| Abstract | Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) have been extensively explored in a variety of regenerative medicine applications. The relatively large size of MSCs expanded in tissue culture flasks leads to retention in the microcirculation of the lungs following intravenous delivery, reducing their capacity to reach target sites. We explored whether the expansion of whole marrow in suspension cultures would yield smaller MSCs with increased capacity to traverse the pulmonary microcirculation compared with traditional monolayer cultures. We tested this hypothesis using rat marrow in a suspension bioreactor culture with fibronectin-coated microcarriers, leading to sustained expansion of both the microbead-adherent cells, as well as of a nonadherent cell fraction. Magnetic depletion of CD45(+) cells from the bioreactor cultures after 5 weeks led to a highly enriched CD73(+)/CD90(+)/CD105(+) MSC population. The bioreactor-grown MSCs were significantly smaller than parallel monolayer MSCs (15.1 ± 0.9 µm vs. 18.5 ± 2.3 µm diameter, p<0.05). When fluorescently labeled bioreactor-grown MSCs were intravenously injected into rats, the peak cell concentration in the arterial circulation was an order of magnitude higher than similarly delivered monolayer-grown MSCs (94.8 ± 29.6 vs. 8.2 ± 5.6/10(6) nucleated blood cells, respectively, p<0.05). At 24 h after intravenous injection of the LacZ-labeled bioreactor-grown MSCs, there was a significant threefold decrease in the LacZ-labeled MSCs trapped in the lungs, with a significant increase in the cells reaching the spleen and liver in comparison to their monolayer MSC counterparts. Bioreactor-grown whole marrow cell cultures yielded smaller MSCs with increased capacity to traverse the pulmonary microcirculation compared with traditionally expanded monolayer MSCs. This may significantly improve the capacity and efficiency of these cells to home to injury sites downstream of the lungs. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
