Abstract
Adipose‐derived mesenchymal stromal cells (AdMSC) release numerous soluble factors capable of stimulating angiogenesis. Improved methods for delivering these cells to maximize their potency are now sought that ideally they retain viable cells in the target tissue while promoting the secretion of angiogenic factors. Substrate surface topography is a parameter that can be used to manipulate the behavior of AdMSC but challenges exist with translating this parameter into materials compatible with minimally invasive delivery into tissues for in situ delivery of the angiogenic secretome. The current study investigates three compositions of hierarchically structured, porous biodegradable microcarriers for the culture of AdMSC and the influence of their surface topographies on the angiogenic secretome. All three compositions perform well as cell microcarriers in xeno‐free conditions. The attached AdMSC retain their capacity for subsequent trilineage differentiation. The secretome of AdMSC attached to the microcarriers consists of multiple proangiogenic factors, including significantly elevated levels of vascular endothelial growth factor, which stimulates angiogenesis in vitro. The unique properties of hierarchically structured, porous biodegradable microcarriers investigated in this study offer a radically transformative approach for achieving targeted in vivo delivery of AdMSC and enhancing the potency of their proangiogenic activity to induce neovascularization in ischemic tissue.
