Sphere ‐Induced Rejuvenation of Swine and Human Müller Glia Is Primarily Caused by Telomere Elongation
This article is protected by copyright. All rights reserved. Primary swine and human Müller glial cells isolated from the adult retinal tissue and conditioned in vitro suffer a great deal of physical and physiological stresses causing telomere attrition and leading to either cell senescence or death. Sphere suspension culture activates telomere elongation and induces expression of stemness factors not only for rejuvenation of both swine and human Müller cells, but probably also for immortalization of swine Müller cells. At the end, the rejuvenated cells would die of cellular senescence when the entire survival populati...

Vascular smooth muscle cells derived from inbred swine induced pluripotent stem cells for vascular tissue engineering.
Abstract Development of autologous tissue-engineered vascular constructs using vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) derived from human induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) holds great potential in treating patients with vascular disease. However, preclinical, large animal iPSC-based cellular and tissue models are required to evaluate safety and efficacy prior to clinical application. Herein, swine iPSC (siPSC) lines were established by introducing doxycycline-inducible reprogramming factors into fetal fibroblasts from a line of inbred Massachusetts General Hospital miniature swine that accept tissue and organ tr...

Grafted Miniature-Swine Neural Stem Cells of Early Embryonic Mesencephalic Neuroepithelial Origin can Repair the Damaged Neural Circuitry of Parkinson’s Disease Model Rats
Publication date: 21 August 2018Source: Neuroscience, Volume 386Author(s): Yutaka Mine, Toshihiko Momiyama, Takuro Hayashi, Takeshi KawaseAbstractAlthough recent progress in the use of human iPS cell-derived midbrain dopaminergic progenitors is remarkable, alternatives are essential in the strategies of treatment of basal-ganglia-related diseases.Attention has been focused on neural stem cells (NSCs) as one of the possible candidates of donor material for neural transplantation, because of their multipotency and self-renewal characteristics. In the present study, miniature-swine (mini-swine) mesencephalic neuroepithelial s...

Effect of Rapamycin on mesenchymal stem cells treatment for swine myocardial infarction
Conclusions: Four weeks after MSCs transplantation for curing AMI, the myocardial perfusion and glucose metabolism improved significantly in the Rapamycin group; however, the cardiac function was decreased. It is speculated that Rapamycin might have impacted the effect of MSCs transplantation in infarcted hearts. The mechanism needs further research.

Mesenchymal Stem Cells Alleviate Post-resuscitation Cardiac and Cerebral Injuries by Inhibiting Cell Pyroptosis and Ferroptosis in a Swine Model of Cardiac Arrest
Following cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR), the ensuing cardiac and cerebral injuries contribute to the poor outcome of cardiac arrest (CA) victims, in which the pathogenetic process is possibly driven by cell pyroptosis and ferroptosis. Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) have been shown to be a promising strategy for post-resuscitation cardiac and cerebral protection in rat, but its effectiveness in the clinically relevant swine model and the potential protective mechanism remain unknown. The present study was designed to investigate whether MSCs administration could alleviate post-resuscitation cardiac and cerebral injurie...

Characterization of different in vitro culture conditions to induce a fibro-chondrogenic differentiation of swine adipose-derived stem cells.
Authors: Tessaro I, Di Giancamillo A, Benasciutti E, Nguyen VT, Polito U, Mangiavini L, Peretti GM Abstract Meniscus repair is still a challenge for orthopaedic surgeons as this tissue has a scarce healing potential due to the limited vascularization and to the lack of progenitor cells. Lately, several tissue engineering strategies combining cells and scaffolds have been developed. Adipose-derived stem cells (ASCs) represent a novel cell source for meniscus repair as they are easy to harvest, and they possess an intrinsic chondrogenic potential. The aim of our study was to analyze and compare the chondrogenic diffe...

Customized 3D-printed occluders enabling the reproduction of consistent and stable heart failure in swine models
AbstractReproducibility of clinical output is important when investigating therapeutic efficacy in pre-clinical animal studies. Due to its physiological relevance, a swine myocardial infarction (MI) model has been widely used to evaluate the effectiveness of stem cells or tissue-engineered constructs for ischemic heart diseases. Several methods are used to induce MI in the swine model. However, it is difficult, using these approaches, to obtain a similar level of functional outcomes from a group of animals due to interpersonal variation, leading to increased experimental cost. Hence, in order to minimize human intervention...

Methods for Transepicardial Cell Transplantation in a Swine Myocardial Infarction Model
Methods Mol Biol. 2022;2485:191-212. doi: 10.1007/978-1-0716-2261-2_13.ABSTRACTThe transplantation of human pluripotent stem cell-derived cardiomyocytes (hPSC-CMs) has garnered significant attention as a potential means of restoring lost muscle mass and contractile function in injured hearts. Early preclinical work with hPSC-CMs employed rodent models, but the field has recently advanced to transplantation studies in more translationally relevant large animal models including non-human primates and swine. The pig is a particularly attractive model for such studies because the size, structure, and physiology of the porcine ...

Miniature-swine iPSC-derived GABA progenitor cells function in a rat Parkinson's disease model
Cell Tissue Res. 2023 Jan 16. doi: 10.1007/s00441-022-03736-4. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTInduced pluripotent stem cells (iPS cells) are considered a promising source of cell-based therapy for the treatment of Parkinson's disease (PD). Recent studies have shown forebrain GABA interneurons have crucial roles in many psychiatric disorders, and secondary changes in the GABA system play a directly effect on the pathogenesis of PD. Here, we first describe an efficient differentiation procedure of GABA progenitors (MiPSC-iGABAPs) from miniature-swine iPSCs through two major developmental stages. Then, the MiPSC-iGABAPs were s...
