Abstract

Abstract: Diabetes is a complex metabolic disease with a high global prevalence. The health and quality of life of patients with diabetes are threatened by many complications, including diabetic foot ulcers, diabetic kidney diseases, diabetic retinopathy, and diabetic peripheral neuropathy. The application of mesenchymal stem/stromal cells (MSCs) in cell therapies has been recognized as a potential treatment for diabetes and its complications. MSCs were originally thought to exert biological effects exclusively by differentiating and replacing specific impaired cells. However, the paracrine function of factors secreted by MSCs may exert additional protective effects. MSCs secrete multiple compounds, including proteins, such as growth factors, chemokines, and other cytokines; nucleic acids, such as miRNAs; and lipids, extracellular vesicles (EVs), and exosomes (Exos). Collectively, these secreted compounds are called the MSC secretome, and usage of these chemicals in cell-free therapies may provide stronger effects with greater safety and convenience. Recent studies have demonstrated positive effects of the MSC secretome, including improved insulin sensitivity, reduced inflammation, decreased endoplasmic reticulum stress, enhanced M2 polarization of macrophages, and increased angiogenesis and autophagy; however, the mechanisms leading to these effects are not fully understood. This review summarizes the current research regarding the secretome derived from MSCs, including efforts to quantify effectiveness and uncover potential molecular mechanisms in the treatment of diabetes and related disorders. In addition, limitations and challenges are also discussed so as to facilitate applications of the MSC secretome as a cell-free therapy for diabetes and its complications.
