Abstract

Objectives To quantify acute myocardial retention of cardiac-derived stem cells (CDCs) and evaluate different delivery methods using Positron Emission Tomography (PET). Background Success of stem cell transplantation for cardiac regeneration is partially limited by low retention/engraftment of the delivered cells. A clinically applicable method for accurate quantification of cell retention would enable optimization of cell delivery. Methods CDCs derived from syngeneic, male Wistar Kyoto (WK) rats were labeled with 18FDG and injected intramyocardially into the ischemic region of female WK rats following permanent left coronary artery ligation. The effects of fibrin glue, bradycardia (adenosine) and cardiac arrest were examined. 18FDG PET was performed for quantification of cell retention. Quantitative PCR for the male-specific SRY gene was performed to validate the PET results. Results Myocardial retention of cells suspended in PBS 1 hr after delivery was 17.6±11.5% by PCR and 17.8±7.3% by PET. When CDCs were injected immediately following induction of cardiac arrest, retention was increased to 75.6±18.6%. Adenosine slowed the ventricular rate and doubled CDC retention (35.4±5.3%). A similar increase in CDC retention was observed following epicardial application of fibrin glue at the injection site (37.5±8.2%). PCR revealed a significant increase in 3 week cell engraftment in the fibrin glue animals (22.1±18.6% vs 5.3±3.1%, for fibrin glue and PBS respectively). Conclusions In vivo PET permits accurate measurement of CDC retention early after intramyocardial delivery. Sealing injection sites with fibrin glue or lowering ventricular rate by adenosine may be clinically translatable methods for improving stem cell engraftment in a beating heart.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
