Endomyocardial biopsy derived adherent proliferating cells—A potential cell source for cardiac tissue engineering

Abstract: Heart diseases are a leading cause of morbidity and mortality. Cardiac stem cells (CSC) are considered as candidates for cardiac-directed cell therapies. However, clinical translation is hampered since their isolation and expansion is complex. We describe a population of human cardiac derived adherent proliferating (CAP) cells that can be reliably and efficiently isolated and expanded from endomyocardial biopsies (0.1 cm(3)). Growth kinetics revealed a mean cell doubling time of 49.9 h and a high number of 2.5… Show more

“…As reported previously, CardAP cells do not differentiate into cardiomyocytes in standard assays [Haag et al, 2010]. Here, for the first time, we analyzed whether these CardAP cells can induce cardiomyogenesis of other cell types.…”

“…CardAP cells, as used in this study, are a fibroblast-like cell type, isolated from biopsies from the right-ventricle side of the interventricular septum of patients, in order to evaluate unexplained left-ventricular dysfunction [Haag et al, 2010]. Although this general diagnosis includes a lot of unknown parameters such as inflammation and oxidative stress stimuli, human CardAP cells have already reproducibly demonstrated a reduction of murine acute Coxsackievirus B3-induced myocarditis and increased heart function after intravenous injection [Miteva et al, 2011].…”
