Local administration of porcine immunomodulatory, chemotactic and angiogenic extracellular vesicles using engineered cardiac scaffolds for myocardial infarction.

ABSTRACT: The administration of extracellular vesicles (EV) from mesenchymal stromal cells (MSC) is a promising cell-free nanotherapy for tissue repair after myocardial infarction (MI). However, the optimal EV delivery strategy remains undetermined. Here, we designed a novel MSC-EV delivery, using 3D scaffolds engineered from decellularised cardiac tissue as a cell-free product for cardiac repair. EV from porcine cardiac adipose tissue-derived MSC (cATMSC) were purified by size exclusion chromatography (SEC), functionally analysed and loaded to scaffolds. cATMSC-EV markedly reduced polyclonal proliferation and pro-inflammatory cytokines production (IFNγ, TNFα, IL12p40) of allogeneic PBMC. Moreover, cATMSC-EV recruited outgrowth endothelial cells (OEC) and allogeneic MSC, and promoted angiogenesis. Fluorescently labelled cATMSC-EV were mixed with peptide hydrogel, and were successfully retained in decellularised scaffolds. Then, cATMSC-EV-embedded pericardial scaffolds were administered in vivo over the ischemic myocardium in a pig model of MI. Six days from implantation, the engineered scaffold efficiently integrated into the post-infarcted myocardium. cATMSC-EV were detected within the construct and MI core, and promoted an increase in vascular density and reduction in macrophage and T cell infiltration within the damaged myocardium. The confined administration of multifunctional MSC-EV within an engineered pericardial scaffold ensures local EV dosage and release, and generates a vascularised bioactive niche for cell recruitment, engraftment and modulation of short-term post-ischemic inflammation.

Project description:Outer membrane vesicles (OMVs) are spontaneously released by Gram-negative bacteria, including Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae, which causes contagious pleuropneumonia in pigs and leads to considerable economic losses in the swine industry worldwide. A. pleuropneumoniae OMVs have previously been demonstrated to contain Apx toxins and proteases, as well as antigenic proteins. Nevertheless, comprehensive characterizations of their contents and interactions with host immune cells have not been made. Understanding the protein compositions and immunomodulating ability of A. pleuropneumoniae OMVs could help illuminate their biological functions and facilitate the development of OMV-based applications. In the current investigation, we comprehensively characterized the proteome of native A. pleuropneumoniae OMVs. Moreover, we qualitatively and quantitatively compared the OMV proteomes of a wild-type strain and three mutant strains, in which relevant genes were disrupted to increase OMV production and/or produce OMVs devoid of superantigen PalA. Furthermore, the interaction between A. pleuropneumoniae OMVs and porcine alveolar macrophages was also characterized. Our results indicate that native OMVs spontaneously released by A. pleuropneumoniae MIDG2331 appeared to dampen the innate immune responses by porcine alveolar macrophages stimulated by either inactivated or live parent cells. The findings suggest that OMVs may play a role in manipulating the porcine defense during the initial phases of the A. pleuropneumoniae infection. IMPORTANCE Owing to their built-in adjuvanticity and antigenicity, bacterial outer membrane vesicles (OMVs) are gaining increasing attention as potential vaccines for both human and animal use. OMVs released by Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae, an important respiratory pathogen in pigs, have also been investigated for vaccine development. Our previous studies have shown that A. pleuropneumoniae secretes OMVs containing multiple immunogenic proteins. However, immunization of pigs with these vesicles was not able to relieve the pig lung lesions induced by the challenge with A. pleuropneumoniae, implying the elusive roles that A. pleuropneumoniae OMVs play in host-pathogen interaction. Here, we showed that A. pleuropneumoniae secretes OMVs whose yield and protein content can be altered by the deletion of the nlpI and palA genes. Furthermore, we demonstrate that A. pleuropneumoniae OMVs dampen the immune responses in porcine alveolar macrophages stimulated by A. pleuropneumoniae cells, suggesting a novel mechanism that A. pleuropneumoniae might use to evade host defense.

Project description:Microvascular malperfusion after myocardial infarction leads to infarct expansion, adverse remodeling, and functional impairment. Native reparative mechanisms exist but are inadequate to vascularize ischemic myocardium. We hypothesized that a 3-dimensional human fibroblast culture (3DFC) functions as a sustained source of angiogenic cytokines, thereby augmenting native angiogenesis and limiting adverse effects of myocardial ischemia.Lewis rats underwent ligation of the left anterior descending coronary artery to induce heart failure; experimental animals received a 3DFC scaffold to the ischemic region. Border-zone tissue was analyzed for the presence of human fibroblast surface protein, vascular endothelial growth factor, and hepatocyte growth factor. Cardiac function was assessed with echocardiography and pressure-volume conductance. Hearts underwent immunohistochemical analysis of angiogenesis by co-localization of platelet endothelial cell adhesion molecule and alpha smooth muscle actin and by digital analysis of ventricular geometry. Microvascular angiography was performed with fluorescein-labeled lectin to assess perfusion.Immunoblotting confirmed the presence of human fibroblast surface protein in rats receiving 3DFC, indicating survival of transplanted cells. Increased expression of vascular endothelial growth factor and hepatocyte growth factor in experimental rats confirmed elution by the 3DFC. Microvasculature expressing platelet endothelial cell adhesion molecule/alpha smooth muscle actin was increased in infarct and border-zone regions of rats receiving 3DFC. Microvascular perfusion was also improved in infarct and border-zone regions in these rats. Rats receiving 3DFC had increased wall thickness, smaller infarct area, and smaller infarct fraction. Echocardiography and pressure-volume measurements showed that cardiac function was preserved in these rats.Application of a bioengineered 3DFC augments native angiogenesis through delivery of angiogenic cytokines to ischemic myocardium. This yields improved microvascular perfusion, limits infarct progression and adverse remodeling, and improves ventricular function.
