Regeneration of heart muscle tissue: quantification of chimeric cardiomyocytes and endothelial cells following transplantation.

Abstract excerpt

Persuasive evidence has been recently provided that adult bone marrow (BM) cells exert greater plasticity than previously assumed. This review is focused on the quantification of mixed chimerism (mCh) in the hearts (cardiomyocytes and endothelial cells) of patients after orthotopic heart to heart transplantation (HHT) in comparison to full (unmanipulated) allogeneic BM and peripheral blood stem cell (PBSC)...
