Core Tip |
Although multiple studies have been published on stem cell therapy (SCT) in ischemic cardiac disease, no universal conclusion regarding its clinical efficacy has been given in part due to the lack of appropriate end-points. A rightful appreciation of SCT impact should be made considering multiple parameters from diverse categories, either objective - evaluating structural and biological functions, or subjective - patient orientated impacting daily quality of life. Current end-points, but also novel parameters investigating molecular pathways and new imaging methods with labelled cells genetically modified are being analytically discussed in this review, disclosing high heterogeneity in SCT efficacy assessment. |
