Seeding Human Mesenchymal Stem Cells into Fibrin-Based Scaffolds - A Potential for a Future Angiogenic Therapy?

Published: Jan 1, 2009
Abstract
Experimental studies have demonstrated that mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) can induce neovascularization and improve heart function in ischemic myocardium. There is evidence to suggest that these cells can promote angiogenesis, presumably on account of the “paracrine effect”. A main obstacle to effective cell therapy is the lack of an optimal cell delivery technique. Furthermore, recipient ischemic tissue may be inadequate for retention of donor...
