Transplantation of embryonic stem cell-derived cardiomyocytes improves cardiac function in infarcted rat hearts.

Abstract:

BACKGROUND:Post-infarct congestive heart failure is one of the leading causes of morbidity and mortality in industrialized countries. The main purpose of this study was to investigate whether transplantation of embryonic stem cell-derived cardiomyocytes (ESCM) directly into the infarcted myocardium could improve cardiac function in rats. METHODS:Cell culture medium with or without ESCM was injected into the borders of cardiac scar tissue 1 week after experimental infarction. Cardiac performance was evaluated 4 weeks later by means of echocardiography after ESCM (n=16) or medium (n=12) injection. RESULTS:ESCM implantation significantly improved fractional shortening (31.5+/-3. 8%) compared with medium-treated hearts (21.3+/-5.2%; P<0.05) and preserved left ventricular structure. Co-localization of 4',6-diamidino-2-phenylindole-labeled nuclei of transplanted cells with cardiomyocyte markers for cardiac troponin T and connexin-43, as detected by immunofluorescent microscopy, indicated the regeneration of damaged myocardium and the formation of gap junctions between grafted and host cells. However, intra-myocardial teratomas were observed in the hearts of two of the 16 grafted animals, at the fourth week after ESCM transplantation. DISCUSSION:Our results suggest that, although ESCM implantation can improve the function of infarcted myocardium, strategies to prevent tumorigenesis should be developed.
