    Abstract: Even though the regenerative potential of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) has been extensively studied, there is a debate regarding their minimal therapeutic properties. Bone morphogenetic proteins (BMP) are involved in cartilage metabolism, chondrogenesis, and bone healing. In this study, we aimed to analyze the role of genome-edited BMP-2 overexpressing amniotic mesenchymal stem cells (AMMs) in a mouse model of collagen-induced arthritis (CIA). The BMP-2 gene was synthesized and inserted into AMMs using transcription activator-like effector nucleases (TALENs), and BMP-2-overexpressing AMMs (AMM/B) were sorted and characterized using quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR). The co-culture of AMM/B with tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α-treated synovial fibroblasts significantly decreased the levels of interleukin (IL)-34. The therapeutic properties of AMM/B were evaluated using the CIA mouse model. The injection of AMM/B attenuated CIA progression and inhibited T helper (Th)17 cell activation in CIA mice. In addition, the AMM/B injection increased proteoglycan expression in cartilage and decreased the infiltration of inflammatory cells and factors, including IL-1β, TNF-α, cyclooxygenase (COX)-2, and Nuclear factor kappa B (NF-kB) in the joint tissues. Therefore, editing the BMP-2 genome in MSCs might be an alternative strategy to enhance their therapeutic potential for treating cartilage degeneration in arthritic joints.

    Synergistic Therapeutic Potential of Dual 3D Mesenchymal Stem Cell Therapy in an Ischemic Hind Limb Mouse Model

    Abstract: Three-dimensional (3D) culture systems have been widely used to promote the viability and metabolic activity of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs). The aim of this study was to explore the synergistic benefits of using dual 3D MSC culture systems to promote vascular regeneration and enhance therapeutic potential. We used various experimental assays, including dual 3D cultures of human adipose MSCs (hASCs), quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR), in vitro cell migration, Matrigel tube network formation, Matrigel plug assay, therapeutic assays using an ischemic hind limb mouse model, and immunohistochemical analysis. Our qRT-PCR results revealed that fibroblast growth factor 2 (FGF-2), granulocyte chemotactic protein-2 (GCP-2), and vascular endothelial growth factor-A (VEGF-A) were highly upregulated in conventional 3D-cultured hASCs (ASC-3D) than in two-dimensional (2D)-cultured hASCs. Hepatocyte growth factor (HGF), insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1), and stromal-cell-derived factor-1 (SDF-1) showed higher expression levels in cytokine-cocktail-based, 3D-cultured hASCs (ASC-3Dc). A conditioned medium (CM) mixture of dual 3D ASCs (D-3D; ASC-3D + ASC-3Dc) resulted in higher migration and Matrigel tube formation than the CM of single 3D ASCs (S-3D; ASC-3D). Matrigel plugs containing D-3D contained more red blood cells than those containing S-3D. D-3D transplantation into ischemic mouse hind limbs prevented limb loss and augmented blood perfusion when compared to S-3D transplantation. Transplanted D-3D also revealed a high capillary density and angiogenic cytokine levels and transdifferentiated into endothelial-like cells in the hind limb muscle. These findings highlight the benefits of using the dual 3D culture system to optimize stem-cell-based therapeutic strategies, thereby advancing the therapeutic strategy for ischemic vascular disease and tissue regeneration.
