چکیده

In the present study, we investigated the therapeutic potential of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) in a rat acute renal failure (ARF) model and explored the possible in vivo and in vitro mechanisms of action. Rat and human MSCs were isolated from bone marrow. After being co-cultured with injured kidney tissues in trans-well dishes in vitro, the rat MSCs became rounded renal tubular epithelial-like cells, and highly expressed renal markers such as cytokeratin 18 (CK18) and aquaporin-1 (AQP1). Human MSCs were infused into rats with ARF, and techniques of microscopy, histology, PCR, RT-PCR and fluorescence in situ hybridization were used to characterize the MSCs after transplantation. We found that there were more exogenous human MSCs localized to injured kidney tissues. The kidney recovery rate in the transplanted MSC group was higher than in the control group. Genes associated with human renal tubular epithelial cells such as AQP1 and parathyroid hormone receptor 1 were detected. These findings suggest that the injured kidney tissue induced rat and human MSCs to differentiate into renal tubular epithelial-like cells in vitro and in vivo, and exogenous human MSCs can home specifically to injured regions and efficiently cure rat ARF. These results demonstrate that cell therapy has potential as a novel intervention in ARF.

The regenerative potential of stem cells in acute renal failure.

Adult stem cells have been characterized in several tissues as a subpopulation of cells able to maintain. generate, and replace terminally differentiated cells in response to physiological cell turnover or tissue injury. Little is known regarding the presence of stem cells in the adult kidney but it is documented that under certain conditions, such as the recovery from acute injury, the kidney ...

Harvesting of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells from live rats and the in vitro differentiation of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells into neuron-like cells

In the bone marrow, there are certain populations of stem cell sources with the capacity to differentiate into several different types of cells. Ideally, cell transplants would be readily obtainable, easy to expand and bank, and capable of surviving for sufficient periods of time. Bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BM-MSCs) possess all of these characteristics. One of the most important benefi...
