Abstract

Aim: Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are pluripotent cells with significant therapeutic potential. The objective of this study was to examine the inflammatory profile of MSCs cultured under different conditions. Methods: MSCs were cultured by three strategies: seeding on an extracellular matrix (ECM), spheroids in static culture and spheroids in a bioreactor. Paracrine factors and CD206, a marker of M2 macrophage phenotype, were measured. Results: MSCs grown as spheroids in a bioreactor produced more IL-6 and IL-8 (p < 0.05). Supernatant collected from spheroids under both culture conditions increased the M2 macrophage phenotype almost twofold. Conclusion: Results indicate that the inflammatory profile of the supernatant collected from MSCs can be modified through culture conditions which has impacts for the future of regenerative medicine.
