La dipendenza di questa tecnica su ripetuto perfusione del cuore fa evitare un&#39;embolia una componente critica di un esito positivo. Dal cateterizzazione iniziale del cuore nei passaggi 2.2-2.6, ai cambiamenti di soluzione tra Piazza 2.8-2.14, ci sono manipolazioni che possono permettere l&#39;introduzione di bolle d&#39;aria che compromettono il flusso di perfusato nel miocardio. A causa del peso ridotto cuore neonatale, anche bolle minute vascolarizzazione possono causare un infarto tecnica, rendendo il decellulari...

L&#39;insufficienza cardiaca è comune e mortale. È una malattia progressiva che si traduce in una riduzione della contrattilità del cuore, che ostacola il flusso di sangue agli organi e lascia le richieste metaboliche del corpo insoddisfatte. Si stima che 5,7 milioni di americani hanno l&#39;insufficienza cardiaca ed è la causa primaria di ospedalizzazione negli Stati Uniti 9. Il costo collettivo di trattamento di pazienti in insufficienza cardiaca negli Stati Uniti supera i $ 300 miliardi di dollari l&#39;anno 9-10. L&#39;unica terapia definitiva per l&#39;insufficienza cardiaca allo stadio terminale è il trapianto di cuore ortotopico. Ogni anno, si stima che più di 100.000 cuori dei donatori sono necessari per le procedure di trapianto cardiaco negli Stati Uniti 1-2. A causa del limitato numero di donatori, solo circa 2.400 trapianti vengono effettuati ogni anno negli Stati Uniti 2. Chiaramente, questa carenza di organi deve essere affrontato come altre strategie sono tenuti a produrre organi aggiuntivi per il trapiantozione e, idealmente, questi organi sarebbe autologo in modo da evitare le complicazioni associate con il rifiuto e la durata immunosoppressione. Cardiomiociti adulti mammiferi dimostrano una limitata capacità di rigenerazione su di infortunio, ma recenti evidenze suggeriscono che mammiferi cuori neonatali mantengono una notevole capacità rigenerativa dopo un trauma 5-8. In particolare, dopo la resezione chirurgica parziale, una finestra rigenerativa è stato scoperto tra la nascita e postnatale giorno 7. Questo periodo rigenerativa è caratterizzata da una mancanza di cicatrice fibrotica, formazione di neovascolarizzazione, rilascio di fattori angiogenici dalla epicardio e cardiomiociti proliferazione 5-8 , 11. Questa finestra rigenerativo di tempo fornisce il potenziale di utilizzo cuore neonatale quale nuovo fonte di materiale per lo sviluppo di un cuore bioartificiale. La matrice extracellulare è nota per fornire spunti importanti per promuovere cardiomyocyte la proliferazione e la crescita. Chiare differenze nella disponibilità di molecole nelle matrici neonatali e adulti 12 e la loro capacità di promuovere la rigenerazione sono state esplorate 13. matrici adulti decellularized sono stati utilizzati in diversi studi per fornire un ponteggio ECM per ripopolazione cellulare e la generazione di un cuore bioartificiale. Mentre questi studi, e le nuove scoperte nel campo delle tecnologie di cellule staminali, stanno avanzando rapidamente, diversi ostacoli devono ancora essere soddisfatte. Ad esempio, limitazioni nella preservando la struttura originaria della matrice, l&#39;integrazione cellulare nella parete della matrice, e la capacità di sostenere la proliferazione e la crescita tutti i limiti del successo di questo approccio. Mentre gli attributi rigenerativa superiori sono state attribuite al cuore neonatale, gli aspetti pratici di utilizzo di un tessuto così hanno limitato la sua esplorazione. Sulla base della capacità rigenerativa dimostrata del cuore neonatale, abbiamo sviluppato nuovi matrici sviluppando unatecnica di decellularization per il cuore P3 mouse. Il cuore P3 è stato scelto per questi studi in quanto è all&#39;interno della finestra di rigenerazione cardiaca come precedentemente determinato 6 ma il cuore è grande abbastanza per il raccolto, decellularize e recellularize. L&#39;obiettivo di questo studio è quello di dimostrare la fattibilità della creazione di una matrice da un cuore neonatale del mouse. I nostri studi forniscono prove per la fattibilità di decellularizing un minuto, cuore neonatale pur mantenendo l&#39;integrità strutturale e proteica della ECM. Dimostriamo anche la capacità di recellularize questo ECM cardiaco con mCherry cardiomiociti che esprimono e abbiamo esaminato questi cardiomiociti per l&#39;espressione di diversi marcatori cardiaci seguenti Recellularization. Questa tecnologia permetterà per la prova della superiorità di una matrice neonatale per lo sviluppo di un cuore bioartificiale.

neonatal cardiac scaffolds: novel matrices for regenerative studies

The only definitive therapy for end stage heart failure is orthotopic heart transplantation. Each year, it is estimated that more than 100,000 donor hearts are needed for cardiac transplantation procedures in the United States1-2. Due to the limited numbers of donors, only approximately 2,400 transplants are performed each year in the U.S.2. Numerous approaches, from cell therapy studies to implantation of mechanical assist devices, have been undertaken, either alone or in combination, in an attempt to coax the heart to repair itself or to rest the failing heart3. In spite of these efforts, ventricular assist devices are still largely used for the purpose of bridging to transplantation and the utility of cell therapies, while they hold some curative promise, is still limited to clinical trials. Additionally, direct xenotransplantation has been attempted but success has been limited due to immune rejection. Clearly, another strategy is required to produce additional organs for transplantation and, ideally, these organs would be autologous so as to avoid the complications associated with rejection and lifetime immunosuppression. Decellularization is a process of removing resident cells from tissues to expose the native extracellular matrix (ECM) or scaffold. Perfusion decellularization offers complete preservation of the three dimensional structure of the tissue, while leaving the bulk of the mechanical properties of the tissue intact4. These scaffolds can be utilized for repopulation with healthy cells to generate research models and, possibly, much needed organs for transplantation. We have exposed the scaffolds from neonatal mice (P3), known to retain remarkable cardiac regenerative capabilities,5-8 to detergent mediated decellularization and we repopulated these scaffolds with murine cardiac cells. These studies support the feasibility of engineering a neonatal heart construct. They further allow for the investigation as to whether the ECM of early postnatal hearts may harbor cues that will result in improved recellularization strategies.
