Multifaceted Therapeutic Benefits of Factors Derived From Dental Pulp Stem Cells for Mouse Liver Fibrosis

Abstract: This study demonstrated that a single intravenous administration of stem cells from human exfoliated deciduous teeth (SHEDs) or of the serum-free conditioned medium (CM) derived from SHEDs markedly improved mouse liver fibrosis (LF). SHED-CM suppressed chronic inflammation, eliminated activated hepatic stellate cells by inducing their apoptosis, protected hepatocytes from undergoing apoptosis, and induced differentiation of tissue-repairing macrophages expressing high levels of the profibrinolytic factor matri… Show more

“…Dental pulp stem cells secrete a broad repertoire of trophic and immunomodulatory factors that have the potential to treat various types of intractable diseases [22][23][24][25][26][36][37][38][39][40][41]. We previously showed that the factors in SHED-CM improve PNI in a rat model of sciatic nerve transection; however, the mechanisms involved in repairing the damaged nerve have been elusive.…”

“…Taken together, it is considered that both neural differentiation and paracrine mechanism are responsible for SHED‐induced therapeutic potential for contused spinal cord injury. Likewise, it has been demonstrated that SHED transplantation ameliorate liver fibrotic disfunction via integrated actions of both direct hepatocyte differentiation and indirect paracrine mechanism‐mediated antifibrosis and anti‐inflammation potentials . Consequently, in terms of mechanisms underlying PSC transplantation‐derived benefits, it is important to note that paracrine mechanism initiated by therapeutic factors secreted from transplanted PSCs, at least partially, participates in treatment and enhances endogenous tissue repair capability.…”

“…90 Similarly, adipose-derived stem cells (ASC) are transplanted after reconstructive surgery after tumor ablation. 91 Similarly, a single intravenous administration of stem cells derived from human exfoliated deciduous teeth (SHEDs) or of SHED-derived serum-free conditioned medium (SHED-CM) resulted in fibrotic scar resolution.…”
