Investigation of Cardiac Failure Therapy by Transplanting Skeletal Satellite Cells / 中国医师杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective Satellite cells(SCs) transplantation was tried to improve cardiac function in this experiment.Methods A myocaridium infarction was created in 23 male Suzhong pigs by ligating the diagonal ramus,and the alive pigs were divided into the experimental group and the control group.SCs were extracted,purified,cultured by modified Dorfman method,and were transplanted into myocardium by intramyocardial injection.By pathomorphological research,we observed the therapeutic outcomes of heart failure.Results ⑴10 pigs were alive(5 in the control group,and the other 5 in the experimental group).The successful rate of making mould was 43 5%.⑵After cultured in vitro for 3 days,SCs were spindle-shaped,and sticked to walls.SCs growth were stasis and each other fusing into form myotube when we delayed to divede Petri dishs or reduced the concentration of Fetus Bovine Serum(FBS) in the culture medium.⑶In the experimental group,neonate skeletal muscle cells were observed in the infarction regions,which were multi-nuclei near edges.These cells aligned in an accordance direction.Intercalated disks were not found between them.The capillary density in experimental group was much higher than the control group.Conclusions Autograft of SCS can be alive in acceptor,and improve the heart function by altering cardiac compliance and configuration,or by stimulating the blood capillary proliferation.SCs don't form intercalated disks with remnant myocardial cells,so synchro-contraction will not occur between them,but malign arrhythmia are not found.
