| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Cell therapies for aortic aneurysms (AAs) have advantages of non-invasiveness compared to surgical therapies. However previously reported cell therapies had only limited therapeutic effect. With the aim of evaluation the efficacy of multi-lineage differentiating stress enduring cells (Muse cells), which are a kind of pluripotent stem cells with unique features, abdominal aortic aneurysms were induced in mice models and assessed the AAs diameter after cell transplantation. Muse cells were collected from human bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells by FACS sorting with SSEA-3 staining. The mean diameters of AAs in Muse group were significantly smaller than other groups. The immunofluorescent assessment demonstrated that some smooth muscle cells and endothelial cells were derived from injected Muse cells. These data suggest that Muse cells can fix AAs by regenerating the damaged cell components of aortic wall.
