Research Article: Effective enhancement of the immunomodulatory capacity of canine adipose-derived mesenchymal stromal cells on colitis by priming with colon tissue from mice with colitis
Abstract:
Introduction: The therapeutic efficacy of mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) in inflammatory bowel disease is not completely known and is not consistent. Priming with inflammatory cytokines has been proposed to adapt MSCs to an inflammatory environment to have them ready to counteract it, but may have undesirable effects on MSCs, such as increased immunogenicity. In this study, we hypothesized that priming MSCs with inflamed intestinal tissue would more effectively enhance their therapeutic effect on intestinal inflammation.
