Mesenchymal stromal cells (MSC) repair infarcted hearts mainly through paracrine mechanisms.

We tested whether a synthetic extracellular matrix mimic, a hydrogel containing heparin (H-HG), could ameliorate MSC engraftment and binding/release of SF, thus improving MSC therapy efficacy.
In vitro, rat bone-marrow MSC (rBM-MSC) were seeded and grown into H-HG. Under normoxia, the hydrogel did not affect cell survival (rBM-MSC survival >90% at each time point tested); vice versa, under hypoxia the biomaterial resulted to be protective for the cells (p < .001 vs rBM-MSC alone).
H-HG or control PEG hydrogels (HG) were incubated with VEGF or bFGF for binding/release quantification. Data showed significantly higher amount of VEGF and bFGF bound by H-HG compared with HG (p < .05) and a constant release over time.
In vivo, myocardial infarction (MI) was induced in female Sprague Dawley rats by permanent coronary ligation. One week later, saline, rBM-MSC, H-HG or rBM-MSC/H-HG were injected in the infarct zone. The co-injection of rBM-MSC/H-HG into infarcted hearts significantly increased cardiac function. Importantly, we observed a significant gain in MSC engraftment, reduction of ventricular remodeling and stimulation of neo-vasculogenesis. We also documented higher amounts of several pro-angiogenic factors in hearts treated with rBM-MSC/H-HG.
Our data show that H-HG increases MSC engraftment, efficiently fine tunes the paracrine MSC actions and improves cardiac function in infarcted rat hearts.
Transplantation of MSC is a promising treatment for ischemic heart disease, but low cell engraftment has so far limited its efficacy. The enzymatically degradable H-HG that we developed is able to increase MSC retention/engraftment and, at the same time, to fine-tune the paracrine effects mediated by the cells. Most importantly, the co-transplantation of MSC and H-HG in a rat model of ischemic cardiomyopathy improved heart function through a significant reduction in ventricular remodeling/scarring and amelioration in neo-vasculogenesis/endogenous cardiac regeneration. These beneficial effects are comparable to those obtained by others using a much greater number of cells, strengthening the efficacy of the biomaterial used in increasing the therapeutic effects of MSC. Given its efficacy and safety, documented by the absence of immunoreaction, our strategy appears readily translatable to clinical scenarios.</description><identifier>ISSN: 1742-7061</identifier><identifier>EISSN: 1878-7568</identifier><identifier>DOI: 10.1016/j.actbio.2018.01.005</identifier><identifier>PMID: 29341932</identifier><language>eng</language><publisher>England: Elsevier Ltd</publisher><subject>Angiogenesis ; Animals ; Binding ; Biomaterial ; Biomaterials ; Biomedical materials ; Biomimetic Materials - chemistry ; Bone marrow ; Bone Marrow Cells - metabolism ; Bone Marrow Cells - pathology ; Cardiomyopathy ; Cell survival ; Cells, Immobilized - metabolism ; Cells, Immobilized - pathology ; Cells, Immobilized - transplantation ; Coinjection ; Effectiveness ; Extracellular matrix ; Extracellular Matrix - chemistry ; Fibroblast growth factor 2 ; Heart ; Heart attacks ; Heparin ; Hydrogel ; Hydrogels ; Hydrogels - chemistry ; Hypoxia ; In vitro methods and tests ; Ischemia ; Male ; Mesenchymal Stem Cell Transplantation ; Mesenchymal Stem Cells - metabolism ; Mesenchymal Stem Cells - pathology ; Mesenchymal stromal cells ; Mesenchyme ; Myocardial infarction ; Myocardial Ischemia - metabolism ; Myocardial Ischemia - pathology ; Myocardial Ischemia - therapy ; Paracrine effect ; Paracrine signalling ; Rats ; Rats, Sprague-Dawley ; Stromal cells ; Survival ; Therapy ; Vascular endothelial growth factor ; Ventricle</subject><ispartof>Acta biomaterialia, 2018-04, Vol.70, p.71-83</ispartof><rights>2018 Acta Materialia Inc.</rights><rights>Copyright © 2018 Acta Materialia Inc.

Mesenchymal stromal cells (MSC) repair infarcted hearts mainly through paracrine mechanisms. Low cell engraftment limits the release of soluble paracrine factors (SF) over time and, consequently, MSC efficacy. We tested whether a synthetic extracellular matrix mimic, a hydrogel containing heparin (H-HG), could ameliorate MSC engraftment and binding/release of SF, thus improving MSC therapy efficacy.
In vitro, rat bone-marrow MSC (rBM-MSC) were seeded and grown into H-HG. Under normoxia, the hydrogel did not affect cell survival (rBM-MSC survival >90% at each time point tested); vice versa, under hypoxia the biomaterial resulted to be protective for the cells (p < .001 vs rBM-MSC alone).
H-HG or control PEG hydrogels (HG) were incubated with VEGF or bFGF for binding/release quantification. Data showed significantly higher amount of VEGF and bFGF bound by H-HG compared with HG (p < .05) and a constant release over time.
In vivo, myocardial infarction (MI) was induced in female Sprague Dawley rats by permanent coronary ligation. One week later, saline, rBM-MSC, H-HG or rBM-MSC/H-HG were injected in the infarct zone. The co-injection of rBM-MSC/H-HG into infarcted hearts significantly increased cardiac function. Importantly, we observed a significant gain in MSC engraftment, reduction of ventricular remodeling and stimulation of neo-vasculogenesis. We also documented higher amounts of several pro-angiogenic factors in hearts treated with rBM-MSC/H-HG.
Our data show that H-HG increases MSC engraftment, efficiently fine tunes the paracrine MSC actions and improves cardiac function in infarcted rat hearts.
