Résumé

We previously demonstrated that the human amniotic fluid (hAF) from II trimester of gestation is a feasible source of stromal progenitors (human amniotic fluid stem cells, hAFSC), with significant paracrine potential for regenerative medicine. Extracellular vesicles (EVs) separated and concentrated from hAFSC secretome can deliver pro-survival, proliferative, anti-fibrotic and cardioprotective effects in preclinical models of skeletal and cardiac muscle injury. While hAFSC-EVs isolation can be significantly influenced by in vitro cell culture, here we profiled EVs directly concentrated from hAF as an alternative option and investigated their paracrine potential against oxidative stress. II trimester hAF samples were obtained as leftover material from prenatal diagnostic amniocentesis following written informed consent. EVs were separated by size exclusion chromatography and concentrated by ultracentrifugation. hAF-EVs were assessed by nanoparticle tracking analysis, transmission electron microscopy, Western Blot, and flow cytometry; their metabolic activity was evaluated by oximetric and luminometric analyses and their cargo profiled by proteomics and RNA sequencing. hAF-EV paracrine potential was tested in preclinical in vitro models of oxidative stress and dysfunction on murine C2C12 cells and on 3D human cardiac microtissue. Our protocol resulted in a yield of 6.31 ± 0.98 × 10 Our results suggest that leftover samples of II trimester human amniotic fluid can represent a feasible source of EVs to counteract oxidative damage on target cells, thus offering a novel candidate therapeutic option to counteract skeletal and cardiac muscle injury.

BACKGROUND BACKGROUND
We previously demonstrated that the human amniotic fluid (hAF) from II trimester of gestation is a feasible source of stromal progenitors (human amniotic fluid stem cells, hAFSC), with significant paracrine potential for regenerative medicine. Extracellular vesicles (EVs) separated and concentrated from hAFSC secretome can deliver pro-survival, proliferative, anti-fibrotic and cardioprotective effects in preclinical models of skeletal and cardiac muscle injury. While hAFSC-EVs isolation can be significantly influenced by in vitro cell culture, here we profiled EVs directly concentrated from hAF as an alternative option and investigated their paracrine potential against oxidative stress.
METHODS METHODS
II trimester hAF samples were obtained as leftover material from prenatal diagnostic amniocentesis following written informed consent. EVs were separated by size exclusion chromatography and concentrated by ultracentrifugation. hAF-EVs were assessed by nanoparticle tracking analysis, transmission electron microscopy, Western Blot, and flow cytometry; their metabolic activity was evaluated by oximetric and luminometric analyses and their cargo profiled by proteomics and RNA sequencing. hAF-EV paracrine potential was tested in preclinical in vitro models of oxidative stress and dysfunction on murine C2C12 cells and on 3D human cardiac microtissue.
RESULTS RESULTS
Our protocol resulted in a yield of 6.31 ± 0.98 × 10
CONCLUSIONS CONCLUSIONS
Our results suggest that leftover samples of II trimester human amniotic fluid can represent a feasible source of EVs to counteract oxidative damage on target cells, thus offering a novel candidate therapeutic option to counteract skeletal and cardiac muscle injury.
