Aims: Angiotensin-converting-enzyme inhibitors (ACE inhibitors) are a cornerstone of drug therapy after myocardial infarction (MI) and improve left ventricular function and survival. We aimed to elucidate the impact of early treatment with the ACE inhibitor ramipril on the hematopoietic response after MI, as well as on the chronic systemic and vascular inflammation. Methods and Results: In a mouse model of MI, induced by permanent ligation of the left anterior descending artery, immediate initiation of treatment with ramipril (10 mg/k/d via drinking water) reduced cardiac inflammation and the number of circulating inflammatory monocytes, whereas left ventricular function was not altered significantly, respectively. This effect was accompanied by enhanced retention of hematopoietic stem cells, Lin−Sca1−c-Kit+CD34+CD16/32+ granulocyte–macrophage progenitors (GMP) and Lin−Sca1−c-Kit+CD150−CD48− multipotent progenitors (MPP) in the bone marrow, with an upregulation of the niche factors Angiopoetin 1 and Kitl at 7 d post MI. Long-term ACE inhibition for 28 d limited vascular inflammation, particularly the infiltration of Ly6Chigh monocytes/macrophages, and reduced superoxide formation, resulting in improved endothelial function in mice with ischemic heart failure. Conclusion: ACE inhibition modulates the myeloid inflammatory response after MI due to the retention of myeloid precursor cells in their bone marrow reservoir. This results in a reduction in cardiac and vascular inflammation with improvement in survival after MI.

IMPORTANCE: Cell therapy has been a potential approach for ST-segment elevation acute myocardial infarction (STEMI). To improve the therapeutic oucome, the safety and efficacy of hypoxia-preconditioned (H-) bone marrow mononuclear cells (BMCs) in AMI patients need further evaluation. OBJECTIVE: To investigate the safety and efficacy of H-BMCs therapy in AMI patients. DESIGN: A phase 1, randomized and blinded study (February, 2011~ March, 2012) with one-year of follow-up. SETTING: A single center for hospitalized care. PARTICIPANTS: 22 Patients with an acute ST elevation myocardial infarction were recruited and randomized to two groups: normoxia BMCs (N-, n=11) and H-BMCs (n=11). INTERVENTIONS: Intracoronary infusion of H-BMCs or N-BMCs within 5-7 days after treatment with percutaneous transluminal coronary intervention (PCI). Patients were similarly treated by a stop-flow technique through an over-the-wire balloon catheter. MAIN OUTCOMES AND MEASURES: Primary endpoint was Treatment-emergent 30-day serious adverse event rate defined as a composite of death, MI, sustained ventricular tachycardia, stroke, hospitalization for worsening heart failure and revascularization. Secondary endpoints were change of myocardium perfusion, global left ventricular ejection fraction and left ventricular volumes. RESULTS: The primary endpoint events was none for N-BMCs and 9.1% (95% CI, 0.2%-41.3%) for H-BMCs. There was significant increase in the change of LVEF of H-BMCs group at 6 month. The change of end diastolic volume (EDV) and end systolic volume (ESV) in H-BMCs at 12 month were significantly decreased. Ratio of myocardium perfusion defect by Single-Photon Emission Computed Tomography (SPECT) was significantly reduced in H-BMCs group at 6 months, and score of myocardium perfusion defect by SPECT was significantly reduced than that of baseline in H-BMCs group at 6 and 12 months, unlike N- group. CONCLUSIONS AND RELEVANCE: Intracoronary infusion with H-BMCs appeared to be safe and effective for patients with AMI. Although the sample size precludes a definitive statement about safety and efficacy, these results provide the basis for larger studies to provide definitive evidence about safety and to assess efficacy of this new therapeutic approach.
