ABSTRACT
The outcomes of tracheal transplantation for the treatment of airway stenosis are unsatisfactory. We investigated the feasibility of regeneration of the trachea using a rat decellularized tracheal scaffold and mouse-induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cells for in vivo transplantation. The rat trachea was first decellularized using a detergent/enzymatic treatment method. We successfully established a centrifugation method that can transplant cells onto the luminal surface of the decellularized rat tracheal scaffold circumferentially. Two types of mouse iPS cells were differentiated into definitive endoderm cells and transplanted onto the luminal surface of the decellularized tracheal matrix scaffold using this centrifugation method. For in vivo study, normal rat tracheas, no-cell rat tracheal scaffolds, or rat tracheal scaffolds recellularized with rat tracheal epithelial cells (EGV-4T) were orthotopically transplanted on F344 rats, and rat tracheal scaffolds recellularized with mouse iPS cells were transplanted on F344/NJc1-rnu/rnu rats. Rats transplanted with no-cell scaffolds or scaffolds recellularized with EGV-4T survived for 1 month, although airway stenosis was observed. One of the F344/NJc1-rnu/rnu rats transplanted with rat trachea regenerated using mouse iPS cells survived over 5 weeks. Histological analysis indicated the cause of death was airway stenosis due to colonic cellular proliferation of undifferentiated iPS cells. Re-epithelialization with numerous ciliated epithelial cells was observed in one of the rats transplanted with trachea bioengineered using iPS cells. In this study, we present a simple and efficient tracheal tissue engineering model using a centrifugation method in a small-animal model. Tissue-engineered trachea using decellularized tracheal scaffolds and iPS cells is potentially applicable for tracheal transplantation.
