To investigate whether decellularized vascular tissues and A20-regulated endothelial progenitor cells can be used for constructing a transgenic tissue-engineered blood vessel with anti-atherosclerotic vascular stenotic properties. A20 gene-transfected endothelial progenitor cells differentiated endothelial cells and smooth muscle cells attached to and migrated into the decellularized porcine vascular scaffolding in a bioreactor. The histology of the conduits revealed viable and layered tissue. Scanning electron microscopy showed confluent, homogeneous tissue surfaces. The mechanical strength of the pulsed constructs was similar to that of the human artery. In vivo, the A20 gene-transfected tissue-engineered blood vessels were transplanted into the carotid artery of a rat for 6 months. Blood vessel xenotransplantation caused hyperacute rejection; all transplanted control blood vessels were completely rejected, but A20-transfected tissue-engineered blood vessels demonstrated good flow on implantation, and remained open for 6 months postoperatively, as assessed by Doppler. The HE stain demonstrated that the vessels were patent, without evidence of stenosis or dilatation after 6 months. These results demonstrate that transgenic tissue-engineered blood vessels have long-term patency and unique anti-stenotic properties.
