Официальное название
Contrasting Chronic Inflammation and Neurodegeneration Using the Human Amniotic Mesenchymal Cell Secretome as an Innovative Therapeutic Strategy
Обзор
Neurodegenerative diseases are debilitating conditions characterized by chronic inflammation, leading to dysfunction of both the non-neuronal cellular components of the central nervous system and peripheral blood immune cells. Thus, it is crucial to develop an innovative therapeutic strategy that not only effectively contrast neurodegeneration but also aims to reduce inflammation. The overall aim of the study is to provide a preclinical in vitro demonstration of the immunomodulatory and pro-regenerative potential of the human amniotic mesenchymal stromal cell (hAMSC) secretome in counteracting neurodegeneration. This potential will be evaluated in three-dimensional in vitro models of neurodegenerative diseases, such as amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and chronic demyelinating disease (multiple sclerosis - MS). To this end, the study includes sample collection from patients without pharmacological treatment and without medical devices. Patients diagnosed with ALS, patients diagnosed with MS, and healthy volunteers will be recruited to collect blood samples and skin biopsies. Patient-specific and control organoid platforms, mimicking cellular heterogeneity and tridimensional interactions within the central nervous system including the inflammatory compartment, will be developed to be used as a valuable tool to investigate the in vitro efficacy of the hAMSC secretome.
Вмешательства
- Другое Venous blood draw and skin biopsy
The skin tissue will be used to isolate fibroblasts, which will then be reprogrammed into induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs). These iPSCs will be differentiated to develop patient-specific and control organoids. The blood samples will be used to isolate peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) to study the contribution of inflammation in the in vitro models developed.
