Percutaneous Adventitial Delivery of Allogeneic Bone Marrow-Derived Stem Cells via Infarct-Related Artery Improves Long-Term Ventricular Function in Acute Myocardial Infarction

Acute myocardial infarction (AMI) results in ischemic damage and death of cardiomyocytes and loss of vasculature. Stem cell therapy has emerged as a potentially promising strategy for maximizing cardiac function following ischemic injury. Issues of cell source, delivery, and quantification of respon...
