July 2023 in “Bioengineering & translational medicine” The study demonstrated that mesenchymal stem cell paracrine proteins (MSC-PP) derived from a 3D dynamic culture system, combined with PEG thermogel, significantly improved wound healing in third-degree burn models. The MSC-PP treatment enhanced the migration and proliferation of dermal fibroblasts and keratinocytes, reduced inflammation, and promoted re-epithelialization, skin appendage recovery, and angiogenesis. The PEG thermogel provided a stable release of MSC-PP and exhibited no cytotoxicity, making it an effective carrier for MSC-PP delivery. The MSC-PP + PEG group showed the most effective wound contraction, minimal scarring, and the highest presence of CD26+/Sca-1+ and Dlk-1+/Sca-1+ cells, which are crucial for inhibiting scar formation.
December 2022 in “Nature Communications” The study introduces a bead-jet printing system for sparse mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) patterning, significantly enhancing skeletal muscle and hair follicle regeneration. Using Matrigel beads to encapsulate MSCs, the system improves cell retention, proliferation, and migration compared to traditional methods. High-density MSCs in sparse patterns among acellular beads provide superior therapeutic outcomes, reducing the number of MSCs needed for effective treatment. The method activates the PI3K-Akt and Wnt/β-CATENIN signaling pathways, leading to better muscle regeneration with less fibrosis and improved skin healing with increased hair follicle formation. The findings suggest that bead-jet printing of MSCs in high-density patterns can significantly enhance tissue regeneration outcomes, making it a promising approach for large-scale traumatic injury therapy.
