Objective: The present study aims to demonstrate the protective effect of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (bmMSCs) on transplanted islets and its potential therapeutic role of severe acute pancreatitis (SAP) in rat model.
Materials And Methods: Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) were isolated from 6 male SD rats, and were identified. The Islets isolated from 20 SD rats were evenly and randomly divided into co-culture group, and basic culture group (control group), in which the islets were cultured in DMEM/F12 medium, so as to compare the insulin secretion and stimulation index. Severe AP was induced in SD rats by retrograde injection of sodium taurocholate. Ninety rats were randomly and evenly assigned into 5 groups: control group (healthy rats), SAP group, tail vein injection group, intraperitoneal injection group and combined injection (tail vein + intraperitoneal) group. Rats were sacrificed on day 1, 2, and 3. The pancreatic tissues and blood were collected. The plasma levels of IL-10, IL-1β, TNF-α, IL-6 were determined using ELISA. Pathologic changes of the pancreas were observed using HE staining, and the positioning of DAPI labeled bmMSCs in vivo were detected.
Results: Insulin secretion and the stimulation index of co-culture group were significantly higher than those of basic culture group (P < .05), after 7 and 14 days of culture. Inflammation, edema, hemorrhage and necrosis in each model of pancreatitis were reduced significantly in BMMSCs injection group as compared to SAP group (P < .05). Infused BMMSCs through combined injection indicated improved outcome than that of tail-vein injection or intraperitoneal injection alone.
Conclusion: Co-culture of BMMSCs with transplanted islets prolongs the survival time of islets and maintains in vitro activity. In the rat model of SAP, combined injection of BMMSCs through tail vein and intraperitoneal significantly suppresses the inflammatory reaction and alleviates pancreatic injury in rat SAP model.

Hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) generate blood and immune cells. Here, we present a protocol to differentiate human pluripotent stem cells (hPSCs) into hematopoietic progenitors that express the signature HSC transcription factors HLF, HOXA5, HOXA7, HOXA9, and HOXA10. hPSCs are dissociated, seeded, and then sequentially differentiated into posterior primitive streak, lateral mesoderm, artery endothelium, hemogenic endothelium, and hematopoietic progenitors through the sequential addition of defined, serum-free media.

The December 2024 US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approval of Mesoblast's Ryoncil (remestemcel-L-rknd)-allogeneic bone marrow mesenchymal stromal cell (MSC(M)) therapy-in pediatric acute steroid-refractory graft-versus-host-disease finally ended a long-lasting drought on approved MSC clinical products in the United States. While other jurisdictions-including Europe, Japan, India, and South Korea-have marketed autologous or allogeneic MSC products, the United States has lagged in its approval. The sponsor's significant efforts and investments, working closely with the FDA addressing concerns regarding clinical efficacy and consistent MSC potency through an iterative process that spanned several years, was rewarded with this landmark approval.

Background: Pathogenic or null mutations in WRN helicase is a cause of premature aging disease Werner syndrome (WS). WRN is known to protect somatic cells including adult stem cells from premature senescence. Loss of WRN in mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) not only drives the cells to premature senescence but also significantly impairs the function of the stem cells in tissue repair or regeneration.

Introduction: Periodontal diseases are prevalent among middle-aged and elderly individuals. There's still no satisfactory solution for tooth loss caused by periodontal diseases. Human periodontal ligament stem cells (hPDLSCs) is a distinctive subgroup of mesenchymal stem cells, which play a crucial role in periodontal supportive tissues, but their application value hasn't been fully explored yet.

Epiregulin plays a role in a range of biological activities including malignancies. This study aims to investigate the potential contribution of epiregulin to bone cell differentiation and bone homeostasis. The data showed that epiregulin expression was upregulated during osteogenesis but downregulated during adipogenesis.
