Abstract Background Recurrent spontaneous abortion (RSA) is a challenging condition that affects the health of women both physically and mentally, but its pathogenesis treatment have yet to be studied in detail. In recent years, Wharton’s jelly-derived mesenchymal stem cells (WJ-MSCs) been shown effective treating various diseases. Current understanding RSA using WJ-MSCs limited, exact mechanisms action remains largely unclear. this study, we explored decidual deficiencies therapeutic potential at single-cell resolution. Methods Three mouse models were established: normal pregnancy group, an WJ-MSC group. Decidual tissue samples collected for RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) functional verification, including resolution situ hybridization on tissues (SCRINSHOT) immunofluorescence. Results We generated atlas from pregnant, RSA, WJ-MSC-treated mice identified 14 cell clusters decidua day 14. Among these populations, stromal most abundant decidua, further three novel subclusters (Str_0, Str_1, Str_2). also demonstrated IL17 TNF signaling pathways enriched upregulated DEGs mice. Intriguingly, cell–cell communication analysis revealed Str_1 cell-related gene expression was greatly reduced group rescued Notably, interaction between NK other attenuated, Spp1 (identified as endometrial toleration-related marker) significantly could restored by treatment. Conclusion Herein, implemented scRNA-seq systematically evaluate cellular heterogeneity transcriptional regulatory networks associated with WJ-MSCs. These data targets remodel subpopulations provided new insights into decidua-derived developmental defects maternal–foetal interface.

Mesenchymal stem/stromal cells (MSCs) represent a heterogeneous cell population distributed throughout various tissues, demonstrating remarkable adaptability to microenvironmental cues and holding immense promise for disease treatment. However, the inherent diversity within MSCs often leads variability in therapeutic outcomes, posing challenges clinical applications. To address this heterogeneity, purification of MSC subpopulations through marker-based isolation has emerged as promising approach ensure consistent efficacy. In review, we discussed reported markers MSCs, encompassing those developed candidate marker strategies high-throughput approaches, with aim explore viable addressing heterogeneity illuminate prospective research directions field.

Abstract The highly heterogeneous characteristics of Wharton's jelly mesenchymal stem cells (WJ‐MSCs) may be responsible for the poor clinical outcomes and reproducibility treatments based on WJ‐MSCs. Exploration WJ‐MSC heterogeneity with multimodal single‐cell technologies will aid in establishing accurate MSC subtyping developing screening protocols dominant functional subpopulations. Here, WJ‐MSCs are systematically analyzed by single cell spatial transcriptome sequencing. Single‐cell transcriptomics analysis identifies four subpopulations, namely proliferative_MSCs, niche‐supporting_MSCs, metabolism‐related_MSCs biofunctional‐type_MSCs. Furthermore, transcriptome, cellular heterogeneity, cell‐state trajectories these subpopulations characterized. Intriguingly, biofunctional‐type MSCs (marked S100A9, CD29, CD142) selected this study exhibit promising wound repair properties vitro vivo. Finally, integrating omics data, it has been found that S100A9 + CD29 CD142 subpopulation is more enriched fetal segment umbilical cord, suggesting deriving from have potential into an ideal therapeutic agent healing. Overall, presented comprehensively maps provides essential resource future development WJ‐MSC‐based drugs.

Accumulating evidence indicates that most primary Wharton’s jelly mesenchymal stem cells (WJ-MSCs) therapeutic potential is due to their paracrine activity, i.e., ability modulate microenvironment by releasing bioactive molecules and factors collectively known as secretome. These can either be released directly into the surrounding or embedded within membrane-bound extracellular nano-sized (usually 30–150 nm) messenger particles vesicles of endosomal origin with specific route biogenesis, exosomes carried relatively larger (100 nm–1 μm) formed outward blebbing plasma membrane called microvesicles (MVs); MVs are (EVs). The found in secretome various types, including cytokines, chemokines, cytoskeletal proteins, integrins, growth factors, angiogenic mediators, hormones, metabolites, regulatory nucleic acid molecules. As expected, performs different biological functions, such immunomodulation, tissue replenishment, cellular homeostasis, besides possessing anti-inflammatory anti-fibrotic effects.

Endogenous regeneration is becoming an increasingly important strategy for wound healing as it facilitates skin's own regenerative potential self-healing, thereby avoiding the risks of immune rejection and exogenous infection. However, currently applied biomaterials inducing endogenous skin are simplistic in their structure function, lacking ability to accurately mimic intricate tissue regulate disordered microenvironment. Novel biomimetic with precise structure, chemical composition, biophysical properties offer a promising avenue achieving perfect regeneration.
