sheets in diabetic pigs with total pancreatectomy. Regen Ther 2021; 16:42-52. [PMID: 33521172 PMCID: PMC7810917 DOI: 10.1016/j.reth.2020.12.005] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/08/2020] [Revised: 12/11/2020] [Accepted: 12/25/2020] [Indexed: 12/24/2022] Open
Abstract
Introduction Intraportal islet transplantation is a promising therapeutic approach for patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM). However, despite being minimally invasive, the method has some limitations, such as short-term graft loss, portal venous thrombosis, and difficulty in collecting adequate amounts of islets. Subcutaneous islet transplantation on adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cell (ADSC) sheets has been suggested to overcome these limitations, and in this study, we have examined its feasibility in T1DM pigs. Methods Inguinal subcutaneous fat was harvested from young pigs and then isolated and cultured adequate ADSCs to prepare sheets. Islets were isolated from the pancreases of mature pigs and seeded on the ADSC sheets. T1DM pigs were generated by total pancreatectomy, and ADSC sheets with transplanted islets were administered subcutaneously to the waist (n = 2). The effects of the islets on the ADSC sheets and on blood glucose levels were evaluated. Insulin secretion was measured by insulin stimulation index. Results Islet viability was higher on ADSCs compared to islets alone (91.8 ± 4.3 vs. 81.7 ± 4.1%). The insulin stimulation index revealed higher glucose sensitivity of islets on ADSC sheets compared to islets alone (2.8 ± 2.0 vs. 0.8 ± 0.3). After transplantation, the blood glucose levels of two pigs were within the normal range, and sensitive insulin secretion was confirmed by intravenous glucose tolerance tests. After graftectomy, decreased insulin secretion and hyperglycemia were observed. Conclusions Subcutaneous islet transplantation using ADSC sheets can regulate the blood glucose levels of T1DM pigs. The adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cell sheet is useful to protect the islets. Subcutaneous islet transplantation on sheet normalized blood glucose in diabetic pig. Subcutaneous islet transplantation on sheet can be a useful tool.

Abstract
Liver transplantation, the only proven treatment for end-stage liver disease and acute liver failure, is hampered by the scarcity of donors. Regenerative medicine provides an alternative therapeutic approach. Tremendous efforts dedicated to liver regenerative medicine include the delivery of transplantable cells, microtissues, and bioengineered whole livers via tissue engineering and the maintenance of partial liver function via extracorporeal support. This brief review summarizes the current status of regenerative medicine for the hepatobiliary system. For liver regenerative medicine, the focus is on strategies for expansion of transplantable hepatocytes, generation of hepatocyte-like cells, and therapeutic potential of engineered tissues in liver disease models. For biliary regenerative medicine, the discussion concentrates on the methods for generation of cholangiocyte-like cells and strategies in the treatment of biliary disease. Significant advances have been made in large-scale and long-term expansion of liver cells. The development of tissue engineering and stem cell induction technology holds great promise for the future treatment of hepatobiliary diseases. The application of regenerative medicine in liver still lacks extensive animal experiments. Therefore, a large number of preclinical studies are necessary to provide sufficient evidence for their therapeutic effectiveness. Much remains to be done for the treatment of hepatobiliary diseases with regenerative medicine.

Evaluation of Multi-Layered Pancreatic Islets and Adipose-Derived Stem Cell Sheets Transplanted on Various Sites for Diabetes Treatment. Cells 2020; 9:cells9091999.

Abstract
Islet cell transplantation is considered an ideal treatment for insulin-deficient diabetes, but implantation sites are limited and show low graft survival. Cell sheet technology and adipose-derived stem cells (ADSCs) can be useful tools for improving islet cell transplantation outcomes since both can increase implantation efficacy and graft survival. Herein, the optimal transplantation site in diabetic mice was investigated using islets and stem cell sheets. We constructed multi-layered cell sheets using rat/human islets and human ADSCs. Cell sheets were fabricated using temperature-responsive culture dishes. Islet/ADSC sheet (AI sheet) group showed higher viability and glucose-stimulated insulin secretion than islet-only group. Compared to islet transplantation alone, subcutaneous AI sheet transplantation showed better blood glucose control and CD31+ vascular traits. Because of the adhesive properties of cell sheets, AI sheets were easily applied on liver and peritoneal surfaces. Liver or peritoneal surface grafts showed better glucose control, weight gain, and intraperitoneal glucose tolerance test (IPGTT) profiles than subcutaneous site grafts using both rat and human islets. Stem cell sheets increased the therapeutic efficacy of islets in vivo because mesenchymal stem cells enhance islet function and induce neovascularization around transplanted islets. The liver and peritoneal surface can be used more effectively than the subcutaneous site in future clinical applications.

Abstract
Type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) is caused by the autoimmune targeting of pancreatic β-cells, and, in the advanced stage, severe hypoinsulinemia due to islet destruction. In patients with T1DM, continuous exogenous insulin therapy cannot be avoided. However, an insufficient dose of insulin easily induces extreme hyperglycemia or diabetic ketoacidosis, and intensive insulin therapy may cause hypoglycemic symptoms including hypoglycemic shock. While these insulin therapies are efficacious in most patients, some additional therapies are warranted to support the control of blood glucose levels and reduce the risk of hypoglycemia in patients who respond poorly despite receiving appropriate treatment. There has been a recent gain in the popularity of cellular therapies using mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) in various clinical fields, owing to their multipotentiality, capacity for self-renewal, and regenerative and immunomodulatory potential. In particular, adipose tissue-derived MSCs (ADMSCs) have become a focus in the clinical setting due to the abundance and easy isolation of these cells. In this review, we outline the possible therapeutic benefits of ADMSC for the treatment of T1DM.

Improved islet recovery and efficacy through co-culture and co-transplantation of islets with human adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells. PLoS One 2018; 13:e0206449.

Abstract
Islet transplantation is an established clinical procedure for select patients with type 1 diabetes and severe hypoglycemia to stabilize glycemic control. Post-transplant, substantial beta cell mass is lost, necessitating multiple donors to maintain euglycemia. A potential strategy to augment islet engraftment is the co-transplantation of islets with multipotent mesenchymal stem cells to capitalize upon their pro-angiogenic and anti-inflammatory properties. Herein, we examine the in vitro and in vivo effect of co-culturing murine islets with human adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells (Ad-MSCs). Islets co-cultured with Ad-MSCs for 48 hours had decreased cell death, superior viability as measured by membrane integrity, improved glucose stimulated insulin secretion and reduced apoptosis compared to control islets. These observations were recapitulated with human islets, albeit tested in a limited capacity. Recipients of marginal mouse islet mass grafts, co-transplanted with Ad-MSCs without a co-culture period, did not reverse to normoglycemia as efficiently as islets alone. However, utilizing a 48-hour co-culture period, marginal mouse islets grafts with Ad-MSCs achieved a superior percent euglycemia rate when compared to islets cultured and transplanted alone. A co-culture period of human islets with human Ad-MSCs may have a clinical benefit improving engraftment outcomes.
