Allogeneic mesenchymal stem (stromal) cells (MSC) are a promising therapy for various pathological conditions. Genetically-modified pig MSC have been demonstrated to downregulate the human T cell response to pig antigens in vitro. Before genetically-modified pig MSC can be used clinically, however, evidence needs to be provided to indicate whether they will survive in a human (xenogeneic) host. A literature search through the end of 2011 identified 94 reports of the in vivo cross-species administration of MSC in a variety of experimental models. The majority (n=89) involved the use of human MSC in various other species, with an occasional study using pig, rat, or guinea pig MSC. When human MSC were used, they were largely derived from the bone marrow, adipose tissue, or umbilical cord blood. The routes of administration were varied, though almost half of the studies utilized the intravenous route. In 88 experiments (93.6%) there was evidence that the MSC engrafted and functioned across the species barrier, and in only 6 cases (6.4%) was there evidence of failure to function. Importantly, MSC function was confirmed in several different cross-species models. For example, human MSC functioned in no fewer than 7 different recipient species. The data provided by this literature search strengthen the hypothesis that pig MSC will function satisfactorily in a different species, e.g., humans. The data also suggest that our own in vitro observations on the efficacy of pig MSC in downregulating the strength of the human T cell response to pig antigens will likely be reproduced in vivo in preclinical large animal models and in clinical trials.
