Bone marrow derived mononuclear cells (MNCs) are an investigational autologous cell-based therapy for acute ischemic stroke. Both intravenous (IV) and intra-arterial (IA) administration routes have been used in clinical trials. However, the route of administration to optimize the effect of MNCs is unknown. In this study, we compared the effect of IV versus IA route of MNCs in the rat stroke model. Long Evans rats were subjected to transient middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAo). At 24 hrs after stroke, animals were randomly assigned to either receive autologous bone marrow derived MNCs using IV or IA delivery routes. IV saline served as control. 1 million cells/kg (low dose) and 30 million cells/kg (high dose) were assessed. Neurological testing, cavity size, serum cytokines, neuroregenerative endpoints, and MNC biodistribution were evaluated. High dose MNCs improved functional recovery, reduced lesion size and pro-inflammatory cytokines, and increased vessel density and neurogenesis markers compared with saline treatment (p<0.05). However, there were no significant differences between IV and IA MNC treated groups; though, IV MNCs reduced serum IL-1β levels compared with IA MNCs (p<0.05). IA MNCs at high dose led to a greater number of cells in the brain at 1 and 6 hrs after injection but not in the lungs and spleen. Low dose MNCs (by IV or IA) did not improve any functional or structural endpoint compared with saline. At low and high doses of MNCs, we found that IV or IA achieves similar structural and functional outcomes after stroke.
