Cardiomyocytes derived from human embryonic stem cells (hESC-CMs) can improve the contractility of injured hearts. We hypothesized that mesodermal cardiovascular progenitors (hESC-CVPs), capable of generating vascular cells in addition to cardiomyocytes, would provide superior repair by contributing to multiple components of myocardium. We performed a head-to-head comparison of hESC-CMs and hESC-CVPs and compared these with the most commonly used clinical cell type, human bone marrow mononuclear cells (hBM-MNCs). In a nude rat model of myocardial infarction, hESC-CMs and hESC-CVPs generated comparable grafts. Both similarly improved systolic function and ventricular dilation. Furthermore, only rare human vessels formed from hESC-CVPs. hBM-MNCs attenuated ventricular dilation and enhanced host vascularization without engrafting long-term or improving contractility. Thus, hESC-CMs and CVPs show similar efficacy for cardiac repair, and both are more efficient than hBM-MNCs. However, hESC-CVPs do not form larger grafts or more significant numbers of human vessels in the infarcted heart. Transplantation of hBM-MNCs can halt the negative remodeling of the infarcted heart Both hESC-derived cardiovascular progenitors and definitive cardiomyocytes improve contractility hBM-MNCs lead to greater vessel number than hESC-derived cells In the present study, Murry and colleagues compared the impact of three promising cellular sources for cardiac repair on host cardiac remodeling and contractile function of the infarcted rat heart. After transplantation, human bone marrow mononuclear cells halt the deterioration of left ventricular contractile function. In contrast, human embryonic stem cell (hESC)-derived cardiovascular progenitors and definitive cardiomyocytes both improved systolic function and negative remodeling of the infarcted hearts.
