Abstract (original English)

Aging leads to a decline in stem cell activity by reducing the repopulation rate and paracrine potential, ultimately diminishing efficacy in vivo. TNF-α can exert inflammatory and cell death actions via Erk by binding to TNFR-1, and survival and tissue repair actions via Akt by binding to TNFR-2. Aged cells are reported to have insufficient expression of TNFR-2, indicating that aged adipose-derived stem cells (ADSCs-E) lack the ability for cell survival and immune control compared to young ADSCs (ADSCs-Y). This study aims to assess the preconditioning effect of SP on the response of ADSCs-E to inflammation. ADSCs-E were treated with SP and then exposed to a high dose of TNF-α for 24 h. Consequently, ADSC-E exhibited weaker viability and lower TNFR2 levels compared to ADSC-Y. In response to TNF-α, the difference in TNFR2 expression became more pronounced in ADSC-E and ADSC-Y. Moreover, ADSC-E showed a severe deficiency in proliferation and paracrine activity. However, preconditioning with SP significantly enhanced the viability of ADSCs-E and also restored TNFR2 expression and paracrine potential, similar to ADSC-Y under inflammatory conditions. Our findings support the idea that preconditioning with SP has the potential to restore the cellular function of senescent stem cells before transplantation.
