Résumé
Stem cell therapy is among the novel approaches for the treatment of post-myocardial infarction cardiomyopathy. This study aims to compare the effect of stromal-derived factor 1 α (SDF1α), mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) in combination with the lentiviral production of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) on infarct area, vascularization and eventually cardiac function in a rat model of myocardial infarction (MI). The influence of SDf1α on MSCs survival was investigated. MSCs were transduced via a lentiviral vector containing VEGF. After that, the effect of mesenchymal stem cell transfection of VEGF-A165 and SDf1α preconditioning on cardiac function and scar size was investigated in five groups of MI rat models. The MSC survival, cardiac function, scar size, angiogenesis, and lymphocyte count were assessed 72 hours and 6 weeks after cell transplantation. SDF1α decreased the lactate dehydrogenase release in MSCs significantly. Also, the number of viable cells in the SDF1α-pretreated group was meaningfully more than the control. The left ventricular systolic function significantly enhanced in groups with These findings suggest that SDF1α pretreatment and overexpressing VEGF in MSCs could augment the MSCs' survival in the infarcted myocardium, reduce the scar size, and improve the cardiac systolic function.

BACKGROUND
Stem cell therapy is among the novel approaches for the treatment of post-myocardial infarction cardiomyopathy. This study aims to compare the effect of stromal-derived factor 1 α (SDF1α), mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) in combination with the lentiviral production of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) on infarct area, vascularization and eventually cardiac function in a rat model of myocardial infarction (MI).
METHODS
The influence of SDf1α on MSCs survival was investigated. MSCs were transduced via a lentiviral vector containing VEGF. After that, the effect of mesenchymal stem cell transfection of VEGF-A165 and SDf1α preconditioning on cardiac function and scar size was investigated in five groups of MI rat models. The MSC survival, cardiac function, scar size, angiogenesis, and lymphocyte count were assessed 72 hours and 6 weeks after cell transplantation.
RESULTS
SDF1α decreased the lactate dehydrogenase release in MSCs significantly. Also, the number of viable cells in the SDF1α-pretreated group was meaningfully more than the control. The left ventricular systolic function significantly enhanced in groups with
CONCLUSIONS
These findings suggest that SDF1α pretreatment and overexpressing VEGF in MSCs could augment the MSCs' survival in the infarcted myocardium, reduce the scar size, and improve the cardiac systolic function.
