Abstract excerpt
Resident cardiac progenitor cells have emerged as a potential source of adult stem cells for regeneration of damaged myocardium. Sca-1 cells, expressing Stem cell antigen-1 as a cell surface marker, are multipotent cells that were shown to differentiate into different cell types i.e. cardiomyocytes. Previous studies have reported that Sca-1 positive cells are able to home to the injured heart. However, the...
