Abstract
Purpose: The development of enhanced therapeutic interventions
using human mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) for regenerative
medicine is a priority in osteoarthritis research. MSCs are a heterogeneous
cell population with immunomodulatory and anti-inflammatory
properties. We have identified a novel biomarker (CD317) that allows
the isolation of MSCs subpopulations with tissue regenerative properties
(Y201, CD317-) and non-differentiating MSCs with an enriched proinflammatory
transcriptional profile (Y202, CD317þ) that make up an
average of 9% of the total MSCs population. We investigated the
immunomodulatory function of these subpopulations to understand
their role in disease processes and potential impact on regenerative
therapies.
