Vacinas de DCs vêm sendo utilizadas como forma de tratamento imunoterápico adjuvante para várias neoplasias. Protocolos para geração dessas células têm sido desenvolvidos e o método ideal de produção para uso clínico ainda necessita ser definido. É fundamental a definição de protocolos e reagentes que ofereçam, a partir de células mononucleares do sangue periférico, células dendríticas seguras e funcionais para uso clínico. A suplementação de meios de cultura com soro de origem animal e humano leva á riscos de xenosensibilização e transmissão de doenças. O uso do soro autólogo parece oferecer menos riscos ao paciente, porém a presença de fatores imunossupressores nesse soro poderia interferir na qualidade das DCs produzidas. Vários tipos de meios livres de soro, baseados nas boas práticas de produção - "good manufacture practice" (GMP), têm sido utilizados recentemente e parecem ser uma opção viável. O objetivo desse estudo foi avaliar os resultados da diferenciação, maturação e funcionalidade de DCs de pacientes com LMA, produzidas em meios livres de soro e em meio suplementado com soro autólogo. Concluímos que os meios de cultura livres de soro foram eficientes na produção de DCs para fins imunoterápicos em pacientes com LMA. Em contrapartida, o uso de soro autólogo parece interferir na capacidade funcional das DCs geradas / Abstract: Dendritic cells (DCs) are the main antigen-presenting cells of the immune system, capable of stimulating T lymphocytes to initiate specific immune responses. Vaccines based on DCs have been used as a treatment adjuvant immunotherapy for various malignancies. Protocols for generating these cells have been developed and the optimal method of production for clinical use remains to be defined. There is a great interest in the definition of protocols and reagents providing from peripheral blood mononuclear cells, functional and safe dendritic cells for clinical use. Supplementation of culture media with serum from animal and human leads to reactions due the animal proteins and transmission of disease. The use of autologous serum seems to offer less risk to the patient, but the presence of immunosuppressive factors may affect the quality of the DCs produced. Several types of serum-free media, based on "good manufacture practice" (GMP), have been used recently and seem to be a viable option. The aim of this study was to evaluate the results of the differentiation, maturation and function of DCs from AML patients, generated in serum-free media and media supplemented with autologous serum. We concluded that the serum-free media were efficient in the production of DCs for immunotherapy in AML patients. However, the use of autologous serum appears to interfere with the functional capacity of generated DCs / Mestrado / Biologia Estrutural, Celular, Molecular e do Desenvolvimento / Mestra em Fisiopatologia Médica

Caractérisation des cellules souches gingivales et protocole de culture préclinique pour une thérapie osseuse humaine / Characterization of human gingival stem cells and preclinical culture protocol for human bone therapy

Taïhi, Ihsène 04 December 2017 (has links)
La thérapie cellulaire est une méthode d’avenir innovante, actuellement utilisée dans le traitement de pathologies multiples (auto-immunitaire, cancéreuses, pathologies inflammatoires, allogreffes…) et la régénération des pertes de substance tissulaire. Les cellules souches mésenchymateuses, par la variabilité de leurs origines, présentent des propriétés très intéressantes à la thérapie, notamment un potentiel de différenciation en lignées multiples, et des propriétés d’immunomodulation importantes. Mon projet s’intéresse à l’utilisation de cellules souches orales récemment isolées de la gencive par notre équipe : cellules souches gingivales (GSC), et présentant un avantage fonctionnel par rapport aux sources cellulaires traditionnelles d’origine mésodermique (moelle osseuse) ou orales (pulpe dentaire, follicule dentaire, ligament parodontal, glandes salivaires…). Les défauts osseux des mâchoires, de par leur multitude d’étiologies (traumatismes, dysmorphoses, cancer, ...) et le handicap généré, représentent une cible thérapeutique privilégiée. Les GSCs ont la même origine embryologique neurectodermique que les os maxillaires et par là-même un phénotype proche, exploré dans notre équipe. Cette source gingivale de prélèvement non traumatique est une alternative aux techniques chirurgicales actuelles mutilantes pour le site donneur. Notre objectif est double : Etablir un protocole préclinique de culture des GSC en ostéoblastes, pour être compatibles avec la thérapie humaine afin d’obtenir une régénération osseuse optimale. Les capacités immunomodulatrices des GSCs sont par là-même étudiées dans ces nouvelles conditions, dans le but de maitriser la réaction inflammatoire et préserver la greffe osseuse, grâce à la plateforme exceptionnelle mise à notre disposition par l’établissement français du sang, et une équipe très spécialisée dans l’étude des mécanismes de régulation immunitaires. Nos résultats permettront non seulement une régénération osseuse transposable chez l’homme, mais également d’utiliser ces cellules pour le traitement d’autres pathologies (cancéreuses, auto-immunitaires…) en utilisant leur capacité immunomodulatrice. / Cell therapy is an innovative method of the future, currently used in the treatment of multiple diseases (autoimmune, cancer, inflammatory pathologies, allografts ...) and the regeneration of tissue loss. Mesenchymal stem cells (MSC), regardless their origins, exhibit very interesting properties for therapy, including a potential for multi-line differentiation, and important immunomodulation properties. My project focuses on the use of oral stem cells recently isolated from the gingiva by our team (GSC), and having a functional advantage over traditional mesodermal (bone marrow) cellular sources. The bone defects of the jaws, due to their multitude of etiologies (trauma, dysmorphoses, cancer...) and the generated handicap, represent a preferred therapeutic target. GSCs have the same neurectodermal embryological origin as the maxillary bones and thus a similar phenotype, explored in our team. This gingival source of non-traumatic removal is an alternative to current mutilating surgical techniques for the donor site. Our goal is twofold: To establish a preclinical GSC culture protocol in osteoblasts, to be compatible with human therapy, in order to achieve optimal bone regeneration. The immunomodulatory capacities of the GSCs are themselves studied under these new conditions, with the aim of controlling the inflammatory reaction and preserving the bone graft, thanks to the exceptional platform made available to us by the French blood establishment, and A highly specialized team in the study of immune regulation mechanisms. Our results will not only allow transposable bone regeneration in humans but also use these cells for the treatment of other pathologies (cancerous, autoimmune ...) using their immunomodulatory capacity.
