Abstract
Cell-based therapeutic strategies have been proposed as an alternative for brain and blood vessels repair after stroke, but their clinical application is hampered by potential adverse effects. We therefore tested the hypothesis that secretome of these cells might be used instead to still focus on cell-based therapeutic strategies. We therefore characterized the composition and the effect of the secretome of brain microvascular endothelial cells (BMECs) on primary in vitro human models of angiogenesis and vascular barrier. Two different secretome batches produced in high scale (scHSP) were analysed by mass spectrometry. Human primary CD34+-derived endothelial cells (CD34+-ECs) were used as well as in vitro models of EC monolayer (CMECs) and blood-brain barrier (BBB). Cells were also exposed to oxygen-glucose deprivation (OGD) conditions and treated with scHSP during reoxygenation. Protein yield and composition of scHSP batches showed good reproducibility. scHSP increased CD34+-EC proliferation, tubulogenesis, and migration. Proteomic analysis of scHSP revealed the presence of growth factors and proteins modulating cell metabolism and inflammatory pathways. scHSP improved the integrity of CMECs, and upregulated the expression of junctional proteins. Such effects were mediated through the activation of the interferon pathway and downregulation of Wnt signalling. Furthermore, OGD altered the permeability of both CMECs and BBB, while scHSP prevented the OGD-induced vascular leakage in both models. These effects were mediated through upregulation of junctional proteins and regulation of MAPK/VEGFR2. Finally, our results highlight the possibility of using secretome from BMECs as a therapeutic alternative to promote brain angiogenesis and to protect from ischemia-induced vascular leakage.
期刊介绍:
Molecular Medicine is an open access journal that focuses on publishing recent findings related to disease pathogenesis at the molecular or physiological level. These insights can potentially contribute to the development of specific tools for disease diagnosis, treatment, or prevention. The journal considers manuscripts that present material pertinent to the genetic, molecular, or cellular underpinnings of critical physiological or disease processes. Submissions to Molecular Medicine are expected to elucidate the broader implications of the research findings for human disease and medicine in a manner that is accessible to a wide audience.
