Popis: | Background/aim The transcription factors Oct4 and Sox2 enhance the proliferation and pluripotency of human adipose tissue-derived mesenchymal stem cells (hAT-MSCs); however, the anti-inflammatory effects of Oct4- and Sox2-overexpressing hAT-MSCs (Oct4/Sox2-hAT-MSCs) are unclear. Here, we evaluated the anti-inflammatory effects of Oct4/Sox2-hAT-MSCs in vitro and in vivo. Materials and methods Supernatants from green-fluorescent protein (GFP)- and Oct4/Sox2-hAT-MSCs were used to treat lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-stimulated RAW264.7 cells and inflammatory cytokine expression was determined. In LPS-induced mice, GFP- and Oct4/Sox2-hAT-MSCs were injected intraperitoneally and survival rates, as well as sickness scores of mice, were monitored. Results Decreased expression of pro-inflammatory cytokines was observed in Oct4/Sox2-hAT-MSC supernatant-exposed RAW264.7 cells compared to that in GFP-hAT-MSC supernatant-exposed RAW264.7 cells. The sickness score was reduced to 34.9% and the survival rate was increased by 11.1% in Oct4/Sox2-hAT-MSC-injected mice compared to that in GFP-hAT-MSC-injected mice. Conclusion Our findings provide important insights into the development of therapies utilizing Oct4/Sox2-hAT-MSCs in inflammatory diseases. |
