Comparative Study of the Protective and Neurotrophic Effects of Neuronal and Glial Progenitor Cells-Derived Conditioned Media in a Model of Glutamate Toxicity In Vitro.

ABSTRACT: Cell therapy represents a promising approach to the treatment of neurological diseases, offering potential benefits not only by cell replacement but also through paracrine secretory activities. However, this approach includes a number of limiting factors, primarily related to safety. The use of conditioned stem cell media can serve as an equivalent to cell therapy while avoiding its disadvantages. The present study was a comparative investigation of the antioxidant, neuroprotective and neurotrophic effects of conditioned media obtained from neuronal and glial progenitor cells (NPC-CM and GPC-CM) on the PC12 cell line in vitro. Neuronal and glial progenitor cells were obtained from iPSCs by directed differentiation using small molecules. GPC-CM reduced apoptosis, ROS levels and increased vi
