Immunomodulatory effects of primed amniotic fluid-derived mesenchymal stem/stromal cells with IFN-γ from unexplained recurrent miscarriage sources.

ABSTRACT: The immunomodulatory properties of mesenchymal stem/stromal cells (MSCs) are strongly influenced by IFN-γ priming and may vary depending on their tissue of origin. This study investigates whether the immunoregulatory responses of human amniotic fluid-derived MSCs (hAF-MSCs) to IFN-γ are altered when derived from individuals with unexplained recurrent pregnancy loss (RPL). We analyzed 10 well-characterized hAF-MSC clones, equally divided into non-RPL and RPL groups, to assess IFN-γ-induced expression of immunomodulatory genes. Additionally, we evaluated the paracrine effects of MSC-conditioned medium on T regulatory (Treg) cell induction and macrophage polarization. Significant differences were observed between the two groups in the expression of immunomodulatory markers following IFN-γ pri
