Abstract (original English)

Background Transplantation of adipose-derived mesenchymal stromal cells (ASCs) or their insulin-producing derivatives holds promise for diabetes mellitus therapy due to their regenerative properties. However, the harsh microenvironment in type 2 diabetes (T2D) likely impairs autologous ASC efficacy. Aim This study investigated transcriptomic alterations and therapeutic efficacy of ASCs from T2D patients (dASCs) in experimental diabetes, compared to healthy donors (ndASCs), and evaluated whether inflammatory priming could enhance dASC functionality. Methods dASCs and ndASCs were characterized phenotypically and functionally. Differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were identified via microarray profiling of basal and IFN-γ/TNF-α-primed cells. miRNA-transcription factor (TF) coregulatory networks were constructed for key DEGs. In vivo, anti-hyperglycemic effects, islet regeneration, insulin expression, and local inflammation modulation were assessed in streptozotocin (STZ)-induced diabetic rats by transplanting dASCs, ndASCs, or IFN-γ-primed dASCs (p.dASCs). Results DEGs in dASCs were significantly enriched in inflammation, glycerolipid metabolism, cell adhesion, cytoskeleton remodeling, angiogenesis, and insulin or hypoxia-related responses. EGFR/ERBB2 signaling, with downstream Ras/MAPK and PI3K/AKT cascades, and endocrine resistance-related pathways were significantly overrepres
