Human ES-derived MSCs correct TNF-α-mediated alterations in a blood-brain barrier model.

Fluids and barriers of the CNS | 2019

Immune cell trafficking into the CNS is considered to contribute to pathogenesis in MS and its animal model, EAE. Disruption of the blood-brain barrier (BBB) is a hallmark of these pathologies and a potential target of therapeutics. Human embryonic stem cell-derived mesenchymal stem/stromal cells (hES-MSCs) have shown superior therapeutic efficacy, compared to bone marrow-derived MSCs, in reducing clinical symptoms and neuropathology of EAE. However, it has not yet been reported whether hES-MSCs inhibit and/or repair the BBB damage associated with neuroinflammation that accompanies EAE.
