Research Abstract |
To develop effective treatments for chronic heart failure, we used fetal membrane (FM) derived mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) sheets. In a rat chronic myocardial infarction (MI) model, the allogeneic FM-MSC sheets transplantation had significantly reversed wall thinning in the scar area and had improved cardiac function as well as the autologous bone marrow derived MSC sheets transplantation. However, the allogeneic FM-MSC sheets transplantation did not improve cardiac function in a mini-pig MI model. To improve secretion of angiogenic factors from the FM-MSC sheets, we transfected siRNA-int6 to the FM-MSC. The siRNA-int6 transfection reduced the int6 expression in the FM-MSC, however did not increase the HIF2alpha, HIF1 and VEGF expressions. In a mini-pig acute MI model, angiogenic effect was observed by intra myocardial injection of the siRNA-int6 plasmid-GenomeONE mixture.
