Cell-based regenerative therapy is undergoing experimental and clinical trials in cardiology, in order to limit the consequences of decreased contractile function and compliance of damaged ventricles following myocardial infarction. Over 1000 patients have been treated worldwide with cell-based procedures for myocardial regeneration. Cellular cardiomyoplasty seems to reduce the size and fibrosi...

objective(s):to examine the expressions of cd11a, cd11b, and cd11c integrins in the myocardial tissues of rats with isoproterenol-induced myocardial hypertrophy. this study also provided morphological data to investigate the signal transduction mechanisms of myocardial hypertrophy and reverse it. materials and methods: a myocardial hypertrophy model was established by subcutaneously injecting i...

in the present study,cardioprotective effect of aqueous extract of garcinia indica linn. fruit rinds in isoprenaline-induced myocardial infarction in wistar albino rats was evaluated. in vitro total phenolic, total flavonoid content and 2, 2’-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl hydrate radical scavenging activity was measured. in vivo effect of aqueous extract of g. indica was evaluated in wistar albino ...
