Angiogenic cell therapy for critical limb ischemia: an update on concepts and trials.

Abstract excerpt

Therapeutic neovascularization is a novel approach used to salvage critically ischemic limbs that are not amenable to conventional treatments. Initial efforts were based on single injections of angiogenic factors but there is now a realization that delivering angiogenic cells is more likely to achieve effective revascularization. Clinical studies to date have mostly used mixtures of mononuclear cells harvested...
