چکیده

مقدمه: توانایی نوسازی، چند توانی و ویژگی تنظیم ایمنی، سلول‌های بنیادی مزانشیمی را به کاندیدای مناسبی برای سلول‌درمانی مبدل ساخته است. به تازگی، Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) و ترشحات آن‌ها در کنترل بیماری‌های عفونی مورد توجه قرار گرفته‌اند. MSCs، می‌تواند پاتوژن را بشناسد، به محل عفونت حرکت کند و با جهت‌دهی پاسخ‌های ایمنی و تولید پپتیدهای ضد میکروبی، با آن‌ها مبارزه کند. مطالعه‌ی مرورری حاضر با هدف بررسی نقش درمانی MSCs در بیماری‌های عفونی انجام شد.روش‌ها: این مطالعه به صورت مروری و با جستجوی واژگان کلیدی MSCs، میان‌کنش MSCs و سلول‌های سیستم ایمنی، نقش MSCs در عفونت و سلول‌درمانی بیماری‌های عفونی با MSCs در پایگاه‌های اطلاعاتی PubMed، Science Direct، Scopus و موتور جستجوگر Google scholar انجام شد. در نهایت، 100 مقاله انتخاب و بررسی شدند.یافته‌ها: بر اساس مطالعات انجام شده، MSCs‌درمانی یک روش امیدوار کننده در کنترل بیماری‌های عفونی می‌باشد. MSCs می‌تواند با هر دو سیستم ایمنی میزبان و پاتوژن میان‌کنش دهد. حاصل این میان‌کنش، ایجاد پاسخ‌های التهابی و ضد التهابی، ترشح پپتیدهای ضد میکروبی و تأثیر بر تمایز و عملکرد سلول‌های ایمنی است.نتیجه‌گیری: اثرات مثبت و منفی MSCs در هدایت پاسخ‌های ایمنی به دفعات تزریق، مرحله‌ی عفونت و تحریک گیرنده‌های MSCs بستگی دارد. بنابراین، انجام مطالعات فراگیر جهت ارایه‌ی راه‌کار درمانی مناسب در هر بیماری عفونی ضروری است

چکیده [English]

Background: Self-renewal, multipotent, and immunomodulatory are properties of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) that make them a good candidate for cell therapy. Recently, MSCs and their secretions are considered in control of infectious disease. MSCs can recognize pathogens, migrate to infection site, and fight against them by redirecting immune responses and anti-microbial peptide secretion. In this review, the therapeutic role of MSCs in infectious disease is discussed.Methods: In this review article, we searched MSCs, interaction of MSCs and immune cells, MSCs in infection, and MSCs therapy in infectious disease as key words in valid databases including PubMed, Science Direct, Scopus, and Google scholar. Finally, 100 articles were selected and reviewed completely.Findings: According to the studies, MSCs therapy is a promising method for control of infectious disease. MSCs interact with both host immune systems and pathogen. The result of this interaction is inflammatory and anti-inflammatory responses, secretion of antimicrobial peptides, and influence on the differentiation and function of immune cells.Conclusion: Positive and negative effects of MSCs in the direction of immune response depend on the number of injections, infection phase, and stimulation of MSCs receptors. Therefore, comprehensive studies are needed to represent effective therapeutic protocols for any infectious disease.
