Development of Bioactive Patch for Maintenance of Implanted Cells at the Myocardial Infarcted Site

Ischemia produced as a result of myocardial infarction might cause moderate or severe tissue death. Studies under development propose grafting stem cells into the affected area and we hypothesize that this mechanism could be enhanced by the application of a “bioactive implant.” The implant herein pr...
