Paracrine Mechanisms of Mesenchymal Stromal Cells in Angiogenesis by Selma Maacha, Heba Sidahmed, Shana Jacob, Giusy Gentilcore, Rita Calzone, Jean-Charles Grivel, Chiara Cugno

“…The secretome is a composite product secreted by MSC in vitro (in conditioned medium) and in vivo (in the extracellular milieu), consisting of a protein soluble fraction (mostly growth factors and cytokines) and a vesicular component, extracellular vesicles (EVs), which transfer proteins, lipids, and genetic material. MSC-derived secretome differs based on the tissue from which the MSCs are isolated and under specific conditions (e.g., preconditioning or priming) suggesting that clinical applications should be tailored by choosing the tissue of origin and a priming regimen to specifically correct a given pathology. …”

Among the frequently reported quality indicators (in five or more studies), the following have a median proportion of study participants achieving that quality indicator exceeding 50%: monitoring of kidney markers (Scr/eGFR), use of medications (ACEIs/ARBs, avoiding non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs)), management of blood pressure (with a target of ≤140/90, or without specific targets), and monitoring for glycated hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c)). …”
