Intramyocardial Stem Cell Transplantation in Cardiac Surgery: From Preclinical Backgrounds to the PERFECT trial
ثبت نشده
چکیده
After initial reports of successful stem cell delivery to the injured heart, the clinical feasibility and safety of this new therapeutic strategy has been established, thereby focusing on the treatment of ischemic heart disease. Over 3000 patients with either recent myocardial infarction or chronic ischemic heart failure have been treated so far by means of interventional cardiology and cardiac surgery. Prospective clinical studies could prove the safety of both interventional intracoronary stem cell injection as well as surgical intramyocardial cell injection (4, 5).

Objective(s):Although previous studies have confirmed the beneficial effects of human umbilical cord matrix stem cell (hUCM) transplantation post myocardial infarction (MI), but this stem cell resource has no potential to induce angiogenesis. In order to achieve the process of angiogenesis and cardiomyocyte regeneration, two required factors for cardiac repair agents were examined namely; hUCM ...

متن کاملMesenchymal stem cells from umbilical cord tissue as potential therapeutics for cardiomyodegenerative diseases – a review
Heart failure is one of the leading causes of death worldwide. End stage disease often requires heart transplantation, which is hampered by donor organ shortage. Tissue engineering represents a promising alternative approach for cardiac repair. For the generation of artificial heart muscle tissue several cell types, scaffold materials and bioreactor designs are under investigation. In this revi...
متن کاملRole of Stem Cells in Cardiac Cell Therapy and Tissue Engineering
Background: In spite of promising results of conventional treatments for myocardial infarction, including medications, stent implantation, and coronary artery bypass grafting, the disease and its complications, especially heart failure, are highly prevalent because these methods could not reverse the cell loss, which is the main problem. Currently, heart transplantation, as the last option f...
