Effect of Once vs. Twice Intracoronary Injection of Allogeneic-Derived Mesenchymal Stromal Cells after Acute Myocardial Infarction: BOOSTER-TAHA7 Randomized Clinical Trial
Abstract:Background: Mesenchymal stromal cell (MSC) transplantation can improve the left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) after an acute myocardial infarction (AMI). Transplanted MSCs apparently exert a paracrine effect, which might be augmented if repeated doses are administered. This study aimed to compare the effects of single vs.double transplantation of Wharton’s jelly MSCs (WJ-MSCs) on LVEF post-AMI.
Methods: We conducted a single-blind, randomized, multicenter trial. After 3-7 days of an AMI treated successf… Show more
