Influence of Cell Treatment with PDGF-BB and Reperfusion on Cardiac Persistence of Mononuclear and Mesenchymal Bone Marrow Cells after Transplantation into Acute Myocardial Infarction in Rats

Bone marrow cells are used for cell therapy after myocardial infarction (MI) with promising results. However, cardiac persistence of transplanted cells is rather low. Here, we investigated strategies to increase the survival and cardiac persistence of mononuclear (MNC) and mesenchymal (MSC) bone mar...
