A bio-hybrid vascular graft with local delivery of nitric oxide (NO) has been fabricated by incorporating a nitrate-functionalized prosthesis into a decellularized porcine vein graft, which efficiently promotes vascular regeneration and attenuates adverse pathologic remodeling in rabbit and mouse models.
Vascular bypass surgery continues to use autologous grafts and often suffers from a shortage of donor grafts. Decellularized xenografts derived from porcine veins provide a promising candidate because of their abundant availability and low immunogenicity. Unfortunately, transplantation outcomes are far from satisfactory because of insufficient regeneration and adverse pathologic remodeling. Herein, a nitrate-functionalized prosthesis has been incorporated into a decellularized porcine vein graft to fabricate a bio-hybrid vascular graft with local delivery of nitric oxide (NO). Exogenous NO efficiently promotes vascular regeneration and attenuates intimal hyperplasia and vascular calcification in both rabbit and mouse models. The underlying mechanism was investigated using a Sca1 2A-CreER; Rosa-RFP genetic-lineage-tracing mouse model that reveals that Sca1(+) stem/progenitor cells (SPCs) are major contributors to vascular regeneration and remodeling, and NO plays a critical role in regulating SPC fate. These results support the translational potential of this off-the-shelf vascular graft.
