[PMID: 37952359 DOI: 10.1016/j.biopha.2023.115870] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/13/2023] [Revised: 11/07/2023] [Accepted: 11/07/2023] [Indexed: 11/14/2023] Open
Abstract
Cell therapy is an important topic in the field of regeneration medicine that is gaining attention within the scientific community. However, its potential for treatment in coronary heart disease (CHD) has yet to be established. Several various strategies, types of cells, routes of distribution, and supporting procedures have been tried and refined to trigger heart rejuvenation in CHD. However, only a few of them result in a real considerable promise for clinical usage. In this review, we give an update on techniques and clinical studies of cell treatment as used to cure CHD that are now ongoing or have been completed in the previous five years. We also highlight the emerging efficacy of stem cell treatment for CHD. We specifically examine and comment on current breakthroughs in cell treatment applied to CHD, including the most effective types of cells, transport modalities, engineering, and biochemical approaches used in this context. We believe the current review will be helpful for the researcher to distill this information and design future studies to overcome the challenges faced by this revolutionary approach for CHD.

[PMID: 37899988 PMCID: PMC10613116 DOI: 10.1155/2023/4450772] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/20/2022] [Revised: 09/05/2023] [Accepted: 09/11/2023] [Indexed: 10/31/2023] Open
Abstract
Objective To determine prognostic role of endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs) in intensive care patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI). Materials and Methods From December 2018 to July 2021, a total of 91 eligible patients with AMI were consecutively examined in a single intensive care unit (ICU) in China. Patients with a history of acute coronary artery disease were excluded from the study. Samples were collected within 24 hr of onset of symptoms. EPCs, defined as coexpression of CD34+/CD133+ cells or CD133+/CD34+/KDR+, were studied using flow cytometry and categorized by quartiles. Based on the 28-days mortality outcome, the patients were further divided into two groups: death and survival. The study incorporated various variables, including cardiovascular risk factors such as body mass index, hypertension, diabetes, hypercholesterolemia, atherosclerotic burden, and medication history, as well as clinical characteristics such as APACHEⅡscore, central venous-arterial carbon dioxide difference (GAP), homocysteine, creatinine, C-reactive protein, HbAlc, and cardiac index. Cox regression analysis was employed to conduct a multivariate analysis. Results A total of 91 patients with AMI who were admitted to the ICU were deemed eligible for inclusion in the study. Among these patients, 23 (25.3%) died from various causes during the follow-up period. The counts of EPCs were found to be significantly higher in the survival group compared to the death group (P < 0.05). In the univariate analysis, it was observed that the 28-days mortality rate was associated with the several factors, including the APACHEⅡscore (P=0.00), vasoactive inotropic score (P=0.03), GAP (P=0.00), HCY (P=0.00), creatinine (P=0.00), C-reactive protein (P=0.00), HbAlc (P=0.00), CI (P=0.01), quartiles of CD34+/CD133+ cells (P=0.00), and quartiles of CD34+/CD133+/KDR+ cells (P=0.00). CD34+/CD133+/KDR+ cells retained statistical significance in Cox regression models even after controlling for clinical variables (HR: 6.258 × 10-10 and P=0.001). Nevertheless, no significant correlation was observed between CD34+/CD133+ cells and all-cause mortality. Conclusions The decreased EPCs levels, especially for CD34+/CD133+/KDR+ cells subsets, were an independent risk factor for 28-days mortality in AMI patients.

Bone Marrow Cells Improve Coronary Flow Reserve in Ischemic Nonrevascularized Myocardium: A MiHeart/IHD Quantitative Perfusion CMR Substudy. JACC Cardiovasc Imaging 2022; 15:812-824. [PMID: 35512954 DOI: 10.1016/j.jcmg.2021.12.011] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/26/2021] [Revised: 12/20/2021] [Accepted: 12/23/2021] [Indexed: 01/05/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVES This study investigated whether intramyocardial bone marrow-derived hematopoietic progenitor cells (BMCs) increase coronary flow reserve (CFR) in ischemic myocardial regions where direct revascularization was unsuitable. BACKGROUND Patients with diffuse coronary artery disease frequently undergo incomplete myocardial revascularization, which increases their risk for future adverse cardiovascular outcomes. The residual regional ischemia related to both untreated epicardial lesions and small vessel disease usually contributes to the disease burden. METHODS The MiHeart/IHD study randomized patients with diffuse coronary artery disease undergoing incomplete coronary artery bypass grafting to receive BMCs or placebo in ischemic myocardial regions. After the procedure, 78 patients underwent cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) at 1, 6, and 12 months and were included in this cardiac magnetic resonance substudy with perfusion quantification. Segments were classified as target (injected), adjacent (surrounding the injection site), and remote from injection site. RESULTS Of 1,248 segments, 269 were target (22%), 397 (32%) adjacent, and 582 (46%) remote. The target had significantly lower CFR at baseline (1.40 ± 0.79 vs 1.64 ± 0.89 in adjacent and 1.79 ± 0.79 in remote; both P < 0.05). BMCs significantly increased CFR in target and adjacent segments at 6 and 12 months compared with placebo. In target regions, there was a progressive treatment effect (27.1% at 6 months, P = 0.037, 42.2% at 12 months, P = 0.001). In the adjacent segments, CFR increased by 21.8% (P = 0.023) at 6 months, which persisted until 12 months (22.6%; P = 0.022). Remote segments in both the BMC and placebo groups experienced similar improvements in CFR (not significant at 12 months compared with baseline). CONCLUSIONS BMCs, injected in severely ischemic regions unsuitable for direct revascularization, led to the largest CFR improvements, which progressed up to 12 months, compared with smaller but persistent CFR changes in adjacent and no improvement in remote segments.

Abstract
The metabolically active retina obtains essential lipids by endogenous biosynthesis and from the systemic circulation. Clinical studies provide limited and sometimes conflicting evidence as to the relationships between circulating lipid levels and the development and progression of diabetic retinopathy in people with diabetes. Cardiovascular-system-focused clinical trials that also evaluated some retinal outcomes demonstrate the potential protective power of lipid-lowering therapies in diabetic retinopathy and some trials with ocular primary endpoints are in progress. Although triacylglycerol-lowering therapies with fibrates afforded some protection against diabetic retinopathy, the effect was independent of changes in traditional blood lipid classes. While systemic LDL-cholesterol lowering with statins did not afford protection against diabetic retinopathy in most clinical trials, and none of the trials focused on retinopathy as the main outcome, data from very large database studies suggest the possible effectiveness of statins. Potential challenges in these studies are discussed, including lipid-independent effects of fibrates and statins, modified lipoproteins and retinal-specific effects of lipid-lowering drugs. Dysregulation of retinal-specific cholesterol metabolism leading to retinal cholesterol accumulation and potential formation of cholesterol crystals are also addressed.

Abstract
Exogenous cell-based therapy has emerged as a promising new strategy to facilitate repair of hearts damaged by acute or chronic injury. However, the field of cell-based therapy is handicapped by the lack of standardized definitions and terminology, making comparisons across studies challenging. Even the term "stem cell therapy" is misleading because only a small percentage of cells derived from adult bone marrow, peripheral blood, or adipose tissue meets the accepted hematopoietic or developmental definition of stem cells. Furthermore, cells (stem or otherwise) are dynamic biological products, meaning that their surface marker expression, phenotypic and functional characteristics, and the products they secrete in response to their microenvironment can change. It is also important to point out that most surface markers are seldom specific for a cell type. In this article, we discuss the lack of consistency in the descriptive terminology used in cell-based therapies and offer guidelines aimed at standardizing nomenclature and definitions to improve communication among investigators and the general public.

Identification of a CTRP9 C-Terminal polypeptide capable of enhancing bone-derived mesenchymal stem cell cardioprotection through promoting angiogenic exosome production. Redox Biol 2021; 41:101929. [PMID: 33714738 PMCID: PMC7966869 DOI: 10.1016/j.redox.2021.101929] [Citation(s) in RCA: 15] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/07/2021] [Revised: 02/07/2021] [Accepted: 02/28/2021] [Indexed: 12/25/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Mesenchymal stem cell therapy improves ischemic heart failure via incompletely understood mechanisms. C1q-TNFα related protein-9 (CTRP9) is a novel anti-oxidative cardiokine capable of improving the local microenvironment and cell survival by its c-terminal active globular domain (gCTRP9). The current study attempted to: 1) identify active gCTRP9 c-terminal polypeptides with stem cell protective function; 2) determine whether a lead polypeptide may enable/enhance cortical bone-derived mesenchymal stem cell (CBSC) cardioprotection against post-myocardial infarction (post-MI) remodeling; and 3) define the responsible underlying cellular/molecular mechanisms. METHODS AND RESULTS Utilizing I-TASSER structure prediction and 3-D active site modeling, we cloned and purified 3 gCTRP9 fragments (CTRP9-237, CTRP9-277, and CTRP9-281). Their activation of cell salvage kinase was compared against gCTRP9. Among the three fragments, CTRP9-281 (a 45 residue-containing polypeptide) exerted comparable or greater ERK1/2 activation compared to gCTRP9. Treatment with CTRP9-281 or gCTRP9 significantly increased CBSC proliferation and migration, and attenuated oxidative stress-induced CBSC apoptosis. CTRP9-281 and gCTRP9 comparably upregulated SOD2 and SOD3 expression. However, CTRP9-281, not gCTRP9, upregulated FGF2 and VEGFA expression/secretion in an ERK1/2 dependent manner. Administration of gCTRP9 or CTRP9-281 alone attenuated post-MI cardiac dysfunction and improved CBSC retention in the infarcted heart in similar fashion. However, CTRP9-281 exerted greater synergistic effect with CBSC than gCTRP9 related to pro-angiogenic, anti-fibrotic, and anti-remodeling effects. Mechanistically, CTRP9-281 significantly increased SOD2-rich and VEGFA-rich exosome production by CBSC. Exosomes from CTRP9-281 treated CBSC significantly attenuated oxidative stress-induced cardiomyocyte apoptosis in vitro. An exosome generation inhibitor attenuated CTRP9-281 enhancement of CBSC cardioprotection in vivo. CONCLUSION We identified a CTRP9 polypeptide that upregulates SOD2/SOD3 expression and improves CBSC survival/retention, similar to gCTRP9. Moreover, CTRP9-281 stimulates VEGFA-rich exosome production by CBSC, exerting superior pro-angiogenic, anti-fibrotic, and cardioprotective actions.

Abstract
Mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) transplantation after myocardial infarction (MI) has been shown to effectively limit the infarct area in numerous clinical and preclinical studies. However, the primary mechanism associated with this activity in MSC transplantation therapy remains unclear. Blood supply is fundamental for the survival of myocardial tissue, and the formation of an efficient vascular network is a prerequisite for blood flow. The paracrine function of MSCs, which is throughout the neovascularization process, including MSC mobilization, migration, homing, adhesion and retention, regulates angiogenesis and vasculogenesis through existing endothelial cells (ECs) and endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs). Additionally, MSCs have the ability to differentiate into multiple cell lineages and can be mobilized and migrate to ischemic tissue to differentiate into ECs, pericytes and smooth muscle cells in some degree, which are necessary components of blood vessels. These characteristics of MSCs support the view that these cells improve ischemic myocardium through angiogenesis and vasculogenesis. In this review, the results of recent clinical and preclinical studies are discussed to illustrate the processes and mechanisms of neovascularization in ischemic heart disease.

The cardioprotective and anxiolytic effects of Chaihujialonggumuli granule on rats with anxiety after acute myocardial infarction is partly mediated by suppression of CXCR4/NF-κB/GSDMD pathway. Biomed Pharmacother 2021; 133:111015. [PMID: 33232924 DOI: 10.1016/j.biopha.2020.111015] [Citation(s) in RCA: 10] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/12/2020] [Revised: 11/04/2020] [Accepted: 11/11/2020] [Indexed: 12/17/2022] Open
Abstract
AIMS Over-expression of CXCR4 activates nuclear translocation of NF-κB, induces high expression of NLRP3, GSDMD, IL-1β and IL-18, which promotes severe inflammatory response following myocardial infarction. Previous studies revealed inflammation induces anxiety after myocardial infarction. The Chaihujialonggumuli granule has anti-inflammatory properties and could tranquillize mind. But the mechanism of its efficacy remains unknown. This study was to investigate the possible mechanism of BFG on cardioprotective and anxiolytic. METHODS The expression of CXCR4, NF-κB, NLRP3and GSDMD was measured with western-blot, QRT-PCR. The expression location of CXCR4, NLRP3, GSDMD were determined by immunohistochemistry. IL-1β、IL-18 in the peripheral blood were measured by ELISA. HE staining, Masson staining and transmission electron microscopy were used to observe morphological changes of cardiomyocytes. Echocardiography was used to assess cardiac function after cardiac surgery. Elevated cross maze test and open field test were used to evaluate behaviours. Western blot was used to detect the protein expressions of 5-HT, DA, IL-1β, IL-18 and neuron damage was investigated by Nissl staining in the hippocampus. RESULTS The up-regulation of CXCR4, NF-κB, NLRP3 and GSDMD were found in the infarcted area after left coronary artery ligation. Pathological staining and analysis showed that more severe inflammatory cytokines infiltration, myocardial fibrosis, were found in myocardial tissue of the complex group rats. And when compared to the sham group, the levels of IL-1β, IL-18 was increased of the complex group in both peripheral blood and brain. Behavioural test and echocardiography indicated that the rats in complex group exploration behaviours was significantly reduced, and with poor cardiac functional recovery. The AMD3100 had an inhibitory impact of CXCR4 on the activition of its downstream effectors, alleviating inflammatory reaction. Furthermore, the BFG decreased the expression level of CXCR4, NF-κB, GSDMD, NLRP3 in the infarcted area after myocardial infarction, when compared to the complex group. The assays in the brain indicated the BFG suppressed expression and activity of IL-1β, IL-18, and improved 5-HT and DA synthesis. CONCLUSIONS In sum, our study indicated that BFG may reduce inflammation, treat co-existing anxiety after myocardial infarction through inhibition of CXCR4/NF-κB/GSDMD signalling.

Abstract
Vasoplegia observed post cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) is associated with substantial morbidity, multiple organ failure and mortality. Circulating counts of hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) and endothelial progenitor cells (EPC) are potential markers of neo-vascularization and vascular repair. However, the significance of changes in the circulating levels of these progenitors in perioperative CPB, and their association with post-CPB vasoplegia, are currently unexplored. We enumerated HSC and EPC counts, via flow cytometry, at different time-points during CPB in 19 individuals who underwent elective cardiac surgery. These 19 individuals were categorized into two groups based on severity of post-operative vasoplegia, a clinically insignificant vasoplegic Group 1 (G1) and a clinically significant vasoplegic Group 2 (G2). Differential changes in progenitor cell counts during different stages of surgery were compared across these two groups. Machine-learning classifiers (logistic regression and gradient boosting) were employed to determine if differential changes in progenitor counts could aid the classification of individuals into these groups. Enumerating progenitor cells revealed an early and significant increase in the circulating counts of CD34+ and CD34+CD133+ hematopoietic stem cells (HSC) in G1 individuals, while these counts were attenuated in G2 individuals. Additionally, EPCs (CD34+VEGFR2+) were lower in G2 individuals compared to G1. Gradient boosting outperformed logistic regression in assessing the vasoplegia grouping based on the fold change in circulating CD 34+ levels. Our findings indicate that a lack of early response of CD34+ cells and CD34+CD133+ HSCs might serve as an early marker for development of clinically significant vasoplegia after CPB.

Abstract
Rationale: The impact of lung insult on the bone marrow (BM) and subsequent disease is unknown.Objectives: To study alterations in the BM in response to lung injury/fibrosis and examine their impact on subsequent lung insult.Methods: BM cells from control or bleomycin-treated donor mice were transplanted into naive mice, which were subsequently evaluated for bleomycin-induced pulmonary fibrosis. In addition, the effect of prior bleomycin treatment on subsequent fibrosis was examined in wild-type and B7H3-knockout mice. Samples from patients with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis were analyzed for potential clinical relevance of the findings.Measurements and Main Results: Recipient mice transplanted with BM from bleomycin-pretreated donors showed significant exacerbation of subsequent fibrosis with increased B7H3+ cell numbers and a T-helper cell type 2-skewed phenotype. Pretreatment with a minimally fibrogenic/nonfibrogenic dose of bleomycin also caused exacerbation, but not in B7H3-deficient mice. Exacerbation was not observed if the mice received naive BM cell transplant after the initial bleomycin pretreatment. Soluble B7H3 stimulated BM Ly6Chi monocytic cell expansion in vitro and caused similar expansion in the lung in vivo. Notably, soluble B7H3 was elevated in plasma of patients with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis and in BAL fluid in those with acute exacerbation. Finally, ST2 deficiency diminished the bleomycin-induced B7H3 and IL-13 upregulation, suggesting a role for type 2 innate lymphoid cells.Conclusions: Pulmonary fibrosis caused significant alterations in BM with expansion and activation of monocytic cells, which enhanced fibrosis when transplanted to naive recipients with potential mediation by a novel role for B7H3 in the pathophysiology of pulmonary fibrosis in both mice and humans.

Abstract
Lower numbers of progenitor cells (PCs) in peripheral blood (PB) have been associated with cardiovascular events in high-risk populations. Therapies aiming to increase the numbers of PCs in circulation have been developed, but clinical trials did not result in better outcomes. It is currently unknown what causes the reduction in PB PC numbers: whether it is primary depletion of the progenitor cell reserve, or a reduced mobilization of PCs from the bone marrow (BM). In this study, we examine if PB and BM PC numbers predict Amputation-Free Survival (AFS) in patients with Severe Limb Ischemia (SLI). We obtained PB and BM from 160 patients enrolled in a clinical trial investigating BM cell therapy for SLI. Samples were incubated with antibodies against CD34, KDR, CD133, CD184, CD14, CD105, CD140b, and CD31; PC populations were enumerated by flow cytometry. Higher PB CD34+ and CD133+ PC numbers were related to AFS (Both Hazard Ratio [HRevent] = 0.56, p = 0.003 and p = 0.0007, respectively). AFS was not associated with the other cell populations in PB. BM PC numbers correlated with PB PC numbers and showed similar HRs for AFS. A further subdivision based on relative BM and PB PC numbers showed that BM PC numbers, rather than mobilization, associated with AFS. Both PB and BM PC numbers are associated with AFS independently from traditional risk factor and show very similar risk profiles. Our data suggest that depletion of the progenitor cell reserve, rather than decreased PC mobilization, underlies the association between PB PC numbers and cardiovascular risk.

Abstract
Importance Stem cell therapy is a promising treatment strategy for patients with heart failure, which accounts for more than 10% of deaths in the United States annually. Despite more than a decade of research, further investigation is still needed to determine whether stem cell regenerative therapy is an effective treatment strategy and can be routinely implemented in clinical practice. Objective To describe the progress in cardiac stem cell regenerative therapy using adult stem cells and to highlight the merits and limitations of clinical trials performed to date. Evidence Review Information for this review was obtained through a search of PubMed and the Cochrane database for English-language studies published between January 1, 2000, and July 26, 2016. Twenty-nine randomized clinical trials and 7 systematic reviews and meta-analyses were included in this review. Findings Although adult stem cells were once believed to have the ability to create new heart tissue, preclinical studies suggest that these cells release cardioprotective paracrine factors that activate endogenous pathways, leading to myocardial repair. Subsequent randomized clinical trials, most of which used autologous bone marrow mononuclear cells, have found only a modest benefit in patients receiving stem cell therapy. The lack of a significant benefit may result from variations in trial methods, discrepancies in reporting, and an overreliance on surrogate end points. Conclusions and Relevance Although stem cell therapy for cardiovascular disease is not yet ready for routine clinical application, significant progress continues to be made. Physicians should be aware of the current status of this treatment so that they can better inform their patients who may be in search of alternative therapies.

Abstract
Cell therapy has been identified as an effective method to regenerate damaged tissue. Adult stem cells, also known as somatic stem cells or resident stem cells, are a rare population of undifferentiated cells, located within a differentiated organ, in a specialized structure, called a niche, which maintains the microenvironments that regulate the growth and development of adult stem cells. The adult stem cells are self-renewing, clonogenic, and multipotent in nature, and their main role is to maintain the tissue homeostasis. They can be activated to proliferate and differentiate into the required type of cells, upon the loss of cells or injury to the tissue. Adult stem cells have been identified in many tissues including blood, intestine, skin, muscle, brain, and heart. Extensive preclinical and clinical studies have demonstrated the structural and functional regeneration capabilities of these adult stem cells, such as bone marrow-derived mononuclear cells, hematopoietic stem cells, mesenchymal stromal/stem cells, resident adult stem cells, induced pluripotent stem cells, and umbilical cord stem cells. In this review, we focus on the human therapies, utilizing adult stem cells for their regenerative capabilities in the treatment of cardiac, brain, pancreatic, and eye disorders.

Loss of Angiotensin-Converting Enzyme 2 Exacerbates Diabetic Retinopathy by Promoting Bone Marrow Dysfunction. Stem Cells 2018; 36:1430-1440.

Abstract
Angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) is the primary enzyme of the vasoprotective axis of the renin angiotensin system (RAS). We tested the hypothesis that loss of ACE2 would exacerbate diabetic retinopathy by promoting bone marrow dysfunction. ACE2-/y were crossed with Akita mice, a model of type 1 diabetes. When comparing the bone marrow of the ACE2-/y -Akita mice to that of Akita mice, we observed a reduction of both short-term and long-term repopulating hematopoietic stem cells, a shift of hematopoiesis toward myelopoiesis, and an impairment of lineage- c-kit+ hematopoietic stem/progenitor cell (HS/PC) migration and proliferation. Migratory and proliferative dysfunction of these cells was corrected by exposure to angiotensin-1-7 (Ang-1-7), the protective peptide generated by ACE2. Over the duration of diabetes examined, ACE2 deficiency led to progressive reduction in electrical responses assessed by electroretinography and to increases in neural infarcts observed by fundus photography. Compared with Akita mice, ACE2-/y -Akita at 9-months of diabetes showed an increased number of acellular capillaries indicative of more severe diabetic retinopathy. In diabetic and control human subjects, CD34+ cells, a key bone marrow HS/PC population, were assessed for changes in mRNA levels for MAS, the receptor for Ang-1-7. Levels were highest in CD34+ cells from diabetics without retinopathy. Higher serum Ang-1-7 levels predicted protection from development of retinopathy in diabetics. Treatment with Ang-1-7 or alamandine restored the impaired migration function of CD34+ cells from subjects with retinopathy. These data support that activation of the protective RAS within HS/PCs may represents a therapeutic strategy for prevention of diabetic retinopathy. Stem Cells 2018;36:1430-1440.

Abstract
Of all biologic matrices, decellularized extracellular matrix (dECM) has emerged as a promising tool used either alone or when combined with other biologics in the fields of tissue engineering or regenerative medicine - both preclinically and clinically. dECM provides a native cellular environment that combines its unique composition and architecture. It can be widely obtained from native organs of different species after being decellularized and is entitled to provide necessary cues to cells homing. In this review, the superiority of the macro- and micro-architecture of dECM is described as are methods by which these unique characteristics are being harnessed to aid in the repair and regeneration of organs and tissues. Finally, an overview of the state of research regarding the clinical use of different matrices and the common challenges faced in using dECM are provided, with possible solutions to help translate naturally derived dECM matrices into more robust clinical use. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE Ideal scaffolds mimic nature and provide an environment recognized by cells as proper. Biologically derived matrices can provide biological cues, such as sites for cell adhesion, in addition to the mechanical support provided by synthetic matrices. Decellularized extracellular matrix is the closest scaffold to nature, combining unique micro- and macro-architectural characteristics with an equally unique complex composition. The decellularization process preserves structural integrity, ensuring an intact vasculature. As this multifunctional structure can also induce cell differentiation and maturation, it could become the gold standard for scaffolds.

Abstract
Cell therapy is a central issue of regenerative medicine and is raising a growing interest in the scientific community, but its full therapeutic potential in coronary heart disease (CHD) has not been reached yet. Several different methods, cell types, delivery routes, and supporting techniques have been attempted and improved to elicit cardiac regeneration in CHD, but only some of them showed a really convincing potential for the use in clinical practice. Here we provide an update on approaches and clinical trials of cell therapy applied to CHD, which are ongoing or that have been realized in the last 5 years. Moreover, we discuss the evidence collected so far in favor or against the validity of stem cell therapy for CHD. In particular, we review and comment the recent advances in cell therapy applied to CHD, the most promising cell types, delivery strategies, biochemical and engineering techniques that have been adopted in this context.

Abstract
RATIONALE Circulating progenitor cells (CPCs) mobilize in response to ischemic injury, but their predictive value remains unknown in acute coronary syndrome (ACS). OBJECTIVE We aimed to investigate the number of CPCs in ACS compared with those with stable coronary artery disease (CAD), relationship between bone marrow PCs and CPCs, and whether CPC counts predict mortality in patients with ACS. METHODS AND RESULTS In 2028 patients, 346 had unstable angina, 183 had an acute myocardial infarction (AMI), and the remaining 1499 patients had stable CAD. Patients with ACS were followed for the primary end point of all-cause death. CPCs were enumerated by flow cytometry as mononuclear cells expressing a combination of CD34+, CD133+, vascular endothelial growth factor receptor 2+, or chemokine (C-X-C motif) receptor 4+. CPC counts were higher in subjects with AMI compared those with stable CAD even after adjustment for age, sex, race, body mass index, renal function, hypertension, diabetes mellitus, hyperlipidemia, and smoking; CD34+, CD34+/CD133+, CD34+/CXCR4+, and CD34+/VEGFR2+ CPC counts were 19%, 25%, 28%, and 142% higher in those with AMI, respectively, compared with stable CAD. There were strong correlations between the concentrations of CPCs and the PC counts in bone marrow aspirates in 20 patients with AMI. During a 2 (interquartile range, 1.31-2.86)-year follow-up period of 529 patients with ACS, 12.4% died. In Cox regression models adjusted for age, sex, body mass index, heart failure history, estimated glomerular filtration rate, and AMI, subjects with low CD34+ cell counts had a 2.46-fold (95% confidence interval, 1.18-5.13) increase in all-cause mortality, P=0.01. CD34+/CD133+ and CD34+/CXCR4+, but not CD34+/VEGFR2+ PC counts, had similar associations with mortality. Results were validated in a separate cohort of 238 patients with ACS. CONCLUSIONS CPC levels are significantly higher in patients after an AMI compared with those with stable CAD and reflect bone marrow PC content. Among patients with ACS, a lower number of hematopoietic-enriched CPCs are associated with a higher mortality.

Abstract
Ischemic heart diseases (IHDs) remain major public health problems with high rates of morbidity and mortality worldwide. Despite significant advances, current therapeutic approaches are unable to rescue the extensive and irreversible loss of cardiomyocytes caused by severe ischemia. Over the past 16 years, stem cell-based therapy has been recognized as an innovative strategy for cardiac repair/regeneration and functional recovery after IHDs. Although substantial preclinical animal studies using a variety of stem/progenitor cells have shown promising results, there is a tremendous degree of skepticism in the clinical community as many stem cell trials do not confer any beneficial effects. How to accelerate stem cell-based therapy toward successful clinical application attracts considerate attention. However, many important issues need to be fully addressed. In this Review, we have described and compared the effects of different types of stem cells with their dose, delivery routes, and timing that have been routinely tested in recent preclinical and clinical findings. We have also discussed the potential mechanisms of action of stem cells, and explored the role and underlying regulatory components of stem cell-derived secretomes/exosomes in myocardial repair. Furthermore, we have critically reviewed the different strategies for optimizing both donor stem cells and the target cardiac microenvironments to enhance the engraftment and efficacy of stem cells, highlighting their clinical translatability and potential limitation.

Peripheral Blood Cytokine Levels After Acute Myocardial Infarction: IL-1β- and IL-6-Related Impairment of Bone Marrow Function. Circ Res 2017; 120:1947-1957. [PMID: 28490433 DOI: 10.1161/circresaha.116.309947] [Citation(s) in RCA: 30] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/13/2016] [Revised: 04/24/2017] [Accepted: 05/09/2017] [Indexed: 12/15/2022]
Abstract
RATIONALE Intracoronary infusion of bone marrow (BM) mononuclear cells after acute myocardial infarction (AMI) has led to limited improvement in left ventricular function. Although experimental AMI models have implicated cytokine-related impairment of progenitor cell function, this response has not been investigated in humans. OBJECTIVE To test the hypothesis that peripheral blood (PB) cytokines predict BM endothelial progenitor cell colony outgrowth and cardiac function after AMI. METHODS AND RESULTS BM and PB samples were collected from 87 participants 14 to 21 days after AMI and BM from healthy donors was used as a reference. Correlations between cytokine concentrations and cell phenotypes, cell functions, and post-AMI cardiac function were determined. PB interleukin-6 (IL-6) negatively correlated with endothelial colony-forming cell colony maximum in the BM of patients with AMI (estimate±SE, -0.13±0.05; P=0.007). BM from healthy individuals showed a dose-dependent decrease in endothelial colony-forming cell colony outgrowth in the presence of exogenous IL-1β or IL-6 (P<0.05). Blocking the IL-1R or IL-6R reversed cytokine impairment. In AMI study participants, the angiogenic cytokine platelet-derived growth factor BB glycoprotein correlated positively with BM-derived colony-forming unit-endothelial colony maximum (estimate±SE, 0.01±0.002; P<0.001), multipotent mesenchymal stromal cell colony maximum (estimate±SE, 0.01±0.002; P=0.002) in BM, and mesenchymal stromal cell colony maximum in PB (estimate±SE, 0.02±0.005; P<0.001). CONCLUSIONS Two weeks after AMI, increased PB platelet-derived growth factor BB glycoprotein was associated with increased BM function, whereas increased IL-6 was associated with BM impairment. Validation studies confirmed inflammatory cytokine impairment of BM that could be reversed by blocking IL-1R or IL-6R. Together, these studies suggest that blocking IL-1 or IL-6 receptors may improve the regenerative capacity of BM cells after AMI. CLINICAL TRIAL REGISTRATIONS URL: http://www.clinicaltrials.gov.

Abstract
AIMS Cardiopoietic cells, produced through cardiogenic conditioning of patients' mesenchymal stem cells, have shown preliminary efficacy. The Congestive Heart Failure Cardiopoietic Regenerative Therapy (CHART-1) trial aimed to validate cardiopoiesis-based biotherapy in a larger heart failure cohort. METHODS AND RESULTS This multinational, randomized, double-blind, sham-controlled study was conducted in 39 hospitals. Patients with symptomatic ischaemic heart failure on guideline-directed therapy (n = 484) were screened; n = 348 underwent bone marrow harvest and mesenchymal stem cell expansion. Those achieving > 24 million mesenchymal stem cells (n = 315) were randomized to cardiopoietic cells delivered endomyocardially with a retention-enhanced catheter (n = 157) or sham procedure (n = 158). Procedures were performed as randomized in 271 patients (n = 120 cardiopoietic cells, n = 151 sham). The primary efficacy endpoint was a Finkelstein-Schoenfeld hierarchical composite (all-cause mortality, worsening heart failure, Minnesota Living with Heart Failure Questionnaire score, 6-min walk distance, left ventricular end-systolic volume, and ejection fraction) at 39 weeks. The primary outcome was neutral (Mann-Whitney estimator 0.54, 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.47-0.61 [value > 0.5 favours cell treatment], P = 0.27). Exploratory analyses suggested a benefit of cell treatment on the primary composite in patients with baseline left ventricular end-diastolic volume 200-370 mL (60% of patients) (Mann-Whitney estimator 0.61, 95% CI 0.52-0.70, P = 0.015). No difference was observed in serious adverse events. One (0.9%) cardiopoietic cell patient and 9 (5.4%) sham patients experienced aborted or sudden cardiac death. CONCLUSION The primary endpoint was neutral, with safety demonstrated across the cohort. Further evaluation of cardiopoietic cell therapy in patients with elevated end-diastolic volume is warranted.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Giant cell tumor of bone (GCTB) invades extensively and metastasizes, however, the pathological grade and imaging findings are not accurate predictors of its prognosis. Thus, the aim of this study was to explore the relationships between expression of cluster of differentiation (CD)34 and matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9) and the biological behavior of GCTB with the hope of identifying predictors of prognosis. METHODS Sixty-eight patients with GCTBs attending our institution from September 2008 to August 2013 were enrolled in this prospective study and grouped according to tumor location. Relevant patient characteristics were assessed. Additionally, the expression of CD34 and MMP-9 in these patients was assayed by an immunohistochemistry staining procedure and the relationships between CD34/MMP-9 and microvessel density (MVD) analyzed by Spearman correlation analysis. RESULTS It was found that CD34 factor localizes in the cytoplasm of the endothelial cells of small blood vessels in the tumor stroma and is strongly expressed in GCTBs. In addition, radiological grading showed that there was significantly more CD34 antibody-labeled MVD in invasive than in non-invasive tumors (P < 0.05) and significantly more CD34 antibody-labeled MVD in patients who developed recurrences than in those who did not (P < 0.05). Expression of MMP-9 was localized in the cytoplasm of tumor cells and the rate of MMP-9 positivity in GCTBs was significantly higher in active and invasive tumors than in non-invasive tumors (P < 0.01). Moreover, there were significantly more MVDs in MMP-9-positive than in MMP-9 negative tumors (P < 0.01). CD34 and MMP-9 are positively correlated with MVD values in GCTBs and closely correlated with their grade of malignancy. CONCLUSION Expression of CD34 and MMP-9 accurately predicts clinical behavior detection and prognosis of GCTBs.

Abstract
The pathogenesis of cardiomyopathy and heart failure (HF) is underpinned by complex changes at subcellular, cellular and extracellular levels in the ventricular myocardium. For all of the gains that conventional treatments for HF have brought to mortality and morbidity, they do not adequately address the loss of cardiomyocyte numbers in the remodeling ventricle. Originally conceived to address this problem, cellular transplantation for HF has already gone through several stages of evolution over the past two decades. Various cell types and delivery routes have been implemented to positive effect in preclinical models of ischemic and nonischemic cardiomyopathy, with pleiotropic benefits observed in terms of myocardial remodeling, systolic and diastolic performance, perfusion, fibrosis, inflammation, metabolism and electrophysiology. To a large extent, these salubrious effects are now attributed to the indirect, paracrine capacity of transplanted stem cells to facilitate endogenous cardiac repair processes. Promising results have also followed in early phase human studies, although these have been relatively modest and somewhat inconsistent. This review details the preclinical and clinical evidence currently available regarding the use of pluripotent stem cells and adult-derived progenitor cells for cardiomyopathy and HF. It outlines the important lessons that have been learned to this point in time, and balances the promise of this exciting field against the key challenges and questions that still need to be addressed at all levels of research, to ensure that cell therapy realizes its full potential by adding to the armamentarium of HF management.

Identification of cardiovascular risk factors associated with bone marrow cell subsets in patients with STEMI: a biorepository evaluation from the CCTRN TIME and LateTIME clinical trials. Basic Res Cardiol 2016; 112:3. [PMID: 27882430 DOI: 10.1007/s00395-016-0592-z] [Citation(s) in RCA: 12] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/18/2016] [Accepted: 11/14/2016] [Indexed: 12/13/2022]
Abstract
Autologous bone marrow mononuclear cell (BM-MNC) therapy for patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) has produced inconsistent results, possibly due to BM-MNC product heterogeneity. Patient-specific cardiovascular risk factors (CRFs) may contribute to variations in BM-MNC composition. We sought to identify associations between BM-MNC subset frequencies and specific CRFs in STEMI patients. Bone marrow was collected from 191 STEMI patients enrolled in the CCTRN TIME and LateTIME trials. Relationships between BM-MNC subsets and CRFs were determined with multivariate analyses. An assessment of CRFs showed that hyperlipidemia and hypertension were associated with a higher frequency of CD11b+ cells (P = 0.045 and P = 0.016, respectively). In addition, we found that females had lower frequencies of CD11b+ (P = 0.018) and CD45+CD14+ (P = 0.028) cells than males, age was inversely associated with the frequency of CD45+CD31+ cells (P = 0.001), smoking was associated with a decreased frequency of CD45+CD31+ cells (P = 0.013), glucose level was positively associated with the frequency of CD45+CD3+ cells, and creatinine level (an indicator of renal function) was inversely associated with the frequency of CD45+CD3+ cells (P = 0.015). In conclusion, the frequencies of monocytic, lymphocytic, and angiogenic BM-MNCs varied in relation to patients' CRFs. These phenotypic variations may affect cell therapy outcomes and might be an important consideration when selecting patients for and reviewing results from autologous cell therapy trials.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Although several preclinical studies have shown that bone marrow cell (BMC) transplantation promotes cardiac recovery after myocardial infarction, clinical trials with unfractionated bone marrow have shown variable improvements in cardiac function. METHODS To determine whether in a population of post-myocardial infarction patients, functional recovery after BM transplant is associated with specific BMC subpopulation, we examined the association between BMCs with left ventricular (LV) function in the LateTIME-CCTRN trial. RESULTS In this population, we found that older individuals had higher numbers of BM CD133(+) and CD3(+) cells. Bone marrow from individuals with high body mass index had lower CD45(dim)/CD11b(dim) levels, whereas those with hypertension and higher C-reactive protein levels had higher numbers of CD133(+) cells. Smoking was associated with higher levels of CD133(+)/CD34(+)/VEGFR2(+) cells and lower levels of CD3(+) cells. Adjusted multivariate analysis indicated that CD11b(dim) cells were negatively associated with changes in LV ejection fraction and wall motion in both the infarct and border zones. Change in LV ejection fraction was positively associated with CD133(+), CD34(+), and CD45(+)/CXCR4(dim) cells as well as faster BMC growth rates in endothelial colony forming assays. CONCLUSIONS In the LateTIME population, BM composition varied with patient characteristics and treatment. Irrespective of cell therapy, recovery of LV function was greater in patients with greater BM abundance of CD133(+) and CD34(+) cells and worse in those with higher levels of CD11b(dim) cells. Bone marrow phenotype might predict clinical response before BMC therapy and administration of selected BM constituents could potentially improve outcomes of other future clinical trials.

Circulating progenitor cells and coronary microvascular dysfunction: Results from the NHLBI-sponsored Women's Ischemia Syndrome Evaluation - Coronary Vascular Dysfunction Study (WISE-CVD). Atherosclerosis 2016; 253:111-117. [PMID: 27596135 DOI: 10.1016/j.atherosclerosis.2016.08.026] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.1] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/14/2015] [Revised: 08/14/2016] [Accepted: 08/23/2016] [Indexed: 12/21/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Ischemia stimulates a reparative response resulting in mobilization of circulating progenitor cells (CPCs). We hypothesized that women with chronic myocardial ischemia from coronary microvascular disease (CMD) will mobilize CPCs. METHODS In 123 women with ischemic symptoms and signs but no obstructive coronary artery disease (CAD) enrolled in the Women's Ischemia Syndrome Evaluation - Coronary Vascular Dysfunction Study (WISE-CVD), we measured coronary flow reserve (CFR) in response to intracoronary adenosine. Peripheral blood CPCs were measured using flow cytometry for expression of CD34, CD133, CXCR4, and VEGFR2. RESULTS Subjects were 53 ± 11 years, BMI 30 ± 8; 44% hypertensive, 11% diabetic, 23% hyperlipidemic and 7% smokers. Lower CFR correlated inversely with higher levels of hematopoietic-enriched CD34+ (r = -0.23, p = 0.011), CD34+/CD133+ (r = -0.24, p = 0.008), and CD34+/CXCR4+ (r = -0.19, p = 0.036) cells. In multivariable regression analyses, after adjusting for traditional cardiovascular risk factors, lower CFR remained significantly associated with elevated levels of CD34+ (β -0.18, p = 0.042), CD34+/CD133+ (β -0.24, p = 0.036), and CD34+/CXCR4+ (β -0.22, p = 0.050) cells. We found no association between CFR and CD34+/VEGFR2+ cells. CONCLUSIONS In women with non-obstructive CAD, impaired CFR is associated with higher levels of CPCs, suggesting that chronic myocardial ischemia from CMD stimulates CPC mobilization. The functional significance of elevated CPCs in these subjects requires further investigation as a potential biomarker and treatment target.

Abstract
To determine whether the presence of ischemic heart disease (IHD) per se, or rather the co-presence of heart failure (HF), is the primum movens for less effective stem cell products in autologous stem cell therapy, we assessed numbers and function of bone marrow (BM)-derived progenitor cells in patients with coronary artery disease (n = 17), HF due to ischemic cardiomyopathy (n = 8), non-ischemic HF (n = 7), and control subjects (n = 11). Myeloid and erythroid differentiation capacity of BM-derived mononuclear cells was impaired in patients with underlying IHD but not with non-ischemic HF. Migration capacity decreased with increasing IHD severity. Hence, IHD, with or without associated cardiomyopathy, is an important determinant of progenitor cell function. No depletion of hematopoietic and endothelial progenitor cells (EPC) within the BM was observed, while circulating EPC numbers were increased in the presence of IHD, suggesting active recruitment. The observed myelosuppression was not driven by inflammation and thus other mechanisms are at play.

Abstract
Administration of bone marrow-derived mononuclear cells (BMC) may increase cardiac function after myocardial ischemia. However, the functional capacity of BMC derived from chronic heart failure (CHF) patients is significantly impaired. As modulation of the energy metabolism allows cells to match the divergent demands of the environment, we examined the regulation of energy metabolism in BMC from patients and healthy controls (HC). The glycolytic capacity of CHF-derived BMC is reduced compared to HC, whereas BMC of metabolically activated bone marrow after acute myocardial infarction reveal increased metabolism. The correlation of metabolic pathways with the functional activity of cells indicates an influence of metabolism on cell function. Reducing glycolysis without profoundly affecting ATP-production reversibly reduces invasion as well as colony forming capacity and abolishes proliferation of CD34(+) CD38(-) lin(-) hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPC). Ex vivo inhibition of glycolysis further reduced the pro-angiogenic activity of transplanted cells in a hind limb ischemia model in vivo. In contrast, inhibition of respiration, without affecting total ATP production, leads to a compensatory increase in glycolytic capacity correlating with increased colony forming capacity. Isolated CD34(+) , CXCR4(+) , and CD14(+) cells showed higher glycolytic activity compared to their negative counterparts. Metabolic activity was profoundly modulated by the composition of media used to store or culture BMC. This study provides first evidence that metabolic alterations influence the functional activity of human HSPC and BMC independent of ATP production. Changing the balance between respiration and glycolysis might be useful to improve patient-derived cells for clinical cardiac cell therapy. Stem Cells 2016;34:2236-2248.

Metformin improves the angiogenic potential of human CD34⁺ cells co-incident with downregulating CXCL10 and TIMP1 gene expression and increasing VEGFA under hyperglycemia and hypoxia within a therapeutic window for myocardial infarction. Cardiovasc Diabetol 2016; 15:27.

Abstract
Background Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the leading cause of morbidity and mortality in patients with diabetes mellitus (DM). To identify the most effective treatment for CVD, it is paramount to understand the mechanism behind cardioprotective therapies. Although metformin has been shown to reduce CVD in Type-2 DM clinical trials, the underlying mechanism remains unexplored. CD34+ cell-based therapies offer a new treatment approach to CVD. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of metformin on the angiogenic properties of CD34+ cells under conditions mimicking acute myocardial infarction in diabetes. Methods CD34+ cells were cultured in 5.5 or 16.5 mmol/L glucose ± 0.01 mmol/L metformin and then additionally ± 4 % hypoxia. The paracrine function of CD34+ cell-derived conditioned medium was assessed by measuring pro-inflammatory cytokines, vascular endothelial growth factor A (VEGFA), and using an in vitro tube formation assay for angiogenesis. Also, mRNA of CD34+ cells was assayed by microarray and genes of interest were validated by qRT-PCR. Results Metformin increased in vitro angiogenesis under hyperglycemia–hypoxia and augmented the expression of VEGFA. It also reduced the angiogenic-inhibitors, chemokine (C–X–C motif) ligand 10 (CXCL10) and tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase 1 (TIMP1) mRNAs, which were upregulated under hyperglycemia–hypoxia. In addition metformin, increased expression of STEAP family member 4 (STEAP4) under euglycemia, indicating an anti-inflammatory effect. Conclusions Metformin has a dual effect by simultaneously increasing VEGFA and reducing CXCL10 and TIMP1 in CD34+ cells in a model of the diabetic state combined with hypoxia. Therefore, these angiogenic inhibitors are promising therapeutic targets for CVD in diabetic patients. Moreover, our data are commensurate with a vascular protective effect of metformin and add to the understanding of underlying mechanisms.

Abstract
Patient-derived stem cells enable promising regenerative strategies, but display heterogenous cardiac reparative proficiency, leading to unpredictable therapeutic outcomes impeding practice adoption. Means to establish and certify the regenerative potency of emerging biotherapies are thus warranted. In this era of clinomics, deconvolution of variant cytoreparative performance in clinical trials offers an unprecedented opportunity to map pathways that segregate regenerative from non-regenerative states informing the evolution of cardio-regenerative quality systems. A maiden example of this approach is cardiopoiesis-mediated lineage specification developed to ensure regenerative performance. Successfully tested in pre-clinical and early clinical studies, the safety and efficacy of the cardiopoietic stem cell phenotype is undergoing validation in pivotal trials for chronic ischemic cardiomyopathy offering the prospect of a next-generation regenerative solution for heart failure.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Circulating angiogenic cells (CACs) are peripheral blood cells whose functional capacity inversely correlates with cardiovascular risk and that have therapeutic benefits in animal models of cardiovascular disease. However, donor age and disease state influence the efficacy of autologous cell therapy. We sought to determine whether age or coronary artery disease (CAD) impairs the therapeutic potential of CACs for myocardial infarction (MI) and whether the use of ex vivo gene therapy to overexpress endothelial nitric oxide (NO) synthase (eNOS) overcomes these defects. METHODS AND RESULTS We recruited 40 volunteers varying by sex, age (< or ≥45 years), and CAD and subjected their CACs to well-established functional tests. Age and CAD were associated with reduced CAC intrinsic migration (but not specific response to vascular endothelial growth factor, adherence of CACs to endothelial tubes, eNOS mRNA and protein levels, and NO production. To determine how CAC function influences therapeutic potential, we injected the 2 most functional and the 2 least functional CAC isolates into mouse hearts post MI. The high-function isolates substantially improved cardiac function, whereas the low-function isolates led to cardiac function only slightly better than vehicle control. Transduction of the worst isolate with eNOS cDNA adenovirus increased NO production, migration, and cardiac function of post-MI mice implanted with the CACs. Transduction of the best isolate with eNOS small interfering RNA adenovirus reduced all of these capabilities. CONCLUSIONS Age and CAD impair multiple functions of CACs and limit therapeutic potential for the treatment of MI. eNOS gene therapy in CACs from older donors or those with CAD has the potential to improve autologous cell therapy outcomes.

Abstract
Aims Cardiopoiesis is a conditioning programme that aims to upgrade the cardioregenerative aptitude of patient‐derived stem cells through lineage specification. Cardiopoietic stem cells tested initially for feasibility and safety exhibited signs of clinical benefit in patients with ischaemic heart failure (HF) warranting definitive evaluation. Accordingly, CHART‐1 is designed as a large randomized, sham‐controlled multicentre study aimed to validate cardiopoietic stem cell therapy. Methods Patients (n = 240) with chronic HF secondary to ischaemic heart disease, reduced LVEF (<35%), and at high risk for recurrent HF‐related events, despite optimal medical therapy, will be randomized 1:1 to receive 600 × 106 bone marrow‐derived and lineage‐directed autologous cardiopoietic stem cells administered via a retention‐enhanced intramyocardial injection catheter or a sham procedure. The primary efficacy endpoint is a hierarchical composite of mortality, worsening HF, Minnesota Living with Heart Failure Questionnaire score, 6 min walk test, LV end‐systolic volume, and LVEF at 9 months. The secondary efficacy endpoint is the time to cardiovascular death or worsening HF at 12 months. Safety endpoints include mortality, readmissions, aborted sudden deaths, and serious adverse events at 12 and 24 months. Conclusion The CHART‐1 clinical trial is powered to examine the therapeutic impact of lineage‐directed stem cells as a strategy to achieve cardiac regeneration in HF populations. On completion, CHART‐1 will offer a definitive evaluation of the efficacy and safety of cardiopoietic stem cells in the treatment of chronic ischaemic HF. Trial registration:NCT01768702

Abstract
In the current study, we sought to identify bone marrow-derived mononuclear cell (BM-MNC) subpopulations associated with a combined improvement in left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF), left ventricular end-systolic volume (LVESV), and maximal oxygen consumption (VO2 max) in patients with chronic ischemic cardiomyopathy 6 months after receiving transendocardial injections of autologous BM-MNCs or placebo. For this prospectively planned analysis, we conducted an embedded cohort study comprising 78 patients from the FOCUS-Cardiovascular Cell Therapy Research Network (CCTRN) trial. Baseline BM-MNC immunophenotypes and progenitor cell activity were determined by flow cytometry and colony-forming assays, respectively. Previously stable patients who demonstrated improvement in LVEF, LVESV, and VO2 max during the 6-month course of the FOCUS-CCTRN study (group 1, n = 17) were compared to those who showed no change or worsened in one to three of these endpoints (group 2, n = 61) and to a subset of patients from group 2 who declined in all three functional endpoints (group 2A, n = 11). Group 1 had higher frequencies of B-cell and CXCR4+ BM-MNC subpopulations at study baseline than group 2 or 2A. Furthermore, patients in group 1 had fewer endothelial colony-forming cells and monocytes/macrophages in their bone marrow than those in group 2A. To our knowledge, this is the first study to show that in patients with ischemic cardiomyopathy, certain bone marrow-derived cell subsets are associated with improvement in LVEF, LVESV, and VO2 max at 6 months. These results suggest that the presence of both progenitor and immune cell populations in the bone marrow may influence the natural history of chronic ischemic cardiomyopathy-even in stable patients. Thus, it may be important to consider the bone marrow composition and associated regenerative capacity of patients when assigning them to treatment groups and evaluating the results of cell therapy trials.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Type 2 diabetes (DMT2) combined with ischemic heart disease (IHD) promotes the occurrence and development of coronary atherosclerosis. We aimed to provide a theoretical basis for improving patient prognosis through analyzing expression of plasma brain natriuretic peptide (BNP), endothelin-1 (ET 1), and matrix metalloproteinase 9 (MMP-9). MATERIAL AND METHODS Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was used to detect BNP, ET-1, and MMP-9 levels in 50 patients with DMT2 only (group A), 47 patients with IHD only (group B), 43 patients with comorbid (both) IHD and DMT2 (group C), and 50 health controls (group D). Group C was further divided into single-branch lesion group, double-branch lesions group, and triple-branch lesion group according to coronary angiography, or cardiac function grade II, III, and IV group according to cardiac function, and their BNP, ET-1, and MMP-9 levels were compared. RESULTS Compared with group D, TG, diastolic, and systolic blood pressure were all significantly elevated in groups A, B, and C. Group C exhibited obviously higher glycosylated hemoglobin than group A. Gensini score in group C was markedly higher than in group B. Compared with group D, BNP, ET-1, and MMP-9 levels were all increased in groups A, B, and C. Group C showed higher levels of BNP, ET-1, and MMP-9 than group A and B. BNP, ET-1, and MMP-9 levels in the triple-branch lesions group were higher than in the single-branch lesions group and double-branch lesions group. The cardiac function grade IV group presented higher levels of BNP, ET-1, and MMP-9 than did the grade II and III groups. BNP, ET-1, and MMP-9 showed a positive correlation to each other. CONCLUSIONS BNP, ET-1, and MMP-9 may participate in the occurrence and development of comorbid DMT2 and IHD. They are important objective indicators for evaluating severity and prognosis of patients with comorbid DMA2 and IHD.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Stem cell therapy shows promise for regeneration in heart disease, yet interpatient variability challenges implementation into practice. AIM To establish a biomarker profile, predictive of reparative potential in patient-derived progenitors, human mesenchymal stem cells were isolated from patients undergoing coronary artery bypass grafting. MATERIALS & METHODS Stem cell delivery postinfarction translated into divergent benefit, distinguishing reparative from nonreparative populations. RESULTS While the nonreparative subtype was characterized by low expression of cardiac transcription factors, reparative human mesenchymal stem cells demonstrated high expression of cardiac transcription factors. CONCLUSION This index of factors (cardiopoietic index) was found sensitive and specific in predicting impact of stem cell benefit on left ventricular function. The cardiopoietic index thus offers a tool to screen stem cell fitness for heart repair prior to intervention.

Abstract
PURPOSE Peripheral blood (PB) admixture should be minimized during numerical and functional, as well as cytokinetic analysis of bone marrow (BM) aspirates for research purposes. Therefore, purity assessment of the BM aspirate should be performed in advance. We investigated whether bone matrix vesicle (BMV)-bound bone alkaline phosphatase (ALP) could serve as a marker for the purity of BM aspirates. RESULTS Total ALP activity was significantly higher in BM serum (97 (176-124)U/L, median (range)) compared to PB serum (63 (52-73)U/L, p < 0.001). Agarose gel electrophoresis showed a unique bone ALP fraction in BM, which was absent in PB. Native polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis revealed the high molecular weight of this fraction, corresponding with membrane-bound ALP from bone matrix vesicles (BMV), as evidenced by electron microscopy. A serial PB admixture experiment of bone cylinder supernatant samples, rich in BMV-bound ALP, confirmed the sensitivity of this proposed quality assessment method. Furthermore, a BMV ALP fraction of ≥ 15% is suggested as cut-off value for minimal BM quality. Moreover, the BM purity declines rapidly with larger aspirated BM volumes. CONCLUSION The exclusive presence of BMV-bound ALP in BM could serve as a novel marker to assess purity of BM aspirates.

Abstract
RATIONALE The meta-Analysis of Cell-based CaRdiac study is the first prospectively declared collaborative multinational database, including individual data of patients with ischemic heart disease treated with cell therapy. OBJECTIVE We analyzed the safety and efficacy of intracoronary cell therapy after acute myocardial infarction (AMI), including individual patient data from 12 randomized trials (ASTAMI, Aalst, BOOST, BONAMI, CADUCEUS, FINCELL, REGENT, REPAIR-AMI, SCAMI, SWISS-AMI, TIME, LATE-TIME; n=1252). METHODS AND RESULTS The primary end point was freedom from combined major adverse cardiac and cerebrovascular events (including all-cause death, AMI recurrance, stroke, and target vessel revascularization). The secondary end point was freedom from hard clinical end points (death, AMI recurrence, or stroke), assessed with random-effects meta-analyses and Cox regressions for interactions. Secondary efficacy end points included changes in end-diastolic volume, end-systolic volume, and ejection fraction, analyzed with random-effects meta-analyses and ANCOVA. We reported weighted mean differences between cell therapy and control groups. No effect of cell therapy on major adverse cardiac and cerebrovascular events (14.0% versus 16.3%; hazard ratio, 0.86; 95% confidence interval, 0.63-1.18) or death (1.4% versus 2.1%) or death/AMI recurrence/stroke (2.9% versus 4.7%) was identified in comparison with controls. No changes in ejection fraction (mean difference: 0.96%; 95% confidence interval, -0.2 to 2.1), end-diastolic volume, or systolic volume were observed compared with controls. These results were not influenced by anterior AMI location, reduced baseline ejection fraction, or the use of MRI for assessing left ventricular parameters. CONCLUSIONS This meta-analysis of individual patient data from randomized trials in patients with recent AMI revealed that intracoronary cell therapy provided no benefit, in terms of clinical events or changes in left ventricular function.
