Granulocyte-Colony Stimulating Factor-Overexpressing Mesenchymal Stem Cells Exhibit Enhanced Immunomodulatory Actions Through the Recruitment of Suppressor Cells in Experimental Chagas Disease Cardiomyopathy

Abstract: Genetic modification of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) is a promising strategy to improve their therapeutic effects. Granulocyte-colony stimulating factor (G-CSF) is a growth factor widely used in the clinical practice with known regenerative and immunomodulatory actions, including the mobilization of regulatory T cells (Tregs) and myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs). Here we evaluated the therapeutic potential of MSCs overexpressing G-CSF (MSC_G-CSF) in a model of inflammatory cardiomyopathy due to chroni… Show more

“…In addition, IL-10, another important anti-inflammatory cytokine, IL-4, can be genetically delivered in MSCs to enhance the immunosuppressive role of naive cells targeting autoimmune disorders [ 103 , 104 ]. To increase homing capacity to the injury site, Silva et al introduced granulocyte-Colony Stimulating Factor (GM-CSF) to MSCs (MSC GM-CSF ) and evaluated their therapeutic roles in Chagas disease cardiomyopathy [ 105 ]. Compared to control MSCs, MSC GM-CSF displayed a remarkable homing ability to the heart, sequentially leading to the recruitment of myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs) and Treg induction.…”

“…The therapeutic effects of MSCs overexpression growth factors were also studied in a mouse model of cardiomyopathy induced by chronic infection with Trypanosoma cruzi , the causative agent of Chagas disease. Administration of genetically modified mesenchymal cells overexpressing granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF) were about 2-fold more potent in reducing the number of inflammatory cells and the percentage of fibrosis than control MSCs, acting by increasing the number of myeloid-derived suppressor cells and T regulatory cells ( Silva et al, 2018b ). In contrast, no increase in anti-inflammatory or antifibrotic activity was seen after transplantation of IGF-overexpressing MSCs in T. cruzi -infected animals.…”

“…O que abre caminho para novos tratamentos, podendo ser pelo transplante de células ou pela modificação genética de células de forma que isso aumente a sua ação parácrina, reduzindo a reação imune na Doença de Chagas. 27,28 O mesmo grupo, juntamente com o Dr. Gilson Soares Feitosa e colaboradores, desenvolveram pesquisa inédita no Brasil em pacientes do Hospital Santa Izabel, demonstrando que a injeção intracoronariana de um aspirado processado da medula óssea promoveu resultados positivos no tratamento de um paciente vítima de insuficiência cardíaca secundária à doença de Chagas. Nesse caso, a fração de ejeção do ventrículo esquerdo (FEVE) em repouso aumentou de 24% para 32% depois de 30 dias do procedimento, sem alterar o esquema medicamentoso.…”
