简介
Purpose
The aim of this study was to investigate the cardiac repair effect of human bone marrow mesenchymal stromal cells-derived extracellular vesicles (MSC-EVs) after intramyocardial injection in free form or encapsulated within a self-assembling peptide hydrogel modified with SDKP motif, in a rat model of myocardial infarction (MI).
Methods
MSC-EVs were isolated by ultracentrifuge and characterized for physical parameters and surface proteins. Furthermore, cellular uptake and cardioprotective effects of MSC-EVs were evaluated in vitro using neonatal mouse cardiomyocytes (NMCMs). In vivo effects of MSC-EVs on cardiac repair were studied in rat MI model by comparing the vehicle group (injected with PBS), EV group (injected with MSC-EVs) and Gel + EV group (injected with MSC-EVs encapsulated in (RADA)4-SDKP hydrogel) with respect to cardiac function and fibrotic area using echocardiography and …
