Extracellular Matrix-Mimetic Peptide Scaffolds Prolonged the Hypothermic Preservation of Stem Cells for Storage and Transportation
ACS applied materials & interfaces(2023)
摘要
Encouraging advances in both regenerative medi-cine and tissue engineering with stem cells require a short-term preservation protocol to provide enough time for quality control or the transportation of cell products from manufacturing facilities to clinical destinations. The hypothermic preservation of stem cells under refrigerated conditions (2-8 degrees C) in their specific culture medium provides an alternative and low-cost method for cryopreservation or commercial preservation fluid for short-term storage. However, most stem cells are vulnerable to hypothermia, which might result in cell damage from the cooling process and the lack of extracellular matrix (ECM). Herein, we report a peptide scaffold cell-culture-medium additive for mimicking in vivo ECM to enhance the storage efficiency of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) under hypothermic preservation. Peptide scaffolds exhibit protective effects against hypothermic injury by maintaining the viability, proliferation, migration, and differentiation capabilities of cells. The mechanistic study showed that the peptide scaffold was conducive to maintain mitochondrial function by retaining mitochondrial respiration, mitochondrial membrane potential (Delta psi m), and mass to alleviate intracellular and mitochondrial reactive oxygen species (ROS) production. Moreover, the peptide scaffold also prolonged the survival and retained the multipotency of hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPCs) under hypothermic conditions. In conclusion, these results demonstrate a feasible and convenient preservation system for stem cells that has the potential to promote the clinical application of hematopoietic stem cell therapy.
