Abstract
Objectives
Wound healing is a complex process with a sequence of restoring and inhibition events such as cell proliferation, differentiation, migration as well as adhesion. Mesenchymal stem cells (MSC) derived conditioned medium (CM) has potent therapeutic functions and promotes cell proliferation, anti-oxidant, immunosuppressive, and anti-apoptotic effects. The main aim of this research is to study the role of human umbilical cord-mesenchymal stem cells (UC-MSCs) derived CM in stimulating the proliferation of human keratinocytes (HaCaT).
Methods
Firstly, MSC were isolated from human umbilical cords (UC) and the cells were then cultured in proliferative medium. We prepared and collected the CM after 72 h. Morphological changes were observed after the treatment of HaCaT cells with CM. To validate the findings, proliferation rate, clonal efficiency and also gene expression studies were performed.
Results
Increased proliferation rate was observed and confirmed with the expression of Proliferating Cell Nuclear Antigen (PCNA) after treatment with HaCaT cells. Cell-cell strap formation was also observed when HaCaT cells were treated with CM for a period of 5–6 days which was confirmed by the increased expression of Collagen Type 1 Alpha 1 chain (Col1A1).
Conclusions
Our results from present study depicts that the secretory components in the CM might play a significant role by interacting with keratinocytes to promote proliferation and migration. Thus, the CM stimulates cellular proliferation, epithelialization and migration of skin cells which might be the future promising application in wound healing.
