Abstract (original English)

The objective of the current study was to examine the antimicrobial, anti-adhesion, and anti-invasion properties of various concentrations of condition media obtained from adipose mesenchymal stem cells (AD-MSCs CM) against Shigella flexneri (S. flexneri). AD-MSCs characterization and antimicrobial assay were performed using flow cytometry and microdilution by colony counting, respectively. For evaluating adhesion and invasion, Caco-2 cells were infected by S. flexneri at three different multiplicities of infection (MOIs of 1, 10, and 50) and then treated with DMEM medium and AD-MSCs CM. The inhibitory effect of AD-MSCs CM was assessed after 24 and 48 h of treatment by CFU (colony-forming unit) counting. A total of 84, 65, and 56% reduction in the adhesion rate of S. flexneri to Caco-2 cells treated with AD-MSCs CM were observed at MOIs of 1, 10, and 50, respectively. While S. flexneri at MOI:1 had no invasive effect on Caco-2 cells, convincing invasion was detected at MOIs of 10 and 50, showing a significant decrease following treatment with AD-MSCs CM. The current study results open new insights into AD-MSCs CM as a new non-antibiotic therapeutic candidate for S. flexneri infections.
