Cell Type: Isolated CD34⁺Cells Most Able to Improve Perfusion,
Prevent Apoptosis and Rescue Hibernating Cardiomyocytes
CD34⁺ Cells Exhibit Increased Potency and Safety for Therapeutic Neovascularization after
AMI Compared with Total Mononuclear Cells in Nude Rats:
PBS = Phosphate-buffered saline
loMNCs = 5x10^5 MNC
hiMNCs = contains 5x10^5 CD34+ cells
within MNCs
CD34+ = 5x10^5 CD34+ cells
Capillary Density (perfusion) is greatest in CD34+ cell cohort, and this
correlates with decreased incidence of fibrosis. Effect increases with dose.

Circulating progenitor cells in acute coronary
syndromes: comparison with stable CAD
 90 ACS patients (mean age 65±15 yrs, 73% male, 10% STEMI, 76% NSTEMI, and 13%
unstable angina)
 Blood samples were obtained at the time of cardiac catheterization for enumeration of
CPCs as CD45dim cells using flow cytometry.
An age- and gender-matched (1:2) cohort of stable CAD patients were randomly selected
as a control group

Results
 Effect of mental stress on acute mobilization of progenitor cells
• MS challenge provoked an average 21% increase in the number of circulating
CD34+/VEGF2R+/CXCR4+ cells
 Relationship between progenitor cells and ischemia during mental
stress
 Patients with mental stress ischemia had higher circulating number of
CXCR4-expressing cells at baseline
Circulating Progenitor Cells and Coronary Microvascular Dysfunction: Results
from the NHLBI-Sponsored Women’s Ischemia Syndrome Evaluation - Coronary
Vascular Dysfunction (WISE-CVD) Study
Patients:
•
160 women enrolled in the WISE-CVD
Study with ischemia during stress
testing
•
No obstructive CAD
Protocol:
•
CFR measured as ratio of hyperemic
average peak velocity (APV) in
response to intracoronary adenosine
to baseline APV
•
Lower CFR with adenosine correlated
significantly with higher levels of
CD34+, CD34+/CD133+ and
CD34+/CXCR4+ cells
Circulating Progenitor Cells and Coronary Microvascular Dysfunction: Results
from the NHLBI-Sponsored Women’s Ischemia Syndrome Evaluation - Coronary
Vascular Dysfunction (WISE-CVD) Study
Patients:
•
160 women enrolled in the WISE-CVD
Study with ischemia during stress
testing
•
No obstructive CAD
Protocol:
•
Microvascular endothelial function
measured as the CBF response to
intracoronary acetylcholine (n=48)
•
Lower CBF with acetylcholine
correlated significantly with higher
CD34+/CXCR4+ and CD34+/VEGF+.
Progenitor Cells and ischemic syndromes
• ACS is associated with mobilization of VEGF2R and CXCR4
expressing PCs
• Subjects with microvascular coronary ischemia with reduced
flow reserve and endothelial dysfunction have higher
circulating PC subsets
• PC expressing CXCR4, denoting cells with a capacity to home
to areas of ischemia, are increased in those who develop
ischemia during MS.
• This suggests that even mild ischemia during daily living
may stimulate PC mobilization.

Patients undergoing coronary angiography: Treated with guideline

502 patients in a Discovery cohort ;
403 patients in a Validation cohort.
Total Pooled 905; age 63yrs; 65% male
•
PCs were enumerated by flow cytometry as CD45med+ blood
mononuclear cells expressing CD34, CD133, VEGFR2 and/or CXCR4
•
Followed patients in each cohort for a mean of 2.7 & 1.2 years, for the
primary endpoint of death or myocardial infarction (MI).
92 death/MI (10%)
Higher counts of CD34+ and CD34+/CD133+ cells correlated with:
younger age (p<0.001 both),
male gender (p=0.04 and p<0.011)
higher GFR (p<0.001 both)
Higher CD34+/CD133+ also with greater BMI (p<0.001).

Relationship Between circulating Progenitor Cell Counts and Long term

Conclusion: Low levels of circulating PCs, defined as co-expression of
CD34 and CD133 and CXCR4 epitopes are robustly associated with risk
of future death/MI in patients with CAD.
Implications;
(1) CD34+/CD133+ cells that are enriched for bone marrow-derived
hematopoietic and endothelial progenitors, may represent an index of
global regenerative potential
(2) PCs protect or regenerate damaged endothelium by local or systemic
paracrine effects,
(3) The predictive value of PCs as risk markers was equal or greater than
conventional risk factors such as smoking.
