Analysis of approaches to increase the efficacy of cell therapy based on mesenchymal stromal cells

Abstract

The review considers the main stages of isolating, processing and clinical use of human mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs). They included: donor selection, selection of the source of MSCs, methods of isolation of cellular suspension from tissue, culturing in vitro for cell biomass propagation, priming of the resulting cell product, timing and ways of its clinical application, selection of the recipient of MSCs. The analysis of the stages of MSCs preparation and conditions for their use was carried out from the position of the influence on the final therapeutic effect of cell therapy in patients (or experimental animals - in preclinical studies). The optimal parameters of work with MSCs at each stage, the possibility to improve their quality / biological activity in order to increase their therapeutic efficacy were determined. The analysis and ways of avoiding the influence of adverse factors associated with the manufacturing and use of MSCs on the effectiveness of cell therapy in patients were given.
