Proteomic profiling of iPSC and tissue-derived MSC secretomes reveal a global signature of inflammatory licensing by Margeaux Hodgson-Garms, Matthew J. Moore, Mikaël M. Martino, Kilian Kelly, Jessica E. Frith

“…Understanding these differences is essential to define the mechanisms of MSC-based tissue repair and optimise cell therapies. This study analysed the secretomes of bone-marrow (BM.MSCs), umbilical-cord (UC.MSCs), adipose-tissue (AT.MSCs) and clinical/commercial-grade induced pluripotent stem cell-derived MSCs (iMSCs), under resting and inflammatory licenced conditions. iMSCs recapitulated the inflammatory licensing process, validating their comparability to tissue-derived MSCs. …”

Comparing Circadian Dynamics in Primary Derived Stem Cells from Different Sources of Human Adult Tissue by Eve H. Rogers, Sandra A. Fawcett, Vanja Pekovic-Vaughan, John A. Hunt

“…The more primitive dental pulp-derived stem cells did not respond as well to the chemical synchronisation but showed temporal clock gene oscillations following rhythmic mechanical stretch, suggesting that incorporating temporal circadian information of different human adult stem cells will have profound implications in optimising tissue engineering approaches and stem cell therapies.…”
