Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Heart disease remains a leading cause of death worldwide, and new therapies are highly demanded. As cardiomyocytes are terminally differentiated cells, regenerative therapy has emerged as an attractive approach for the treatment of heart failure. Direct cardiac reprogramming approach might be a powerful strategy toward this treatment. We reported that a combination of three cardiac-specific transcription factors, Gata4, Mef2c, and Tbx5 (GMT), could directly reprogram fibroblasts into cardiomyocyte-like cells in vitro and in vivo. The aim of this study is to develop new Sendai viral vectors (SeVs) which overexpress reprogramming factors without genomic integration, and to determine the efficiency and safety of cardiac reprograming with SeVs. We generated SeVs vectors containing GMT and found that the vector could efficiently reprogram mouse fibroblasts inot cardiomyocyte-like cells in vitro.
