Stem Cells

Cardiac stem cell therapy is a revolutionary treatment of very severe heart failure whereby specially prepared stem cells are injected into the patient’s heart. It is only used as a last resort for the treatment of a failing heart, where other medical or surgical treatments failed. The cardiac stem cell therapy process is thought to [...]

Cardiac stem cell therapy is used to replace and repair damaged cells in the blood vessels and the walls of the chambers and blood vessels of the heart. One of the main medical areas using cardiac stem cell therapy is in the repair of damage caused to the human heart by heart attacks and degenerative [...]

Cardiac stem cell therapy is a field of scientific research with the goal to translate into clinical benefit the initial findings obtained in basic research laboratories. Certain types of cardiac cells are targeted in stem cell therapy that is known to respond well to growth in a laboratory. A major goal of this therapy is [...]

Stem cell therapy is the introduction of new cells in the body. These cells are used to replace damaged tissue so an injury or disease can be treated. The use of stem cell in these treatments is attributed to the stem cell’s capacity to regenerate. Moreover, the utilization of stem cells has nominal peril of [...]

Cardiac Stem Cell Therapy Heart failure is the leading cause of death worldwide, and current therapies only delay progression of the disease. Laboratory experiments and recent clinical trials suggest that cell-based therapies can improve cardiac function, and the implications of this for cardiac regeneration are causing great excitement. Bone-marrow-derived progenitor cells and other progenitor cells [...]
