Immune-mediated regeneration of cell-free vascular grafts in an ovine model
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: We have employed single cell RNA sequencing transcriptomics to characterize the cellular sub-types populating the H2R5 ATEV (Grafts) explanted at 12 weeks, from an Ovine (Sheep) model. The ATEVs were primarily reconstructed by the infiltrating myeloid-precursor cells/monocytes that differentiate under different physiological and mechanosensitive cues into macrophages, smooth muscle cells and endothelial cells. Cell specific markers (CSF1R, CD14, CD163, C1QA, PTPRC) for monocytes, (MYH11, ACTA2, MYL9, TAGLN) for Smooth muscle cells, (PECAM1, VWF, NOS3, CDH5, CLDN5) for endothelial cells were employed to determine the major cell populations in the ATEVs. Characterization of the immune-cell types populating the ATEVs hold immense potential in developing future generation grafts for cardiovascular applications.
