The authors have shown accelerated endothelialization
on polyethylene terephthalate (PET) grafts preclotted with autologous bone marrow. Bone marrow cells have a subset of early progenitor cells
that express the CD34 antigen on their surfaces. A recent in vitro
study has shown that CD34+ cells can differentiate into
endothelial cells. The current study was designed to determine whether
CD34+ progenitor cells would enhance vascular graft
healing in a canine model. The authors used composite grafts implanted
in the dog's descending thoracic aorta (DTA) for 4 weeks. The 8-mm × 12-cm composite grafts had a 4-cm PET graft in the center and 4-cm
standard ePTFE grafts at each end. The entire composite was coated with silicone rubber to make it impervious; thus, the PET segment was shielded from perigraft and pannus ingrowth. There were 5 study grafts
and 5 control grafts. On the day before surgery, 120 mL bone marrow was
aspirated, and CD34+ cells were enriched using an
immunomagnetic bead technique, yielding an average of 11.4 ±
5.3 × 106. During surgery, these cells were mixed with
venous blood and seeded onto the PET segment of composite study grafts;
the control grafts were treated with venous blood only.
Hematoxylin and eosin, immunocytochemical, and AgNO3
staining demonstrated significant increases of surface
endothelialization on the seeded grafts (92% ± 3.4% vs 26.6% ± 7.6%; P = .0001) with markedly increased microvessels in
the neointima, graft wall, and external area compared with controls. In
dogs, CD34+ cell seeding enhances vascular graft
endothelialization; this suggests practical therapeutic applications.
