Improvement of Cardiac Function in Mouse Myocardial Infarction after Transplantation of Epigenetically-Modified Bone Marrow Progenitor Cells
22 Jul 2011
Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: To study usefulness of bone marrow progenitor cells (BPCs) epigenetically altered by chromatin modifying agents in mediating heart repair after myocardial infarction in mice. METHODS AND RESULTS: We tested the therapeutic efficacy of bone marrow progenitor cells treated with the clinically-used chromatin modifying agents Trichostatin A (TSA, histone deacetylase inhibitor) and 5Aza-2-deoxycytidine (Aza,...
