TLDR
Locally injected eASCs appear to be a simple, safe, and beneficial therapy for perianal fistula in Crohn’s disease patients, and additional studies are needed to further confirm the efficacy of the eASC.
Abstract
Purpose The management of perianal fistula in patients with Crohn’s disease is an extremely challenging medical problem as many fistulas do not respond to available treatments The objectives were to assess the safety and efficacy of a suspension of expanded adipose-derived allogeneic mesenchymal stem cells (eASCs) for the treatment of complex perianal fistula in Crohn’s disease

Treatment of acute respiratory distress syndrome with allogeneic adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells: a randomized, placebo-controlled pilot study

TL;DR: Administration of allogeneic adipose-derived MSCs appears to be safe and feasible in the treatment of ARDS, and further optimization of this strategy will probably be required to reach the goal of reduced alveolar epithelial injury in ARDS.

Allogeneic Mesenchymal Stem Cells: Agents of Immune Modulation

TL;DR: This review describes recent advances in understanding the mechanistic basis of mesenchymal stromal or stem cells (MSC) interaction with innate immunity and particular emphasis is placed on the effect of Toll‐like receptor signalling on MSC.

Immunoregulatory Function of Mesenchymal Stem Cells

TL;DR: Mesenchymal stem cells (MSC) interact with hematopoietic stem cells and support their growth and differentiation in the bone marrow as mentioned in this paper, which is a promising tool for tissue repairs.

Adult stem cells in the treatment of autoimmune diseases

TL;DR: Results from in vitro experiments, animal models and early human experience in severe acute graft vs host disease suggest that multipotent mesenchymal stromal cells obtained from the bone marrow and expanded ex vivo, may exert a clinically useful immunomodulatory effect.

Human Adipose-Derived Stem Cells Impair Natural Killer Cell Function and Exhibit Low Susceptibility to Natural Killer-Mediated Lysis

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that hASCs and hBM-MSCs can modulate NK cells through the action of soluble factors such as indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase, and suggest that for an adoptive cell therapy based on the transfer of allogeneic h ASCs, the NK-hASCs crosstalk will not result in an immediate recognition of the transferred cells.

Human mesenchymal stem cell transformation is associated with a mesenchymal-epithelial transition.

TL;DR: The hypothesis that some carcinomas are derived from mesenchymal rather than from epithelial precursors is supported, suggesting a dedifferentiation process was associated with the mesenchyal stem cell (MSC) transformation.
