Background
2
Cardiovascular disease leading cause of morbidity and mortality ➔ worldwide
Despite advances in Mx and cath-based therapy for AMI 1-year mortality: 13% 5-year prognosis for patients with HF: 50%.
LV systolic dysfunction: major determinant of prognosis associated with significant loss of cardiomyocytes
(Irreversible heart post mitotic organ)➔

Stem cell therapy
3
Clinical trials focused on 3 main situations:
Acute MI (with the hope of preventing LVSD) Chronic heart failure secondary to previous MI DCM (non ischemic cardiomyopthy)
Areas of discussion: 1. Stem cell types used in cardiac repair
2. Methods of cell delivery in clinical practice
3. Clinical trial evidence to date

Stem cell ?
4
Stem cell a cell with a unique capacity to produce unaltered daughter cells (self-renewal) & to
generate specialized cell types (potency)
Self-renewal symmetric division:
two stem cellstwo cells destined for differentiation
asymmetric division: one stem cell and one differentiating cell

Types of stem cells
6
Stem cells : 2 types
Somatic stem cells : BM, brain, liver, skeletal & dermal tissue in vitro proliferative ability is limited
Pluripotent stem cells : Embryonic stem cells, embryonic germ cells embryonic carcinoma cells, induced pluripotent stem (iPS) Exhibit pluripotency

Heart - self-renewing organ

Myocyte regeneration occurs throughout organism lifespan
Cardiac niches contain stem cells after activation ➔ ➔ give rise to myocytes and vascular structures

Cardiac Stem or Progenitor cells (CSC or CPC)
10
niche of primitive cells present in human heart
possess the ability to form cardiomyocytes, endothelial cells (ECs), smooth muscle cells (SMCs)
Different classes of CPCs : based on cell surface markers
1. c-Kit+ cells
2. Sca-1+ cells
3. side population cells (SP)
4. cells expressing the protein Islet-1 (transcription factor)
![Page 11: Stem cell therapy in cardiac practice Dr Sajeer K T Senior resident, Department of Cardiology, Govt. Medical College, Kozhikode. 1.](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022051214/56649e405503460f94b315a0/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Cardiac progenitor cell classes

c-kit positive cell Sca-1 positive cell SP cells Cardiospheres Epicardial progenitors
![Page 12: Stem cell therapy in cardiac practice Dr Sajeer K T Senior resident, Department of Cardiology, Govt. Medical College, Kozhikode. 1.](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022051214/56649e405503460f94b315a0/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Hierarchy of CPC growth and differentiation
12
Asymmetrical division of a CSC ➨ a daughter CSC and a daughter cardiac progenitor (CPg)
CPg gives rise to - Myocyte progenitor (MPg )& precursor (MPr) - EC progenitor (EPg) & precursor (EPr) - SMC progenitor (SMPg) & precursor (SMPr) Precursors ➨ transient amplifying cells ➨ divide and differentiate into mature myocytes, ECs, and SMCs. CSCs are lineage-negative cells : express only c-kit, MDR1, or Sca-1. Progenitors express stem cell antigens and transcription factors of cardiac cells but do not exhibit specific cytoplasmic proteins Precursors possess stem cell antigens, transcription factors, membrane& cytoplasmic proteins typical of myocytes, ECs, and SMCs

Cardiac Stem Cells and Myocardial Diseases
14
Role of cardiac stem cells in the advanced stages of HF: - to modulate endogenous CPCs to regenerate cardiac muscle and to create new blood vessel formation
Ventricular remodeling progressive chamber dilation and thinning of the walls➔ Myocardial regeneration reverse this process➔ ➔ transforming a dilated failing heart into a normal, functionally competent organ
![Page 15: Stem cell therapy in cardiac practice Dr Sajeer K T Senior resident, Department of Cardiology, Govt. Medical College, Kozhikode. 1.](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022051214/56649e405503460f94b315a0/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Bone marrow stem cells
15
Bone marrow–derived stem cells: - best studied cells - used in clinical trials in MI and/or idiopathic DCM
Bone marrow progenitor cells:- hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs)- side population cells (SP cells)
(expression of the Abcg2 transporter and allowing export of Hoechst dye)
- mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs)- multipotential adult progenitor cells (MAPCs)
![Page 16: Stem cell therapy in cardiac practice Dr Sajeer K T Senior resident, Department of Cardiology, Govt. Medical College, Kozhikode. 1.](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022051214/56649e405503460f94b315a0/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Inducible Pluripotent Stem Cells (iPSCs)
16
Adult stem cells successfully reprogrammed back to an ➔ undifferentiated pluripotent state (by inserting 4 genes: Oct3/4, Sox2, KL4 and c-Myc into differentiated somatic cells)
Morphological phenotype of ES cells
Same differentiation potential as ES cells ( in vivo and in vitro) - able to form all three germ layers

Method of delivery of stem cells
21
Intracoronary infusion of cells: - most popular mode of cell delivery - after AMI
Intramyocardial injection: - performed in patients with chronic heart failure secondary to IHD
- transendocardial injections (catheter-based) - transepicardial injections (during open heart surgery)
![Page 22: Stem cell therapy in cardiac practice Dr Sajeer K T Senior resident, Department of Cardiology, Govt. Medical College, Kozhikode. 1.](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022051214/56649e405503460f94b315a0/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Mechanisms of action
22
Progenitor cells: improve functional recovery of infarcted or failing myocardium 1. Direct or indirect improvement of revascularization2. Paracrine factors released by progenitor cells may inhibit cardiac apoptosis, affect remodeling, or enhance endogenous repair (eg: by tissue-resident PCs)3. Differentiation into cardiomyocytes may contribute to cardiac regeneration.

Homing of BM-derived stem cells to the myocardium

Stem cell therapy in acute myocardial infarction
27
Most of the trials used intracoronary delivery of BMSCs following successful stenting of the infarct-related artery
Surrogate markers used to assess efficacy of cell therapy: - Improvements in the LVEF
- Reduction in size of scar tissue - Reduction in cardiac volume
Post infarction heart failure: - results from ventricular remodeling processes - characterized by progressive expansion of the infarct area and dilation of the LV cavity
![Page 28: Stem cell therapy in cardiac practice Dr Sajeer K T Senior resident, Department of Cardiology, Govt. Medical College, Kozhikode. 1.](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022051214/56649e405503460f94b315a0/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
28
Major goal to reverse LV remodeling: - enhancement of regeneration of cardiac myocytes - stimulation of neovascul. within the infarct area
4 main randomized controlled trials (RCTs) - published with positive findings
1. TOPCARE-AMI ( Circulation- 2002) 2. BOOST trial ( Lancet - 2004)3. REPAIR-AMI trial ( EJM - 2006) 4. FINCELL (Eur Heart - 2008)

Aim: To assess the efficacy and safety of bone marrow cell (BMC) therapy after thrombolytic therapy of an acute STEMI
Methods: Patients with STEMI treated with thrombolysis followed by PCI
(2–6 days after STEMI ) Intracoronary BMCs (n= 40) placebo medium (n= 40) (collected & prepared 3–6 h prior PCI)
Injected into the infarct artery immediately after stenting

Reasons for the inconsistent findings:
1. Variations in the number of cells delivered
2. Timing of delivery after AMI
3. Differences in the cell isolation protocol

Summary and future directions
69
Past decade has seen an explosion in clinical studies investigating the safety and efficacy of stem cell therapy for heart diseases.
Safety of stem cell therapy has been demonstrated uniformly in the vast majority of the studies.
Beneficial effects of cell therapy have been demonstrated : AMI, chronic ischaemic HF and DCM.
Need for larger RCTs with longer term follow-up assessing morbidity and mortality as primary outcome measures.
