Abstract (original English)
Therapeutic angiogenesis with autologous stem/progenitor cells is a promising novel strategy for treatment of severe ischemic diseases. Human clinical trials utilizing autologous adipose-derived regenerative cells (ADRCs) have not reported treatment-related critical adverse effects thus far. However, there is still a large knowledge gap regarding whether treatment of ischemic diseases with angiogenic therapy using ADRCs would promote unfavorable angiogenesis associated with tumors in vivo. Herein, we addressed this clinical question using a mouse hindlimb ischemia (HLI) and simultaneous remote tumor implantation model. C57BL/6J background wild-type mice were injected with murine B16F10 melanoma cells on their back, 1 day before ischemic surgery. These mice were subjected to surgical unilateral hindlimb ischemia, followed by ADRC implantation or PBS injection into the hindlimb ischemic muscles on the next day. Intramuscular implantation of ADRCs enhanced tissue capillary density and blood flow examined by a laser Doppler blood perfusion analysis in hind limb. However, this therapeutic regimen for ischemic limb using ADRCs did not affect remote melanoma growth nor the density of its feeder artery, angiogenesis, and lymphatic vessels compared with the PBS group. In addition, no distant metastases were detected in any of the mice regardless of the group. In conclusion, local implan
