Abstract
The state of rat kidneys after injection of bone marrow multipotent stromal cells (MSC) labeled with Vybrant CM-Dil into intact or resected liver was studied by fluorescence microscopy. The main structural changes in the kidneys after MSC injection into intact and partially resected liver manifested as granular dystrophy and necrobiotic/necrotic changes in single epithelial cells of the distal tubules and collecting ducts, thrombosis of some vessels, progression of an ascending urinary tract infection (detection of dust-like fluorescent objects), which can be due to the immunomodulating or even immunosuppressive influence of MSC and their detritus. MSC injected into the intact or resected liver, as well as the products of their degradation were not detected in the kidneys at all terms of observation. After injection of MSC into partially resected liver, manifestations of bacterial contamination of the renal medulla appeared later. The injection of MSC into the liver can be complicated by thrombosis of the renal vessels, which should be taken into account when using this administration route in the cell therapy.
