Abstract excerpt
Few reports have examined the effects of adult bone marrow multipotent stromal cells (MSCs) on large animals, and no useful method has been established for MSC implantation. In this study, we investigate the effects of MSC infusion from the coronary vein in a swine model of chronic myocardial infarction (MI). MI was induced in domestic swine by placing beads in the left coronary artery. Bone marrow cells were...
