Novel non-angiogenic role for mesenchymal stem cell-derived vascular endothelial growth factor on keratinocytes during wound healing.
Cytokine & Growth Factor Reviews 2018 November 16
With chronic wounds remaining a substantial healthcare issue, new therapies are sought to improve patient outcomes. Various studies have explored the benefits of promoting angiogenesis in wounds by targeting proangiogenic factors such as Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor (VEGF) family members to improve wound healing. Along similar lines, Mesenchymal Stem Cell (MSC) secretions, usually containing VEGF, have been used to improve angiogenesis in wound healing via a paracrine mechanism. Recent evidence for keratinocyte VEGF receptor expression, as well as proliferative and chemotactic responses by keratinocytes to exogenous VEGFA in vitro implies distinct non-angiogenic actions for VEGF during wound healing. In this review, we discuss the expression of VEGF family members and their receptors in keratinocytes in relation to the potential for wound healing treatments. We also explore recent findings of MSC secreted paracrine wound healing activity on keratinocytes. We report here the concept of keratinocyte wound healing responses driven by MSC-derived VEGF that is supported in the literature, providing a new mechanism for cell-free therapy of chronic wounds.
