Human Marrow-Derived Mesenchymal Stem Cells (MSCs) Express Hematopoietic Cytokines and Support Long-Term Hematopoiesis When Differentiated Toward Stromal and Osteogenic Lineages

Abstract: Human mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs), bone marrow-derived pluripotent adherent cells of mesenchymal origin can differentiate along the osteogenic, chondrogenic, adipogenic, and tendonogenic lineages. In this report we characterize cytokine and growth factor gene expression by MSCs and investigate the modulation of cytokine expression that occurs during osteogenic and stromal differentiation. MSCs constitutively expressed mRNA for interleukin (IL)-6, IL-11, leukemia inhibitory factor (LIF), macrophage colony-sti… Show more

“…This finding was in concurrence with previous studies reporting that MSCs, derived from patients who had undertaken chemotherapeutic treatments for various different malignancies, produce normal levels of hemopoietic support in vitro [6,8,41]. The role of MSC damage in engraftment kinetics in vivo is unknown; however, it is known that MSCs can produce a number of early-acting cytokines that maintain HSC in quiescence or promote their self-renewal and also a variety of interleukins and cytokines which act on more mature hematopoietic progenitors [33,34].…”

“…CD44 is an adhesion molecule that plays a critical role in normal hematopoiesis [31,32], and it is the stromal microenvironment consisting of stromal cells and extracellular matrix that is thought to regulate and support the future fate of stem cells and committed progenitors along specific lineages [33][34][35]. The role and function of CD44 have been extensively studied on the surface of hemopoietic cells, however, much less so when concerning its presence on MSCs.…”

“…Under this special ocular microenvironment, these stem cells can be fully activated by expressing AC133, CD34, c-Kit, and STRO-1 receptor, and they produce certain cytokines and growth factors such as IL-6, IL-11, SCF, and GM-CSF. 31 These factors may have both effect on themselves and limbal basal stem cells, resulting in differentiation into transformed pterygium fibroblast, epithelial cells, and endothelial cells.…”

“…1,2 Moreover, hMSCs were shown to give rise to cells beyond the germ layers with visceral mesoderm, neuroectoderm, or endoderm characteristics. [2][3][4] Additional functions have been reported for hMSCs in providing cytokine and growth factor support for the expansion of hematopoetic 5 and embryonic stem cells, 6 or by playing an immunomodulatory role. 7 One of the most remarkable but least understood findings is the ability of hMSCs to migrate from bone marrow or peripheral blood into damaged tissues.…”
