Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) may have potential applications in regenerative
medicine for the treatment of chronic liver diseases (CLDs). Human menstrual
blood is a novel source of MSCs, termed menstrual blood-derived stem cells
(MenSCs). Compared with bone marrow MSCs, MenSCs exhibit a higher proliferation
rate and they can be obtained through a simple, safe, painless procedure without
ethical concerns. Although the therapeutic efficacy of MenSCs has been explored
in some diseases, their effects on liver fibrosis are still unclear. In the
present study, we investigated the therapeutic effects of MenSC transplantation
in a carbon tetrachloride-induced mouse model of liver fibrosis. These results
revealed that MenSCs markedly improved liver function, attenuated collagen
deposition, and inhibited activated hepatic stellate cells up to 2 weeks after
transplantation. Moreover, tracking of green fluorescent protein-expressing
MenSCs demonstrated that transplanted cells migrated to the sites of injury, but
few differentiated into functional hepatocyte-like cells. Transwell coculturing
experiments also showed that MenSCs suppressed proliferation of LX-2 cells (an
immortalized hepatic stellate cell line) through secretion of monocyte
chemoattractant protein-1, interleukin-6, hepatocyte growth factor,
growth-related oncogene, interleukin-8, and osteoprotegerin. Collectively, our
results provided preliminary evidence for the antifibrotic capacity of MenSCs in
liver fibrosis and suggested that these cells may be an alternative therapeutic
approach for the treatment of CLDs. Stem Cells Translational Medicine
