Abstract:
Introduction: Radiation therapy (RT) is the standard of care for central nervous system (CNS) cancers. Despite the success of RT in reducing tumor mass, RT-induced side effects such as ECM remodeling, vasculopathies and neuroinflammation are well documented that cause reduced neurogenecity and premature aging like complications during post-cancer survivorship. Since mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) are multipotent adult stem cells that support tissue integrity, homeostasis and repair through factors they release, we here investigated the potential of iPSC-derived MSC (iMSC)-secretome in immunomodulation and vasculature repair in response to radiation-induced alterations utilizing models of human monocytic and microglial cells (THP1, HMC-3) and human brain endothelial cells (HCMEC/D3). Approaches: (a) Investigate the impact of iMSC secretome on vasculature damage caused by radiation-induced cell injury and RT-induced inflammation, by evaluating its effects on (i) endothelial cell survival and morphogenesis (ii) activation of peripheral monocytes stimulated by X-ray radiation therapy (RT), RT-induced microglial injury, and vasculature injury mediated inflammation (b) Identify factors and pathways that may contribute to the observed phenotype. Results: Decline in intact angiogenic tube formation and less compact spheroid formation was observed for HCMEC/D3 cells after irradiation at doses (Gy): 2.5, 5, 10, 15, and 30, with maximal effect observed at 30Gy. Evaluating the effects of iMSC secretome on radiation induced endothelial cell damage and inflammation revealed increased cell viability with reduced apoptosis, higher cell adherance and better spheroid compactness in 5Gy irradiated HCMEC/D3 cells after iMSC-conditioned media (iMSC-CM) treatment. Reduction in NFκB promoter activity was observed in irradiated THP1- NFκB-Luc2 reporter line, with reduced levels of TNF-α release per unit cell viability in THP1 after iMSC-CM treatment. NFκB promoter activity was also reduced in effect of iMSC treatment in THP1- NFκB-Luc2 reporter cells subjected to irradiated vasculature cells (D3), with or without iMSC coculture and, irradiated microglial cells (HMC3), mimicking vasculature injury, microglial injury, and immune cell crosstalk, respectively. iMSC secretome facilitated a more networked tube formation in HCMEC/D3 cells in coculture of D3+iMSC cells that was longer retained. Cytokine arrays revealed iMSC-CM to have proangiogenic, immunomodulatory (immune suppressive) and chemotactic factors: MCP1, ANG (angiogenin), IL6, IL8, GRO, GROα, RANTES, and SDF1. Our initial pathway analysis using human phospho-proteome profiling showed iMSC secretome elevates levels of beta-catenin, and PRAS40 (AKT/mTOR modulator) and lowers level of pRSK1/2/3 in HCMEC/D3. Conclusions: Taken together, we demonstrated that iMSC-secretome complements the proangiogenic and immunosuppressive effects of iMSC during radiation induced injury. Further studies are required to validate the in vivo potential of iMSC-secretome as safe biological therapy in long-term cancer survivors. Citation Format: Kshama Gupta, Ralph B.
