Abstract (original English)

The objective of this study was to define the effects of osteoarthritic (OA) milieu on good manufactured practice-adipose-derived mesenchymal stromal cells (GMP-ASC) that are commonly utilized in cell therapies. Two different OA milieu: OA synovial fluid (SF) and OA-conditioned medium (CM) from synoviocytes were used to treat GMP-ASC both in normoxia or hypoxia. GMP-ASC were tested for cell migration, proliferation, cytokine receptors expression (CXCR1, CXCR2, CXCR3, CXCR4, CXCR7, CCR1, CCR2, CCR3, CCR5, IL6R), and cytokines (CXCL8/IL8, CXCL10/IP10, CXCL12/SDF-1, CCL2/MCP1, CCL3/MIP1α, CCL4/MIP1β, CCL5/RANTES, IL6) release. Healthy SF was used as controls. We demonstrated that GMP-ASC show an increase in proliferation, migration, and modulation of CXCR1, CXCR3, CCR1, and CCR5 receptors in hypoxic condition. Moreover, GMP-ASC migration increased 15-fold when treated either with OA-SF or OA-CM compared with healthy SF both in normoxia and hypoxia. GMP-ASC treated in both OA milieu showed an increase in CXCR3, CCR3, and IL6R and a decrease in CCR1 and CCR2 receptors. In OA-SF, we detected higher amount of CXCL10/IP10 than in OA-CM, while CCL2/MCP1 and CCL4/MIP1β were higher in OA-CM compared with OA-SF. CXCL10/IP10 was the only chemokine of the OA milieu, which was down-modulated after treatment with GMP-ASC. In conclusion, we demonstrated specific effects of OA milieu on both GMP
