Abstract:
Pigs are the most promising models for the study of wound healing and hypertrophic scarring because they are anatomically and physiologically similar to human beings. The Red Duroc pig and Mini Bama pig are two swine models that have attracted a lot of attention. The aim of the present study was to examine and compare the scarring process in a red Duroc pig and a Mini Bama pig, providing knowledge for researchers and clinicians to enable them to choose the most suitable pig model for studies.

Abstract:
The cloning of miniature pigs (Mini-pig) are considered to advance in genetic engineering technology and xenotransplantation. A few researches have recently been reported successfully produce cloned Mini-pigs using somatic cells, however its efficiency is still low. The present study was aimed to successfully produce cloned Mini-pigs derived from bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) by NT, and compared the developmental ability of cloned Mini-pigs between fetal fibroblast (FF) and differentiated MSCs. For the production of the cloned Mini-pig derived from MSCs, MSCs were isolated from a 1 month old of female Mini-pigs (T-type, PWG Micro-pig®, PWG Genetics Korea, Ltd.). MSCs were differentiated into osteocytes, adipocytes, and chondrocytes under controlled conditions and characterized by cell surface antigen profile using specific markers. These differentiated or undifferentiated MSCs, FFs of Mini-pig were transferred into enucleated oocytes of domestic pigs, and 2-cell stage of 100 NT embryos were surgical transferred to the synchronized recipients. Statistical analysis was performed using one-way ANOVA, t-test, Duncan’s and Tukey’s multiple comparisons test by SPSS (SPSS, Inc., Chicago, IL, USA). The developmental potential of NT embryos derived from MSCs (differentiated and undifferentiated), the rates of blastocyst formation was significantly (P < 0.05) higher than NT embryos derived from FFs, however the NT embryos derived from three different types of differentiated MSCs were significantly (P < 0.05) lower than undifferentiated MSCs. In addition, total cell numbers in NT blastocysts derived from MSCs were significantly (P < 0.05) higher than NT blastocysts derived from FFs, but it did not significantly (P < 0.05) differ between differentiated or undifferentiated MSCs. NT embryos derived from MSCs were transferred to 5 domestic pig recipients, and 5 cloned Mini-pigs were obtained from 2 recipients (one stillbirth and 4 viable offspring). All of them were confirmed by the microsatellite analysis (8 markers) of the genomes of cloned offspring, donor MSCs and recipients. Physical and histological studies are in the process for the characterization of a cloned Mini-pig derived from MSCs as animal model. The results demonstrated that, in vitro developmental ability of NT embryos derived from undifferentiated MSCs were a higher than those from differentiated MSCs or FFs. Moreover, multipotent MSC might have a potential for the production of viable cloned Mini-pigs. Therefore, MSCs as a nuclear donor might a key to improving the production of cloned Mini-pig as animal model for xenotransplantation.

Abstract:
1 The aim of this study was to determine the nature of the macromolecular alterations in Yucatan mini-pig skin which occur following application of sulphur mustard vapour, with particular reference to laminin and type IV collagen. 2 The immunostaining of transfer blots from skin extracts run on SDS-PAGE gels revealed no evidence of cross-link ing of type IV collagen or laminin. Laminin was, however, found to be partially degraded as determined by the reso lution of 132 and 143 kDa fragments, possibly by the acti vation of proteases, following the application of sulphur mustard to pig skin. Type IV collagen was not subject to this form of degradation in the skin samples exposed to sulphur mustard. 3 Yucatan mini-pig skin was found to develop microblis ters after exposure to sulphur mustard vapour. The immunohistochemical studies of sulphur mustard exposed skin revealed that separation of the epidermis from the dermis was found to occur within the lamina lucida of the subepidermal basement membrane, supporting the con tention that cleavage of laminin networks occurs following mustard challenge. Immunohistochemical staining with anti-type IV collagen antibodies was restricted to the floor of the micro-blister lesions. 4 The results suggest that laminin may be a target for pro tease activation at the dermo-epidermal junction. This may account for the tendency of certain skin models to develop sulphur mustard-induced blistering. The Yucatan mini-pig may be valuable as a model to determine the effi cacy of prophylactic and therapeutic regimes.

Abstract:
Acellular dermal matrix grafts (ADMG) have been used as soft tissue graft substitutes for autografts in periodontal plastic surgical procedures. They have benefits like avoiding a second surgical site and patient morbidity that have been associated with autografts, but there is limited evidence available on their tissue response and wound healing process. This histomorphometric animal model study was carried out in mini pigs and it aimed to compare the two types of ADMG materials of porcine derivative with a control group through observation of parameters like epithelial and Keratinized layer thickness, angiogenesis, cellularity, matrix resorption, and inflammatory infiltrate. The surgical technique involved punctures on the edentulous areas stripping the epithelial tissue and exposing the underlying connective tissue, placement of the ADMGs in the appropriate control and test sites. Following this, gingival biopsies were procured at three different time intervals of 15, 45, and 90 days. There were significant differences in epithelial and Keratinized layer thickness among the three groups. This study concluded that there was no clear consensus on which graft material was superior but it gave an insight into the tissue response and wound healing process associated with the graft materials.

Abstract:
The cell sheet technique is a promising approach for tissue engineering, and the present study is aimed to determine a better configuration of cell sheets for cartilage repair. For stratified chondrocyte sheets (S-CS), articular chondrocytes isolated from superficial, middle, and deep zones were stacked accordingly. Heterogeneous chondrocyte sheets (H-CS) were obtained by mixing zonal chondrocytes. The expressions of chondrocytes, cytokine markers, and glycosaminoglycan (GAG) production were assessed in an in vitro assay. The curative effect was investigated in an in vivo porcine osteochondral defect model. The S-CS showed a higher cell viability, proliferation rate, expression of chondrogenic markers, secretion of tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase, and GAG production level than the H-CS group. The expressions of ECM destruction enzyme and proinflammatory cytokines were lower in the S-CS group. In the mini-pigs articular cartilage defect model, the S-CS group had a higher International Cartilage Repair Society (ICRS) macroscopic score and displayed a zonal structure that more closely resembled the native cartilage than those implanted with the H-CS. Our study demonstrated that the application of the S-CS increased the hyaline cartilage formation and improved the surgical outcome of chondrocyte implication, offering a better tissue engineering strategy for treating articular cartilage defects.

Abstract:
Multipotent mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) are an object of intense investigation due to their therapeutic potential. MSCs have been well studied in vitro, while their fate after implantation in vivo has been poorly analyzed. We studied the properties of MSCs from the bone marrow (BM-MSC) before and after implantation under the renal capsule using a mini pig model. Autologous BM-MSCs were implanted under the kidney capsule. After 2.5 months, ectopic foci containing bones, foci of ectopic hematopoiesis, bone marrow stromal cells and muscle cells formed. Small pieces of the implant were cultivated as a whole. The cells that migrated out from these implants were cultured, cloned, analyzed and were proven to meet the most of criteria for MSCs, therefore, they are designated as MSCs from the implant—IM-MSCs. The IM-MSC population demonstrated high proliferative potential, similar to BM-MSCs. IM-MSC clones did not respond to adipogenic differentiation inductors: 33% of clones did not differentiate, and 67% differentiated toward an osteogenic lineage. The BM-MSCs revealed functional heterogeneity after implantation under the renal capsule. The BM-MSC population consists of mesenchymal precursor cells of various degrees of differentiation, including stem cells. These newly discovered properties of mini pig BM-MSCs reveal new possibilities in terms of their manipulation.

Abstract:
Background: Meniscal injury is a severe impediment to movement and results in accelerated deterioration of the knee joint. Purpose: To evaluate the effect of a novel meniscal scaffold prepared from polyglycolic acid coated with polylactic acid/caprolactone on the treatment of meniscal injury in a mini pig model. Study Design: Controlled laboratory study. Methods: The model was established with a 10-mm resection at the anterior medial meniscus on both knee joints. A scaffold was implanted in the right knee joint. The meniscal scaffold was inserted and sutured next to the native meniscus. The histological analysis was performed to determine meniscal regeneration with safranin O staining, cell proliferation with PCNA, inflammation with TNF, and collagen structure and production with picrosirius red and immunofluorescence. Cartilage degeneration was evaluated with Safranin O. Meniscal regeneration and joint fluid were evaluated with magnetic resonance imaging. Results: Although compressive stress and elastic modulus were significantly lower in the scaffold than in the native porcine menisci, ultimate tensile stress was similar. Implanted scaffolds were covered with tissue beginning at 4 weeks, with increased migration of proliferating cells to the implant area at 4 and 8 weeks. Scaffolds were absorbed with freshly produced collagen at 24 weeks. Cartilage degeneration was significantly lower in the meniscus-implanted group than in the meniscectomy group. Magnetic resonance imaging results did not show severe accumulation of joint fluids, suggesting negligible inflammation. Density of the implanted menisci was comparable with that of the native menisci. Conclusion: Meniscal scaffold prepared from polyglycolic acid has therapeutic potential for meniscal regeneration. Clinical Relevance: This meniscal scaffold can improve biological knee reconstruction and prevent the increase of total knee arthroplasty.

Abstract:
Background We recently reported that multilineage-differentiating stress enduring (Muse) cells intravenously administered after acute myocardial infarction (AMI), selectively engrafted to the infarct area, spontaneously differentiated into cardiomyocytes and vessels, reduced the infarct size, improved the left ventricular (LV) function and remodeling in rabbits. We aimed to clarify the efficiency of Muse cells in a larger animal AMI model of mini-pigs using a semi-clinical grade human Muse cell product. Method and result Mini-pigs underwent 30 min of coronary artery occlusion followed by 2 weeks of reperfusion. Semi-clinical grade human Muse cell product (1x107, Muse group, n = 5) or saline (Vehicle group, n = 7) were intravenously administered at 24 h after reperfusion. The infarct size, LV function and remodeling were evaluated by echocardiography. Arrhythmias were evaluated by an implantable loop recorder. The infarct size was significantly smaller in the Muse group (10.5±3.3%) than in the Vehicle group (21.0±2.0%). Both the LV ejection fraction and fractional shortening were significantly greater in the Muse group than in the Vehicle group. The LV end-systolic and end-diastolic dimensions were significantly smaller in the Muse group than in the Vehicle group. Human Muse cells homed into the infarct border area and expressed cardiac troponin I and vascular endothelial CD31. No arrhythmias and no blood test abnormality were observed. Conclusion Muse cell product might be promising for AMI therapy based on the efficiency and safety in a mini-pig AMI.

Abstract:
Objective To test different fixation methods of a 3-dimensionally woven poly(ϵ-caprolactone) (PCL) scaffold within chondral defects of a weightbearing large animal model. Methods Full thickness chondral defects were made in the femoral condyles of 15 adult male Yucatan mini-pigs. Two surgical approaches were compared including total arthrotomy (traditional) and a retinaculum-sparing, minimally invasive surgery (MIS) approach. Following microfracture (MFX), scaffolds were placed without fixation or were fixed with fibrin glue, suture, or subchondral anchor. Experimental endpoints were between 1 and 6 weeks. Micro–computed tomography and histology were used to assess samples. Results The MIS approach was superior as the traditional approach caused medial condyle cartilage wear. One of 13 (7.7%) of scaffolds without fixation, 4 of 11 (36.3%) fibrin scaffolds, 1 of 4 (25%) of sutured scaffolds, and 9 of 9 (100%) of anchor-fixed scaffolds remained in place. Histology demonstrated tissue filling with some overgrowth of PCL scaffolds. Conclusions Of the methods tested, the MIS approach coupled with subchondral anchor fixation provided the best scaffold retention in a mini-pig chondral defect model. This finding has implications for fixation strategies in future animal studies and potential future human use.

Abstract:
The natural limitations of regeneration in the CNS are major problems for the treatment of neurological disorders, including ischaemic brain strokes. Among the approaches being actively developed to inhibit post-ischaemic negative consequences is the delivery of therapeutic genes encoding neuroprotective molecules to the brain. Unfortunately, there are currently no proven and available medicines that contain recombinant human genes for the treatment of ischaemic cerebral stroke. Of particular interest is the development of treatments for patients at risk of ischaemic stroke. In the present study, we propose a proof of concept for the use of an autologous, genetically enriched leucoconcentrate temporally secreting recombinant vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), glial-cell-line-derived neurotrophic factor (GDNF) and the neural cell adhesion molecule (NCAM) for the treatment of stroke. In a mini-pig ischaemic stroke model, genetically enriched leucoconcentrate was infused 4 h after surgery (gene therapy in acute phase) or 2 days before stroke modelling (preventive gene therapy). On day 21, after the stroke modelling, the post-ischaemic brain recovery was examined by morphologic and immunofluorescence analysis. The benefits of treating a stroke with genetically enriched leucoconcentrate both for preventive purposes and in the acute phase were confirmed by an improved performance in behavioural tests, higher preservation of brain tissue and positive post-ischaemic brain remodelling in the peri-infarct area. These results suggest that the employment of autologous leucocytes enabling the temporary production of the recombinant therapeutic molecules to correct the pathological process in the CNS may be one of the breakthrough approaches in gene therapy.

Abstract:
Mucus was collected daily from open-ended pouches established surgically in three mini-pigs. After a five day control period bromhexine hydrochloride (BHCl) was administered to each pig at dose levels of 0.5, 1.0 and 2.0 mg.kg-1 twice daily for five days. Each study period was followed by a five day washout period, when mucus was collected but no drug given. The viscoelastic properties of each mucus sample were determined using creep compliance analysis. BHCl was shown to reduce the residual shear viscosity (p less than 0.05) and increase the instantaneous shear compliance at all dose levels (p less than 0.005), despite the large inherent intra- and inter-animal variation in the rheological properties of the daily samples. No change was found in the wet weight of the mucus samples throughout any of the study periods. This experimental model would appear to provide a valuable in vivo method of assessing the mucoregulatory potential of administered compounds.

Abstract:
Acute kidney injury is a serious health hazard disease due to its complex etiology and lack of effective treatments, resulting in high medical costs and high mortality. At present, a large number of basic research studies on acute kidney injury have been carried out. However, acute kidney injury models established in rodents sometimes do not simulate the course of human disease well. Research in large animal models of acute kidney injury is relatively rare, and methods to build a mature model of acute kidney injury have failed. Because its kidney anatomy and morphology are very similar to those in humans, the mini pig is an ideal animal in which to model kidney disease. Nephrotoxic drug-induced acute kidney injury has a high incidence. In this study, we established models of acute kidney injury induced by two drugs (gentamicin and cisplatin). Finally, the model of cisplatin-induced acute kidney injury was developed successfully, but we found the model of gentamycin-induced acute kidney injury was not reproducible. Compared to other models, these models better represent acute kidney injury caused by antibiotics and chemotherapeutic drugs and provide a basis for the study of new treatments for acute kidney injury in a large animal model.

Abstract:
Purpose. Hemiepiphysiodesis has been widely used to correct angular deformity of long bone in immature patients. However, there is a limited knowledge about the biomechanical effect of this technique on the histopathological changes of the growth plate and the mechanism of recurrence of malformation after implant removal. We aimed to evaluate the biomechanical effect of hemiepiphysiodesis on the histopathological changes of the growth plate and the mechanism of recurrence of malformation after implant removal in Bama miniature pigs, and to explore the role of asymmetric stress during this procedure. Methods. Eight 3-month-old male Bama miniature pigs sustained surgeries on the bilateral medial hind leg proximal tibia as the intervention group (n=16), and four pigs sustained bilateral sham surgeries as the control (n=8). In the 18th week after surgeries, hardware was removed in the unilateral leg of each animal in the intervention group. In the 24th week of the study, all animals were euthanized. A total of 24 samples were obtained and stained with H&E, TUNEL, and immunohistochemistry. Sixteen samples in the intervention group were divided into two subgroups. The tibias without an implant were included in the implant removal group (IR group), while the tibias with an implant were included in the implant persist group (IP group). The proximal tibia specimens were divided into 3 equidistant parts from medial to lateral, named as area A, area B, and area C, respectively. The change of thickness of growth plates, chondral apoptosis index, and the expression of Caspase-3, Caspase-9, CHOP, and P65 were compared. Results. H&E staining showed the thickness of growth plate to be varied in different areas. In the IP group, the thickness of growth plate in areas A and B was statistically significantly thinner than that in area C (p<0.05). In the IR group, the thickness of growth plate in areas A and B was statistically significantly thicker than that in area C (p<0.05). TUNEL staining showed that the apoptosis rate increased significantly after hemiepiphysiodesis and declined after implant removal (p<0.05). Immunohistochemical staining suggested that the expression of Caspase-3, Caspase-9, P65, and CHOP protein was upregulated in the experimental group and downregulated after implant removal. Conclusion. The thickness parameter of the growth plate changes with asymmetric pressure. When the pressure is relieved, the recurrence of malformation is related to the thickening of the growth plate.

Abstract:
Pigs share many anatomical and physiological features with humans, offering a unique and viable model for biomedical research. Although porcine female germline stem cells (FGSCs) were identified in the juvenile ovary, no reports described the isolation and purification of FGSCs from the pig at sexual maturity. Here, we isolated, purified, and cultured FGSCs from porcine ovaries at sexual maturity. Furthermore, we established and characterized the porcine FGSC (pFGSC) lines. In addition, we found that pFGSC lines could differentiate into oocytes when injection into tissue grafts, including human ovarian tissues. The results show that FGSCs exist in ovaries of Banna mini-pigs at juvenile and sexually maturity. These findings have implications in animal biotechnology applications and regeneration medicine.

Abstract:
Skeletal muscle is a major site for the oxidation of fatty acids (FA) in mammals, including humans. Using a swine model, we tested the hypothesis that dietary protein intake regulates the expression of key genes for lipid metabolism in skeletal muscle. A total of ninety-six barrows (forty-eight pure-bred Bama mini-pigs (fatty genotype) and forty-eight Landrace pigs (lean genotype)) were fed from 5 weeks of age to market weight. Pigs of fatty or lean genotype were randomly assigned to one of two dietary treatments (low- or adequate-protein diet), with twenty-four individually fed pigs per treatment. Our data showed that dietary protein levels affected the expression of genes involved in the anabolism and catabolism of lipids in the longissimus dorsi and biceps femoris muscles in a genotype-dependent manner. Specifically, Bama mini-pigs had more intramuscular fat, SFA and MUFA, as well as elevated mRNA expression levels of lipogenic genes, compared with Landrace pigs. In contrast, Bama mini-pigs had lower mRNA expression levels of lipolytic genes than Landrace pigs fed an adequate-protein diet in the growing phase. These data are consistent with higher white-fat deposition in Bama mini-pigs than in Landrace pigs. In conclusion, adequate provision of dietary protein (amino acids) plays an important role in regulating the expression of key lipogenic genes, and the growth of white adipose tissue, in a genotype- and tissue-specific manner. These findings have important implications for developing novel dietary strategies in pig production.
