Abstract:Abstract:Objectives: In the previous study, although it has been shown that intramyocardial injection of human umbilical cord matrix stem cell (hUCM) improved cardiac function 4 weeks post MI, but angiogenesis has not been observed. Angiogenesis and replacing lost cardiomyocytes with new, live cardiomyocytes are considered as two key agents in cardiac repair. To achieve the above two factors we examined the effects of combination of stem cell and angiogenic therapy approaches by simultaneously injection of hUC… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
