Cardiac disease is the leading cause of mortality and disability worldwide. We investigated the role of undifferentiated adipose tissue-derived mesenchymal stem cells (ADMSC) alone and ADMSC seeded onto the electro-spun nanofibers (NF) for reconstructing damaged cardiac tissue in isoprenaline-induced myocardial infarction (MI) in rats. ADMSC were sorted by morphological appearance and by detection of cluster of differentiation (CD) surface antigens. The therapeutic potential of ADMSC for treating MI was evaluated by electrocardiogram (ECG), biochemical analysis, molecular genetic analysis and histological examination. Treatment of MI-challenged rats with ADMSC improved ECG findings, which were corroborated by significant decreases in serum lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) and creatine kinase-MB (CK-MB) enzyme activities together with reduced serum troponin T (cTnT) and connexin 43 (Cx43) levels. MI model rats treated with ADMSC exhibited a significant increase in serum alpha sarcomeric actin (Actn) and GATA binding protein 4 (GATA4), and NK2 homeobox 5 ( NKX2.5)  gene expression was decreased following treatment with ADMSC. ADMSC also ameliorated damage to cardiac tissue. The effects of ADMSC seeded onto NF were superior to those of ADMSC alone. ADMSC may be useful for mitigation of MI.
