Postinfarction cellular regeneration therapy of the heart muscle

Kurtova A.V., Zueva E.E., Nemkov A.S.

Abstract

Cellular regeneration therapy is a promising new way to treat diseases of the cardiovascular system. This review examines various experimental and clinical approaches to cell regeneration therapy, such as: local cytokine therapy, stimulation of the release of resident bone marrow stem cells and stem cell transplantation itself. The paper presents a detailed analysis of various types of donor cells used for cellular cardiomyoplasty in experimental and clinical studies. Particular attention is paid to the discussion of methods of cell delivery to the area of the damaged myocardium and methods of graft imaging.

Prospects for the use of gene and cell therapy for the treatment of muscular dystrophy

Sukach A.N.

Abstract

The review discusses modern approaches to the treatment of muscular dystrophy, a heterogeneous group of neuromuscular diseases that manifest themselves as progressive muscle weakness, as well as their partial loss, which in many cases leads to death. There are currently no effective medical methods for the treatment of dystrophies. However, there are several investigated therapeutic options for the treatment of muscular dystrophy, including gene therapy and transplantation of myogenic progenitor cells - cell therapy. The article discusses the achievements and difficulties on the way of introducing gene therapy into the clinical practice of treatment of muscular dystrophy. Special attention is paid to cell therapy, a promising direction of regenerative medicine, which gives hope for the cure of many previously incurable hereditary and acquired diseases. Potential sources of human somatic and embryonic stem/progenitor cells that can be used both as objects of application of genetic engineering methods and for cell therapy of muscular dystrophy are discussed. The problems that stand in the way of the successful introduction into clinical practice of the treatment of muscular dystrophy of human stem/progenitor cells are discussed.

Bone marrow transplantation to mice with an experimental model of tuberculosis

Isaev A.A., Pospelov L.E., Bocharova I.V., Hegert V.Y., Stankov D.S., Prikhodko A.V., Avdienko V.G., Pospelov A.L.

Abstract

The effectiveness of the use of bone marrow cells (CMC) in the treatment of experimental tuberculosis was investigated. It was shown that transplantation of allogeneic bone marrow cells from AKR mice resistant to tuberculosis to C57BL/6 mice sensitive to tuberculosis and infected with mycobacterium strain H37Rv significantly prolonged the life of infected experimental animals and reduced the number of mycobacteria seeded from organs compared with untreated animals. The study of humoral immunity showed that the introduction of allogeneic bone marrow cells leads to nonspecific polyisotypic stimulation of anti-tuberculosis antibodies, which is important in creating a protective humoral background. There was also a pronounced production of IgG2a antibodies in comparison with the level of IgG1 antibodies during therapy with bone marrow cells, which indicates the presence of a Tb1 response, which is clearly protective in tuberculosis. A high level of IgG2a antibodies correlated with a high level of a specific cellular immune response, assessed by a delayed-type hypersensitivity reaction (HRT).

Are oval cells supposed to be liver stem cells or hepatoblasts?

Kiyasov А.P., Gumerova A.A., Titova M.A.

Abstract

The aim of the work is to study the patterns of expression of oval cell markers during prenatal histogenesis of rat and human liver, as well as in human hepatocytes in vitro. The liver of rats was obtained at various gestation periods and during the first month after birth. Human embryos and fetuses are obtained as a result of legal medical abortions. The material was fixed and poured into paraffin according to the standard procedure or cryostatic sections were prepared, then stained with immunohistochemical indirect immunoperoxidase and streptavidin-biotin methods using commercial monoclonal antibodies to cytokeratins-7, -8, -18, -19. Gamma-glutamyl-transpeptidase was detected histochemically. The results of the studies showed that rat and human hepatoblasts express cytokeratin-19 and gamma-glutamyltrans-peptidase, whereas cholangiocytes express cytokeratin-7 (and only since the beginning of the formation of intrahepatic bile ducts). Moreover, human hepatocytes under cultivation begin to express cytokeratin-19 again. The data obtained show that the markers of oval cells (cytokeratin-19 and gamma-glutamyltranspeptidase) are markers of differentiating hepatocytes, which does not allow identifying oval cells with liver stem cells.

The effect of severe polytrauma on the migration of hematopoietic stem cells in mice

Alexandrov V.N., Sergeev V.S.

Abstract

It has been shown that hematopoietic stem cells (SCCS) are involved in the physiological and reparative regeneration of non-hematopoietic tissues and organs through transdifferentiation and/or cell fusion. In this regard, it seems interesting to evaluate the kinetics of bone marrow CCM in severe trauma. Three experimental models were used in the study: injury to mice followed by uneven irradiation in lethal doses with 1/2 shin screening (A), irradiation of mice in lethal doses followed by transplantation of bone marrow cells from injured mice (B), injury to mice followed by irradiation in sublethal doses (C). The migration of CCM was assessed by registering hematopoietic colonies growing on the spleen of irradiated mice from endo- or exogenous SCCS. In experimental models A and B, it was shown that a significantly larger number of endocolonies are formed in the spleens of injured mice in comparison with mice of control groups. In the experimental model B, it was shown that the bone marrow of injured mice contains a significantly smaller number of CCM capable of migration. Based on the results obtained, it was concluded that severe polytrauma induces CCM migration in mice.

Discussion and general theoretical works

Lymphocytic control of hematopoietic stem cell differentiation

Manko V.M., Petrov R.V.

Abstract

Nowadays, hundreds of experimental and clinical studies are devoted to the problems of stem cells [SC], both embryonic and tissue origin. Interest in this arose in connection with the comprehension and the possibility of reproducing two main qualities of SC: the ability to reproduce themselves for a long time and their multipotency, i.e. the ability to differentiate into any cell of the body. The first quality makes it possible to accumulate SC in culture. Secondly, it inspires with its allure the treatment of a very wide range of diseases, injuries, heart attacks, nervous and endocrine disorders, including diabetes. Tissue cloning removes all incompatibility problems during transplants.
