Table 1. Effect of stem cell modifications on in vivo targeted delivery.
Figure 1. Complementary glycoengineering methods to enhance stem cell delivery. Coupling the recombinant PSGL-1 protein (19Fc[FUT7+]) to stem cell surface enhances cell binding to P-selectin. Overexpression of the α(1,3)fucosyltransferase FUT7, on the other hand, enhances cell binding to E-selectin. CDCs functionalized with both modifications were retained in the pig heart in a brief ischemia-reperfusion model (ref.Citation7).
