Investigating the effect of mesenchymal stem cells on the rate of clinical and pathological improvement of asthmatic lung in mouse model

Asthma is a pulmonary disease and its pathophysiology includes inflammation, obstruction, edema of the airways, and mucus secretions in the airways. Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are self-renewal that use the therapeutic potential of these cells can be applied as treatments of asthma. In this study, the effect of Mesenchyme stem cells on asthma was investigated. MSCs were administrated for asthmatic mice and then, percentage of eosinophils in blood and bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF), levels of interleukine (IL) -4 and Immunoglubolin (Ig)E were measured. Also histopathological study of lung tissue was done. MSCs administration could control percentage of eosinophils in blood and BALF, levels of IgE and IL -4, eosinophilic inflammation, mucin realizing and goblet cell hyper-plasia. Administration of MSCs as treatment of asthma can be a useful and applicable therapy in control of asthma symptoms. (c) 2023, The Japanese Society for Regenerative Medicine.
