Peripheral blood mesenchymal stem cell-derived exosomes improve renal sympathetic denervation efficacy through β-catenin-mediated cardiac reprogramming.

ABSTRACT:

Background

To investigate the role of self-peripheral blood mesenchymal stem cell (PBMSC)-derived exosomes (Exos) in enhancing renal sympathetic denervation (RD)-mediated heart regeneration following myocardial infarction (MI) in a porcine model.

Methods

Pigs (ejection fraction [EF] < 40% post-MI) were randomised to early sham RD or RD. At 2 weeks post-MI, autologous PBMSC-Exos were collected. At 30 days post-MI, pigs received either PBMSC-Exos (2 × 10¹³ particles) or phosphate-buffered saline and were followed until 90 days. Another cohort underwent myocardial biopsy at 14 days post-MI to assess PBMSC-Exos effects on ischaemic cardiomyocyte (CM) reprogramming, followed by adeno-associated viral therapy with miR-141-200-429 sponges or negative control sponges to e
