Human gingiva tissue-derived MSC ameliorates immune-mediated bone marrow failure of aplastic anemia via suppression of Th1 and Th17 cells and enhancement of CD4+Foxp3+ regulatory T cells differentiation.

ABSTRACT: Accumulating evidence has revealed that human gingiva-derived mesenchymal stem cells (GMSCs) are emerging as a new line of mesenchymal stem cells and may have the potential to control or even treat autoimmune diseases through maintaining the balance between Th and Treg cells. Given that GMSCs have a robust immune regulatory function and regenerative ability, we investigated the effect of GMSCs on preventing T cell-mediated bone marrow failure (BMF) in a mouse model. We observed that GMSCs markedly improved mice survival and attenuated histological bone marrow (BM) damage. Moreover, we found GMSCs significantly reduced cell infiltration of CD8+ cells, Th1 and Th17 cells, whereas increased CD4+Foxp3+ regulatory T cells (Tregs) differentiation in lymph nodes. GMSCs also suppressed the levels
