[ 1 ] - Immunoregulatory impact of human mesenchymal-conditioned media and mesenchymal derived exosomes on monocytes

Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are well known due to their immunomodulatory effect, but the exact mechanisms have not been defined. Several studies demonstrated that the exerted immunoregulatory effect of these cells could be mediated by paracrine factors to illustrate, cytokines, chemokine, and among which, extracellular vesicles are one of them to play a crucial role. Moreover, it is assumed t...

[ 2 ] - Activity of Dipeptidyl Peptidase-IV/CD26 and Aminopeptidase N/CD13 in Secretome of Mesenchymal Stem Cells after Treatment with LPS and PMA

Background: Emerging evidence suggests that secretome of mesenchymal stem cells has many anti-inflammatory and regenerative properties, which makes it a suitable candidate for the treatment of autoimmune and degenerative diseases. Dipeptidyl Peptidase-IV (DPP-IV)/CD26 and Aminopeptidase N (APN)/CD13 are ubiquitous ecto-enzymes which can digest various substrates including some ...
