Response-Related Factors of Bone Marrow-Derived Mesenchymal Stem Cells Transplantation in Patients with Alcoholic Cirrhosis
Liver cirrhosis leads to hepatic dysfunction and life-threatening conditions. Although the clinical efficacy of autologous bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (BM-MSC) transplantation in alcoholic cirrhosis (AC) was demonstrated, the relevant mechanism has not been elucidated. We aimed to ide...

Liver cirrhosis leads to hepatic dysfunction and life-threatening conditions. Although the clinical efficacy of autologous bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (BM-MSC) transplantation in alcoholic cirrhosis (AC) was demonstrated, the relevant mechanism has not been elucidated. We aimed to identify the predictive factors and gene/pathways for responders after autologous BM-MSC transplantation. Fifty-five patients with biopsy-proven AC underwent autologous BM-MSC transplantation. The characteristics of responders who showed improvement in fibrosis score (≥1) after transplantation were compared with those of non-responders. BM-MSCs were analyzed with cDNA microarrays to identify gene/pathways that were differentially expressed in responders. Thirty-three patients (66%) were responders. A high initial Laennec score (<i>p</i> = 0.007, odds ratio 3.73) and performance of BM-MSC transplantation (<i>p</i> = 0.033, odds ratio 5.75) were predictive factors for responders.
