Multifaceted Optimization of MSC-Based Formulation upon Sodium Iodoacetate-Induced Osteoarthritis Models by Combining Advantageous HA/PG Hydrogel and Fluorescent Tracer

Owing to the boundedness of conventional remedies upon articular cartilage for self-rehabilitation and the incrementally senior citizens, the incidence of osteoarthritis (OA) is increasing worldwide. Empirical studies have revealed the advantageous and promising potentials of mesenchymal stem/stroma...

description Owing to the boundedness of conventional remedies upon articular cartilage for self-rehabilitation and the incrementally senior citizens, the incidence of osteoarthritis (OA) is increasing worldwide. Empirical studies have revealed the advantageous and promising potentials of mesenchymal stem/stromal cells (MSCs) on the refractory OA, whereas the deficiency of systematic and detailed exploration of MSC-based therapy largely hampers the large-scale applications in regenerative medicine. Herein, we initially utilized the monosodium iodoacetate- (MIA-) induced OA rabbit models and investigated the therapeutic effect of human umbilical cord-derived UC-MSCs at serial dose gradients with the splendid hyaluronic acid and/or propylene glycol hydrogels (HA, HA/PG), respectively. Afterwards, we turned to a dual-luciferase reporter tracing system and evaluated the spatiotemporal distribution and metabolokinetics of bifluorescence expressing UC-MSCs (BF-MSCs) in OA rats. Of the aforementioned trials, we verified that the combination of HA/PG and middle-dose MSCs (0.5×107 cells/ml) eventually manifested the optimal efficacy on OA rabbits. Furthermore, with the aid of the bioluminescence imaging (BLI) technology for dynamic in vitro and in vivo tracking, we intuitively delineated the spatiotemporal distribution and therapeutic process of BF-MSCs in OA rats, which substantially confirmed the reinforcement of HA/PG on BF-MSCs for OA treatment. Collectively, our data conformably demonstrated that the middle dose of UC-MSCs combined with HA/PG hydrogel was sufficient for optimal MSC-based formulation for blocking OA progression and promoting cartilage repair, which supplied overwhelming new references and enlightened MSC-based therapeutic strategies for cartilage defects.
