CELL-BASED MYOGENIC AND ANGIOGENIC THERAPY FOR MYOCARDIAL REGENERATION J.C. CHACHQUES, MD, PhD POMPIDOU HOSPITAL PARIS - FRANCE
MOLECULAR BASIS OF CONGESTIVE HEART FAILURE • LACK OF MYOCARDIAL STEM CELLS • UNABILITY OF THE DAMAGED CELLS TO • UNDERGO SUFFICIENT REPAIR
HEART FAILURE THERAPY • PHARMACOLOGICAL THERAPY • CARDIAC PACING FOR RESYNCHRONIZATION • VENTRICULAR RESTORATION, LV REDUCTION • CARDIOMYOPLASTY, AORTOMYOPLASTY • VENTRICULAR CONTAINMENT, MITRAL VALVULOPLASTY • HEART TRANSPLANTATION • MECHANICAL ASSIST DEVICES - ARTIFICIAL HEART • CELLULAR CARDIOMYOPLASTY
CELL TRANSPLANTATION THERAPY • VASCULAR SURGERY: CRITICAL LEG ISCHEMIA • HEMATOLOGY : LEUKEMIA • DERMATOLOGY : EPIDERMAL CELLS • OPHTHALMOLOGY: CORNEAL REGENERATION • ORTHOPEDICS : CHONDROCYTES • MYOLOGY : DUCHENNE DYSTROPHY • NEUROLOGY : PARKINSON DISEASE • HEPATOLOGY : HEPATOCYTES • DIABETES : LANGERHANS ISLETS
NOVEL EMERGING TREATMENTS IN ISCHEMIC HEART FAILURE • CELL-BASED MYOGENIC THERAPY • CELL-BASED ANGIOGENIC THERAPY
LIMITATIONS OF ANGIOGENIC GROWTH FACTORS AND GENE THERAPY • GROWTH FACTOR PROTEINS • Systemic effects: angiogenesis in the retina. • Intimal arterial hyperplasia and development of • atheromatous plaque. • Potentiation of growth and metastasis of occult tumors • GENE THERAPY • Instability and adverse response to transfection vectors
ANGIOGENIC CELLS • BONE MARROW DERIVED ANGIOBLASTS Hematopoietic stem cells (HSC): CD34+ • Progenitor endothelial cells (PEC): CD 133+ • VASCULAR ENDOTHELIAL CELLS • collected from the intima of arteries or veins

MYOGENIC CELLS • SKELETAL MYOBLASTS ( satellite cells ) • SMOOTH MUSCLE CELLS • BONE MARROW CELLS : • Multipotent adult progenitor cells (MAPC) • CARDIOMYOCYTES : fetal, neonatal
MYOBLAST CULTURE TECHNIQUE • Manipulations in a laminar flow hood • REMOVAL OF FIBROUS AND ADIPOSE TISSUE FROM MUSCLE BIOPSY • MUSCLE MINCING WITH SCISSORS • ENZYMATIC (collagenase + trypsin) & MECHANICAL DIGESTION • MULTIPLE CENTRIFUGATIONS
MYOBLAST CULTURE TECHNIQUE • ISOLATION OF MYOBLASTS, EXCLUSION OF FIBROBLASTS • IN VITRO MYOBLASTS CULTURE : 3 WEEKS, 37°C, 5% CO2 • ASSESSMENT OF % CELL VIABILITY : TRYPAN BLUE • ASSESMENT OF % MYOBLASTS / FIBROBLASTS : • CD 56 and DESMIN ANTIBODIES • STERILITY TESTS : BACTERIAL, VIRAL, FUNGIAL • CELL SUSPENSION IN 0.5 % HUMAN ALBUMIN FOR • MYOCARDIAL INJECTION
CELL CULTURES with AUTOLOGOUS-HUMAN-SERUM - obtained from plasmapheresis or blood sample - • AVOIDS THE FIXATION OF ANIMAL PROTEINS (FBS) ON THE CELL SURFACE • AVOIDS IMMUNOLOGICAL AND INFLAMMATORY ADVERSE EVENTS LEADING TO FIBROSIS AND MICRO-REENTRY CIRCUITS • REDUCE THE RISK OF ARRHYTHMIA AND THE NEED OF A DEFIBRILLATOR • AVOIDS THE RISK OF PRION, VIRAL, OR ZOONOSES CONTAMINATION
TRANSPLANTED SKELETAL MYOBLASTSINTRAMYOCARDIAL ORGANIZATION • ISOLATED MYOBLASTS • MULTINUCLEATED MYOTUBES • MYOFIBRES
CELL IMPLANTATION TECHNOLOGIES • EPICARDIAL APPROACH • SURGICAL : CLASSIC OR MINIMALLY INVASIVE • THORASCOCOPIC • ENDOVENTRICULAR : CATHETER BASED • ASSISTED BY 3D ELECTROMECHANICAL MAPPING • ASSISTED BY ECHO & FLUOROSCOPY, MRI • INTRAVASCULAR • CATHETER BASED INTRACORONARY • CORONARY VENOUS ROUTE or INTRAVENOUS SYSTEMIC
PRE / POSTOPERATIVE EVALUATION • MYOCARDIAL VIABILITY • POSITRON EMISSION TOMOGRAPHY : 2 fluoro deoxyglucose. • MAGNETIC RESONANCE IMAGING : uptake of gadolinium. • SCINTIGRAPHY: stress-redistribution-reinjection • 201 thallium scintigraphy.
PRE / POSTOPERATIVE EVALUATION • VENTRICULAR FUNCTION • BASAL AND DOBUTAMINE STRESS ECHOCARDIOGRAPHY • RADIONUCLIDE VENTRICULOGRAPHY • CARDIAC CATHETERIZATION + CORONAROGRAPHY • COLOR KINESIS AND DOPPLER TISSUE ECHOGRAPHY • NEUROHORMONAL ACTIVATION(BNP)
CELLULAR CMP - INCLUSION CRITERIA • MYOCARDIAL INFARCT • DILATED CARDIOMYOPATHIES • NYHA FUNCTIONAL CLASS 2 - 3 • LV WALL THICKNESS > 4 mm • LV EJECTION FRACTION : 20 to 40% • VIRUS-FREE TESTS • FREE OF UNCONTROLABLE ARRHYTHMIAS
CELLULAR CMP MECHANISMS OF BENEFICIAL EFFECTS • VENTRICULAR REMODELING • REDUCES THE SIZE AND FIBROSIS OF INFARCT SCARS • MINIMIZES GLOBAL VENTRICULAR DILATATION • INCREASES MYOCARDIAL WALL THICKNESS • INDUCES MODULATION OF EXTRACELLULAR MATRIX
CELLULAR CMP - PET 18 FDG 3 MONTHS PREOP
CELLULAR CMP MECHANISMS OF BENEFICIAL EFFECTS • DIASTOLIC FUNCTION • IMPROVES MYOCARDIAL WALL TENSION AND ELASTICITY • IMPROVES STRAIN AND DYNAMIC STIFFNESS • REVERSES DIASTOLIC CREEP
CELLULAR CMP MECHANISMS OF BENEFICIAL EFFECTS SYSTOLIC FUNCTION • IMPROVES REGIONAL VENTRICULAR WALL MOTION • INCREASES DEVELOPED PRESSURES • IMPROVES GLOBAL VENTRICULAR CONTRACTION ?
CLINICAL TRIALS • > 150 ischemic patients (Europe, America, Asia) • Skeletal Myoblasts <=> Bone Marrow Cell Implants • Surgical <=> Interventional Cardiology Procedures • Defibrillators only implanted in myoblast approach • (when cultivated with bovine serum)
CLINICAL DIFFICULTIES TO BE SOLVED • CHOICE OF CELL TYPE AND DOSE • CELL ENGRAFTMENT AFTER IMPLANTATION need of prevascularization ? • DIFFERENTIATION OF STEM CELLS IN FIBROBLASTS • HOST-CELL INTERACTIONS mechanical and electrical coupling ? • ELECTRICAL INSTABILITY >>ARRHYTHMIAS
CONCLUSIONS CURRENT EXPERIMENTAL AND CLINICAL RESULTS SUGGEST THAT CELLULAR CRDIOMYOPLASTY FOR MYOCARDIAL REGENERATION MAY BE EFFICIENT TO AVOID PROGRESSION OF VENTRICULAR REMODELING AND SUBSEQUENT HEART FAILURE IN PATIENTS WITH MODERATE CARDIAC INSUFFICIENCY RESULTING FROM ISCHEMIC HEART DISEASE
NEW DEVELOPMENTS • ASSOCIATION OF ANGIOGENIC AND MYOGENIC CELLS • PRE-CONDITIONING OF STEM CELLS • COMBINATION WITH CARDIAC PACING : DYNAMIC SUPPORT • NEW INDICATIONS FOR CELLULAR CMP : ISCHEMIC MITRAL REGURGITATION NON ISCHEMIC CARDIOMYOPATHIES
PRE-CONDITIONING OF STEM CELLS • Treatment with 5-azacytidine : toxic • Co-culture with cardiomyocytes : limited expansion • In-vitro electrostimulation
Scientific Basis of Myocardial Differentiation - ANALOGY - Embryon and fetus Cardiac conduction tissue 120 impulses min Mesoderm Myocardium Cell cultures Pacemaker (rate 120 min) Stem cell cultures Cardiomyocytes ?
Human CD34+ cell cultures at 3 weeks Without Stimulation Electrostimulated
Human CD34+ cell cultures at 3 weeks Desmin antibody Without Stimulation Electrostimulated
CONCLUSION • Positive effect of electrostimulation over human stem cell cultures have been detected • Myogenic differentiation was observed in electrostimulated CD34+ cells
