| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Spinal cord ischemia injury (SCI) remains one of devastating complications associated with surgery and endovascular repair for descending thoracic and thoracoabdominal aortic diseases. Recently, the efficacy and safety of human endothelial progenitor cell therapy for spinal cord injury as well as ischemic diseases have been revealed in preclinical and clinical studies. Mouse delayed and immediate-onset SCI models were established in C57BL/6 strain. However, only immediate-onset but not delayed-onset SCI was induced in severe combined immunodeficiency (SCID) mice. We investigated the efficacy of intravenous injection of human CD34+ cells at 8 hours after reperfusion using SCID mouse immediate-onset SCI model. Immuno-histochemically, transplanted cells were abundantly located extra and intra vasculum at ischemic site of spinal cord, however, viable motor neuron was not detected at 40 hours after cell. Therefore, no benefit of CD34+ cell therapy was detected in this severe SCI model.
