Mesenchymal stem cell preparation for treating arthritis and preparation method thereof
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of biological medicines, and particularly relates to a mesenchymal stem cell preparation for treating arthritis and a preparation method thereof.
Background
Arthritis generally refers to inflammatory diseases caused by inflammation, infection, degeneration, trauma or other factors, and can be divided into tens of kinds. Arthritis patients in China are more than 1 hundred million, and the number of the arthritis patients is increasing continuously. The clinical manifestations are red, swelling, heat, pain, dysfunction and joint deformity of joints, and severe patients cause joint disability and affect the life quality of patients. According to statistics, half of people over 50 years old in China suffer from osteoarthritis, and 90% of women and 80% of men suffer from osteoarthritis in people over 65 years old. The prevalence rate of China is 0.34-0.36%, and the life of serious people is shortened by about 10-15 years.
Joint replacement is a method of replacing a painful joint that has lost joint function with an artificially produced joint, and is generally applied to severe osteonecrosis, persons who cannot be restored by comminuted fracture dislocation, painful and dyskinetic osteoarthropathy, rheumatoid arthritis that is stiff or difficult to move, bone tumors, and the like. Joint replacement has complications such as prosthesis loosening, wear or fracture, deep infection, foreign body reaction, and calcification of soft tissues that impede mobility.
The mesenchymal stem cells are cells with self-renewal and multidirectional differentiation capabilities, and are easily obtained and widely available. Can be differentiated into various tissues such as bone, cartilage, fat and the like, has immunoregulation function and has great potential for regenerative medicine and autoimmune diseases. The mesenchymal stem cells are a new treatment mode for treating osteoarthritis, and a large number of preclinical researches prove that the mesenchymal stem cells have good effects on treating rheumatoid arthritis. The Chinese patent with application number of 201010152461.2 discloses a cell injection for treating bone injury and a preparation method thereof, wherein the injection is a compound consisting of mesenchymal stem cells from autologous bone marrow, temperature-sensitive gel and effective nutritional factors extracted by autologous blood separation. However, the composite biocompatible polymer or temperature-sensitive gel described in the application document forms a semisolid or gel after being implanted into a body, which is not beneficial to the dispersion of mesenchymal stem cells in a joint cavity, and prevents the application of the process of improving the joint cavity microenvironment through the immune regulation function of the stem cells in cells; the mesenchymal stem cells or the chondrocytes only contain single cell types, and the mesenchymal stem cells are only applied to have paracrine and immune regulation functions, but the tissue repair is realized by in-vivo induced differentiation, so the treatment time is long; the induced mesenchymal stem cells are used for treatment, only have the function of tissue repair, do not have the function of anti-inflammatory factor secretion, and are not beneficial to the repair of arthritis.
Disclosure of Invention
Aiming at the problems that the arthritis treatment preparation or method in the prior art has single cell type, long treatment time, can not fully exert the biology of the mesenchymal stem cells, is not beneficial to the recovery of arthritis and the like, the invention provides the mesenchymal stem cell preparation for treating the arthritis and the preparation method thereof.
In order to realize the purpose of the invention, the invention is realized by adopting the following technical scheme:
a mesenchymal stem cell preparation for treating arthritis comprises mesenchymal stem cells, metformin-pretreated mesenchymal stem cells, platelet-rich plasma and a dispersion medium.
Metformin promotes osteoblast activity, increases mineral precipitation, and simultaneously inhibits osteoclast activity and prevents bone mass reduction. Metformin induces the growth and differentiation of osteoblast-like cell lines (UMR 106, MC3T 3) with the ability to increase mineralization of the extracellular matrix. Furthermore, metformin also has the effects of promoting the differentiation of bone marrow stromal cells to osteoblasts and inhibiting the differentiation to adipocytes. The metformin is used for pretreating the mesenchymal stem cells, so that the osteogenesis capacity of the mesenchymal stem cells can be improved, and the tissue repair is facilitated.
The platelet-rich plasma can maintain the viability of the mesenchymal stem cells in the joint cavity and prolong the anti-inflammatory action time of the mesenchymal stem cells. In addition, platelet-rich plasma contains a large amount of growth factors such as platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF), transforming growth factor beta (TGF-beta), insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1) and other rich growth factors, and can promote the regeneration of articular cartilage.
Preferably, the mesenchymal stem cells are bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells, umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells, adipose mesenchymal stem cells and dental pulp mesenchymal stem cells, and the final cell concentration of the mesenchymal stem cell preparation is 106~108one/mL.
Preferably, the ratio of the mesenchymal stem cells to the metformin-pretreated mesenchymal stem cells is 1: 1-4: 1.
Preferably, the concentration of platelets in the platelet-rich plasma is 2-3 × 106one/uL.
Preferably, the volume ratio of the platelet-rich plasma to the dispersion medium is 1: 1-2: 1.

The human serum albumin and the compound amino acid adopted by the invention are all components of clinical injection, can provide nutrition for cells and are beneficial to metabolism of the cells. The addition of vitamin C can maintain the activity of various peroxidases and is also beneficial to the maintenance of cell metabolism and activity. The addition of the low-molecular heparin ensures that cells maintain a good cell dispersion state in the preservation process, reduces the phenomena of intercellular adhesion agglomeration and cell wall adhesion, reduces the risk of intravascular cell agglomeration embolism possibly occurring during clinical cell infusion, and simultaneously reduces cell loss caused by cell aggregation and filtration by an infusion filter, and the addition of trace heparin does not cause adverse reactions such as clinical bleeding. The compound electrolyte solution can maintain the osmotic pressure of cells and is beneficial to the survival of the cells.
