BackgroundAutologous skeletal myoblast (SkM) injection has been used for repairing infracted myocardium. However, some clinical trials have been plagued by ventricular tachyarrhythmia. This study is investigated the cardiac electrical stability of porcine model after SkM sheet transplantation in infarcted myocardium.MethodsMale mini-pigs underwent LAD occlusion by a balloon catheter for 2 h, followed by reperfusion. After 4 weeks, 12 SkM sheets were implanted onto infarcted myocardium (Sheet-group n= 8), the same amount of cells were injected into the myocardium (Injection-group n= 7) and sham operations were performed (Sham-group n= 7). Implantable ECG loop recorder (ILR) was implanted subcutaneous on the left thorax. At 4 weeks after the transplantation, we assessed cardiac function with MDCT, interrogated ILR, and performed programmed ventricular stimulation (PVS). For assessing the inflammatory and injury response, inflammation factors, and high-sensitive CRP and Troponin-I were measured at 1, 3, 7, and 30 days after the transplantation by cytokine array method and ELISA, respectively. For observing inflammation, the tissues were stained immunochemically with anti-macrophage.ResultsSheet-group improved their cardiac function compared with Injection-group and Sham-group (left ventricular ejection fraction change: 5.8 ± 2.7, − 1.0 ± 2.6 and − 3.8 ± 1.8 % in Sheet, Injection and Sham-groups, respectively, P < 0.05 (ANOVA)). No VF was detected by ILR in all groups, while VT was detected in one pig of Injection-group. The percentage of animals in which VF was induced was 25.0%, 71.4% and 28.6%, respectively. Toroponin-I and IL-6 levels increase in Injection-group compared with Sheet and Sham-groups. Although there are no migrating cells into myocardium in Sheet-group, anti-macrophage positive cells were observed around injected cells in myocardium in Injection-group.ConclusionsSkM sheets transplantation in infarcted myocardium improved cardiac function over SkM Injection without increasing arrhythmogenicity. Myocardium inflammation may increase the arrhythmia risk.
