Despite the pharmacological arsenal approved for Multiple Sclerosis (MS), there are treatment-reluctant patients for whom cell therapy appears as the only therapeutic alternative. Myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs) are immature cells of the innate immunity able to control the immune response and to promote oligodendroglial differentiation in the MS animal model experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE). However, when isolated and cultured for cell therapy purposes, MDSCs lose their beneficial immunomodulatory properties. To prevent this important drawback, culture devices need to be designed so that MDSCs maintain a state of immaturity and immunosuppressive function similar to that exerted in the donor organism. With this aim, we select graphene oxide (GO) as a promising candidate as it has been described as a biocompatible nanomaterial with the capacity to biologically modulate different cell types, yet its immunoactive potential has been poorly explored to date. In this work, we have fabricated GO films with two distintive redox and roughness properties and explore their impact in MDSC culture right after isolation. Our results show that MDSCs isolated from immune organs of EAE mice maintain an immature phenotype and highly immunosuppressive activity on T lymphocytes after being cultured on highly-reduced GO films (rGO) compared to those grown on conventional glass coverslips. This immunomodulation effect is depleted when MDSCs are exposed to slightly rougher and more oxidized GO substrates (rGO), in which cells experience a significant reduction in cell size associated with the activation of apoptosis. Taken together, the exposure of MDSCs to GO substrates with different redox state and roughness is presented as a good strategy to control MDSC activity . The versatility of GO nanomaterials in regards to the impact of their physico-chemical properties in immunomodulation opens the door to their selective therapeutic potential for pathologies where MDSCs need to be enhanced (MS) or inhibited (cancer).
