Abstract Mesenchymal stem cells derived from bone marrow promotes cardiomyocytes survival under hypoxia through exosomal miR-210 Background A paracrine effect was regarded as the key mechanism involved in the MSC (mesenchymal stem cell)-based treatment for myocardial infarction. In our pilot experiments, hypoxia remarkably promotes MSC to paracrine exosomal miR-210, which could significantly enhance the cardiomyocytes survival in hypoxic incubation, suggesting that exosomal miR-210 played critical roles in the favorable paracrine effect of MSC on cardiomyocytes. Purpose The aim of this study was to investigate the important mechanism by which MSCs promote the tolerance of cardiomyocytes to hypoxia by secreting exosomal miR-210. Methods and results The exosomes were isolated from MSCs conditioned medium through ultracentrifugation, and we detected that miR-210 was the most abundant in MSC-exosome and increased most prominently in the hypoxia. The extracted exosomes were prepared for conditioned medium and the effect on myocardial protection was examined. The viability of control group was much better than the cardiomyocytes treated with hypoxia, but it was further increased in the presence of MSC-exosome, however, measurement was significantly lower in cardiomyocytes in hypoxia with exosomes derived from MSCs treated with GW4869. Subsequently, the co-localization of miR-210 with exosome-specific surface markers CD81 and CD63 were observed by immunofluorescence technique. Continuous magnetic live cell imaging was used to observe the uptake of exosome by cardiomyocytes, and fluorescence localization was used to observe the localization of miR-210 with Cy3 fluorescence in cardiomyocytes. Then, we demonstrated that MSCs exosomal miR-210 exerts the cardioprotective effect by regulating the AIFM3 (apoptosis-inducing factor mitochondria-associated protein 3), and we directly overexpressed miRNA-210 in cardiomyocytes and the results showed that the regulatory activity of the intake of exosomal miR-210 was consistent with that of the biological exosomal miR-210. Finally, we verified the protective effect on the ischemic myocardium by constructing rat myocardial infarction models. The level of apoptosis was detected at 1 week after myocardial infarction. The left ventricular ejection fraction and ventricular remodeling were measured at 4 weeks. In vivo, we demonstrated that explanted miR-210 from transplanted MSCs significantly reduced myocardial necrosis and apoptosis induced by ischemia and improved cardiac function and myocardial remodeling. Conclusion Here, we show that the exosomal miR-210 secreted by MSCs significantly increase the viability of cardiomyocytes and cardiac function. These findings suggest that exosomal miR-210 is a key effector that mediates the protection against hypoxia.

Visceral Adipose

Background: Adipose stem cells (ASC) from subcutaneous and visceral adipose tissues have been studied individually. However, it is unclear whether ASC from the two sources have different biological properties and, more importantly, whether one sub-type of ASC is more effective in treatment of CHF. This study was designed to address these concerns. Methods: Morphology, yield, proliferation, surface markers, and cytokine secretion of rat subcutaneous ASC (S-ASC) and visceral ASC (V-ASC) were analyzed. A rat model of myocardial infarction (MI) was established by occlusion of the LAD. 7 days after MI, S-ASC (n = 11), V-ASC (n = 11), and cell culture medium (Control, n = 7) were injected into the infarct rim, respectively. Cardiac function of the infarcted hearts was monitored with MRI for 6 months. Results: Both S-ASC and V-ASC exhibited a fibroblast-like morphology and expressed stromal cell markers (CD29, CD90 and CD105). No significant expression of hematopoietic markers (CD11b, CD34 and CD45) was found. Under appropriate conditions, both cells could differentiate to adipocyte- and osteocyte-like cells. Both of them expressed a significant level of HGF, IGF-1 and VEGF. As to their differences, V-ASC had approximately 3-times greater cell yield and a lower colony-formation rate (9.8±1.0% vs.13.5±2.6%) relative to S-ASC. In contrast, S-ASC showed a significantly greater growth rate (Doubling Time: 17.9 h vs. 26.0 h) relative to V-ASC. Both S-ASC and V-ASC-treated hearts showed a significantly greater left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF, 58.3% and 56.7%) than the control group (LVEF, 47.2%) at end of 6 months. LVEF between the two ASC-treated groups was not significantly different. Finally, the implanted stem cells were readily detected in vivo with MRI for at least 6 months. Myocardial tissue sections showed existence of ASC and their locations matched with MRI signals. Conclusions: S-ASC and V-ASC share several biological characteristics. Both provide comparable significant improvement on cardiac function. Moreover, these implanted cells can be reliably tracked for at least 6 months using MRI. We conclude that the S-ASC and V-ASC are equally effective for treatment of heart failure.

Abstract Aims To establish pre-clinical proof of concept that sustained subcutaneous delivery of the secretome of human cardiac stem cells (CSCs) can be achieved in vivo to produce significant cardioreparative outcomes in the setting of myocardial infarction. Methods and results Rats were subjected to permanent ligation of left anterior descending coronary artery and randomized to receive subcutaneous implantation of TheraCyte devices containing either culture media as control or 1 × 106 human W8B2+ CSCs, immediately following myocardial ischaemia. At 4 weeks following myocardial infarction, rats treated with W8B2+ CSCs encapsulated within the TheraCyte device showed preserved left ventricular ejection fraction. The preservation of cardiac function was accompanied by reduced fibrotic scar tissue, interstitial fibrosis, cardiomyocyte hypertrophy, as well as increased myocardial vascular density. Histological analysis of the TheraCyte devices harvested at 4 weeks post-implantation demonstrated survival of human W8B2+ CSCs within the devices, and the outer membrane was highly vascularized by host blood vessels. Using CSCs expressing plasma membrane reporters, extracellular vesicles of W8B2+ CSCs were found to be transferred to the heart and other organs at 4 weeks post-implantation. Furthermore, mass spectrometry-based proteomic profiling of extracellular vesicles of W8B2+ CSCs identified proteins implicated in inflammation, immunoregulation, cell survival, angiogenesis, as well as tissue remodelling and fibrosis that could mediate the cardioreparative effects of secretome of human W8B2+ CSCs. Conclusions Subcutaneous implantation of TheraCyte devices encapsulating human W8B2+ CSCs attenuated adverse cardiac remodelling and preserved cardiac function following myocardial infarction. The TheraCyte device can be employed to deliver stem cells in a minimally invasive manner for effective secretome-based cardiac therapy.

Myogenic Stem Cells

Acute myocardial infarction leads to the loss of functional cardiomyocytes and structural integrity. The adult heart cannot repair the damaged tissue due to inability of mature cardiomyocytes to divide and lack of stem cells. The aim of this study was to evaluate the efficiency of introduced autologous skeletal musclederived stem cells to recover the function of acutely infarcted rabbit heart in the early postoperative period. Material and Methods. As a model for myocardium restoration in vivo, experimental rabbit heart infarct was used. Autologic adult myogenic stem cells were isolated from skeletal muscle and propagated in culture. Before transplantation, the cells were labeled with 4´,6-diamidino-2-phenylindole and then, during heart surgery, introduced into the rabbit acutely infarcted myocardium. Postoperative cardiac function was monitored by recording electrocardiograms and echocardiograms. At the end of the experiment, the efficiency of cell integration was evaluated histologically. Results. Rabbit cardiac function recovered after 1 month after the induction of experimental infarction both in the control and experimental groups. Therefore, the first month after the infarction was the most significant for the assessment of cell transplantation efficacy. Transplanted cell integration into infarcted myocardium was time- and individual-dependent. Evaluation of changes in left ventricular ejection fraction after the induction of myocardial infarction revealed better recovery in the experimental group; however, the difference among animals in the experimental and control groups varied and was not significant. Conclusions. Autologous myogenic stem cells repopulated infarcted myocardium with different efficiency in each individual. This variability may account for the observed difference in postoperative cardiac recovery in a rabbit model.

Introduction: Remodeling of the left ventricle (LV) after myocardial infarction (MI) represents a major cause of infarct-related heart failure and death. After acute myocardial infarction transplantation of bone marrow cells (BMCs) leads to regeneration of infarcted zones due to neovascularization and regeneration of myocardium. We investigated cardiac performance of intracoronary transplantation of autologous BMCs in patients with chronic ischemic heart disease, suffered from transmural myocardial infarction. Methods: We treated 120 consecutive patients (51±14 years) with chronic myocardial infarction by intracoronary transplantation of autologous bone marrow mononuclear cells (BMCs) and compared them with a consecutive enrolled representative control group (n=45, 53±11 years). Bone marrow was harvested from the hip (~80 ml) and mononuclear cells were identified including CD34+, AC133+ and CD 34−, CD45−, CD14− cells. The median number of mononuclear cells harvested after overnight culture was 104 x 10 6 Results: After 3 months in the transplantation group, infarct size was reduced from (32±9 to 25±9%) significantly (p<0.001), and global left ventricular ejection fraction (45±9 to 51±10%) significantly (p<0.001); as well as infarction wall movement velocity (1.86 ± 0.72 to 3,12 ± 0.78cm/s) significantly (p<0.001), while in the control group no significant changes were observed during 3 months follow-up in infarct size (29±9 to 28±9%), in left ventricular ejection fraction (48±10 to 50±15%) and in wall movement velocity of infarcted area (1.81 ± 0.76 to 1.92 ± 0.78cm/s). After bone marrow cell transplantation, there was an significantly (p<0.05) improvement of maximum oxygen uptake (VO2max, +12%) and significantly (p<0.05) of regional 18F-Fluor-Desoxy-Glucose (FDG) uptake (PET) into infarcted tissue (+15%). Conclusions: These results demonstrate that selective intracoronary transplantation of autologous BMCs may reduce infarct size and improve LV function and myocardial glucose uptake in chronic ischemic heart disease after chronic infarcted myocardium.

Abstract Background Interleukin 33 is known to have an important influence in the process of myocardial infarction, and the immunoregulatory function of MSCs could be influenced by cell factors. In this study, we evaluated the therapeutic efficacy of IL-33-overexpressing bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (IL33-MSCs) on myocardial infarction (MI) and detected the inflammatory level and cardiac function in rats. Methods and results First, we evaluated the proliferation of T cells and polarization of macrophages that had been co-cultured with Vector-MSCs or IL33-MSCs. Co-culture experiments indicated that IL33-MSCs reduced T cell proliferation and enhanced CD206+ macrophage polarization. Second, we determined the inflammation level and cardiac function of PBS-, Vector-MSC-, and IL33-MSC-injected rats. Echocardiography indicated that left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) was enhanced in IL33-MSC-injected rats compared with Vector-MSC-injected rats. Postmortem analysis of rat heart tissue showed reduced fibrosis and less inflammation in IL33-MSC-injected rats. Conclusion These studies indicated that the IL33-MSC injection improved heart function and reduces inflammation in rats with MI compared with PBS or Vector-MSC injections. Graphical Abstract IL-33 overexpression enhances the immunomodulatory function and therapeutic effects of MSCs on acute MI via enhancing the polarization of macrophages toward M2, enhancing the differentiation of CD4+ T cells toward CD4+IL4+Th2 cells, and finally, reducing heart inflammation and enhancing heart function.

Abstract Background Regenerative therapies offer new approaches to improve cardiac function after acute ST-elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). Mobilization of stem cells and homing within the infarcted area have been identified as the key mechanisms for successful treatment. Application of granulocyte-colony stimulating factor (G-CSF) is the least invasive way to mobilize stem cells while DDP4-inhibitor facilitates homing via stromal cell-derived factor 1 alpha (SDF-1α). Dutogliptin, a novel DPP4 inhibitor, combined with stem cell mobilization using G-CSF significantly improved survival and reduced infarct size in a murine model. Purpose We initiated a phase II, multicenter, randomized, placebo-controlled efficacy and safety study (N=140) analyzing the effect of combined application of G-CSF and dutogliptin, a small molecule DPP-IV-inhibitor for subcutaneous use after acute myocardial infarction. Methods The primary objective of the study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of dutogliptin (14 days) in combination with filgrastim (5 days) in patients with STEMI (EF &lt;45%) following percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Preliminary efficacy will be analyzed using cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (cMRI) to detect &gt;3.8% improvement in left ventricular ejection fraction (LV-EF). 140 subjects will be randomized to filgrastim plus dutogliptin or matching placebos. Results Baseline characteristics of the first 26 patients randomized (24 treated) in this trial reveal a majority of male patients (70.8%) and a medium age of 58.4 years (37 to 84). During the 2-week active treatment period, 35 adverse events occurred in 13 patients, with 4 rated as serious (hospitalization due to pneumonia N=3, hospitalization due to acute myocardial infarction N=1), and 1 adverse event was rated as severe (fatal pneumonia), 9 moderate, and 25 as mild. 6 adverse events were considered possibly related to the study medication, including cases of increased hepatic enzymes (N=3), nausea (N=1), subcutaneous node/suffusion (N=1) and syncope (N=1). Conclusions Our data demonstrate that the combined application of dutogliptin and G-CSF appears to be safe on the short term and feasible after acute myocardial infarction and may represent a new therapeutic option in future.

Cluster Of Differentiation

Objectives: We aimed to evaluate whether ultrasound (US) and microbubble-mediated delivery of Cluster of Differentiation 151 (CD151) could enhance the therapeutic effects of CD151 on myocardial infarction (MI). Methods: A rabbit model of MI was established by a modified Fujita method. Then, 50 MI rabbits were randomly divided into 5 groups, including G1 (CD151 plasmid and physiological saline in the presence of US); G2 (CD151 and Sonovue in the presence of US); G3 (CD151 and Sonovue in the absence of US); G4 (Sonovue in the absence of US), and a control group (physiological saline in the absence of US). After 14 days of treatment, the expression of CD151 was detected by Western blot. Besides, vessel density of peri-infarcted myocardium was measured by immunohistochemistry, and cardiac function was analyzed by echocardiography. Results: The rabbit model of MI was established successfully. CD151 injection increased the expression of CD151 and microvessel density in the myocardium of MI rabbits. Heart function was significantly improved by CD151, which exhibited increased left ventricular ejection fraction, left ventricular fractional shortening and a reduced Tei index. Besides, US Sonovue significantly increased the expression efficiency of CD151. Conclusion: US microbubble was an effective vector for CD151 delivery. CD151 might be an effective therapeutic target for MI.

Aims The purpose of this study was to evaluate whether yoga training in addition to standard medical therapy can improve cardiac function and reduce N terminal pro B-type natriuretic peptide (NT pro BNP) in heart failure (HF). Methods 130 patients were recruited and randomized into two groups: Control Group (CG) ( n = 65), Yoga Group (YG). In YG, 44 patients and in CG, 48 patients completed the study. Cardiac function using left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF), myocardial performance index (Tei index), and NT pro BNP, a biomarker of HF, was assessed at baseline and after 12 weeks. Result Improvement in LVEF, Tei index, and NT pro BNP were statistically significant in both the groups. Furthermore, when the changes in before and after 12 weeks were in percentage, LVEF increased 36.88% in the YG and 16.9% in the CG, Tei index was reduced 27.87% in the YG and 2.79% in the CG, NT pro BNP was reduced 63.75% in the YG and 10.77% in the CG. The between group comparisons from pre to post 12 weeks were significant for YG improvements (LVEF, P < 0.01, Tei index, P < 0.01, NT pro BNP, P < 0.01). Conclusion These results indicate that the addition of yoga therapy to standard medical therapy for HF patients has a markedly better effect on cardiac function and reduced myocardial stress measured using NT pro BNP in patients with stable HF.
