IntroductionCell sheet technology is one of the most successful methodologies in regenerative medicine. Various applications of cell sheets have been introduced in first-in-human studies in several clinical fields. When transplanting a cell sheet into internal organs, a relatively large incision is required for delivery due to difficulty handling the sheet. We developed a laparoscopic delivery procedure for safe and easy transplantation of cell sheets in a porcine model.MethodsPneumoperitoneum was established by inflation with CO2. First, to increase the strength during handling, fibrin was sprayed onto the surface of the cell sheet, and then a myoblast sheet was placed onto the newly developed carrier. The sheets were pinched with laparoscopic forceps to insert into the abdominal cavity through the laparoscopic port. Myoblast sheets were then applied to the surface of the liver, colon, small intestine, and stomach, and procedure times were measured. At three days post transplantation, a histopathological examination was performed to confirm engraftment of the sheet. The function and engraftment were also analyzed in a duodenal endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) model.ResultsThe fibrin-processed myoblast sheet was able to be managed with conventional laparoscopic forceps without breaking. Despite the drastic change in air pressure by passing through the laparoscopic port, the sheets suffered no apparent damage. The transplantation procedure times did not markedly differ among transplant sites. A histopathological examination revealed thin-layered, desmin-positive cells at each transplant site. With transplantation following ESD, the engrafted myoblast sheets effectively prevented delayed perforation.ConclusionsOur procedure is simple, and the system involves a carrier made of medically fit silicon, commercially available fibrin glue and conventional laparoscopic forceps. Our procedure is a powerful tool for laparoscopical cell sheet transplantation.
