Establishment of Zebrafish Models for Studying Mesenchymal Stromal Cell Therapy for Cardiac Disease

Bone marrow (BM)-derived mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) can be induced to express cardiac-specific markers by embryonic cardiomyocytes in vitro. To determine whether this phenomenon occurs in vivo, we have developed a cell transplantation system using zebrafish embryonic recipients. We were unable...
