Introduction & Hypothesis: Diabetes mellitus patients’(DMP) peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMNC) regenerative capacity level is impaired. An in vitro evaluation of PBMNC pre/post vasculogenic conditioning (VC) facilitates the assessment of immune cells regenerative potential (H1) and possible cell therapy for DMP with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) (H2). Materials & Methods: Eighteen DMP with the diagnosis of AMI enrolled. Blood drawn in heparin-coated syringes from AMI patients (between day 3 to 7) along with sixteen healthy control. Isolated PBMNC regenerative capability evaluated pre and post VC ( Fig 1 ) with EPCs colony formation assay/unit (EPC-CFA/U) and flow cytometry analysis. Results: An in vitro EPC-CFA revealed that DMP fresh PBMNC derived definitive EPC (DEPC) decreased compared to control. The differentiation rate of EPC, definitive vs. primitive in control groups composed equal (50%, PEPC vs. 50%, DEPC) while in DMP, PEPC prevails (70% vs. 30%). After VC, DEPC-CFU markedly increased while PEPC-CFU decreased, indicating EPC qualitatively and quantitatively improvement in DMP (Control, PBMNC vs. VC P>0.001; DMP, PBMNC vs. VC, P>0.01). DMP glycoalbumin and Hb1Ac inversely correlated with CD34+ cells (r= -0.48, P>0.03) while VC recovered CD34+ cells (r= 0.17, P<0.54). ROC curve analysis also confirmed that the CD34+ cell number is an independent risk classifier of cardiac vessel lesion (AUC=0.85, P>0.002). In contrast, VC preserved from the senescence by expansion and differentiation of CD34+ (AUC=0.54, P<0.7). Proinflammatory M1 type significantly increased in DMP compared to Control (P>0.03), while VC shifted the M1 type phenotype toward M2 type (P>0001). Conclusion: Our EPC-CFA enables us to precisely assess impaired EPC function, while VC enhanced differentiation from PEPC toward DEPC. Furthermore, these methodologies facilitate the evaluation of RACs capacities such as EPC, M1/M2, and Treg cells in DMP with AMI for cell therapy.

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.

Abstract BackgroundHuman adipose derived mesenchymal stem cells (ASCs) are ideal candidates for the treatment of acute myocardial infarction (AMI), due to their favorable availability and regenerative potential. However, in vivo studies showed that ASCs are not resilient at the infarcted area, for a shortage of blood and oxygen supply. Material and methodsTo solve the problem of living in the hypoxic environment, we accommodated ASCs within the hypoxic condition. To enhance the capillary system, we combined the hypoxic pretreated ASCs (HP-ASCs) with cord blood mononuclear cells (CBMNCs), which have a great potential for neovascularization. We hypothesized that this combination system would improve the transplantation efficiency. ResultsIn vitro study showed that HP-ASCs had a wide range of paracrine function, with the incretion growth factors and their receptors, which would support the cell survivals. In addition, HP-ASCs also gained potentials in hypoxic adaptation (increased expression of HO-1 and SDF-1), as well as homing and immigrating abilities (CXCR4, ICAM-1 and ICAM-2). In vivo studies showed that, 30 days after transplantation in AMI rats, the HP-ASCs group had a better improvement in cardiac function; reduction of the infarct size; and decrease of ASCs death than the other groups (HP-ASCs > HP-ASCs + CBMNCs ≧ CBMNCs > PBS) (p<0.05). However, the combined group of HP-ASCs and CBMNCs had more significant angiogenesis than the other groups (HP-ASCs + CBMNCs > CBMNCs > HP-ASCs > PBS) (p <0.05).ConclusionsHP-ASCs alone had a greater potential in improving cardiac function in AMI rats. However, the combination of HP-ASCs and CBMNCs had a better result in angiogenesis.
