Animal of origin | Tissue of origin | Pretreatment | Type of MSC derivatives | Quantity | Route | Liver injury | Model | Effect | Mechanism | Ref. |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Mouse | Bone marrow | Hypoxia | MSC-CM | 5 mg | Intraperitoneal | Acetaminophen | Mouse | Improve biochemical parameters and histological scores | Reduce inflammation; improve liver regeneration | [95] |
Human | Adipose | Hypoxia | 25-fold concentrated MSC-CM | 0.1 ml | Tail vein | Partial hepatectomy | Mouse | Increase the number of proliferative liver cells | Activate JAK/STAT3 signaling | [96] |
Mouse | Bone marrow | Hypoxia | Protein composition | 10 mg/ml | Intraperitoneal | Acetaminophen | Mouse | Reduce oxygen levels; accelerate healing in damaged liver tissue | Inhibit the activation of inflammation; attenuate hepatocyte necrosis | [97] |
Rat | Bone marrow | Coculture with hepatocytes | 25-fold concentrated MSC-CM | 7.2 ml | Tail vein | D-GalN | Rat | Prolong the survival time of ALF rats | Prevent liver injury; promote liver tissue repair | [98] |
Mouse | Bone marrow | miR-223 overexpression | Exosomes | N/A | Intraperitoneal | Liver antigens S100 | Mouse | Reverse autoimmune hepatitis | Downregulate the release of cytokines such as NLRP3 and caspase-1 | [101] |
Mouse | Adipose tissue | miR181-5p overexpression | Exosomes | 40 μg | Intrasplenic | CCl4 | Mouse | Inhibit the deposition of collagen I, vimentin, α-SMA and fibronectin in the liver | Activate autophagy; downregulate Stat3 and Bcl-2 in HSCs | [102] |
