Abstract (original English)
The therapeutic potential of the conditioned medium (CM) derived from MSCs (mesenchymal stem/stromal cells) in disparate medical fields, from immunology to orthopedics, has been widely suggested by in vitro and in vivo evidences. Prior to MSC-CM use in clinical applications, appropriate quality controls are needed in order to assess its reproducibility. Here, we evaluated different CM characteristics, including general features and precise protein and lipid concentrations, in 3 representative samples from adipose-derived MSCs (ASCs). In details, we first investigated the size and distribution of the contained extracellular vesicles (EVs), lipid bilayer-delimited particles whose pivotal role in intercellular communication has been extensively demonstrated. Then, we acquired Raman signatures, providing an overlook of ASC-CM composition in terms of proteins, lipids, and nucleic acids. At last, we analyzed a panel of 200 molecules including chemokines, cytokines, receptors, and inflammatory and growth factors and searched for 32 lipids involved in cell signalling and inflammation. All ASC-CM contained a homogeneous and relevant number of EVs (1.0 × 10 9 ± 1.1 × 10 8 particles per million donor ASCs) with a mean size of 190 ± 5.2 nm, suggesting the appropriateness of the method for EV retaining and concentration. Furthermore, also Raman spectra confirmed a high homogeneity among sam
