Preconditioning of Cardiosphere-Derived Cells With Hypoxia or Prolyl-4-Hydroxylase Inhibitors Increases Stemness and Decreases Reliance on Oxidative Metabolism.

ABSTRACT: Cardiosphere-derived cells (CDCs), which can be isolated from heart explants, are a promising candidate cell source for infarcted myocardium regeneration. However, current protocols used to expand CDCs require at least 1 month in vitro to obtain sufficient cells for transplantation. We report that CDC culture can be optimized by preconditioning the cells under hypoxia (2% oxygen), which may reflect the physiological oxygen level of the stem cell niche. Under hypoxia, the CDC proliferation rate increased by 1.4-fold, generating 6?×?10(6) CDCs with higher expression of cardiac stem cell and pluripotency gene markers compared to normoxia. Furthermore, telomerase (TERT), cytokines/ligands involved in stem cell trafficking (SDF/CXCR-4), erythropoiesis (EPO), and angiogenesis (VEGF) were increased under hypoxia. Hypoxic preconditioning was mimicked by treatment with two types of hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF) prolyl-4-hydroxylase inhibitors (PHDIs): dimethyloxaloylglycine (DMOG) and 2-(1-chloro-4-hydroxyisoquinoline-3-carboxamido) acetic acid (BIC). Despite the difference in specificity, both PHDIs significantly increased c-Kit expression and activated HIF, EPO, and CXCR-4. Furthermore, treatment with PHDIs for 24 h increased cell proliferation. Notably, all hypoxic and PHDI-preconditioned CDCs had decreased oxygen consumption and increased glycolytic metabolism. In conclusion, cells cultured under hypoxia could have potentially enhanced therapeutic potential, which can be mimicked, in part, by PHDIs.

Project description:BackgroundFive types of HIF-PHIs have been authorized for anemia treatment in CKD patients in China and Japan. These are enarodustat, roxadustat, daprodustat, vadadustat, and molidustat. How effectively they compare to ESAs about clinical results in CKD-DD patients is uncertain. This study examined the RCT evidence about the benefits and risks of HIF-PHIs and ESAs in dialysis CKD patients.MethodsWe conducted an extensive investigation and network meta-analysis of RCTs. In these RCTs, patients with CKD-DD received one of five different HIF-PHI or ESAs, a placebo, and no medical intervention. Outcomes included hemoglobin, iron parameters, and adverse events, and there were four weeks of follow-up at least. A frequentist framework for multivariate random effects meta-analyzed the results. The effect sizes of categorical variables were displayed as odds ratios. Mean differences were employed for computing continuous outcomes with common units; otherwise, standardized mean differences were applied. The Cochrane tool evaluated the bias risk in RCTs.Results26 RCTs with 14945 patients were qualified for inclusion. Compared to the placebo, HIF-PHIs and ESAs dramatically boosted hemoglobin without affecting serum iron. Roxadustat performed better hemoglobin levels than ESAs (MD 0.32, 95% CI 0.10 to 0.53) and daprodustat (0.46, 0.09 to 0.84). Roxadustat (91.8%) was the top hemoglobin treatment among all medical interventions, as determined by the SUCRA ranking. However, roxadustat caused more thrombosis and hypertension than ESAs (1.61, 1.22 to 2.12) and vadadustat (1.36, 1.01 to 1.82). The lowest rates of hypertension and thrombosis were seen in molidustat (80.7%) and ESAs (88.5%). Compared with a placebo, ESAs and HIF-PHIs all affected TSAT levels. Except for molidustat, the other four HIF-PHIs impact different iron parameters. Regarding ferritin reduction, roxadustat (90.9%) and daprodustat (60.9%) came out on top. Enarodustat (80.9%) and roxadustat (74%) placed best and second in lowering hepcidin levels. The former two medicines for TIBC improvement were vadadustat (98.7%) and enarodustat (80.9%).ConclusionThe most effective treatment for hemoglobin correction is roxadustat. The superior efficacy of reducing hepcidin makes roxadustat and enarodustat appropriate for patients with inflammation. However, the increased risk of hypertension and thrombosis associated with roxadustat should be noted. In patients at risk for hypertension and thrombosis, molidustat and ESAs may be preferable options. When administering roxadustat and daprodustat, clinicians should check ferritin to assess iron storage. Lower TSAT in patients receiving HIF-PHIs and ESAs treatment suggests intravenous iron supplements are needed.

Project description:ObjectivesRotator cuff tears are among the most frequent upper extremity injuries. Current treatment strategies do not address the poor quality of the muscle and tendon following chronic rotator cuff tears. Hypoxia-inducible factor-1 alpha (HIF-1α) is a transcription factor that activates many genes that are important in skeletal muscle regeneration. HIF-1α is inhibited under normal physiological conditions by the HIF prolyl 4-hydroxylases (PHDs). In this study, we used a pharmacological PHD inhibitor, GSK1120360A, to enhance the activity of HIF-1α following the repair of a chronic cuff tear, and measured muscle fibre contractility, fibrosis, gene expression, and enthesis mechanics.MethodsChronic supraspinatus tears were induced in adult rats, and repaired 28 days later. Rats received 0 mg/kg, 3 mg/kg, or 10 mg/kg GSK1120360A daily. Collagen content, contractility, fibre type distribution and size, the expression of genes involved in fibrosis, lipid accumulation, atrophy and inflammation, and the mechanical properties of the enthesis were then assessed two weeks following surgical repair.ResultsAt two weeks following repair, treatment groups showed increased muscle mass but there was a 15% decrease in force production in the 10 mg/kg group from controls, and no difference between the 0 mg/kg and the 3 mg/kg groups. There was a decrease in the expression of several gene transcripts related to matrix accumulation and fibrosis, and a 50% decrease in collagen content in both treated groups compared with controls. Additionally, the expression of inflammatory genes was reduced in the treated groups compared with controls. Finally, PHD inhibition improved the maximum stress and displacement to failure in repaired tendons.ConclusionsGSK1120360A resulted in improved enthesis mechanics with variable effects on muscle function. PHD inhibition may be beneficial for connective tissue injuries in which muscle atrophy has not occurred.Cite this article: J. P. Gumucio, M. D. Flood, A. Bedi, H. F. Kramer, A. J. Russell, C. L.
