Musculoskeletal tuberculosis accounts for 10% – 15% of all TB notifications in the non-industrialized world. • Spine is the most common site (50%), followed by pelvis (12%), hip and femur (10%), knee and tibia (10%), ribs (7%), and mulltiple sites (3%). 50% 10% Talbot J C, Bismil Q, Saralaya D, Newton DAG, Frizzel RM, Shaw DL.

Mesenchymal Stem Cells • Discovered in 1968, by A.J. Friedenstein : “ MSCs are a subset of non-haematopoetic pluripotent cells found in adult bone marrow and are capable of differentiating into adipocytes, fibroblasts and even myoblasts” • Stem cell nature of these cells : ability to self renewal and differentiation into various mesenchymal elements. (bone, fat, cartilage, and muscle) • Over the years, MSCs are increasingly used in clinical practice for cell therapy. • There is growing understanding among scientific community that many of infectious diseases may be cured or controlled using stem cells.

Mesenchymal Stem Cell has Immunomodulator Properties • MSCs are rare population of non-haematopoetic stromal cells, present in bone marrow and connective tissues. • MSCs as multipotent cells: bone, cartilage, adipose tissue, muscles. • MSC have potent immunosuppresive and immunomodulator capacity. • It was reported that MSCs posess antingen-presenting properties • Under inflammatory conditions, MSCs can act as proffesional antigen-presenting cells Chelluri, I.

Effects of MSCs on Immunocytes MSC modulates immune response by interaction with : • T cells • B cells • Dendritic cells • Treg cells • NK cells • Γδ cells Shi M, Liu Z-W. Wang FS. Immunomodulatory Properties and Therapeutic Application of Mesenchymal Stem Cells. Clinical and Experimental Immunology. 2011. British Society for Immunology, Clinical and Experimental Immunology, 164: 1-8.
MSCs possess immunosuppressive : inhibit T-cells, B-cells, NK cells proliferation and functions. • Modulate activities of DCs, induce Treg cells. • These properties is dependent on cell – cell contact or IDO, PGE2, NO, IFN-γ, TGF-β secretions • Inflammatory : MScs prevent naive CD4 cells into TH17
Raghuvanshi : “MSCs are recruited to the site of MTB infection” • MSCs contains the pathogenic microorganisms but doesn’t eliminate them. • Inhibit T-cell atcivation by producing NO, TGF-β, or IDO • NO controls the growth of MTB organisms and confines them within granuloma-like structures • Persistent MTB infections !
It is believed that MSCs can act as Antigen Presenting Cells under inflammatory conditions • MSCs secreted IL6, IL8, chmokines CCl2, TIMP2 • Pro inflammatory : attracts Monocytes, DCs, T cells and NK cells antigen eradications actively or through T cells and NK cells, and NO. • Anti inflammatory : Chemotaxis targets neutrophils, monocytes. • MSCs have dual immunomodulatory capacity, depend on IFN-γ and TNF-α.
MSCs role in TB Infection ????????? MSC
MSCs role in immunomodulation is still questionable • Mensyuknil (2011) studied effect of MTB debris on MSCs growth (in vitro). NO effect on MSCs growth by MTB debris • Interaction between living Mycobacterium tuberculosis and Mesenchymal Stem Cells in one single medium is required to evaluate. Mensyuknil, U.

Research Questions • Is there any effect on Mycobacterium tuberculosis growth by performing co-culture Mycobacterium tuberculosis and Mesenchymal Stem Cells ? • By performing co-culture is there any effect on Mesenchymal Stem Cells growth ?
Research Hypothesis • MSCs have immunoregulator properties and have direct eradication effect on Mycobacterium tuberculosis • Effect MSCs on eradication of Mycobacterium tuberculosis or MTB growth are seen in Acid fast staining, bacterial culture, and PCR.
Aim • To evaluate interaction between living Mycobacterium tuberculosis and Mesenchymal Stem Cells in co-culture growth

DISCUSSION Why RPMI ? • DMEM (for MSCs) and MGIT/LJ (for MTB) are best for each MSC and MTB. But MSCs can’t be cultured in MGIT/LJ as well as MTB in DMEM • Roswell Park Memorial Institute Medium is a kind of medium in culturing cells and tissues. • RPMI-1640 as a medium to culture leucocytes, bone marrow, and hybridoma. • RPMI can be used in culturing Mycobacterium tuberculosis* • RPMI can be used in culturing MSCs, though DMEM is still superior compared to RPMI** *Zhang M, Gong J, Lin Y, Barnes P F.

Discussion Mesenchymal Stem Cells in Tc-Flask • Using capped Tc-Flask Biosafety • MSCs seeding invitro Various amount • Eyckman : compared seeding 5000/cm2 – 25000 /cm2 – 85000/cm2 • 5000/cm2 results in more efficient in cell attachments compared to the others. * Eyckmans J, Lin GL, Chen CS.

Discussion Effect MSCs on Mycobacterium tuberculosis growth • All evaluations for MTB existence/growth in co culture (AFB – Bacterial cuture – PCR) confirmed that MSCs has no eradication effect on MTB. • On AFB staining : coculture group showed more densed MTB compared to MTB group especially in day 7 and day 9. • On bacterial culture : Both MTB group and coculture group defines the same positive (+) result • On PCR assay : p 0.04 / 0.07 / 0.07 (3 groups) and p 0.08 / 0.56 / 0.77 (MTB : Coculture) showed no difference in MTB existence.
Discussion MSCs Immunomodulator Properties ? (Previous Studies) : • MSCs might support eradication of MTB (microorganism) infection through its immunomodulator properties* • MSCs inhibit T cells and provide immune tolerance for Mycobacterium tuberculosis (evade host immunity) ** • MSCs immunomodulation effect depends on surrounding inflammatory environment.*** In Vitro (-) *Rahyussalim.

Discussion Coculture Study Mycobacterium tuberculosis – Mesenchymal Stem Cells • MSCs viabe cells are hardly seen in the coculture group • MSCs are believed to have Antigen Presenting Cellrole in its immunomodulator properties • Absence of “real” inflammatory mediators in invitro study. • However, MTB are known not to possess/produce exotoxins • Is it exotoxins ? / or “Medium competition” ? • Novak : “MTB demonstrated polyketide synthesis gense, indicating that MTB produces a related toxin”. • Finding an MTB homolog of this toxin will be a focus of future research Novak K. Tuberculosis Toxic Avengers. 1999. Science; 283:854. http://www.nature.com/nm/focus/tb/research_news.html
Conclusions • Mesenchymal Stem Cells have no effect in Mycobacterium tuberculosis eradication (In Vitro) • Mycobacterium tuberculosis somehow suppress Mesenchymal Stem Cells growth ( In Vitro) However, effect of Mycobacterium tuberculosis on MSCs growth (In Vitro) creates another question ? Is it just “Medium Competition” or “MTB prouce toxins or virulence factors” ?
