Popis: Abstract Background Cell therapy has been evaluated pre-clinically and clinically as a means to improve wound vascularization and healing. While translation of this approach to clinical practice ideally requires the availability of clinical grade xenobiotic-free cell preparations, studies proving the pre-clinical efficacy of the latter are mostly lacking. Here, the potential of xenobiotic-free human multipotent adult progenitor cell (XF-hMAPC®) preparations to promote vascularization was evaluated. Methods The potential of XF-hMAPC cells to support blood vessel formation was first scored in an in vivo Matrigel assay in mice. Next, a dose-response study was performed with XF-hMAPC cells in which they were tested for their ability to support vascularization and (epi) dermal healing in a physiologically relevant splinted wound mouse model. Results XF-hMAPC cells supported blood vessel formation in Matrigel by promoting the formation of mature (smooth muscle cell-coated) vessels. Furthermore, XF-hMAPC cells dose-dependently improved wound vascularization associated with increasing wound closure and re-epithelialization, granulation tissue formation, and dermal collagen organization. Conclusions Here, we demonstrated that the administration of clinical-grade XF-hMAPC cells in mice represents an effective approach for improving wound vascularization and healing that is readily applicable for translation in humans.
