Abstract

The ability of extracellular vesicles (EVs) to regulate a broad range of cellular processes has recently been exploited for the treatment of diseases. For example, EVs secreted by therapeutic cells injected into infarcted hearts can induce recovery through the delivery of cell-specific microRNAs. However, retention of the EVs and the therapeutic effects are short-lived. Here, we show that an engineered hydrogel patch capable of slowly releasing EVs secreted from cardiomyocytes (CMs) derived from induced pluripotent stem cells reduced arrhythmic burden, promoted ejection-fraction recovery, decreased CM apoptosis 24 h after infarction, and reduced infarct size and cell hypertrophy 4 weeks post-infarction when implanted onto infarcted rat hearts. We also show that EVs are enriched with cardiac-specific microRNAs known to modulate CM-specific processes. The extended delivery of EVs secreted from induced-pluripotent-stem-cell-derived CMs into the heart may help us to treat heart injury and to understand heart recovery. A hydrogel patch for the sustained delivery of extracellular vesicles from cardiomyocytes derived from induced pluripotent stem cells improves tissue regeneration in infarcted rat hearts.

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.
