Collagen Matrices Enhance Survival of Transplanted Cardiomyoblasts and Contribute to Functional Improvement of Ischemic Rat Hearts

Abstract: Background— Cardiac cell transplantation is limited by poor graft viability. We aimed to enhance the survival of transplanted cardiomyoblasts using growth factor-supplemented collagen matrices. Methods and Results— H9c2 cardiomyoblasts were lentivirally transduced to express firefly luciferase and green fluorescent protein (GFP). Lewis rats underwent ligation of the left anterior descending artery (LAD) ligation … Show more

“…Two recent studies have established that successful engraftment of cardiomyocytes is enhanced by co-delivery of the cells with matrix. Kutschka et al demonstrated that grafts were larger and ventricular function was improved in infarcted rats when human embryonic stem cell-derived cardiomyocytes were delivered with collagen matrices, including GelFoam and the basement membrane preparation, Matrigel [72]. As will be discussed below, Laflamme et al found that Matrigel significantly enhanced survival of hESC-derived cardiomyocytes in infarcted hearts of athymic rats [21,22].…”

“…Delivery of cells in tissue-like structures that preserve cellular attachments could increase cell delivery efficiency and reduce cell death (4). Most heart tissue engineered in vitro to date has focused on creating tissues by seeding neonatal rat or chick cardiomyocytes into polymer or extracellular matrix scaffolds and gels (5)(6)(7)(8)(9)(10)(11). Creation of 3D tissues that are composed only of cells and the matrix they secrete (12)(13)(14)(15), which we refer to as ''scaffoldfree'' tissue engineering, addresses limitations associated with polymer and exogenous matrix-based tissues (e.g., unfavorable host response to biomaterials).…”

“…The cells proliferated, differentiated and even withstood the artificial oxidative stress. This when compared to other biomaterial scaffolds including commercially available ones like Matrigel (BD Biosciences, Franklin Lakes, NJ, USA) could either deliver cells or promote in situ regeneration (Kutschka et al, 2006;Laflamme et al, 2007). The long-term effects including immunogenic response of such materials are yet to be completely understood.…”

“…Attempts have been made to replace infarcted (Heng et al, 2004). Co-delivery of cells with various matrices including collagen matrices, Gel Foam and Matrigel has been successfully carried out (Kutschka et al, 2006;Laflamme et al, 2007). But their long term effects, including immunogenic response in most cases have not been studied well.…”
