BACKGROUND Cell therapy approaches for biologic cardiac repair hold great promises, although basic fundamental issues remain poorly understood. In the present study we examined the effects of timing and routes of administration of bone marrow cells (BMC) post-myocardial infarction (MI) and the efficacy of an injectable biopolymer scaffold to improve cardiac cell retention and function. METHOD...
It has been shown that the adeno-associated virus (AAV) vector can deliver the VEGF gene efficiently into the ischemic mouse myocardium. However, the AAV genomes can be found in extracardiac organs after intramyocardial injection. To limit unwanted VEGF expression in organs other than the heart, we tested the use of the cardiac myosin light chain 2v (MLC-2v) promoter and the hypoxia-response el...
A recent trend has emerged that involves myocardial injection of biomaterials, containing cells or acellular, following myocardial infarction (MI) to influence the remodeling response through both biological and mechanical effects. Despite the number of different materials injected in these approaches, there has been little investigation into the importance of material properties on therapeutic...
BACKGROUND To improve the efficacy of bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) therapy targeted to infarcted myocardium, we investigated whether a self-setting silanized hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (Si-HPMC) hydrogel seeded with MSC (MSC+hydrogel) could preserve cardiac function and attenuate left ventricular (LV) remodeling during an 8-week follow-up study in a rat model of myocardial...
OBJECTIVES Chronic heart failure after myocardial infarction is still a serious problem without a fundamental therapy. Direct intramyocardial transplantation of bone marrow cells (BMC) is promising but difficult to perform. Therefore, cardiac effect of experimental intravenous application of BMC after myocardial infarction (MI) is evaluated. METHODS 20 Lewis rats underwent suture ligation of ...
BACKGROUND Hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) is one of the major angiogenic factors being studied for the treatment of ischemic heart diseases. Our previous study demonstrated adenovirus-HGF was effective in myocardial ischemia models. The first clinical safety study showed a positive effect in patients with severe and diffused triple coronary disease. METHODS 12 Pigs were randomized (1:1) to re...
MRI for in vivo stem cell tracking remains controversial. Here we tested the hypothesis that MRI can track the long-term fate of the superparamagnetic iron oxide (SPIO) nanoparticles labelled mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) following intramyocardially injection in AMI rats. MSCs (1 × 10(6)) from male rats doubly labeled with SPIO and DAPI were injected 2 weeks after myocardial infarction. The con...
Cardiovascular protein therapeutics such as neuregulin (NRG1) and acidic-fibroblast growth factor (FGF1) requires new formulation strategies that allow for sustained bioavailability of the drug in the infarcted myocardium. However, there is no FDA-approved injectable protein delivery platform due to translational concerns about biomaterial administration through cardiac catheters. We therefore ...
BACKGROUND Atherosclerotic epicardial coronary arteries are a major cause of acute myocardial infarction (AMI). Recently, we found that intramyocardial capillaries may also play a role in AMI induction. We have now evaluated intramyocardial capillaries using ultrastructural analysis in AMI patients. METHODS 43 AMI patients (with AMI in the left ventricle) and 27 controls. No patient included ...
Dyspnea and angina have been described in patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM). Given the complexity of the coronary microcirculation, the pathophysiological mechanisms of angina are discussed. The last generation of echo devices allows the investigation of epicardial coronary flow by means of the standard transthoracic approach (TTE). In the present study we describe 5 patients affe...
