Abstract
Emerging evidence suggests that adipose tissue-derived stem cells (ASCs) can be used for the treatment of ischemic heart diseases. However, the mechanisms underlying their therapeutic effects have not been clearly defined. In this study cytokines released by ASCs were detected by ELISA and pro-angiogenic effects were assessed by tube formation assay. To define the anti-apoptotic effect of ASCs, neonatal rat cardiomyocytes were subjected to...
