Minor salivary gland stem cells: a comparative study of the biological properties under clinical-grade culture conditions
2023
Overview
Development of clinical-grade, cell preparations is central to cGMP (good manufacturing practice compliant) conditions. This study aimed to investigate the potential of two serum/xeno-free, cGMP (StemPro, StemMacs) culture media to maintain “stemness” of human minor salivary gland stem cell (mSG-SC) cultures compared to a complete culture medium (CCM). Overall, StemMacs resulted in higher proliferation rates after p.6 compared to the conventional serum-based medium, while StemPro showed substantial delays in cell proliferation after p.9. The mSG-SCs cultures exhibited two distinct cell populations at early passages a mesenchymal subpopulation and an epithelial-like subpopulation. Expression of several markers (CD146, STRO-1, SSEA-4, CD105, CD106, CD34, K 7/8, K14, K18) variably decreased with prolonged passaging (all three media). The percentage of SA-β-gal positive cells was initially higher for StemMacs compared to StemPro/CCM and increased with prolonged passaging in all cases. The telomere fragment length decreased with prolonged passaging in all three media but more pronouncedly for the CCM. Expansion under serum-free conditions caused pronounced upregulation of ALP and BMP-2, with parallel complete elimination of the baseline expressions of LPL (all three media) and ACAN (serum-free media), therefore, showing a preferential shift of the mSG-SCs towards osteogenic phenotypes. Finally, several markers (Nanog, SOX-2, PDX-1, OTX2, GSC, HCG) decreased with prolonged culture, indicating successive loss of “stemness”. Based on the findings, it seems that StemPro preserve stemness of the mSG-SCs after prolonged culture. Nevertheless, there is still a vacant role for the ideal development of clinical-grade culture conditions.
