ABSTRACT
Cell transplantation is a promising therapeutic strategy for myocardial regeneration therapy. To improve therapeutic effects, we developed a culture medium additive that enhances the mitochondrial function of cardiomyocytes for transplantation. A mitochondrial targeting drug delivery system (MITO-Porter system) was used to deliver mitochondrial activation molecules to mouse-derived cardiac progenitor cells. In this study, we investigated whether the mitochondrial function of human-derived myocardial precursor cells could be enhanced using MITO-Porter. Human cardiosphere-derived cells (CDCs) were isolated from myocardium which was excised during surgery for congenital heart disease. MITO-Porter was added to the cell culture medium to generate mitochondrial activated CDCs (human MITO cells). The human MITO cells were transplanted into myocardial ischemia-reperfusion model rat, and the effect was investigated. The transplanted human MITO cells improved the cardiac function and suppressed myocardial fibrosis compared to conventional cell transplantation methods. These effects were observed not only with myocardial administration but also by intravenous administration of human MITO cells. This study is the first study that assessed whether the mitochondrial delivery of functional compounds improved the outcome of human-derived myocardial cell transplantation therapy.
