全球终末期肝病、肝衰竭的发病率和死亡率逐年升高,且目前肝移植是唯一疗效确切的治疗选择,但是,肝移植的使用受到肝源供体严重不足,长期存活率低,医疗费用昂贵等缺点使得原位肝移植的应用受限,绝大多数患者无法受益。为了克服肝脏器官短缺,干细胞替代治疗策略逐渐成为另一个肝病治疗的重要选择,干细胞治疗,特别是间充质干细胞(MSC)提供了一个新的肝病治疗选择。MSC是一群贴壁生长的成纤维细胞样细胞,由于MSC能够分化为多种类型的细胞,能够产生多种的细胞因子和生长因子,具有造血支持和免疫调节和抗炎功能,MSC被认为在再生医学领域具有重大的科学和实用价值。另外,由于MSC应用于治疗实验性肝损伤能明显提高动物存活率,明显改善肝功能。此外,一些临床前研究和临床研究也表明MSC对肝损伤性疾病具有显著地疗效。因此MSC在损伤性和退行性肝脏疾病的治疗具有广阔的应用前景。本文综述了MSC在肝损伤疾病治疗应用的进展,并对MSC在肝病治疗中的应用前景进行了展望。  相似文献

Characterization of cells in the developing human liver   总被引:12,自引:0,他引:12  
Human hepatic progenitor cells (HPCs) have been shown to co-express the hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) markers, CD117 and CD34. These cells differentiate not only into hepatocytes and cholangiocytes but also into pancreatic ductal and acinar cells under certain conditions. The fetal liver (FL) is rich in precursor/stem cells; however, little is known about (i) the markers expressed by liver cells during fetal development and (ii) whether an equivalent to the adult liver stem-like progenitors exists in the FL. Here, (i) FL tissue obtained from human 5-18-week-old fetuses were evaluated by means of flow cytometry, immunocyto-, and histochemistry for the emergence of cells expressing and co-expressing known hematopoietic, hepatic, and pancreatic cell markers, and (ii) isolated putative HPCs were phenotypically and molecularly characterized. We report that (i) red blood and endothelial cell precursors were most abundant in early gestation. Cells expressing HSC and pancreatic markers were found in the first trimester, while cells expressing hepatic markers appeared in the second trimester. Very few committed cells were present in FLs obtained early in the first trimester. In addition, cells expressing pancreatic markers co-expressed the HSC marker CD117. (ii) Isolated CD117+/CD34+/CD90- cells in vitro expressed both the genes and proteins for the hepatic markers such as albumin, alpha feto protein (AFP), alpha1-antitrypsin, and cytokeratin 19 (CK19). Our study suggests that hepatoblast and ductal plate/bile duct development mainly occurs during the second trimester. FLs in gestation weeks 5-9 had the highest numbers of precursor cells and the least committed cells. Cells that differentiate into Alb+ or CK19+ can be isolated from early FLs and may be appropriate progenitors for establishing novel systems to investigate basic mechanisms for cell therapy.  相似文献

Liver stem cells     
Neil D. Theise 《Cytotechnology》2003,41(2-3):139-144
The capacity of hepatocytes and cholangiocytes to contribute to their own maintenance has long been recognized. More recently, studies have indicated the presence of both intra-hepatic and extra-hepatic stem/progenitor cell populations. The intraorgan compartment probably derives primarily from the biliary tree, most particularly the most proximal branches, i.e. the canals of Hering and smallest ductules. The extra-organ compartment is at least in part derived from diverse populations of cells from the bone marrow. These three tiers of liver cell regeneration serve to maintain the normal organ and to regenerate damaged parenchyma in response to a variety of insults. The nature and extent of the insult determines the balance between these stem/progenitor compartments. This revised version was published online in July 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date.  相似文献

作为造血干/祖细胞(hematopoieticstemcells/hematopoieticprogenitorcells,HSCs/HPCs)的另一来源,脐带血已经应用于临床治疗多种恶性和非恶性疾病。脐带血中HSCs/HPCs的质与量是决定其临床应用效果的最重要因素。同时,脐带血中还存在多种非造血的干细胞和前体细胞,如间充质干细胞(mesenchymalstemcells,MSCs)、内皮前体细胞(endothelialprogenitorcells,EPCs)和非限制性体干细胞(unrestrictedsomaticstemcells,USSCs)等,这些细胞可能会在未来的细胞治疗和再生医学中发挥重要作用。本综述还讨论了脐带血的临床应用及HSCs/HPCs的体外扩增、增加HSCs归巢和再植能力等提高其临床应用能力的相关研究。  相似文献

It is still unclear whether the timing of intracoronary stem cell therapy affects the therapeutic response in patients with myocardial infarction.The natural course of healing the infarction and the presence of putative homing signals within the damaged myocardium appear to favor cell engraftment during the transendothelial passage in the early days after reperfusion.However,the adverse inflammatory environment,with its high oxidative stress,might be deleterious if cells are administered too early after reperfusion.Here we highlight several aspects of the timing of intracoronary stem cell therapy.Our results showed that transplantation of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells at 2 4 weeks after myocardial infarction is more favorable for reduction of the scar area,inhibition of left ventricular remodeling,and recovery of heart function.Coronary injection of autologous bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells at 2 4 weeks after acute myocardial infarction is safe and does not increase the incidence of complications.  相似文献

Background

Adenovirus (ADV) reactivation can cause significant morbidity and mortality in children after allogeneic stem cell transplantation. Antiviral drugs can control viremia, but viral clearance requires recovery of cell-mediated immunity.

Method

This study was an open-label phase 1/2 study to investigate the feasibility of generating donor-derived ADV-specific T cells (Cytovir ADV, Cell Medica) and to assess the safety of pre-emptive administration of ADV-specific T cells in high-risk pediatric patients after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) to treat adenoviremia. Primary safety endpoints included graft-versus-host disease (GvHD), and secondary endpoints determined antiviral responses and use of antiviral drugs.

Results

Between January 2013 and May 2016, 92 donors were enrolled for the production of ADV T cells at three centers in the United Kingdom (UK), and 83 products were generated from 72 mobilized peripheral blood harvests and 20 steady-state whole blood donations. Eight children received Cytovir ADV T cells after standard therapy and all resolved ADV viremia between 15 and 127 days later. ADV-specific T cells were detectable using enzyme-linked immunospot assay (ELISpot) in the peripheral blood of all patients analyzed. Serious adverse events included Grade II GvHD, Astrovirus encephalitis and pancreatitis.

Conclusion

The study demonstrates the safety and feasibility of pre-emptively manufacturing peptide pulsed ADV-specific cells for high-risk pediatric patients after transplantation and provides early evidence of clinical efficacy.  相似文献

骨髓移植是目前治疗恶性白血病以及遗传性血液病最有效的方法之一。但是HLA相匹配的骨髓捐献者严重短缺,骨髓造血干细胞(hematopoietic stem cells,HSCs)体外培养困难,在体外修复患者骨髓造血干细胞技术不成熟,这些都大大限制了骨髓移植在临床上的应用。多能性胚胎干细胞(embryonic stem cells,ESCs)具有自我更新能力,在合适的培养条件下分化形成各种血系细胞,是造血干细胞的另一来源。在过去的二十多年里,血发生的研究是干细胞生物学中最为活跃的领域之一。小鼠及人的胚胎干细胞方面的研究最近取得了重大进展。这篇综述总结了近年来从胚胎干细胞获得造血干细胞的成就,以及在安全和技术上的障碍。胚胎干细胞诱导生成可移植性血干细胞的研究能够使我们更好地了解正常和异常造血发生的机制,同时也为造血干细胞的临床应用提供理论和实验依据。  相似文献

In a previous study, we elucidated the specific microRNA (miRNA) profile of hepatic differentiation. In this study, we aimed to clarify the instructive role of six overexpressed miRNAs (miR-1246, miR-1290, miR-148a, miR-30a, miR-424 and miR-542-5p) during hepatic differentiation of human umbilical cord lining-derived mesenchymal stem cells (hMSCs) and to test whether overexpression of any of these miRNAs is sufficient to induce differentiation of the hMSCs into hepatocyte-like cells. Before hepatic differentiation, hMSCs were infected with a lentivirus containing a miRNA inhibitor sequence. We found that downregulation of any one of the six hepatic differentiation-specific miRNAs can inhibit HGF-induced hepatic differentiation including albumin expression and LDL uptake. Although overexpression of any one of the six miRNAs alone or liver-enriched miR-122 cannot initiate hepatic differentiation, ectopic overexpression of seven miRNAs (miR-1246, miR-1290, miR-148a, miR-30a, miR-424, miR-542-5p and miR-122) together can stimulate hMSC conversion into functionally mature induced hepatocytes (iHep). Additionally, after transplantation of the iHep cells into mice with CCL4-induced liver injury, we found that iHep not only can improve liver function but it also can restore injured livers. The findings from this study indicate that miRNAs have the capability of directly converting hMSCs to a hepatocyte phenotype in vitro.  相似文献

The haemopoietic stem cell (HSC) has long been regarded as an archetypal, tissue specific, stem cell, capable of completely regenerating haemopoiesis after myeloablation. It has proved relatively easy to harvest HSC, from bone marrow or peripheral blood. In turn, isolation of these cells has allowed therapeutic stem cell transplantation protocols to be developed, that capitalise on their prodigious self renewal and proliferative capabilities. Ex vivo approaches have been described to isolate, genetically manipulateand expand pluripotent stem cell subsets. These techniques have been crucial to the development of gene therapy, and may allow adults to enjoy the potential advantages of cord blood transplantation. Recently, huge conceptual changes have occurred in stem cell biology. In particular, the dogma that, in adults, stem cells are exclusively tissue restricted has been questioned and there is great excitement surrounding the potential plasticity of these cells, with the profound implications that this has, for developing novel cellular therapies. Mesenchymal stem cells, multipotent adult progenitor cells and embryonic stem cells are potential sources of cells for transplantation purposes. These cells may be directed toproduce HSC, in vitro and in the future may be used for therapeutic, or drug development, purposes. This revised version was published online in July 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date.  相似文献

Human embryonic stem cells are pluripotent cells that can serve as a cell source for transplantation medicine, and as a tool to study human embryogenesis. We investigate here the potential of human embryonic stem cells to differentiate into hepatic cells. We have characterized the expression level of liver-enriched genes in undifferentiated and differentiated human embryonic stem cells by DNA microarrays. Our analysis revealed a subset of fetal hepatic enriched genes that are expressed in human embryonic stem cells upon differentiation into embryoid bodies. In order to isolate the hepatic-like cells, we introduced a reporter gene regulated by a hepatocyte-specific promoter into human embryonic stem cells. We isolated clones of human embryonic stem cells that express enhanced green fluorescent protein upon in vitro differentiation. Through immunostaining, we showed that most of these cells express albumin, while some cells still express the earlier expressed protein alpha-fetoprotein. Using fluorescence activated cell sorter, we were able to sort out the fluorescent differentiated cells and expand them for a few more weeks. This is the first report to demonstrate the possibility of purifying differentiated derivatives of human embryonic stem cells and culturing them further. Through confocal microscopy, we detected clusters of hepatic-like cells in 20-day-old embryoid bodies and in teratomas. As observed during embryonic development, we showed that in teratomas, the hepatic-like endodermal cells develop next to cardiac mesodermal cells. In order to examine the secreted factors involved in the induction of hepatic differentiation, human embryonic stem cells were grown in the presence of various growth factors, demonstrating the potential involvement of acidic fibroblast growth factor in the differentiation. In conclusion, given certain growth conditions and genetic manipulation, we can now differentiate and isolate hepatic-like cells from human embryonic stem cells.  相似文献

The insufficiency of liver functions remains one of the major causes of death. The liver transplantation is the most effective method for treating severe liver diseases. The shortage of donor organs and high risk of graft rejection are the main problems for liver transplantation. Stem cells and isolated hepatocytes are the alternative means for repopulating liver after various injuries instead of liver transplantation. This review analyses achievements in therapy of liver insufficiency by means of stem cells in model experiments on animals as well as in clinical practice and also perspectives of employment of stem cells for treatment of liver insufficiency.  相似文献

Background aimsHematopoietic stem cell cryopreservation significantly contributed to autologous stem cell transplantation (ASCT). Cryopreserved stem cell units (SCU) are expected to be used soon after harvesting for most purposes, but, in a number of cases, they remain stored for some time, creating an increasing load for SCU depositories. Disposal policies vary widely in each center, and the existing guidelines are insufficient.MethodsWe conducted a survey of seven Gruppo Italiano Trapianto di Midollo Osseo centers to investigate the outcome of SCU harvested from January 2005 to December 2009 for ASCT. The data from 1603 collections were gathered, for a total of 5822 SCU.ResultsIn our cohort, 79% of patients collected >5 × 106 CD34+ cells/kg, and 3.4% collected <2 × 106 CD34+ cells/kg. Up to 21% of all the patients and 42% of those with acute leukemia did not undergo reinfusion, and 37% of the cryopreserved SCU were excess, resulting from patients not reinfusing or partially reinfusing. Less than one-third of the excess SCU was disposed, and the major causes of disposal were death and, in a minority of cases, withdrawal of the indication for ASCT. In our analysis, very few first reinfusions occurred after 2 years, and those after 5 years were exceptional. Through the use of a multivariate analysis, we sought to identify the risk factors for collection non-use, independent of the centers' policies. Non-use of SCU was significantly associated with patients with acute leukemia, collections of <2 × 106 CD34/kg and lower age groups.ConclusionsThese data serve as a valid basis to support rational recommendations for cost-effective storage and disposal of SCU.  相似文献

Research into the pathophysiological mechanisms of human disease and the development of targeted therapies have been hindered by a lack of predictive disease models that can be experimentally manipulated in vitro. This review describes the current state of modelling human diseases with the use of human induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cell lines. To date, a variety of neurodegenerative diseases, haematopoietic disorders, metabolic conditions and cardiovascular pathologies have been captured in a Petri dish through reprogramming of patient cells into iPS cells followed by directed differentiation of disease-relevant cells and tissues. However, realizing the true promise of iPS cells for advancing our basic understanding of disease and ultimately providing novel cell-based therapies will require more refined protocols for generating the highly specialized cells affected by disease, coupled with strategies for drug discovery and cell transplantation.  相似文献

Three populations of myogenic cells were isolated from normal mouse skeletal muscle based on their adhesion characteristics and proliferation behaviors. Although two of these populations displayed satellite cell characteristics, a third population of long-time proliferating cells expressing hematopoietic stem cell markers was also identified. This third population comprises cells that retain their phenotype for more than 30 passages with normal karyotype and can differentiate into muscle, neural, and endothelial lineages both in vitro and in vivo. In contrast to the other two populations of myogenic cells, the transplantation of the long-time proliferating cells improved the efficiency of muscle regeneration and dystrophin delivery to dystrophic muscle. The long-time proliferating cells' ability to proliferate in vivo for an extended period of time, combined with their strong capacity for self-renewal, their multipotent differentiation, and their immune-privileged behavior, reveals, at least in part, the basis for the improvement of cell transplantation. Our results suggest that this novel population of muscle-derived stem cells will significantly improve muscle cell-mediated therapies.  相似文献

Liver stem/progenitor cells (LPCs) are defined as cells that supply two types of liver epithelial cells, hepatocytes and cholangiocytes, during development, cellular turnover, and regeneration. Hepatoblasts, which are fetal LPCs derived from endoderm stem cells, robustly proliferate and differentiate into hepatocytes and cholangiocytes during fetal life. Between mid-gestation and the neonatal period, some cholangiocytes function as LPCs. Although LPCs in adult livers can be enriched in cells positive for cholangiocyte markers, their tissue localization and functions in cellular turnover remain obscure. On the other hand, it is well known that liver regeneration under conditions suppressing hepatocyte proliferation is supported by LPCs, though their origin has not been clearly identified. Recently many groups took advantage of new techniques including prospective isolation of LPCs by fluorescence-activated cell sorting and genetic lineage tracing to facilitate our understanding of epithelial supply in normal and injured livers. Those works suggest that, in normal livers, the turnover of hepatocytes mostly depends on duplication of hepatocytes. It is also demonstrated that liver epithelial cells as well as LPCs have great plasticity and flexible differentiation capability to respond to various types of injuries by protecting or repairing liver tissues.  相似文献
