Title: Early administration of cold water and adipose derived mesenchymal stem cell derived exosome effectively protects the heart from ischemia-reperfusion injury. Author: Chai HT, Sheu JJ, Chiang JY, Shao PL, Wu SC, Chen YL, Li YC, Sung PH, Lee FY, Yip HK. Journal: Am J Transl Res; 2019; 11(9):5375-5389. PubMed ID: 31632517. Abstract: This study tested the hypothesis that early administration with cold water (CW)-assisted adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cell (ADMSC)-derived exosome (Exo) therapy was superior to either one on protecting the heart against ischemia-reperfusion (IR) (i.e., by ligation of 50 minutes and relieved by day 5 prior to euthanizing the animals) injury. Adult-male SD rats (n=30) were equally categorized into groups 1 (sham-operated control), 2 (IR), 3 (IR + CW), 4 (IR + Exo) and 5 (IR + CW-Exo). The left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) was highest in group 1, lowest in group 2, and significantly higher in group 5 than in groups 3 and 4, but no difference between groups 3 and 4 (all P<0.001). The protein expressions of oxidative-stress (NOX-1/NOX-2/NOX-4/oxidized protein), apoptotic/mitochondrial-damaged (mitochondrial-Bax/caspase 3/PARP/p53/cytosolic-cytochrome-C) and inflammatory (IL-1β/TNF-α/NF-κB/MMP-9) biomarkers, and cellular-stress response signaling (PI3K/Akt/GSK3β and p-m-TOR) showed an opposite pattern, whereas the anti-oxidants (SIRT1/SIRT3), anti-inflammation (IL-10) and IKB-α/p-AMKP/mitochondrial-cytochrome-C exhibited an identical pattern to the LVEF among the five groups (all P<0.0001). The cellular expressions of inflammation (CD68), total cellular ROS (i.e., stained by H2DCFDA) and the LV infarct/fibrotic/collagen-deposition areas displayed an opposite pattern, whereas the cell gap junction (coonexin 43) and sarcomere length exhibited an identical pattern of LVEF among the five groups (all P<0.0001). Conclusion: Combined CW-exosome therapy markedly protected the heart against IR injury.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
