Although great progress has been achieved in the treatment of corneal diseases, wound healing after severe corneal damage and immunosuppressive therapy after corneal transplantation remain prob-lematic. Mesenchymal stem cells(MSCs) derived from bone marrow or other adult tissues can differentiate into various types of mesenchymal lineages, such as osteocytes, adipocytes, and chondrocytes, both in vivo and in vitro. These cells can further differentiate into specific cell types under specific conditions. MSCs migrate to injury sites and promote wound healing by secreting anti-inflammatory and growth factors. In ad-dition, MSCs interact with innate and acquired immune cells and modulate the immune response through their powerful paracrine function. Over the last decade, MSCs have drawn considerable attention because of their beneficial properties and promising therapeutic prospective. Furthermore, MSCs have been applied to various studies related to wound healing, autoim-mune diseases, and organ transplantation. This review discusses the potential functions of MSCs in protecting corneal tissue and their possible mechanisms in corneal wound healing and corneal transplantation.展开更多

Dermal multipotent stem cells (dMSCs) have the abilities to promote survival and wound healing, but the potential function of dMSCs in wound healing, particularly in the initiation of wound repair, has not been fully understood. Methods: dMSCs and fibroblasts were isolated from neonatal rat dermis and were further purified and expanded. The cell cycles were determined with flow cytometry, while the radiosensitivity was measured by MTT assay. Rats were wounded with a 7-cm incision on the back skin and the wound fluids were collected by inserting two pieces of sterile polyvinyl alcohol sponge (1 cmin diameter and0.4 cmin thickness) subcutaneously into the dorsum of each rat through the midline of incision on the 1st, 2nd, 3rd and 4th day after incision. The effects of wound fluids on the proliferation of dMSCs and fibroblasts were measured with MTT assays. dMSC’s abilities of adhesion and attachment and its migration in response to wound fluids collected on the 1st day after incision were explored by measuring the percentage of floating cells and the cells migrated into wounding area in vitro, respectively. Results: The isolated dMSCs were morphologically homogenous and highly proliferative. Most of the cultured dMSCs were quiescent with few apoptotic cells. Compared with fibroblasts, dMSCs were more sensitive to radiation and more proliferative in response to wound fluids, especially to the wound fluids collected on the 1st day after wounding. Moreover, their abilities to attach, adhere and migrate were significantly enhanced with the early-phase wound fluids. Conclusions: As primitive stem cells, dMSCs are very responsive to wound fluids, which suggests dMSCs’ important role in wound healing, especially in initiating wound repair.展开更多

These injury currents generate electric fields(EF) that are 100-fold increased in intensity over that measured for uninjured tissue. In vitro and in vivo experiments have convincingly demonstrated that these electric fields(by their orientation, intensity and duration) can drive the migration, proliferation and differentiation of a host of cell types. These cellular behaviors are all necessary to facilitate regeneration as blocking these EFs at the site of injury inhibits tissue repair while enhancing their intensity promotes repair. Consequently, injury-induced currents, and the EFs they produce, represent a potent and crucial signal to drive tissue regeneration and repair. In this review, we will discuss how injury currents are generated, how cells detect these currents and what cellular responses they can induce. Additionally, we will describe the growing evidence suggesting that EFs play a key role in regulating the cellular response to injury and may be a therapeutic target for inducing regeneration in the mammalian CNS.展开更多

In this study, we have investigated the paracrine effect of differentiated and undifferentiated human ESC on alveolar epithelial cell (AEC) wound repair. hESC line, SHEF-2 cells were differentiated with Activin treatment for 22 days in an embryoid body (EB) suspension culture. Conditioned media (CM) which contain cell secretory factors were collected at different time points of differentiation. CM were then tested onin vitro?wound repair model with human type II AEC line, A549 cells (AEC). Our study demonstrated that CM originated from undifferentiated hESC significantly inhibited AEC wound repair when compared to the control. Whereas, CM originated from Activin-directed hESC differentiated cell population demonstrated a differential reparative effect on AEC wound repair model. CM obtained from Day-11 of differentiation significantly enhanced AEC wound repair in comparison to CM collected from pre- and post-Day-11 of differentiation. Day-11 CM enhanced AEC wound repair through significant stimulation of cell migration and cell proliferation. RT-PCR and immunocytochemistry confirmed that Day-11 CM was originated form a mixed population of endodermal/mesodermal differentiated hESC. This report suggests a putative paracrine-mediated epithelial injury healing mechanism by hESC secreted products, which is valuable in the development of novel stem cell-based therapeutic strategies.展开更多

文摘Studies on a variety of highly regenerative tissues, including the central nervous system(CNS) in non-mammalian vertebrates, have consistently demonstrated that tissue damage induces the formation of an ionic current at the site of injury. These injury currents generate electric fields(EF) that are 100-fold increased in intensity over that measured for uninjured tissue. In vitro and in vivo experiments have convincingly demonstrated that these electric fields(by their orientation, intensity and duration) can drive the migration, proliferation and differentiation of a host of cell types.

文摘Current treatments for full-thickness skin injuries are still unsatisfactory due to the lack of hierarchically stimulated dressings that can integrate the rapid hemostasis,inflammation regulation,and skin tissue remodeling into the one system instead of single-stage boosting.In this work,a multilayer-structured bioactive glass nanopowder(BGN@PTE)is developed by coating the poly-tannic acid andε-polylysine onto the BGN via facile layer-by-layer assembly as an integrative and multilevel dressing for the sequential management of wounds.In comparison to BGN and poly-tannic acid coated BGN,BGN@PTE exhibited the better hemostatic performance because of its multiple dependent approaches to induce the platelet adhesion/activation,red blood cells(RBCs)aggregation and fibrin network formation.Simultaneously,the bioactive ions from BGN facilitate the regulation of the inflammatory response while the poly-tannic acid and antibacterialε-polylysine prevent the wound infection,promoting the wound healing during the inflammatory stage.In addition,BGN@PTE can serve as a reactive oxygen species scavenger,alleviate the oxidation stress in wound injury,induce the cell migration and angiogenesis,and promote the proliferation stage of wound repair.Therefore,BGN@PTE demonstrated the significantly higher wound repair capacity than the commercial bioglass dressing Dermlin™.This multifunctional BGN@PTE is a potentially valuable dressing for full-thickness wound management and may be expected to extend to the other wounds therapy.

文摘The mucin 1(MUC1)gene emerged in mammals to afford protection of barrier epithelial tissues from the external environment.MUC1 encodes a transmembrane C-terminal(MUC1-C)subunit that is activated by loss of homeostasis and induces inflammatory,proliferative,and remodeling pathways associated with wound repair.As a consequence,chronic activation of MUC1-C promotes lineage plasticity,epigenetic reprogramming,and carcinogenesis.In driving cancer progression,MUC1-C is imported into the nucleus,where it induces NF-κB inflammatory signaling and the epithelial-mesenchymal transition(EMT).MUC1-C represses gene expression by activating(i)DNA methyltransferase 1(DNMT1)and DNMT3b,(ii)Polycomb Repressive Complex 1(PRC1)and PRC2,and(iii)the nucleosome remodeling and deacetylase(NuRD)complex.PRC1/2-mediated gene repression is counteracted by the SWI/SNF chromatin remodeling complexes.MUC1-C activates the SWI/SNF BAF and PBAF complexes in cancer stem cell(CSC)models with the induction of genome-wide differentially accessible regions and expressed genes.MUC1-C regulates chromatin accessibility of enhancer-like signatures in association with the induction of the Yamanaka pluripotency factors and recruitment of JUN and BAF,which promote increases in histone activation marks and opening of chromatin.These and other findings described in this review have uncovered a pivotal role for MUC1-C in integrating lineage plasticity and epigenetic reprogramming,which are transient in wound repair and sustained in promoting CSC progression.
