The therapeutic potential of induced pluripotent stem cells after stroke: evidence from rodent models.
Abstract Stroke is the second most common cause of death and the leading cause of disability in the world. About 30% of the people that are affected by stroke die within a year; 25% of the patients that survive stroke remain in need of care after a year. Therefore, stroke is a major burden for health care costs. The most common subtype is ischemic stroke. This type is characterized by a reduced and insufficient blood supply to a certain part of the brain. Despite the high prevalence of stroke, the currently used therapeutic interventions are limited. No therapies that aim to restore damaged neuronal tissue or to p...

iPS Cell Transplantation Increases Regeneration and Functional Recovery after Ischemic Stroke in Neonatal Rats
Abstract Limited treatments are available for perinatal/neonatal stroke. Induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) hold therapeutic promise for stroke treatment, but the benefits of iPSC transplantation in neonates are relatively unknown. We hypothesized that transplanted iPS cell‐derived neural progenitors (iPSC‐NPCs) would increase regeneration after stroke. Mouse pluripotent iPSCs were differentiated into neural progenitors using a retinoic acid protocol. Differentiated neural cells were characterized by using multiple criteria and assessments. Ischemic stroke was induced in postnatal day 7 (P7) rats by occluding the r...

Mesenchymal stem cells in the treatment of ischemic stroke: progress and possibilities.
Authors: Doeppner TR, Hermann DM Abstract Stroke is a major cause of death and long-term disability in industrialized countries, and the only causal therapy for stroke comprises recombinant tissue plasminogen activator(rt-PA)-mediated recanalization of the occluded vessel. New experimental strategies focus on neuroregenerative approaches, among which the application of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) has gained increasing attention. MSCs, like other stem cells, have the capacity of unlimited self-renewal giving rise to differentiated cells from various cell lineages. Bone marrow (BM)-derived MSCs are the most frequen...

Extracellular Vesicles Improve Post-Stroke Neuroregeneration and Prevent Postischemic Immunosuppression
Although the initial concepts of stem cell therapy aimed at replacing lost tissue, more recent evidence has suggested that stem and progenitor cells alike promote postischemic neurological recovery by secreted factors that restore the injured brain’s capacity to reshape. Specifically, extracellular vesicles (EVs) derived from stem cells such as exosomes have recently been suggested to mediate restorative stem cell effects. In order to define whether EVs indeed improve postischemic neurological impairment and brain remodeling, we systematically compared the effects of mesenchymal stem cell (MSC)-derived EVs (MSC-EVs) ...

Mitochondrial transplantation and immune response of human bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells for the Therapeutic of ischemic stroke
Curr Stem Cell Res Ther. 2023 May 5. doi: 10.2174/1574888X18666230505103407. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTIschemic stroke is the leading cause of death and disability worldwide, with increasing incidence and mortality, imposing a significant social and economic burden on patients and their families. However, cerebral vascular occlusion leads to acute loss of neurons and destruction of synaptic structures. The limited treatment options cannot adequately address intra-neuronal mitochondrial dysfunction due to stroke. Therefore, stem cell-derived mitochondria transplantation plays an important role in neuronal protection and...

Meta-Analysis: The Clinical Application of Autologous Adult Stem Cells in the Treatment of Stroke
CONCLUSION: Most of the trials were early phase studies that focused on safety rather than efficacy. Stem cells have demonstrated breakthrough results in the field of regenerative medicine. Therefore, study design could be improved in the future by enrolling a larger patient population and focusing more on localized delivery rather than intravenous transplantation. Trials should also introduce a more standardized method of analyzing and reporting clinical outcomes to achieve a better comparable outcome and possibly recognize the full potential that these cells have to offer.PMID:35002259 | PMC:PMC8721025 | DOI:10.2147/SCCAA.S344943
