Bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) have been shown to offer a wide variety of cel- lular functions including the protective effects on damaged hearts. Here we investigated the antiaging properties of BMSCs and the underlying mechanism in a cellular model of cardiomyocyte senescence and a rat model of aging hearts. Methods In vitro study, neonatal rat ventricular cells (NRVCs) and BMSCs were cocultured in the same dish with a semipermeable membrane to separate the two populations. In vivo, the BMSCs were injected into the rat hearts to observe their antiaging effects. The expression of β-galactosidase and aging-related proteins, and the lev- els of oxidative stress were determined in vivo and in vitro. The heart function was measured by the High-Resolution Imaging System. Results Monocultured NRVCs displayed the senescence-associated phenotypes, characterized by an increase in the number of β-galaetosidase-positive cells and decreases in the degradation and disappearance of cellular organelles in a time-dependent manner. The levels of reactive oxygen species and malondialdehyde were el- evated, whereas the activities of antioxidant enzymes superoxide dismutase and glutathione peroxidase were de- creased, along with upregulation of p53, p21cipl/wafl and p16INK4a in the aging eardiomyoeytes. These deleterious alterations were abrogated in aging NRVCs cocultured with BMSCs. Qualitatively, the same senescent phenotypes were consistently observed in aging rat hearts. Notably, BMSC transplantation significantly prevented these detri- mental alterations and improved the impaired cardiac function in the aging rats. Conclusions BMSCs possess strong antiseneseence action on the aging NRVCs and hearts and can improve cardiac function after transplantation in aging rats. The present study, therefore, provides an alternative approach for the treatment of heart failure in the elderly population.展开更多

For this reason, we observe the feasibility and safety of PBSCs transplantation by intracoronory infusion in such patients.Method Fourty one patients with AMI were allocated to receive Granulocyte Colony-Stimulating Factor (G-CSF:Filgrastim,300 μg) with the dose of 300 μg-600 μg/day to mobilize the stem cell, and the duration of applying G-CSF was 5 days . On the sixth day, PBSCs were separated by Baxter CS 3000 blood cell separator into suspend liquid 57 ml. Then the suspend liquid was infused into the infarct related artery (IRA)by occluding the over the wire balloon and infusing artery through balloon center lumen. In the process of the intracoronary infusion of PBSCs, the complications should be observed, which were arrhythmias including of bradycardia, sinus arrest or atrial ventricular block, premature ventricular beats ,ventricular tachycardia, ventricular fibrillation; and hypotention, etc. Results There were total 10 cases with complications during the intracoronary infusion of PBSCs. The incidence of complications was 24.4%(10/41), including bradycardia is 2.4 %(1/41), sinus arrest or atrial ventricular block is 4.9%(2/41), ventricular fibrillation is 2.4 %( 1/41), hypotention is14.6 % (6 /41).Conclusions In patients with AMI, intracoronary infusion of PBSCs is feasible and safe.展开更多

Methods Marrow stromal cells were labeled with DAPI, and then implanted into the cochlea of guinea pig.The existence and differentiation trend were observed roughly two weeks later by histologic analysis. Results Transplant-derived marrow stem cells survived in cochlea two weeks later with a trend of attaching to cochlear architecture but not differentiate into neuron. Conclusions Transplant-derived marrow stem cells can survive in cochlea,and cell transplantation may be a useful strategy in inner ear diseases.展开更多
