Mesenchymal stem cell preparation for preparing medicine for treating rheumatoid arthritis
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of biomedicine, in particular to a mesenchymal stem cell preparation for preparing a medicament for treating rheumatoid arthritis.
Background
Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA) is an autoimmune disease in which the patient's immune system falsely recognizes tissues around the joint as "non-self" to attack, causing symptoms such as joint inflammation, pain, swelling, and stiffness, seriously affecting the patient's physical health and quality of life, and reducing the patient's life expectancy. The pathological features of RA are mainly synovial lining cell proliferation, interstitial massive inflammatory cell infiltration, neovascularization of microvessels and destruction of cartilage and bone tissues, and the pathogenesis is complex, genetic, infectious, hormonal and the like.
The existing treatment means mainly comprises joint damage prevention and joint function protection, and mainly comprises drug treatment such as non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, slow-acting antirheumatic drugs, immunosuppressant and the like, and other operation treatment means such as joint replacement and the like, however, the drug treatment cannot be well controlled, the radical treatment cannot be realized, the operation treatment has risks, the use time is limited, and no better treatment means exists at present.
Mesenchymal Stem Cells (MSCs) have a wide source, can be obtained from bone marrow, umbilical cord, placenta, fat and other tissues, not only have self-renewal ability and can be cultured in vitro in large quantities, but also have the three-line differentiation ability of differentiating bone, cartilage and fat, and have very low immunogenicity so as to be used by foreign bodies, and in recent years, the Mesenchymal stem cells are widely used for clinical research and new drug research and development.
At present, more than ten mesenchymal stem cell medicines are approved by clinical experiments of the State food and drug administration in China, and mainly relate to transplantation anti-host disease, diabetes, myocardial infarction, cerebral apoplexy, lower limb ischemia, pulmonary fibrosis, novel coronavirus pneumonia and the like.
Mesenchymal stem cells have two characteristics, so that the mesenchymal stem cells have theoretical basis and unique advantages in RA treatment. The mesenchymal stem cells are used as pharmacodynamic signal cells and secrete certain cytokines so as to promote the regeneration of blood vessels and improve microcirculation, such as VEGF factors; meanwhile, the mesenchymal stem cells have good immunoregulation capability, and inflammation is improved by inhibiting T cell proliferation, up-regulating Treg cell proportion, inhibiting B cell function, reducing B cell number and the like; in addition, it has paracrine function and trilineage differentiation ability, and can promote regeneration of cartilage and synovial tissue and inhibit inflammatory reaction. Therefore, the mesenchymal stem cells can well inhibit inflammation and regulate the immune system, thereby treating RA.
At present, many mesenchymal stem cells adopt a serum culture system, so that many risks are brought to clinical experiments, and some mesenchymal stem cells in the serum-free culture system are aged quickly and have low proliferation speed.
In view of the above, there is a need for a new culture system that can ensure rapid proliferation of mesenchymal stem cells and is more stable from batch to batch.
