Abstract

Background Bone marrow implantation (BMI) was shown to enhance angiogenesis in a rat ischemic heart model. This preclinical study using a swine model was designed to test the safety and therapeutic effectiveness of BMI. Methods and Results BM-derived mononuclear cells (BM-MNCs) were injected into a zone made ischemic by coronary artery ligation. Three weeks after BMI, regional blood flow and capillary densities were significantly higher (4.6- and 2.8-fold, respectively), and cardiac function was improved. Angiography revealed that there was a marked increase (5.7-fold) in number of visible collateral vessels. Implantation of porcine coronary microvascular endothelial cells (CMECs) did not cause any significant increase in capillary densities. Labeled BM-MNCs were incorporated into ≈31% of neocapillaries and corresponded to ≈8.7% of macrophages but did not actively survive as myoblasts or fibroblasts. There was no bone formation by osteoblasts or malignant ventricular arrhythmia. Time-dependent changes in plasma levels for cardiac enzymes (troponin I and creatine kinase-MB) did not differ between the BMI, CMEC, and medium-alone implantation groups. BM-MNCs contained 16% of endothelial-lineage cells and expressed basic fibroblast growth factor≫vascular endothelial growth factor>angiopoietin 1 mRNAs, and their cardiac levels were significantly upregulated by BMI. Cardiac interleukin-1β and tumor necrosis factor-α mRNA expression were also induced by BMI but not by CMEC implantation. BM-MNCs were actively differentiated to endothelial cells in vitro and formed network structure with human umbilical vein endothelial cells. Conclusions BMI may constitute a novel safety strategy for achieving optimal therapeutic angiogenesis by the natural ability of the BM cells to secrete potent angiogenic ligands and cytokines as well as to be incorporated into foci of neovascularization.

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.
