Here, we describe a case of a 5-year-old show-jumping stallion presented with severe lameness, swelling, and pain on palpation of the left metacarpophalangeal joint (MCj). Diagnostic imaging revealed full and partial-thickness articular defects over the lateral condyle of the third metacarpus (MC3) and the dorsolateral aspect of the first phalanx (P1). After the lesion's arthroscopic curettage, the patient was subjected to an innovative regenerative treatment consisting of two intra-articular injections of equine synovial membrane mesenchymal stem/stromal cells (eSM-MSCs) combined with umbilical cord mesenchymal stem/stromal cells conditioned medium (UC-MSC CM), 15 days apart. A 12-week rehabilitation program was accomplished, and lameness, pain, and joint effusion were remarkably reduced; however, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and computed tomography (CT) scan presented incomplete healing of the MC3's lesion, prompting a second round of treatment. Subsequently, the horse achieved clinical soundness and returned to a higher level of athletic performance, and imaging exams revealed the absence of lesions at P1, fulfillment of the osteochondral lesion, and cartilage-like tissue formation at MC3's lesion site. The positive outcomes suggest the effectiveness of this combination for treating full and partial cartilage defects in horses. Multipotent mesenchymal stem/stromal cells (MSCs) and their bioactive factors compose a novel therapeutic approach for tissue regeneration and organ function restoration with anti-inflammatory and pro-regenerative impact through paracrine mechanisms.
在此,我们描述了一例5岁的盛装舞步种马病例,该马出现严重跛行、肿胀,触诊左掌指关节(MCj)时疼痛。诊断性影像学检查显示第三掌骨(MC3)外侧髁和第一指骨(P1)背外侧存在全层和部分厚度的关节缺损。在对病变进行关节镜下刮除术后,对该马进行了一种创新的再生治疗,包括间隔15天进行两次关节内注射马滑膜间充质干/基质细胞(eSM-MSCs)并联合脐带间充质干/基质细胞条件培养基(UC-MSC CM)。完成了一个为期12周的康复计划,跛行、疼痛和关节积液明显减轻;然而,磁共振成像(MRI)和计算机断层扫描(CT)显示MC3病变愈合不完全,促使进行第二轮治疗。随后,这匹马恢复了临床健康并恢复到更高水平的运动表现,影像学检查显示P1无病变,骨软骨病变愈合,MC3病变部位有软骨样组织形成。这些积极结果表明这种联合治疗方法对治疗马的全层和部分软骨缺损有效。多能间充质干/基质细胞(MSCs)及其生物活性因子构成了一种新型的组织再生和器官功能恢复治疗方法,通过旁分泌机制具有抗炎和促进再生的作用。
