Changes Induced by Inflammatory-Activated Immune Cell Microenvironment in the Paracrine Profile of MSC

摘要

We studied the influence of activated innate and adaptive immune cells on the production of growth factors by human adipose tissue multipotent mesenchymal stromal cells (MSC). MSC showed immunosuppressive properties in vitro: decreased activation and proliferation of stimulated immune cells. T-cell interaction with MSC resulted with increased secretion of EGF, PDGF-AB/BB, FGF-2, and VEGF growth factors. Co-culturing with natural killer cells also stimulated TGF alpha production. The intensity of the effect varied depending on the type of immune cells. Natural killer caused a more significant increase in PDGF-AB/BB and FGF-2 secretion, while VEGF secretion increased stronger after co-culturing with T cells. The obtained data indicate the possibility of increasing reparative potential of MSC under the influence of inflammatory microenvironment.
