Abstract Background: The beneficial functions of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BM-MSCs) decline with decreased cells survival, limiting their therapeutic efficacy for myocardial infarction (MI). Irisin, a novel myokine which is cleaved from its precursor fibronectin type III domain-containing protein 5 (FNDC5), is believed involved in a cardioprotective effect but little was known on injured BM-MSCs and MI repair yet. Here, we investigated whether FNDC5 or irisin could improve the low viability of transplanted BM-MSCs and increase their therapeutic efficacy after MI. Methods: BM-MSCs, isolated from dual-reporter firefly luciferase and enhanced green fluorescent protein positive (Fluc+– eGFP+) transgenic mice, were exposed to normoxic condition and hypoxic stress for 12 h, 24 h, and 48 h, respectively. In addition, BM-MSCs were treated with irisin (20 nmol/L) and FNDC5-OV in serum deprivation (H/SD) injury. Furthermore, BM-MSCs were engrafted into infarcted hearts with or without FNDC5-OV. Results: Hypoxic stress contributed to increased apoptosis, decreased cells viability and paracrine effects of BM-MSCs while irisin or FNDC5-OV alleviated these injuries. Longitudinal in vivo bioluminescence imaging illustrated that FNDC5-MSCs treatment improved the survival of transplanted BM-MSCs, which ameliorated the increased apoptosis and decreased angiogenesis of BM-MSCs in vivo. Furthermore, FNDC5-MSCs therapy significantly reduced fibrosis and alleviated injured heart function. Conclusions: The present study indicated that irisin or FNDC5 improved BM-MSCs engraftment and paracrine effects in infarcted hearts, which might provide a potential therapeutic target for MI.

Longitudinal in vivo bioluminescence imaging and immunofluorescence results illustrated that BM-MSCs with overexpression of FNDC5 treatment (FNDC5-MSCs) improved the survival of transplanted BM-MSCs, which ameliorated the increased apoptosis and decreased angiogenesis of BM-MSCs in vivo. Interestingly, FNDC5-OV elevated the secretion of exosomes in BM-MSCs. Furthermore, FNDC5-MSCs therapy significantly reduced fibrosis and alleviated injured heart function. Conclusions: The present study indicated that irisin or FNDC5 improved BM-MSCs engraftment and paracrine effects in infarcted hearts, which might provide a potential therapeutic target for MI.

Here, we investigated whether FNDC5 or irisin could improve the low viability of transplanted BM-MSCs and increase their therapeutic efficacy after MI. Methods BM-MSCs, isolated from dual-reporter firefly luciferase and enhanced green fluorescent protein positive (Fluc + –eGFP + ) transgenic mice, were exposed to normoxic condition and hypoxic stress for 12 h, 24 h, and 48 h, respectively. In addition, BM-MSCs were treated with irisin (20 nmol/L) and FNDC5 +/+ in serum deprivation (H/SD) injury. Furthermore, BM-MSCs were engrafted into infarcted hearts with or without FNDC5 +/+ . Results Hypoxic stress contributed to increased apoptosis, decreased cells viability and paracrine effects of BM-MSCs while irisin or FNDC5 +/+ alleviated these injuries. Longitudinal in vivo bioluminescence imaging illustrated that MSCs FNDC5+/+ treatment improved the survival of transplanted MSCs, which ameliorated the increased apoptosis and decreased angiogenesis of BM-MSCs in vivo . Furthermore, MSCs FNDC5+/+ therapy significantly reduced fibrosis and alleviated injured heart function. Conclusions The present study indicated that irisin or FNDC5 improved BM-MSCs engraftment and paracrine effects in infarcted hearts, which might provide a potential therapeutic target for MI.

Abstract Stem cells are promising for the treatment of myocardial infarction (MI) and large animal models should be used to better understand the full spectrum of stem cell actions and preclinical evidences. In this study, bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BM-MSCs) were transplanted into swine heart ischemia model. To detect glucose metabolism in global left ventricular myocardium and regional myocardium, combined with assessment of cardiac function, positron emission tomography-computer tomography (PET-CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) were performed. To study the changes of glucose transporters and glucose metabolism-related enzymes and the signal transduction pathway, RT-PCR, Western-blot, and immunohistochemistry were carried out. Myocardium metabolic evaluation by PET-CT showed that mean signal intensity (MSI) increased in these segments at week 4 compared with that at week 1 after BM-MSCs transplantation. Moreover, MRI demonstrated significant function enhancement in BM-MSCs group. The gene expressions of glucose transporters (GLUT1, GLUT4), glucose metabolism-related enzymes phosphofructokinase (PFK), and glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH)) and 70-kDa ribosomal protein S6 kinase (p70s6k) in BM-MSCs injected areas were up-regulated at week 4 after BM-MSCs transplantation and this was confirmed by Western-blot and immunohistochemistry. In conclusions, BM-MSCs transplantation could improve cardiac function in swine MI model by activation of mTOR signal transduction pathway.
