Effect of expansion of human umbilical cord blood CD34+cells on neurotrophic and angiogenic factor expression and function

Ashalyn P. Watt et al.

Summary: CD34+ cell-based therapies have been mainly used for hematological conditions. However, recent evidence suggests that CD34+ cells derived from umbilical cord blood (UCB) have neuroregenerative properties. This study aimed to investigate the impact of CD34+ cell expansion on their function and neuroregenerative capacity. The researchers expanded UCB-derived CD34+ cells using different combinations of LDL, UM171, and SR-1 and found that 14-day expansion resulted in over 1000-fold increase in cell numbers. The expanded cells showed up-regulation of neurotrophic and angiogenic factors, and promoted angiogenesis and cell proliferation while reducing oxidative stress. These findings suggest that the 14-day expansion protocol can generate sufficient CD34+ cells for therapeutic purposes, while maintaining their functionality.

Altered trajectory of neurodevelopment associated with fetal growth restriction

Ingrid Dudink et al.

Summary: Fetal growth restriction (FGR) is mainly caused by suboptimal placental function, leading to limited nutrient and oxygen supply to the developing fetus, particularly affecting brain development. FGR results in altered brain morphology, disrupted connectivity, and region-specific brain network disturbances, which are associated with cognitive and behavioral impairments.

Neurovascular Unit Alterations in the Growth-Restricted Newborn Are Improved Following Ibuprofen Treatment

Kirat K. Chand et al.

Summary: Inflammation plays a key role in the progression of brain impairment in FGR newborns, and ibuprofen may reduce NVU disruption and brain impairment in FGR piglets. Ibuprofen treatment decreases pro-inflammatory response, enhances astrocyte interaction with blood vessels, and restores NVU integrity, improving the FGR brain microenvironment.

Combination of human endothelial colony-forming cells and mesenchymal stromal cells exert neuroprotective effects in the growth-restricted newborn

Kirat K. Chand et al.

Summary: The study found that a dose of combined MSC-ECFC on the first day of life for FGR newborn piglets improved damaged vasculature, restored the neurovascular unit, reduced brain inflammation, and improved adverse neuronal and white matter changes in the FGR newborn piglet brain. These effects were not observed with MSCs alone, indicating that cECFC treatment may act as a neuroprotectant for the FGR brain.

Imaging the construction of capillary networks in the neonatal mouse brain

Vanessa Coelho-Santos et al.

Summary: The study reveals that brain capillary networks originate exclusively from cortical ascending venules, with early, long-range sprouts connecting venules to upstream arteriolar input, establishing the backbone of the capillary bed, and short-range sprouts contributing to expansion of anastomotic connectivity within the capillary bed.

Differences and similarities between mesenchymal stem cell and endothelial progenitor cell immunoregulatory properties against T cells

Mehdi Razazian et al.

Summary: Mesenchymal stem cells and endothelial progenitor cells have unique immunoregulatory features, including proangiogenic functions and the ability to suppress the immune response, specifically T cell proliferation, activation, and cytokine production. However, the effectiveness of their immunosuppressive function can be influenced by various factors such as extraction sources, age/passage, expression of different markers, secretion of bioactive mediators, etc. Additionally, a comparison between the immunological interaction of mesenchymal stem cells and endothelial progenitor cells with T cells has not yet been published.
