Research Abstract |
We generated alpha-MHCMerCreMer/CAG-CAT-LacZ mice to detect newly formed cardiomyocytes after myocardial infarction. We found that some of the new cardiomyocytes are derived from cardiac stem/progenitor cells after entering the cell cycle. Next we produced a three-dimensional thick scaffold, in which cardiac progenitor cells (CPC) were cultivated in combination with self-assembling peptide and transplanted CPC-scaffold on the surface of myocardial infarction area of alpha-MHCMerCreMer/CAG-CAT-LacZ mice. Transplantation of CPC-scaffold enhanced the formation of new cardiomyocytes. We dissected heart tissue sections by using a laser micro dissection system and then identified several proteins, which expressed exclusively in the transplanted heart.
