Popis: Aim: Identification of mechanistic pathways for selected renal cell (SRC) therapeutic bioactivity in rodent models of chronic kidney disease. Materials & methods: In vivo and in vitro functional bioassays applied to investigate regenerative outcomes associated with delivery of SRC to diseased rodent kidney. Results: In vivo, SRC reduces chronic infiltration by monocytes/macrophages. SRC attenuates NF-κB and PAI-1 responses while simultaneously promoting host tubular cell expansion through trophic cues. In vitro, SRC-derived conditioned media attenuates TNF-α-induced NF-κB response, TGF-β-mediated PAI-1 response and increases expression of transcripts associated with cell cycle regulation. Observed bioactive responses were from vesicle and nonvesicle-associated factors, including specific miRNAs. Conclusion: We identify a paracrine mechanism for SRC immunomodulatory and trophic cues on host renal tissues, catalyzing long-term functional benefits in vivo.
