Background/aim: This study aimed to investigate the safety and efficacy of deferoxamine (DFO) pretreated feline adipose tissue derived mesenchymal stem cells (fATMSCs) for the treatment of inflammatory disorders.
Materials And Methods: fATMSCs were isolated from feline adipose tissue and characterized using flow cytometry for surface marker expression and differentiation assays for adipogenic, osteogenic, and chondrogenic lineages. Different concentrations of DFO were used to evaluate its impact on fATMSC activity. The therapeutic potential of these preconditioned cells was validated using a mouse model of acute lung injury (ALI) by LPS injection. Comprehensive evaluations, including clinical, hematological, and radiological assessments, were conducted before and after intravenous injection of preconditioned cells in three feline subjects.
Results: 25 μM DFO pretreatment significantly up-regulated immunomodulatory genes (Tgfb, Hgf, and Tsg-6) in fATMSCs. In the mouse ALI model, DFO-pretreated fATMSCs exhibited enhanced anti-inflammatory effects, reducing inflammatory cytokines (Tnfa, Il1b, Il6). Clinical safety assessment in felines showed no immediate adverse effects, structural alterations, or tumorigenesis.
Conclusion: Utilizing a mouse model of acute lung injury, we demonstrated the potential of DFO-pretreated fATMSCs as a safe and effective therapeutic approach for inflammatory disorders.

Feline Idiopathic Cystitis (FIC), is a chronic lower urinary tract condition in cats analogous to PBS/IC in women, which presents significant treatment challenges due to its idiopathic nature. Recent advancements in regenerative medicine highlight the potential of Adipose Tissue-Derived Stem Cells (ADSCs), particularly through their secretome, which includes mediators, bioactive molecules, and extracellular vesicles (EVs). Notably, exosomes, a subset of EVs, facilitate cell-to-cell communication and, when derived from ADSCs, exhibit anti-inflammatory properties and contribute to tissue regeneration.

Background And Objective: Cardiac adipose tissue's (CAT) role in the pathogenesis of coronary artery disease (CAD) has become a hot topic in the literature in recent years. Cardiac computed tomography (CCT), a cutting-edge imaging modality, has become vital in quantifying and characterizing CAT. CAT is divided into paracardial adipose tissue (PAT), epicardial adipose tissue (EAT), and pericoronary adipose tissue (PCAT).

Like humans, cats have a strong relationship between decreasing insulin sensitivity and the development of diabetes with obesity. However, the underlying molecular mechanisms of impaired insulin secretion and signaling in cats remain largely unknown. A total of 54 client-owned nondiabetic lean ( = 15), overweight ( = 15), and diabetic ( = 24) cats were included in the study.

Fibrosarcomas (FSA) are malignant mesenchymal tumors characterized by low chemo- and radiosensitivity. Development of novel treatment strategies for human adult FSA is hindered by the low incidence and the absence of suitable clinical models. Interestingly, aggressive FSA occur more frequently in domestic cats, hence potentially representing a clinically amenable model to assess novel therapies such as targeted imaging or theranostics.
