SRT1720 promotes survival of aged human mesenchymal stem cells via FAIM: a pharmacological strategy to improve stem cell-based therapy for rat myocardial infarction.

ABSTRACT: SIRT1 has been proved to rejuvenate and improve the therapeutic efficacy of aged rat mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs). Herein, we investigate the protective effect of pretreatment with SIRT1 activator SRT1720 on aged human MSCs (hMSCs). The optimized pretreatment condition for aged hMSCs was determined to be 0.5??M SRT1720 for 24?h by monitoring the survival of aged hMSCs subjected to serum deprivation±hypoxia and±500??M hydrogen peroxide (H₂O₂). Pretreatment with these conditions increased the survival of aged hMSCs 1?day (2.7-fold) and 3 days (1.9-fold) after being transplanted into a rat myocardial infarction (MI) model created by ligation of the left anterior descending (LAD) coronary artery. Transplantation with SRT1720 pretreated aged hMSCs achieved increased left ventricular ejection fraction (58.9±3.6 versus 52.8±5%) and angiogenesis with reduced fibrosis of rat hearts as compared to DMSO pretreated group 28 days following MI. Unbiased transcriptome analysis conducted on aged hMSCs under oxidative stress indicated the Fas apoptosis inhibitory molecule (FAIM) was significantly upregulated following SRT1720 pretreatment (14.9±0.2-folds). Moreover, the anti-apoptotic effect of SRT1720 was mitigated by FAIM knockdown with a small interfering RNA-targeted FAIM. These results indicated that pretreatment with SRT1720 improves survival of aged hMSCs, and enhances their therapeutic efficacy for rat myocardial infarction (MI). Upregulation of FAIM possibly involves in the mechanisms of the protective effects.

Project description:Acute myocardial infarction (AMI) is the most critical heart disease. Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) have been widely used as a therapy for AMI for several years. The human placenta has emerged as a valuable source of transplantable cells of mesenchymal origin that can be used for multiple cytotherapeutic purposes. However, the different abilities of first trimester placental chorion mesenchymal stem cells (FCMSCs) and third trimester placental chorion mesenchymal stem cells (TCMSCs) have not yet been explored. In this study, we aimed to compare the effectiveness of FCMSCs and TCMSCs on the treatment of AMI. FCMSCs and TCMSCs were isolated and characterized, and then they were subjected to in vitro endothelial cell (EC) differentiation induction and tube formation to evaluate angiogenic ability. Moreover, the in vivo effects of FCMSCs and TCMSCs on cardiac improvement were also evaluated in a rat MI model. Both FCSMCs and TCMSCs expressed a series of MSCs surface markers. After differentiation induction, FCMSCs-derived EC (FCMSCs-EC) exhibited morphology that was more similar to that of ECs and had higher CD31 and vWF levels than TCMSCs-EC. Furthermore, tube formation could be achieved by FCMSCs-EC that was significantly better than that of TCMSCs-EC. Especially, FCMSCs-EC expressed higher levels of pro-angiogenesis genes, PDGFD, VEGFA, and TNC, and lower levels of anti-angiogenesis genes, SPRY1 and ANGPTL1. In addition, cardiac improvement, indicated by left ventricular end-diastolic diameter (LVEDd), left ventricular end-systolic diameter (LVEDs), left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) and left ventricular shortening fraction (LVSF), could be observed following treatment with FCMSCs, and it was superior to that of TCMSCs and Bone marrow MSCs (BMSCs). FCMSCs exhibited a superior ability to generate EC differentiation, as evidenced by in vitro morphology, angiogenic potential and in vivo cardiac function improvement; further, increased levels of expression of pro-angiogenesis genes may be the mechanism by which this effect occurred.

Project description:Aim:The acute phase of myocardial infarction (MI) is accompanied by edema contributing to tissue damage and disease outcome. Here, we aimed to identify the mechanism whereby vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF)-A induces myocardial edema in the acute phase of MI to eventually promote development of therapeutics to specifically suppress VEGFA-regulated vascular permeability while preserving collateral vessel formation. Methods and Results:VEGFA regulates vascular permeability and edema by activation of VEGF receptor-2 (VEGFR2), leading to induction of several signaling pathways including the cytoplasmic tyrosine kinase c-Src. The activated c-Src in turn phosphorylates vascular endothelial (VE)-cadherin, leading to dissociation of endothelial adherens junctions. A particular tyrosine at position 949 in mouse VEGFR2 has been shown to be required for activation of c-Src. Wild-type mice and mice with phenylalanine replacing tyrosine (Y) 949 in VEGFR2 (Vegfr2 Y949F/Y949F ) were challenged with MI through permanent ligation of the left anterior descending coronary artery. The infarct size was similar in wild-type and mutant mice, but left ventricular wall edema and fibrinogen deposition, indicative of vascular leakage, were reduced in the Vegfr2 Y949F/Y949F strain. When challenged with large infarcts, the Vegfr2 Y949F/Y949F mice survived significantly better than the wild-type strain. Moreover, neutrophil infiltration and levels of myeloperoxidase were low in the infarcted Vegfr2 Y949F/Y949F hearts, correlating with improved survival. In vivo tyrosine phosphorylation of VE-cadherin at Y685, implicated in regulation of vascular permeability, was induced by circulating VEGFA in the wild-type but remained at baseline levels in the Vegfr2 Y949F/Y949F hearts. Conclusion:Suppression of VEGFA/VEGFR2-regulated vascular permeability leads to diminished edema without affecting vascular density correlating with improved myocardial parameters and survival after MI.
