Human cardiac mesoangioblasts isolated from hypertrophic cardiomyopathies are greatly reduced in proliferation and differentiation potency
20 May 2009
Abstract excerpt
AIMS: Our objective was to test whether progenitor cell proliferation and differentiation potential may vary depending upon the disease of the donor. METHODS AND RESULTS: Human cardiac mesoangioblasts were isolated from cardiac muscle biopsies of patients undergoing open heart surgery for correction of mitral regurgitation following an acute myocardial infarction (MR-MI) or correction of mitral and aortic...
