Immune-mediated diseases are characterized by abnormal activity of the immune system. The cytochalasin B-induced membrane vesicles (CIMVs) are innovative therapeutic instruments. However, the immunomodulating activity of human mesenchymal stem cell (MSC)-derived CIMVs (CIMVs-MSCs) remains unknown. Therefore, we sought to investigate the immunological properties of CIMVs-MSCs and evaluate their effect on human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs). We found that CIMVs-MSCs are primarily uptaken by monocytes and B-cells. Additionally, we demonstrated that CIMVs-MSCs inhibit phytohemagglutinin (PHA)-induced proliferation of PBMCs, with more pronounced effect on T-lymphocytes expansion as compared to that of B-cells. In addition, activation of T-helpers (CD4+CD25+), B-cells (CD19+CD25+), and T-cytotoxic lymphocytes (CD8+CD25+) was also significantly suppressed by CIMVs-MSCs. Additionally, CIMVs-MSCs decreased secretion of epidermal growth factor (EGF) and pro-inflammatory Fractalkine in a population of PBMCs, while the releases of FGF-2, G-CSF, anti-inflammatory GM-CSF, MCP-3, anti-inflammatory MDC, anti-inflammatory IL-12p70, pro-inflammatory IL-1b, and MCP-1 were increased. We analyzed the effect of CIMVs-MSCs on an isolated population of CD4+ and CD8+ T-lymphocytes and demonstrated their different immune response and cytokine secretion. Finally, we observed that no xenogeneic nor allogeneic transplantation of CIMVs induced an immune response in mice. Our data suggest that CIMVs-MSCs have immunosuppressive properties, are potential agents for immunomodulating treatment, and are worthy of further investigation.
We compared survival of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells after compressor, ultrasound, and mesh nebulization of the cell suspension over 10 min. Viability of stromal cells was best preserved after compressor nebulization (72%). Cell survival after ultrasonic nebulization was significantly lower (20%). After mesh nebulization, no live cells were found. Thus, compressor nebulization is the most preferable method of the production of cell aerosol for their delivery to the lower respiratory tract.
GABA analogs containing phenyl (phenibut) or para-chlorophenyl (baclofen) substituents demonstrated nootropic activity in a dose of 20 mg/kg: they improved passive avoidance conditioning, decelerated its natural extinction, and exerted antiamnestic effect on the models of amnesia provoked by scopolamine or electroshock. Tolyl-containing GABA analog (tolibut, 20 mg/kg) exhibited antiamnestic activity only on the model of electroshock-induced amnesia. Baclofen and, to a lesser extent, tolibut alleviated seizures provoked by electroshock, i.e. both agents exerted anticonvulsant effect. All examined GABA aryl derivatives demonstrated neuroprotective properties on the maximum electroshock model: they shortened the duration of coma and shortened the period of spontaneous motor activity recovery. In addition, these agents decreased the severity of passive avoidance amnesia and behavioral deficit in the open field test in rats exposed to electroshock. The greatest neuroprotective properties were exhibited by phenyl-containing GABA analog phenibut.

scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
