The earlier MOT results in better efficacy in animal models of urgent diseases such as ischemic stroke, and traumatic brain and spinal cord injuries. There is no long-term method to preserve mitochondria. Routine MOT procedure from cell growth to mitochondrial injection often takes serval weeks and is not satisfactory for urgent use cases. Hypothesis: Cryopreserved cells might be mitochondrial donors for MOT. Methods: We isolated mitochondria from cryopreserved human fibroblasts and mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) in cell banks and compared the mitochondrial viability and transplantation with the mitochondria from fresh cells. Key findings: We found that mitochondria from fresh and cryopreserved cells are comparable in mitochondrial viability and transplantation. We also obtained data showing that mitochondria of fibroblasts and MSCs had similar membrane potential and transfer ability, but MSC’s mitochondria had higher ATP content than fibroblast’s mitochondria. In addition, oxygen consumption rates (OCRs) were higher in MSC’s mitochondria compared to fibroblast’s mitochondria and did not change between fresh and frozen cells. Conclusion: Cryopreserved fibroblasts and MSCs are alternative mitochondrial donors for MOT to fresh cells. MSCs could provide higher ATP-produced mitochondria than fibroblasts.展开更多
