In experiments on male Wistar-Kyoto rats we studied the distribution of mesenchymal stem cells in intact body and in the presence of a focus of acute tissue inflammation. In healthy animals mesenchymal stem cells were transplanted intravenously. In the second case we used various routes of transplantation of mesenchymal stem cells: intravenous, into tissue adjacent to the inflammation focus, and into intact lobe of the damaged organ (prostate gland). Three weeks after transplantation, mesenchymal stem cells labeled with a fluorescent dye were detected in the bone marrow and intestine of intact animals. In case of inflammation focus, mesenchymal stem cells after transplantation migrated into the bone marrow, intestine, and prostate gland. After injection into the adjacent zone, these cells formed a compact agglomerate at the site of injection. After transplantation into the intact lobe of the prostate gland the cells migrated towards the inflammation focus. Thus, transplantation of mesenchymal stem cells into the venous blood is less traumatic and led to more uniform distribution of cells in the damaged tissue.

Background: Patient-derived lung cancer organoids (PD-LCOs) demonstrate exceptional potential in preclinical testing and serve as a promising model for the multimodal management of lung cancer. However, certain lung cancer cells derived from patients exhibit limited capacity to generate organoids due to inter-tumor or intra-tumor variability. To overcome this limitation, we have created an in vitro system that employs mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) or fibroblasts to serve as a supportive scaffold for lung cancer cells that do not form organoids.

Aberrant signaling across the EGFR-PTEN-AKT-mTOR pathways have been shown as common drivers of glioblastoma. Revealing the inter and intra-cellular heterogeneity within glioma stem cell populations in relations to signaling patterns through these pathways may be key to precision diagnostic and therapeutic targeting of these cells.

Objectives: Islet transplantation is one of the most promising curative methods for type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM), but early hypoxic death of the graft post-transplantation impedes successful treatment. To improve the efficacy of islet transplantation and enhance islet cell resistance to hypoxia, reducing hypoxic injury before revascularization is crucial. Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are known to regulate immune responses and protect against hypoxic damage through paracrine mechanisms.

Osteoporosis (OP) is a common disease in the elderly, characterized by decreased bone strength, reduced bone density, and increased fracture risk. There are two clinical types of osteoporosis: primary osteoporosis and secondary osteoporosis. The most common form is postmenopausal osteoporosis, which is caused by decreased estrogen production after menopause.

Mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) isolated from tissues such as bone marrow, cord, cord blood, etc., are frequently used as feeder layers to expand hematopoietic stem/ progenitor cells (HSCs/HSPCs) in vitro. They are also co-infused with the HSCs to improve the efficacy of transplantation.
