Core Tip |
We report results derived from a feasibility study on pigs whose left anterior descending (LAD) artery was occluded for 180 min. Four weeks later, 18 106 fresh, uncultured, unmodified, autologous adipose-derived regenerative cells were retrogradely delivered into the balloon blocked LAD vein (control: delivery of saline). Another six weeks later, mean left ventricular mass (+29%; P < 0.001) and cardiac output (+37%; P = 0.002) had significantly increased after delivery of cells. The unique combination of the procedure used for isolating stem cells and the novel cell delivery route applied in the present study potentially opens new horizons for clinical therapy for chronic myocardial infarction. |
