    BACKGROUND: Spinal cord injury (SCI) in young adults leads to severe sensorimotor disabilities as well as slowing of growth. Systemic pro-inflammatory cytokines are associated with growth failure and muscle wasting. Here we investigated whether intravenous (IV) delivery of small extracellular vesicles (sEVs) derived from human mesenchymal stem/stromal cells (MSC) has therapeutic effects on body growth and motor recovery and can modulate inflammatory cytokines following severe SCI in young adult rats. METHODS: Contusional SCI rats were randomized into three different treatment groups (human and rat MSC-sEVs and a PBS group) on day 7 post-SCI. Functional motor recovery and body growth were assessed weekly until day 70 post-SCI. Trafficking of sEVs after IV infusions in vivo, the uptake of sEVs in vitro, macrophage phenotype at the lesion and cytokine levels at the lesion, liver and systemic circulation were also evaluated. RESULTS: An IV delivery of both human and rat MSC-sEVs improved functional motor recovery after SCI and restored normal body growth in young adult SCI rats, indicating a broad therapeutic benefit of MSC-sEVs and a lack of species specificity for these effects. Human MSC-sEVs were selectively taken up by M2 macrophages in vivo and in vitro, consistent with our previous observations of rat MSC-sEV uptake. Furthermore, the infusion of human or rat MSC-sEVs resulted in an increase in the proportion of M2 macrophages and a decrease in the production of the pro-inflammatory cytokines tumour necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α) and interleukin (IL)-6 at the injury site, as well as a reduction in systemic serum levels of TNF-α and IL-6 and an increase in growth hormone receptors and IGF-1 levels in the liver. CONCLUSIONS: Both human and rat MSC-sEVs promote the recovery of body growth and motor function after SCI in young adult rats possibly via the cytokine modulation of growth-related hormonal pathways. Thus, MSC-sEVs affect both metabolic and neurological deficits in SCI.

    Intravenous (IV) infusion of bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem/stromal cells (MSCs) stabilizes the blood-spinal cord barrier (BSCB) and improves functional recovery in experimental models of spinal cord injury (SCI). Although IV delivered MSCs do not traffic to the injury site, IV delivered small extracellular vesicles (sEVs) derived from MSCs (MSC-sEVs) do and are taken up by a subset of M2 macrophages. To test whether sEVs released by MSCs are responsible for the therapeutic effects of MSCs, we tracked sEVs produced by IV delivered DiR-labelled MSCs (DiR-MSCs) after transplantation into SCI rats. We found that sEVs were released by MSCs in vivo, trafficked to the injury site, associated specifically with M2 macrophages and co-localized with exosome markers. Furthermore, while a single MSC injection was sufficient to improve locomotor recovery, fractionated dosing of MSC-sEVs over 3 days (F-sEVs) was required to achieve similar therapeutic effects. Infusion of F-sEVs mimicked the effects of single dose MSC infusion on multiple parameters including: increased expression of M2 macrophage markers, upregulation of transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-β), TGF-β receptors and tight junction proteins, and reduction in BSCB permeability. These data suggest that release of sEVs by MSCs over time induces a cascade of cellular responses leading to improved functional recovery.

    BACKGROUND: Although spinal cord injury (SCI) is a major cause of disability, current therapeutic options remain limited. Recent progress in cellular therapy with mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) has provided improved function in animal models of SCI. We investigated the safety and feasibility of intravenous infusion of MSCs for SCI patients and assessed functional status after MSC infusion. METHODS: In this phase 2 study of intravenous infusion of autologous MSCs cultured in auto-serum, a single infusion of MSCs under Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) production was delivered in 13 SCI patients. In addition to assessing feasibility and safety, neurological function was assessed using the American Spinal Injury Association Impairment Scale (ASIA), International Standards for Neurological and Functional Classification of Spinal Cord (ISCSCI-92). Ability of daily living was assessed using Spinal Cord Independence Measure (SCIM-III). The study protocol was based on advice provided by the Pharmaceuticals and Medical Devices Agency in Japan. The trial was registered with the Japan Medical Association (JMA-IIA00154). RESULTS: No serious adverse events were associated with MSC injection. There was neurologic improvement based on ASIA grade in 12 of the 13 patients at six months post-MSC infusion. Five of six patients classified as ASIA A prior to MSC infusion improved to ASIA B (3/6) or ASIA C (2/6), two ASIA B patients improved to ASIA C (1/2) or ASIA D (1/2), five ASIA C patients improved and reached a functional status of ASIA D (5/5). Notably, improvement from ASIA C to ASIA D was observed one day following MSC infusion for all five patients. Assessment of both ISCSCI-92, SCIM-III also demonstrated functional improvements at six months after MSC infusion, compared to the scores prior to MSC infusion in all patients. CONCLUSION: While we emphasize that this study was unblinded, and does not exclude placebo effects or a contribution of endogenous recovery or observer bias, our observations provide evidence supporting the feasibility, safety and functional improvements of infused MSCs into patients with SCI.

    Cerebral small vessel disease (CSVD) is not only a cause of vascular dementia (VD) but also a contributing factor to Alzheimer's disease (AD). The essential pathological feature of CSVD is the disruption of blood-brain barrier (BBB). Dysfunction of BBB due to degeneration of both endothelial cells and pericytes in capillaries leads to neuronal damage and progressive brain atrophy. Moreover, deterioration of amyloid-β (Aβ) clearance due to the failure of the transvascular BBB transport system results in accumulation of Aβ in the brain. Intravenous infusion of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) elicits functional recovery in experimental models including stroke and spinal cord injury. One effect of MSCs is to restore disrupted BBB through remodeling of microvasculature. Using spontaneously hypertensive rats (stroke-prone) with impaired cognitive function as a CSVD model, we have shown that infused MSCs has a therapeutic effect for cognitive function. Restoration of BBB function via remodeling of microvasculature and inhibition of Aβ accumulation could inhibit progressive brain atrophy and lead to restore cognitive dysfunction. Gene expression analysis indicated that infused MSCs activates both transforming growth factor-β and angiopoietin 1 signaling pathways and promotes the remodeling of microvasculature. Thus, infused MSCs may represent a novel therapy for both VD and AD.

    OBJECTIVE: Reperfusion therapy is a standard therapeutic strategy for acute stroke. Non-favorable outcomes are thought to partially result from impaired microcirculatory flow in ischemic tissue. Intravenous infusion of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) reduces stroke volume and improves behavioral function in stroke. One suggested therapeutic mechanism is the restoration of the microvasculature. The goal of this study was to determine whether infused MSCs enhance the therapeutic efficacy of reperfusion therapy following stroke in rats. METHODS: First, to establish a transient middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) model displaying approximately identical neurologic function and lesion volume as seen in permanent MCAO (pMCAO) at day 7 after stroke induction, we transiently occluded the MCA for 90, 110, and 120 minutes. We found that the 110-minute occlusion met these criteria and was used as the transient MCAO (tMCAO) model. Next, 4 MCAO groups were used to compare the therapeutic efficacy of infused MSCs: (1) pMCAO+vehicle, (2) tMCAO+vehicle, (3) pMCAO+MSC, and (4) tMCAO+MSC. Our ischemic model was a unique ischemic model system in which both pMCAO and tMCAO provided similar outcomes during the study period in the groups without MSC infusion groups. Behavioral performance, ischemic volume, and regional cerebral blood flow (rCBF) using arterial spin labeling-magnetic resonance imaging and histologic evaluation of microvasculature was performed. RESULTS: The behavioral function, rCBF, and restoration of microvasculature were greater in group 4 than in group 3. Thus, infused MSCs facilitated the therapeutic efficacy of MCA reperfusion in this rat model system. CONCLUSIONS: Intravenous infusion of MSCs may enhance therapeutic efficacy of reperfusion therapy.

    Intravenous infusion of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) has been reported to provide therapeutic efficacy via microvascular remodeling in a spontaneously hypertensive rat. In this study, we demonstrate that intravenous infusion of MSCs increased the survival rate in a spontaneously hypertensive (stroke prone) rat model in which organs including kidney, brain, heart and liver are damaged during aging due to spontaneous hypertension. Gene expression analysis indicated that infused MSCs activates transforming growth factor-β1-smad3/forkhead box O1 signaling pathway. Renal dysfunction was recovered after MSC infusion. Collectively, intravenous infusion of MSC may extend lifespan in this model system.

    OBJECTIVE: In-stent restenosis after percutaneous transluminal angioplasty and stenting (PTAS) due to neointimal hyperplasia is a potential cause of clinical complications, including repeated revascularization and ischemic events. Neointimal hyperplasia induced by an inflammatory response to the stent strut may be a possible mechanism of in-stent restenosis. Intravenous infusion of bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) has been reported to show therapeutic efficacy for cerebral stroke, presumably by an antiinflammatory effect. This study aimed to determine whether MSCs can reduce or prevent neointimal hyperplasia induced by an endovascular stent. METHODS: In this study, two types of bare metal stents were deployed using a porcine (mini-pig) model. One stent was implanted in the common carotid artery (CCA), which is considered quite similar to the human CCA, and the other was inserted in the superficial cervical artery (SCA), which is similar in size to the human middle cerebral artery. Angiographic images, intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) imaging, and microscopic images were used for analysis. RESULTS: Angiographic images and IVUS studies revealed that intravenous infusion of MSCs immediately after deployment of stents prevented in-stent stenosis of the CCA and SCA. Histological analysis also confirmed that inflammatory responses around the stent struts were reduced in both the stented CCA and SCA in the mini-pig. CONCLUSIONS: Intravenous infusion of MSCs inhibited the inflammatory reaction to an implanted stent strut, and prevented progressive neointimal hyperplasia in the stented CCA and SCA in a porcine model. Thus, MSC treatment could attenuate the recurrence of cerebral ischemic events after stenting.

    OBJECTIVE:
    Intravenous infusion of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) derived from adult bone marrow improves behavioral function in rat models of cerebral infarction. Although clinical studies are ongoing, most studies have focused on the acute or subacute phase of stroke. In the present study, MSCs derived from bone marrow of rats were intravenously infused 8 weeks after the induction of a middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) to investigate whether delayed systemic injection of MSCs improves functional outcome in the chronic phase of stroke in rats.

    METHODS:
    Eight weeks after induction of the MCAO, the rats were randomized and intravenously infused with either MSCs or vehicle. Ischemic volume and behavioral performance were examined. Blood-brain barrier (BBB) integrity was assessed by quantifying the leakage of Evans blue into the brain parenchyma after intravenous infusion. Immunohistochemical analysis was also performed to evaluate the stability of the BBB.

    RESULTS:
    Motor recovery was better in the MSC-treated group than in the vehicle-treated group, with rapid improvement (evident at 1 week post-infusion). In MSC-treated rats, reduced BBB leakage and increased microvasculature/repair and neovascularization were observed.

    CONCLUSIONS:
    These results indicate that the systemic infusion of MSCs results in functional improvement, which is associated with structural changes in the chronic phase of cerebral infarction, including in the stabilization of the BBB.

    OBJECTIVE: Morbidity and mortality in patients with posterior circulation stroke remains an issue despite advances in acute stroke therapies. The intravenous infusion of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) elicits therapeutic efficacy in experimental supratentorial stroke models. However, since there are few reliable animal models of ischemia in the posterior circulation, the therapeutic approach with intravenous MSC infusion has not been tested. The objective of this study was to test the hypothesis that intravenously infused MSCs provide functional recovery in a newly developed model of brainstem infarction in rats.

    METHODS: Basilar artery (BA) occlusion (BAO) was established in rats by selectively ligating 4 points of the proximal BA with 10-0 nylon monofilament suture. The intravenous infusion of MSCs was performed 1 day after BAO induction. MRI and histological examinations were performed to assess ischemic lesion volume, while multiple behavioral tests were performed to evaluate functional recovery.

    RESULTS: The MSC-treated group exhibited a greater reduction in ischemic lesion volume, while behavioral testing indicated that the MSC-infused group had greater improvement than the vehicle group 28 days after the MSC infusion. Accumulated infused MSCs were observed in the ischemic brainstem lesion.

    CONCLUSIONS: Infused MSCs may provide neuroprotection to facilitate functional outcomes and reduce ischemic lesion volume as evaluated in a newly developed rat model of persistent BAO.

    Recent evidence has demonstrated that remote responses in the brain, as well as local responses in the injured spinal cord, can be induced after spinal cord injury (SCI). Intravenous infusion of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) has been shown to provide functional improvements in SCI through local therapeutic mechanisms that provide neuroprotection, stabilization of the blood-spinal cord barrier, remyelination, and axonal sprouting. In the present study, we examined the brain response that might be associated with the functional improvements induced by the infused MSCs after SCI. Genome-wide RNA profiling was performed in the motor cortex of SCI rats at 3 days post-MSC or vehicle infusion. Then, quantitative reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) data revealed that the "behaviorally-associated differentially expressed genes (DEGs)" were identified by the Pearson's correlation analysis with the behavioral function, suggesting that the "behaviorally-associated DEGs" may be related to the functional recovery after systemic infusion of MSCs in SCI. These results suggested that the infused MSCs alter the gene expression signature in the brain and that these expression changes may contribute to the improved function in SCI.

    INTRODUCTION: Intravenous preload (delivered before cavernous nerve [CN] injury) of bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) can prevent or decrease postoperative erectile dysfunction (J Sex Med 2015;12:1713-1721). In the present study, the potential therapeutic effects of intravenously administered MSCs on postoperative erectile dysfunction were evaluated in a rat model of CN injury. METHODS: Male Sprague-Dawley rats were randomized into 2 groups after electric CN injury. Intravenous infusion of bone marrow-derived MSCs (1.0 × 106 cells in Dulbecco's modified Eagle's medium 1 mL) or vehicle (Dulbecco's modified Eagle's medium 1 mL) was performed 3 hours after electrocautery-induced CN injury. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: To assess erectile function, we measured intracavernous pressure at 4 weeks after MSC or vehicle infusion. Histologic examinations were performed to investigate neuronal innervation and inhibition of smooth muscle atrophy. Green fluorescent protein-positive bone marrow-derived MSCs were used for cell tracking. To investigate mRNA expression levels of neurotrophins in the major pelvic ganglia (MPGs), quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction was performed. RESULTS: The decrease of intracavernous pressure corrected for arterial pressure and area under the curve of intracavernous pressure in the bone marrow-derived MSC group was significantly lower than that in the vehicle group at 4 weeks after infusion (P < .05). Retrograde neuronal tracing indicated that the MSC group had a larger number of FluoroGold-positive neurons in the MPGs compared with the vehicle group. The ratio of smooth muscle to collagen in the MSC group was significantly higher than in the vehicle group. Green fluorescent protein-positive bone marrow-derived MSCs were detected in the MPGs and injured CNs using confocal microscopy, indicating homing of cells to the MPGs and injured CNs. Brain-derived neurotrophic factor and glial cell-derived neurotrophic factor expression levels in the MPGs were significantly higher in the MSC group than in the vehicle group (P < .01). CONCLUSION: Intravenous infusion of bone marrow-derived MSCs after CN injury might have therapeutic efficacy in experimental erectile dysfunction. Matsuda Y, Sasaki M, Kataoka-Sasaki Y, et al.

    BACKGROUND: The transfemoral approach is a common technique for coil embolization of cerebral aneurysms in the anterior cerebral circulation. However, it is difficult to advance a guiding catheter into the carotid artery via the femoral route in patients with a tortuous aortic arch, an unfavorable supra-aortic takeoff, aortic diseases, or occlusion of the femoral artery. OBJECTIVE: To report our initial experiences of coil embolization of cerebral aneurysms in the anterior cerebral circulation with a novel sheath guide for transbrachial carotid cannulation. METHODS: A sheath guide designed specifically for transbrachial carotid cannulation was developed; transbrachial coil embolization for cerebral aneurysms began in May 2011. Included for analysis were patients who underwent transbrachial coil embolization for cerebral aneurysms in the anterior cerebral circulation from May 2011 to January 2012. Adjuvant techniques, angiographic results, procedural success, and periprocedural complications were investigated. RESULTS: Ten patients underwent transbrachial coil embolization of cerebral aneurysms in the anterior cerebral circulation. All procedures were successful using the brachial route. No periprocedural complications occurred. Patients were permitted to get seated immediately after coil embolization even during hemostasis. CONCLUSION: The sheath guide specifically designed for transbrachial carotid cannulation was useful for coil embolization of cerebral aneurysms in the anterior cerebral circulation.

  • Repeated Injection of Contrast Medium Inducing Dysfunction of the Blood-Brain Barrier Reviewed

    An early 60s-year-old man suffered reversible dysfunction of the blood-brain barrier (BBB) induced by repeated injection of contrast medium during coil embolization of intracranial unruptured aneurysm. He presented with convulsion during coil embolization, and neurological symptoms of aphasia and right hemiparesis continued for 5 days, and then improved completely. All transient radiological abnormalities were limited to the territory of the left internal carotid artery, where contrast medium was injected repeatedly. Repeated computed tomography, magnetic resonance imaging, single-photon emission computed tomography, and cerebrospinal fluid test findings indicated that temporary dysfunction of the BBB might have occurred. Dysfunction of the BBB in the anterior circulation induced by contrast medium is rare. Tolerance to toxicity of contrast medium may depend on the individual patient, and repeated injection of contrast medium may cause dysfunction of the BBB, leading to toxic dysfunction directly in the brain.

    Recently, intravenous mesenchymal stem cells (MSC) transplantation has been reported that greater therapeutic efficacy can be achieved via multiple mechanisms for various disorders. In this study, we aimed to investigate the effect of MSC transplantation in a rat model of vascular dementia by histological, MRI, and behavioral analysis. We used the Spontaneously hypertensive rats stroke-prone (SHRSP) with cognitive impairment. At week 21of age, transplantation of MSC was performed by intravenous injection. Compared with the vehicle group, the MSC infused group showed a significant improvement in cognitive function. The MRI demonstrated that the MSC infused group showed a significant reduction of brain atrophy compared to the vehicle group. The histological analysis also showed the volume of cerebral cortex and hippocampus were higher in MSC group than vehicle group. Collectively, intravenous infusion of MSCs might provide therapeutic efficacy in a rat model of vascular dementia.

    The enhanced neural plasticity at the injured tissue and/or in the higher level of spinal cord and brain following intravenous infusion of MSCs in spinal cord injury (SCI) model was thought to be due to protection from neuronal, axonal loss or degeneration in the injured tissue, and stabilization of the blood-spinal cord barrier. Furthermore, we analyzed the variable genes expressed in the motor cortex at the 3 days post-MSC infusion, when functional improvement was observed, and found that there were changes in the expression levels of several genes, which may enhance neural plasticity. Consequently, we found that intravenous infusion of MSCs in SCI may promote the functional improvement through the enhanced neural plasticity induced at the injured tissue and at the upper spinal cord and brain.

    Neurofunctional recovery in spinal cord injury following intravenous infusion of Mesenchymal stem cells has been reported. It is one of the most important mechanisms of functional improvement that remote responses occur in the brain as well as in the injured spinal cord. Therefore, we performed MRI analysis after MSC administration for spinal cord injury in patients and animal experimental models, and histological analysis for animal models at the same time, and clarified that neural circuit rearrangement occurred.

    The reorganization of neural circuits in the brain after spinal cord injury has been previously reported using MRI diffusion tensor imaging and other techniques, but there are few reports using detailed neuroanatomical methods. The purpose of this study was to analyze in detail the reorganization of neural circuits in the brain after spinal cord injury using adeno-associated virus (AAV), which is known as a progressive neural tracer.
    AAV-8 carrying the CAG promoter was found to have high efficiency of transduction, adaptive tracking, and cell-selective labeling in the brain. Furthermore, analysis of the brain after spinal cord injury using the same vector suggested that neural circuit reconstruction had occurred.

    Intravenous infusion of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) has been shown to provide functional improvements in spinal cord injury (SCI) through local therapeutic mechanisms that provide neuroprotection, remyelination, and axonal sprouting. Recent evidence has demonstrated that remote responses in the brain, as well as local responses in the injured spinal cord, can be induced after SCI. In the present study, we examined the brain response that might be associated with the functional improvements induced by the infused MSCs after SCI. Genome-wide RNA profiling was performed in the motor cortex of SCI rats at 3 days post-MSC or vehicle infusion. Then, quantitative reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) data revealed that the seven behaviorally-associated differentially expressed genes (DEGs) had significant correlations with the behavioral function. These behaviorally-associated DEGs may be related to the functional recovery after systemic infusion of MSCs in SCI.

    Intravenous of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) following cerebral infarction exerts functional recovery. Previous study has suggested potential therapeutic mechanisms that promote neuroprotection and synaptogenesis, secretion of neurotrophic factors, remodeling of neural circuits, and elevation of trophic factors. In addition to these mechanisms, we hypothesized that restored interhemispheric connectivity might be an additional mechanism of neural improvements. In this study, we have demonstrated that there was anatomical restoration of cortical interhemispheric connections after infused MSCs in middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO). These results suggest that distinct preservation of interhemispheric cortical connections through corpus callosum was preserved by intravenous infusion of MSCs. This anatomical preservation of the motor cortex in the contralateral hemisphere may contribute to improvements in neural function after MSC therapy for cerebral stroke.

    Gliomas account for 24.1% of primary brain tumors. It is difficult to cure the disease with multimodality treatment combined with surgery, chemotherapy, and radiotherapy. The 5-year survival rate of glioblastoma which is the most malignant type of gliomas is only 10.1%. The reason for the poor prognosis is the invasive capacity, however, the factors and mechanisms of invasion or migration is still unknown.In this study, we found several factors which related to the prognosis of gliomas such as ACTC1 (actin alpha cardiac muscle 1), SERPINEA1, IL13 receptor alpha 2. Among these, ACTC1 was also closely related to the invasion of malignant gliomas. In addition, timelapse study of U87 malignant glioma cell line revealed gene knockdown of ACTC1 using by siRNA resulted in the inhibition of migration of glioma cells. The present study demonstrated that targeting of migration capacity of glioma cells may lead to the improvement of prognosis of malignant gliomas.

    Recent studies has demonstrated that remote responses in the brain, as well as local responses in the injured spinal cord, can be occurred following spinal cord injury (SCI). Intravenous infusion of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) has been shown to elicit functional recovery in SCI through local mechanisms. We studied brain response that might be associated with the functional improvements induced by the infused MSCs following SCI. Genomewide RNA profiling was conducted in the motor cortex of SCI rats at 3 days post infusion. Then, qRT-PCR revealed that the ‘‘behaviorally-associated differentially expressed genes (DEGs)’’ were identified by the Pearson’s correlation analysis with the behavioral function, suggesting that these genes may be related to the functional recovery after infused MSCs. These results suggested that the infused MSCs alter the gene expression signature in the brain and that these expression changes may contribute to the improved function.

    In-stent restenosis causes recurrent ischemic events. Neointimal hyperplasia induced by an inflammatory response to the stent strut may be a possible mechanism of in-stent restenosis. Intravenous infusion of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) has been reported to show therapeutic efficacy for cerebral stroke presumably by an anti-inflammatory effect. This study aimed to determine whether MSCs can reduce or prevent neointimal hyperplasia induced by an endovascular stent. We deployed two types of stents using an animal model. Stents were implanted in the common carotid artery (CCA), and superficial cervical artery (SCA). Infused MSC immediately after deployment of stents prevented in-stent stenosis of CCA and SCA. Intravenous infusion of MSCs inhibited the inflammatory reaction to an implanted stent strut, and prevented progressive neointimal hyperplasia in the stented CCA and SCA. Thus, MSC treatment could attenuate the recurrence of cerebral ischemic events after stenting.

    Reperfusion therapy with rtPA is the standard therapy for stroke. However, hemorrhagic complications can result. Intravenous infusion of MSCs provides therapeutic efficacy. One suggested mechanism is inhibition of endothelial dysfunction. Four groups were studied: 1) NS+vehicle, 2) rtPA+vehicle, 3) NS+MSCs, 4) rtPA+MSCs. The MSC-treated groups (3,4) experienced a greater reduction in the incidence rate of intracerebral hemorrhage and hemorrhagic volume after tMCAO even if rtPA was received. Behavioral testing indicated that MSC-infused groups had greater improvement, but rtPA+MSCs provided greater improvement than MSCs alone. The rCBF ratio of rtPA groups (2,4) was similar at 2 hours after reperfusion of tMCAO, but both were greater than that in non-rtPA groups. Infused MSCs may inhibit endothelial dysfunction to suppress hemorrhagic events and facilitate functional outcome. Combined therapy MSCs and rtPA facilitated early behavioral recovery.

    Intravenous infusion of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) improves behavioral function in rat stroke models. MRI Diffusion tensor imaging tractography demonstrated that increasedmore “number of tracks” was observed in the MSC-treated group compared to the non-treated group. The number of synaptic puncta in non-infarcted the cortex in the MSC-treated group was higher than the non-treated group. Corpus callosum thickness was greater in the MSC-treated group than the non-treated group. These results suggested enhanced plasticity was occurred following intravenous infusion of MSCs in cerebral infarction. It is conceivable that these processmechanisms might contribute to functional improvement by the infused MSCs in strokefrom cerebral infarction.

    Intravenous infusion of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) derived from bone marrow improves behavioral function in rat models of acute spinal cord injury (SCI). In this study, MSCs were infused 10 weeks after the induction of a severe contusive SCI. Locomotor function was assessed until 20 weeks post-SCI. Motor recovery was greater in the MSC group with rapid improvement beginning in earlier post-infusion times than in the vehicle group. Blood spinal cord barrier (BSCB) integrity was assessed by the intravenous infusion of Evans Blue with quantitation of its leakage, and that was reduced in the MSC group. There was extensive remyelination around the lesion center and increased neovascularization/sprouting of the nerve fibers. These results indicate that the MSC therapy results in functional improvements that is associated with structural changes in the chronically injured spinal cord including stabilization of the BSCB, axonal sprouting/regeneration and remyelination.

    We aimed to investigate the effect of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) transplantation in a rat model of neonatal hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy (HIE) by histological, MRI, and behavioral analysis. At postnatal day 7, rats were underwent HI by left common carotid artery occlusion followed by 120 min hypoxia (8% oxygen). At postnatal day 10, transplantation of MSCs was performed by intravenous injection. Compared with the vehicle (control) group, the MSC infused group showed a significant improvement in athletic performance by the evaluation with the beam walk test. The MRI also demonstrated that the MSC infused group showed a significant reduction of the ischemic volume compared to the vehicle group. Collectively, intravenous infusion of MSCs might provide therapeutic efficacy in a rat model of HIE.

    Intravenous infusion of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) derived from adult bone marrow improves behavioral function in rat stroke models. The purpose of this study was to investigate whether synergic effects of daily rehabilitation and intravenous infusion of MSCs has therapeutic effects after stroke in rats. A permanent middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) was induced by intraluminal vascular occlusion with a microfilament. Rat MSCs were intravenously infused after MCAO induction, and the rats received daily rehabilitation with treadmill running exercise. Both combined therapy and MSC infusion reduced lesion volume, induced synaptogenesis, and elicited functional improvement compared with the groups without MSC infusion, but the effect was greater in the combined therapy group. The data indicate that the combined therapy of daily rehabilitation and intravenous infusion of MSCs improved functional outcome in a rat MCAO model.

    Intravenous infusion of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) from adult bone marrow ameliorates functional deficits in rat cerebral infarction models. In this study, we found functional improvements evaluated with behavioral testing following systemic administration of MSCs in stroke. Immunohistochemical analysis demonstrated that synaptogenesis was induced around the ischemic lesion in the MSC treated group. Collectively, neural plasticity might contribute to the functional recovery following intravenous infusion of MSCs in a rat model of stroke.

    Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) derived from bone marrow may represent a potential source for organ regeneration via multiple mechanisms based on animal experiments. In this study, we induced a contusive SCI at T9 in the rat and studied the effects of intravenous MSC infusion on blood spinal cord barrier (BSCB) permeability, microvascular architecture and locomotor recover. Spatial and temporal changes in BSCB integrity were assessed by intravenous infusions of Evans blue (EvB). SCI resulted in prolonged BSCB leakage that was most severe at the impact site but disseminated extensively rostral and caudal to the lesion. Contused spinal cords also showed an increase in microvasculature. In MSC-treated rats, BSCB leakage was reduced, and locomotor function improved after MSC infusion. These results suggest that intravenously delivered MSCs have important effects on reducing BSCB leakage which could contribute to their therapeutic efficacy.

    Recent advance in regenerative medicine have demonstrated that greater therapeutic efficacy can be obtained by stem cell therapy via multiple mechanisms compared to the standard therapies for various diseases. Especially, it has been suggested that bone marrow stem cells may represent an alternative source of neural progenitor cells for organ regeneration. Among bone marrow stem cells, much attention has been paid to mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs, also referred to as bone marrow stromal cells) because of their plasticity for differentiation into classical mesenchymal lineages, such as neuronal lineages. In this study, cell biological analyses were performed with MSCs from human and rat bone marrow using several molecular, biochemical and genetics approaches. Therapeutic efficacy with rat MSCs in vivo was also examined with rat stroke model.
