Abstract
BACKGROUND Our team previously identified a stem cell-derived cardioprotective additive that can be added to standard cardioplegia to extend myocardial viability during prolonged myocardial cold ischemic time (CIT) in rodent models. The purpose of this study was to utilize a porcine model to compare in-vivo versus ex-vivo porcine simulation of CIT that accompanies cardiac transplantation in humans, in order to determine an optimal method for translation of our studies to larger animals. METHODS Eight 39-55 kg Yorkshire X pigs were randomly assigned to either in-vivo or ex-vivo simulation. After administration of general anesthesia and endotracheal intubation, baseline measurement of left ventricular performance was obtained via transesophageal echocardiography (TEE). After midline sternotomy and heparin administration, the aorta was cross-clamped and two liters of HTK-Custodiol were introduced via the aortic root. The in-vivo method utilized cold ischemic heart storage in the chest cavity while supporting the experimental animal with cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB). The ex-vivo method involved standard cardiac procurement, cold ischemic storage outside of the body, and subsequent cardiac reperfusion utilizing cardiac reanimation in a Langendorff heart perfusion mode. After CIT, measurements of post-ischemic left ventricular performance were obtained via echocardiography. Results are presented as: Mean ± Standard Deviation (Median, Minimum-Maximum). RESULTS Weight (kilograms) was similar in the in-vivo group and the ex-vivo group: 44 ± 1.8 (44, 42-46) versus 44 ± 5.1 (43.5, 39-51), respectively. Cold ischemic time (minutes) was longer in the ex-vivo group: 360 ± 0 (360, 360-360) versus 141 ± 26.7 (149, 102-163). Temperature (degrees Celsius) was colder in the ex-vivo group: 8 ± 0 (8, 8-8) versus 16.5 ± 4.2 (16, 12-16).In the in-vivo group, baseline ejection fraction and ejection fraction after CIT were: 48.25% ± 14.95% (48.5%, 33%-63%) and 41.25% ± 22.32% (41.5%, 20%-62%), respectively. In the ex-vivo group, baseline ejection fraction and ejection fraction after CIT were: 56.4% ± 5.9% (57%, 50%-67%) and 60.4% ± 7.7% (61.5%, 51.9%-67%), respectively. CONCLUSION The ex-vivo technique is suitable to evaluate cardioplegia additives that may substantially extend myocardial tolerance to cold ischemia.

Abstract
Cardiovascular diseases are the leading cause of death worldwide, among which, ischemic heart disease is the most prevalent. Myocardial infarction results from occlusion of a coronary artery, which leads to an insufficient blood supply to the myocardium. As is well known, the massive loss of cardiomyocytes cannot be solved due the limited regenerative ability of the adult mammalian heart. In contrast, some lower vertebrate species can regenerate the heart after injury; their study has disclosed some of the involved cell types, molecular mechanisms and signaling pathways during the regenerative process. In this two-part review, we discuss the current state of the principal response in heart regeneration, where several involved processes are essential for full cardiac function in recovery.

Abstract
Solid organ and composite tissue allotransplanation have been widely applied to treat end-stage organ failure and massive tissue defects, respectively. Currently there are a lot of research endeavors focusing on induction of transplantation tolerance, to relieve the burden derived from long-term immunosuppressant uptake. The mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) have been demonstrated with potent immunomodulatory capacities and applied as promising cellular therapeutics to promote allograft survival and induce tolerance. As a rich source of adult MSCs, adipose tissue provides additional advantages of easy accessibility and good safety profile. In recent years, the stromal vascular fraction (SVF) isolated from adipose tissues following enzymatic or mechanical processing without in vitro culture and expansion has demonstrated immunomodulatory and proangiogenic properties. Furthermore, the secretome of AD-MSCs has been utilized in transplantation field as a potential "cell-free" therapeutics. This article reviews recent studies that employ these adipose-derived therapeutics, including AD-MSCs, SVF, and secretome, in various aspects of organ and tissue allotransplantation. Most reports validate their efficacies in prolonging allograft survival. Specifically, the SVF and secretome have performed well for graft preservation and pretreatment, potentially through their proangiogenic and antioxidative capacities. In contrast, AD-MSCs were suitable for peri-transplantation immunosuppression. The proper combination of AD-MSCs, lymphodepletion and conventional immunosuppressants could consistently induce donor-specific tolerance to vascularized composite allotransplants (VCA). For each type of transplantation, optimizing the choice of therapeutics, timing, dose, and frequency of administration may be required. Future progress in the application of adipose-derived therapeutics to induce transplantation tolerance will be further benefited by continued research into their mechanisms of action and the development of standardized protocols for isolation methodologies, cell culture, and efficacy evaluation.

Abstract
In the modern world, myocardial infarction is one of the most common cardiovascular diseases, which are responsible for around 18 million deaths every year or almost 32% of all deaths. Due to the detrimental effects of COVID-19 on the cardiovascular system, this rate is expected to increase in the coming years. Although there has been some progress in myocardial infarction treatment, translating pre-clinical findings to the clinic remains a major challenge. One reason for this is the lack of reliable and human representative healthy and fibrotic cardiac tissue models that can be used to understand the fundamentals of ischemic/reperfusion injury caused by myocardial infarction and to test new drugs and therapeutic strategies. In this review, we first present an overview of the anatomy of the heart and the pathophysiology of myocardial infarction, and then discuss the recent developments on pre-clinical infarct models, focusing mainly on the engineered three-dimensional cardiac ischemic/reperfusion injury and fibrosis models developed using different engineering methods such as organoids, microfluidic devices, and bioprinted constructs. We also present the benefits and limitations of emerging and promising regenerative therapy treatments for myocardial infarction such as cell therapies, extracellular vesicles, and cardiac patches. This review aims to overview recent advances in three-dimensional engineered infarct models and current regenerative therapeutic options, which can be used as a guide for developing new models and treatment strategies.

Abstract
Adipose tissue is widely recognized as an abundant and accessible human tissue that serves as a source of cells and extracellular matrix scaffolds for regenerative surgical applications. Increasingly, orthopedic surgeons are turning to adipose tissue as a resource in their treatment of osteoarthritis and related conditions. In the U.S., the regulatory landscape governing the orthopedic surgical utilization of autologous and allogeneic adipose tissue remains complex. This manuscript reviews the Food and Drug Administration's nomenclature and guidance regarding adipose tissue products. Additionally, it surveys recent pre-clinical and clinical trial literature relating to the application of adipose-derived cells and tissues in the treatment of osteoarthritis.

Abstract
Current biomarkers for myocardial infarction (MI) diagnosis are typically late markers released upon cell death, incapable of distinguishing between ischemic and reperfusion injury and can be symptoms of other pathologies. Circulating microRNAs (miRNAs) have recently been proposed as alternative biomarkers for MI diagnosis; however, detecting the changes in the human cardiac miRNA profile during MI is extremely difficult. Here, to study the changes in miRNA levels during acute MI, a heart-on-chip model with a cardiac channel, containing human induced pluripotent stem cell (hiPSC)-derived cardiomyocytes in human heart decellularized matrix and collagen, and a vascular channel, containing hiPSC-derived endothelial cells, is developed. This model is exposed to anoxia followed by normoxia to mimic ischemia and reperfusion, respectively. Using a highly sensitive miRNA biosensor that the authors developed, the exact same increase in miR-1, miR-208b, and miR-499 levels in the MI-on-chip and the time-matched human blood plasma samples collected before and after ischemia and reperfusion, is shown. That the surface marker profile of exosomes in the engineered model changes in response to ischemic and reperfusion injury, which can be used as biomarkers to detect MI, is also shown. Hence, the MI-on-chip model developed here can be used in biomarker discovery.

Mol Pharmacol 2022; 101:226-235. [PMID: 35042831 PMCID: PMC11033929 DOI: 10.1124/molpharm.121.000394] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/30/2021] [Accepted: 01/16/2022] [Indexed: 11/22/2022] Open
Abstract
High serum levels of asymmetric dimethyl arginine (ADMA) are associated with cardiovascular disease and mortality. Pharmacological agents to specifically lower ADMA and their potential impact on cardiovascular complications are not known. In this study, we aimed to investigate the effect of specific lowering of ADMA on myocardial response to ischemia-reperfusion injury (I/R) and direct effects on cardiomyocyte function. Effects of recombinant dimethylarginine dimethylaminohydrolase (rDDAH)-1 on I/R injury were determined using isolated mouse heart preparation. Respiration capacity and mitochondrial reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation were determined on mouse cardiomyocytes. Our results show that lowering ADMA by rDDAH-1 treatment resulted in improved recovery of cardiac function and reduction in myocardial infarct size in mouse heart response to I/R injury (control 22.24 ±4.60% versus rDDAH-1 15.90 ±4.23%, P < 0.01). In mouse cardiomyocytes, rDDAH-1 treatment improved ADMA-induced dysregulation of respiration capacity and decreased mitochondrial ROS. Furthermore, in human induced pluripotent stem cell (hiPSC)-derived cardiomyocytes with impaired contractility under hypoxia and high ADMA, rDDAH-1 treatment improved recovery and beating frequency (P < 0.05). rDDAH-1 treatment selectively modified I/R-induced myocardial cytokine expression, resulting in reduction in proinflammatory cytokine IL-17A (P < 0.001) and increased expression of anti-inflammatory cytokines IL-10 and IL-13 (P < 0.01). Further in vitro studies showed that IL-17A was the predominant and common cytokine modulated by ADMA-DDAH pathway in heart, cardiomyocytes, and endothelial cells. These studies show that lowering ADMA by pharmacological treatment with rDDAH-1 reduced I/R injury, improved cardiac function, and ameliorated cardiomyocyte bioenergetics and beating activity. These effects may be attributable to ADMA lowering in cardiomyocytes and preservation of cardiomyocyte mitochondrial function. SIGNIFICANCE STATEMENT: The pathological role of asymmetric dimethyl arginine (ADMA) has been demonstrated by its association with cardiovascular disease and mortality. Currently, pharmacological drugs to specifically lower ADMA are not available. The present study provides the first evidence that lowering of ADMA by recombinant recombinant dimethylarginine dimethylaminohydrolase (rDDAH)-1 improved postischemic cardiac function and cardiomyocyte bioenergetics and beating activity. Our studies suggest that lowering of ADMA by pharmacologic treatment offers opportunity to develop new therapies for the treatment of cardiovascular and renal disease.

Bone marrow- or adipose-mesenchymal stromal cell secretome preserves myocardial transcriptome profile and ameliorates cardiac damage following ex vivo cold storage. J Mol Cell Cardiol 2022; 164:1-12. [PMID: 34774548 PMCID: PMC8860861 DOI: 10.1016/j.yjmcc.2021.11.002] [Citation(s) in RCA: 11] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/11/2021] [Revised: 10/24/2021] [Accepted: 11/03/2021] [Indexed: 12/11/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Heart transplantation, a life-saving approach for patients with end-stage heart disease, is limited by shortage of donor organs. While prolonged storage provides more organs, it increases the extent of ischemia. Therefore, we seek to understand molecular mechanisms underlying pathophysiological changes of donor hearts during prolonged storage. Additionally, considering mesenchymal stromal cell (MSC)-derived paracrine protection, we aim to test if MSC secretome preserves myocardial transcriptome profile and whether MSC secretome from a certain source provides the optimal protection in donor hearts during cold storage. METHODS AND RESULTS Isolated mouse hearts were divided into: no cold storage (control), 6 h cold storage (6 h-I), 6 h-I + conditioned media from bone marrow MSCs (BM-MSC CM), and 6 h-I + adipose-MSC CM (Ad-MSC CM). Deep RNA sequencing analysis revealed that compared to control, 6 h-I led to 266 differentially expressed genes, many of which were implicated in modulating mitochondrial performance, oxidative stress response, myocardial function, and apoptosis. BM-MSC CM and Ad-MSC CM restored these gene expression towards control. They also improved 6 h-I-induced myocardial functional depression, reduced inflammatory cytokine production, decreased apoptosis, and reduced myocardial H2O2. However, neither MSC-exosomes nor exosome-depleted CM recapitulated MSC CM-ameliorated apoptosis and CM-improved mitochondrial preservation during cold ischemia. Knockdown of Per2 by specific siRNA abolished MSC CM-mediated these protective effects in cardiomyocytes following 6 h cold storage. CONCLUSIONS Our results demonstrated that using MSC secretome (BM-MSCs and Ad-MSCs) during prolonged cold storage confers preservation of the normal transcriptional "fingerprint", and reduces donor heart damage. MSC-released soluble factors and exosomes may synergistically act for donor heart protection.
