Mesenchymal stem cells due to the high proliferative potential, capacity of multilineage differentiation became a hope of regenerative medicine. However, the organism's response to the transplantation of MSCs is not fully elucidated. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the acute local tissue response to syngeneic MSCs administration into the muscle. Rat syngeneic MSCs were transplanted into the skeletal muscle and the tissue surrounding the injection site was collected after 24h. Analogous samples from untreated and PBS treated muscles served as controls. The analysis of genes expression using real-time PCR revealed significant up-regulation of proinflammatory cytokines: IL-1α, IL-1β, IL-6 in MSCs treated muscles in comparison to the PBS group. The evaluation of protein concentration (ELISA) in collected samples showed that injection of MSCs caused significant elevation of IL-1β. Immunofluorescent assessment of the tissue revealed infiltration of leukocytes and macrophages. Quantitative analysis of the samples immunostained for CD68 and CD43 antigens revealed that the number of phagocytes was significantly higher in MSC treated muscle when compared to the samples from PBS group. To conclude, the administration of mesenchymal stem cells into the muscle in syngeneic model induces the features of acute inflammation that affects cell engraftment.

Background: Regulatory T cells (Tregs) are essential for maintaining immune homeostasis and facilitating tissue regeneration by fostering an environment conducive to tissue repair. However, in damaged tissues, excessive inflammatory responses can overwhelm the immunomodulatory capacity of Tregs, compromising their functionality and potentially hindering effective regeneration. Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) play a key role in enhancing Treg function.

Dermatologists have been interested in recent advancements in regenerative therapy. Current research is actively investigating the possibility of placental tissue derivatives to decelerate the skin aging process, enhance skin regeneration, reduce scarring, and prevent hair loss. Amniotic membranes (AM) play a crucial role in regenerative medicine as they serve as a suitable means of transporting stem cells, growth hormones, cytokines, and other essential compounds.

Osteogenic differentiation of bone marrow stem cells (BMSCs) is essential for bone tissue regeneration and repair. However, this process is often hindered by an unstable differentiation influenced by local microenvironmental factors. While small extracellular vesicles (sEVs) derived from osteogenically induced adipose mesenchymal stem cells (ADSCs) reportedly can promote osteogenic differentiation of BMSCs, the underlying molecular mechanisms remain incompletely understood.

Aims: Diabetes mellitus (DM) induces increased inflammation of atherosclerotic plaques, resulting in elevated plaque instability. Mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) therapy was shown to decrease plaque size and increase stability in non-DM animal models. We now studied the effect of MSC therapy in a streptozotocin-induced hyperglycaemia mouse model using a clinically relevant dose of adipose tissue-derived MSCs (ASCs).
