Individual Differences of Multipotent Mesenchymal Stromal Cells Manifesting in during Interaction with Lymphocytes

详细

Analysis of changes in lymphocyte subpopulations during co-culturing with multipotent mesenchymal stromal cells (MSC) revealed two distinct MSC groups: one group (A) increased HLA-DR expression on lymphocytes during co-culturing and the other (B) did not change it in comparison with lymphocyte monoculture. In stromal cells interacting with lymphocytes, expression of HLA-DR molecules was initiated, but only in samples that induced enhanced expression on lymphocytes and irrespectively of whether allogeneic or autologous lymphocytes were used for co-culturing with MSC. In group A, the relative expression of IDO1 significantly increased in comparison with group B. The revealed individual differences in MSC can explain why not all MSC samples are effective in the treatment of autoimmune diseases, acute “graft—versus—host” disease, and other pathologies.
