iPSC-Derived MSCs Are a Distinct Entity of MSCs with Higher Therapeutic Potential than Their Donor-Matched Parental MSCs

Mesenchymal stromal cells derived from induced pluripotent stem cells (iMSCs) have been proposed as alternative sources of primary MSCs with various advantages for cell therapeutic trials. However, precise evaluation of the differences between iMSCs and primary MSCs is lacking due to individual vari...

Sumario:Mesenchymal stromal cells derived from induced pluripotent stem cells (iMSCs) have been proposed as alternative sources of primary MSCs with various advantages for cell therapeutic trials. However, precise evaluation of the differences between iMSCs and primary MSCs is lacking due to individual variations in the donor cells, which obscure direct comparisons between the two. In this study, we generated donor-matched iMSCs from individual bone marrow-derived MSCs and directly compared their cell-autonomous and paracrine therapeutic effects. We found that the transition from primary MSCs to iMSCs is accompanied by a functional shift towards higher proliferative activity, with variations in differentiation potential in a donor cell-dependent manner. The transition from MSCs to iMSCs was associated with common changes in transcriptomic and proteomic profiles beyond the variations of their individual donors, revealing expression patterns unique for the iMSCs. These iMSC-specific patterns were characterized by a shift in cell fate towards a pericyte-like state and enhanced secretion of paracrine cytokine/growth factors. Accordingly, iMSCs exhibited higher support for the self-renewing expansion of primitive hematopoietic progenitors and more potent immune suppression of allogenic immune responses than MSCs. Our study suggests that iMSCs represent a separate entity of MSCs with unique therapeutic potential distinct from their parental MSCs, but points to the need for iMSC characterization in the individual basis.
