Genetic contribution to mesenchymal stem cell dysfunction in systemic lupus erythematosus

Abstract: Allogeneic mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) transplantation has recently become a promising therapy for patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). MSCs are a kind of multipotent stem cell than can efficiently modulate both innate and adaptive immune responses, yet those from SLE patients themselves fail to maintain the balance of immune cells, which is partly due to the abnormal genetic background. Clarifying genetic factors associated with MSC dysfunction may be helpful to delineate SLE pathogenesis and pro… Show more

“…Unfortunately, we failed to notice any significant changes in CD90 expression after three days exposure of HD/ASCs and RD/ASCs to TI stimulation (data not shown). Although this observation does not rule out the likelihood of CD90 loss due to the action of other factors contributing to chronic inflammation, alternative explanations, e.g., intrinsic defects, also exist [12].…”

“…However, depending on local conditions, tissue-resident MSCs can exhibit either anti-or pro-inflammatory capabilities, and thus may exert either protective effects or contribute to disease development [9]. In SLE and SSc, a growing body of data indicates numerous abnormalities of bone marrow derived MSCs (BM-MSCs), suggesting their possible contribution to disease pathology and raising questions about their autologous therapeutic application [10][11][12][13]. The knowledge about BM-MSC biology in AS is much less; limited data show aberrant function of these cells, and therefore several ongoing clinical trials apply allogenic MSCs [14][15][16].…”

“…Because of the differentiation and immunoregulatory capacity of MSCs, their dysfunction has been proposed as the mediating mechanism in a wide variety of disease states. Shifts in the fate choice of MSCs, reduction in their overall proliferative capacity or in their differentiation to a particular cell type, as well as their role in mediating the activity of other cell populations have been demonstrated to play varying roles in disease progression [3][4][5].…”

“…A previous study has reported that a decrease in circulating T-reg cells may promote the appearance of autoreactive T-and B-cells, the loss of homeostasis, and immune system failure, which is associated with SLE occurrence 5 . Another study reported that the enhancement of T-reg cell functions may have useful effects for human SLE 6 , and an SLE treatment that is currently being developed is the transplantation of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) 7 . MSCs are nonhematopoietic, plastic-adherent, multipotent, and fibroblastic-like cells that may express several surface markers, such as CD90, CD105, CD44, CD73, and lack the expression others, such as CD79, CD19, CD14, CD11b, CD45, CD34, and human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-DR 8 .…”
