    الوصف: Few therapies have produced significant improvement in cardiac structure and function after ischemic cardiac injury (ICI). Our possible explanation is activation of local inflammatory responses negatively impact the cardiac repair process following ischemic injury. Factors that can alter immune response, including significantly altered cytokine levels in plasma and polarization of macrophages and T cells towards a pro-reparative phenotype in the myocardium post-MI is a valid strategy for reducing infarct size and damage after myocardial injury.Our previous studies showed that cortical bone stem cells (CBSCs) possess reparative effects after ICI. In our current study, we have identified that the beneficial effects of CBSCs appear to be mediated by miRNA in their extracellular vesicles (CBSC-EV). Our studies showed that CBSC-EV treated animals demonstrated reduced scar size, attenuated structural remodeling, and improved cardiac function versus saline treated animals. These effects were linked to the alteration of immune response, with significantly altered cytokine levels in plasma, and polarization of macrophages and T cells towards a pro-reparative phenotype in the myocardium post-MI. Our detailed in vitro studies demonstrated that CBSC-EV are enriched in miR-182/183 that mediates the pro-reparative polarization and metabolic reprogramming in macrophages, including enhanced OXPHOS rate and reduced ROS, via Ras p21 protein activator 1 (RASA1) axis under Lipopolysaccharides (LPS) stimulation. In summary, CBSC-EV deliver unique molecular cargoes, such as enriched miR-182/183, that modulate the immune response after ICI by regulating macrophage polarization and metabolic reprogramming to enhance repair.

    الوصف: The newly established mouse cortical-bone-derived stem cells (mCBSCs) are unique stem cells compared to mouse mesenchymal stem cells (mMSCs). The mCBSC-treated hearts after myocardial infarction have been reported to have greater improvement in myocardial structure and functions. In this study, we examined the stemness features, cell surface glycan profiles, and paracrine functions of mCBSCs compared with mMSCs. The stemness analysis revealed that the self-renewing capacity of mCBSCs was greater than mMSCs; however, the differentiation capacity of mCBSCs was limited to the chondrogenic lineage among three types of cells (adipocyte, osteoblast, chondrocyte). The cell surface glycan profiles by lectin array analysis revealed that α2-6sialic acid is expressed at very low levels on the cell surface of mCBSCs compared with that on mMSCs. In contrast, the lactosamine (Galβ1-4GlcNAc) structure, poly lactosamine- or poly N-acetylglucosamine structure, and α2-3sialic acid on both N- and O-glycans were more highly expressed in mCBSCs. Moreover, we found that mCBSCs secrete a greater amount of TGF-β1 compared to mMSCs, and that the TGF-β1 contributed to the self-migration of mCBSCs and activation of fibroblasts. Together, these results suggest that unique characteristics in mCBSCs compared to mMSCs may lead to advanced utility of mCBSCs for cardiac and noncardiac repair.

    الوصف: Inotropic support is often required to stabilize the hemodynamics of patients with acute decompensated heart failure; while efficacious, it has a history of leading to lethal arrhythmias and/or exacerbating contractile and energetic insufficiencies. Novel therapeutics that can improve contractility independent of beta-adrenergic and protein kinase A-regulated signaling, should be therapeutically beneficial. This study demonstrates that acute protein kinase C-α/β inhibition, with ruboxistaurin at 3 months’ post-myocardial infarction, significantly increases contractility and reduces the end-diastolic/end-systolic volumes, documenting beneficial remodeling. These data suggest that ruboxistaurin represents a potential novel therapeutic for heart failure patients, as a moderate inotrope or therapeutic, which leads to beneficial ventricular remodeling.
