Abstract (original English)

Canine elbow dysplasia is a common cause of forelimb lameness in dogs and can lead to development of osteoarthritis (OA). A potential alternative to pain management is the use of a safe cell-free based therapy through trophic and paracrine factors of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs). The aim of study was to identify the profile of selected mediators of potential clinical relevance in synovial fluid (SF) samples of dogs with elbow OA and analyse the range of motion (ROM) before and after cell-free MSCs-based treatment. In this study, conditioned medium from allogeneic canine adipose tissue - derived MSC (CM-AD-MSC) was prepared and administered into both elbow joints with OA in six Labrador retriever dogs (n = 6) on day 0 and 14 without creating a control group with a placebo. The SF of the elbow joints was analysed for the presence of several biomolecules (IL-6, IL-10, IL-8, IL-2, IL-12, TNF-αIFN-γ, MMP-3TIMP-1) before and after intraarticular applications of CM-AD-MSC. Kinematic analysis was used to assess the clinical effect of CM-AD-MSC. Analyses of SF and ROM were performed on days 0, 14 and 42. Concentration levels of MMP-3, TIMP-1, IL-6 and TNF-α in SF showed significant differences before and after the treatment (P < .05). There was a significant improvement in ROM between day 0 and 42 (P < .001). No severe adverse events were observed during the study. Results support the

What this study does not prove

  • This study does not prove SVF is an approved treatment or a replacement for standard care.

Evidence level

Several human studies exist, but sample sizes, methodology, or follow-up remain limited, so conclusions are not firm.
