Impact of Diabetes Mellitus on Human Mesenchymal Stromal Cell Biology and Functionality: Implications for Autologous Transplantation.
Stem cell reviews and reports. 2019 April
Multipotent mesenchymal stem/stromal cells (MSCs) have regenerative and immunomodulatory properties to restore and repair injured tissues, making them attractive candidates for cell-based therapies. Experimental and clinical evidence has demonstrated the effectiveness of MSC transplantation in managing diabetes mellitus (DM). Autologous MSCs are assumed to be favorable because patient-derived cells are readily available and do not entail sustained immunosuppressive therapy. DM is associated with hyperglycemia, oxidative stress and altered immune responses and inflammation. It may thus alter the biological characteristics and therapeutic qualities of human MSCs (hMSCs). Several studies have explored the effect of DM or the diabetic microenvironment on the engraftment and efficacy of transplanted MSCs, which are determined by proliferation, differentiation, senescence, angiogenesis supportive effect, migration, anti-oxidative capacity and immunomodulatory properties. This review aims to present the available data on how DM impacts MSC biology and functionality and identify future perspectives for autologous MSC-based therapy in diabetics.
