The conditioned medium was harvested after two days of culture. Western blotting was carried out under non‑reducing and reducing conditions, and probing was performed with anti‑COL6A1 polyclonal antibody (IB: αCOL6A1); NTH α1(VI) and COL6A1 are indicated by white arrowheads; * indicates non‑specific band. (B) A representative immunoblot image of COL6A2 expression in conditioned media derived from S2‑VP10 and MDA‑MB‑436 cells. The conditioned media were harvested after two days of culture. Western blotting was carried out under reducing conditions and probing with anti‑COL6A2 monoclonal antibody (IB: αCOL6A2) was performed; COL6A2 bands are indicated by an arrow. (C and D) COL6A1 mRNA and COL6A2 mRNA expression in S2‑VP10 (C) and MDA‑MB‑436 cells (D); cells were cultured for 72 h and then COL6A1 mRNA and COL6A2 mRNA expression was determined by RT‑qPCR. Data are expressed as the mean ± SD (n=3). ***P<0.001 vs. siCont by Student's t test. RT‑qPCR, reverse transcription‑quantitative PCR; COL6A1, collagen type VI alpha 1 chain; NTH α1(VI), non‑triple helical type VI collagen α1 chain.

Figure Lengend Snippet: Figure 2. Effect of COL6A1 KD on the proliferation of S2‑VP10 cells. (A) Representative images of COL6A1 KD in S2‑VP10 cells. The indicated siRNA was transfected into S2‑VP10 cells and cell lysates were prepared. Western blotting was carried out under reducing conditions and sequential probing was performed with antibody #141 (IB: #141), anti‑COL6A1 polyclonal antibody (IB: αCOL6A1), and anti‑HSP90 monoclonal antibody (IB: αHSP90). (B) Typical proliferation curves of S2‑VP10 cells. Control siRNA was transfected into S2‑VP10 cells, which were cultured for 72 h. Cell proliferation at the indicated culture time determined by methylene blue staining is shown as absorbance at a wavelength of 660 nm. Data are expressed as the mean ± SD (n=4). (C) Effect of COL6A1 KD on the proliferation of S2‑VP10 cells. The indicated siRNA was transfected into S2‑VP10 cells, which were cultured for 72 h; relative cell numbers without transfection or with siCont transfection were increased by approximately three‑fold as shown in (B). Cell proliferation was assessed by methylene blue staining; data are expressed as the mean ± SD (n=3). ***P<0.001 vs. siCont by Dunnett's multiple comparison test. COL6A1, collagen type VI alpha 1 chain; KD, knockdown; IB, immunoblot; siCont, control siRNA; NT, no treatment.

(A) Effect of type VI collagen on the proliferation of S2‑VP10 cells. Transfection with COL6A1 siRNA#2 was the same as that shown in Fig. 2. After siRNA transfection, the indicated amount of type VI collagen (COLVI) was added to the cells, and cell proliferation was determined by methylene blue staining; data are expressed as the mean ± SD (n=3). (B‑E) Rescue activities of fractionated S2‑VP10 conditioned media on the proliferation of S2‑VP10 cells; after siRNA transfection, COL6A1#2 transfected S2‑VP10 cells were cultured for 72 h. Then, S2‑VP10 cell proliferations using DMEM supplemented with 10% FBS (negative control medium) (A), conditioned medium from S2‑VP10 cells (B), >10 kDa fraction (C), and <10 kDa fraction (D) were determined by methylene blue staining. The fractions were prepared using Amicon Ultra Centrifugal Filter Units. Data are expressed as the mean ± SD (n=3). COL6A1, collagen type VI alpha 1 chain; COL6A1#2, COL6A1#2 siRNA; fr., fraction; siCont, control siRNA; NT, no treatment.

Figure Lengend Snippet: Figure 4. Rescue activities of NTH α1(VI)‑derived peptides. (A‑C) Rescue activities of siRNA‑transfected conditioned media. Transfection with COL6A1 siRNA#2 was the same as that shown in Fig. 2. After siRNA transfection, the cells were cultured for 72 h, after which cell proliferation was determined. The cell proliferations of S2‑VP10 cells using DMEM supplemented with 10% FBS as negative control (A), control siRNA‑treated <0 kDa fraction (B), and COL6A1 #2 siRNA‑treated <10 kDa fraction (C) were determined by methylene blue staining.

Figure Lengend Snippet: Figure 8. Proposed Model of Mechanism for MSC-Induced Macrophage Activation and Acceleration of Wound Healing Intravenous infusion of culture-expanded hMSCs (green cells) leads to pulmonary entrapment of cells. Cd9+ macrophages are activated via the secretome of infused hMSCs (e.g., PRG4, TGFB3, and COL6A1). Pro-angiogenic CD9+ macrophages appear in the wound and accelerate tissue repair.
