The translation of stem cell therapies has been hindered by low cell survival and retention rates. Injectable hydrogels enable the site-specific delivery of therapeutic cargo, including cells, to overcome these challenges. We hypothesized that delivery of mesenchymal stem cells (MSC) via shear-thinning and injectable hyaluronic acid (HA) hydrogels would mitigate renal damage following ischemia-reperfusion acute kidney injury. Acute kidney injury (AKI) was induced in mice by bilateral or unilateral ischemia-reperfusion kidney injury. Three days later, mice were treated with MSCs either suspended in media injected intravenously via the tail vein, or injected under the capsule of the left kidney, or MSCs suspended in HA injected under the capsule of the left kidney. Serial measurements of serum and urine biomarkers of renal function and injury, as well as transcutaneous glomerular filtration rate (tGFR) were performed. In vivo optical imaging showed that MSCs localized to both kidneys in a sustained manner after bilateral ischemia and remained within the ipsilateral treated kidney after unilateral ischemic AKI. One month after injury, MSC/HA treatment significantly reduced urinary NGAL compared to controls; it did not significantly reduce markers of fibrosis compared to untreated controls. An analysis of kidney proteomes revealed decreased extracellular matrix remodeling and high overlap with sham proteomes in MSC/HA-treated animals. Hydrogel-assisted MSC delivery shows promise as a therapeutic treatment following acute kidney injury. |
