Transient Receptor Potential Vanilloid

Objectives: We have recently shown that the transient receptor potential vanilloid 2 (TRPV2) channel is exclusively upregulated in rat/murine peri-infarct monocytes/macrophages following an acute myocardial infarction (AMI), and that this overexpression might be detrimental for cardiac recovery. We aimed to characterize the expression levels of TRPV2 in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) of AMI patients relative to individuals with normal coronaries, and to analyze potential associations with inflammatory and cardiac ischemic markers. Methods: Patients who underwent coronary angiography due to AMI or chest pain were prospectively included. PBMCs were isolated from whole blood by Ficoll gradient centrifugation. TRPV2 expression was analyzed by real-time PCR. C-reactive protein (CRP) and troponin I (TpI) levels were determined at the central chemistry laboratory; interleukin 6 and insulin-like growth factor (IGF)-1 levels were tested by ELISA. Results: Following AMI, the number of TRPV2-expressing PBMCs was reduced when compared to in patients with normal coronaries. An inverse correlation was documented between the numbers of circulating macrophages and TRPV2 expression. Additionally, TRPV2 expression was inversely correlated with CRP and TpI and directly correlated with serum IGF-1. Conclusions: We assume that peripheral TRPV2 downregulation occurs concomitantly with the accumulation of TRPV2-white blood cells in the peri-infarct zone. TRPV2 may thus represent a novel target for treatment in the acute phase after MI.

Bone marrow-derived CD34 + CXCR4 + progenitor cells are mobilized into peripheral blood early in acute myocardial infarction (MI). Adult murine bone marrow contains population of small CD34 + lin − CD45 − CXCR4 + cells expressing markers of pluripotent stem cells (PSC) SSEA, Oct-4 and Nanog. This population of very small embryonic-like cells (VSEL) has unique morphology (small size 2– 4 μm, large nucleus, euchromatin) and capability to form embrioid bodies (EB). Murine EB-derived cells can in vitro differentiate into cells from all three germ layers including cardiomyocytes. We hypothesized that in patients with acute MI small cells expressing the VSEL immunophenotype and PSC markers are present in bone marrow and mobilized into peripheral blood. Blood samples (20 mL) from 18 patients with acute MI were obtained after 12 hours, 2 and 5 days after symptoms onset. Bone marrow samples (20 mL) were obtained from 2 patients with acute MI and 3 healthy volunteers. Mononuclear cells were isolated using hypotonic lysis and samples were analyzed by FACS. Mobilization of following cell populations was confirmed: hematopoietic lin − CD45 + CXCR4 + , lin − CD45 + CD133 + , lin − CD45 + CD34 + and non-hematopoietic (VSEL) lin − CD45 − CXCR4 + , lin − CD45 − CD133 + , lin − CD45 − CD34 + . Analysis of the cell number using lymphocyte gate showed more significant increase of CD45 + (hematopoietic) populations of lin − CD34 + , lin − CD133 + and lin − CXCR4 + cells. After gating for small events (VSEL size range) we found more significant mobilization of small, non-hematopoietic populations of lin − CD34 + , lin − CD133 + and lin − CXCR4 + cells (Table ). The expression of PSC markers (Oct-4, Nanog, SSEA-1) in VSEL was confirmed using real-time RT-PCR. Conclusion: We report for the first time that acute MI is associated with mobilization of non-hematopoietic VSELs expressing pluripotent stem cells markers.

Acute myocardial infarction (AMI) is a result of cardiac non-perfusion and leads to cardiomyocyte necrosis, inflammation, and compromised cardiac performance. Here, we showed that the secretome of γ-irradiated peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCsec) improved heart function in a porcine AMI model and displayed beneficial long- and short-term effects. As an AMI is known to strongly affect gene regulation of the ischemia non-affected heart muscle and distal organs, we employed a transcriptomics approach to further study the immediate molecular events orchestrated using the PBMCsec in myocardium, liver, and spleen 24 h post ischemia. In the infarcted area, the PBMCsec mainly induced genes that were essential for cardiomyocyte function and simultaneously downregulated pro-inflammatory genes. Interestingly, genes associated with pro-inflammatory processes were activated in the transition zone, while being downregulated in the remote zone. In the liver, we observed a pronounced inhibition of immune responses using the PBMCsec, while genes involved in urea and tricarboxylic cycles were induced. The spleen displayed elevated lipid metabolism and reduced immunological processes. Together, our study suggested several types of pharmacodynamics by which the PBMCsec conferred immediate cardioprotection. Furthermore, our data supported the assumption that an AMI significantly affects distal organs, suggesting that a holistic treatment of an AMI, as achieved by PBMCsec, might be highly beneficial.

One Step

One step centrifugation procedure used commonly for separation of blood cells is the ficoll gradient centrifugation. In this method, after centrifugation, the peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) are located on the top of the separation fluid, whereas other blood cells erythrocytes and granulocytes sediment to the bottom. In the present study 75% of lymphocyte suspension could be separated by using a one-step density gradient centrifugation of sodium heparin blood with Sucrose. Sucrose was diluted into different concentrations using miliQ water (10%, 20%, 30%, 40%, 50%, 60%,70%, 80%, 90%, 100%,). 4 mL of diluted blood was layered on 4 mL of each sucrose solution and centrifuged for 45 minutes at 1000 rpm. Clear separation of PBMCs could be observed in solution with 40% sucrose. The separated PBMCs were analysed in haeme analyser which showed 75% lymphocytes, 23% monocytes and 2% of other cells.
