Transdifferentiation of blood-derived human adult endothelial progenitor cells into functionally active cardiomyocytes [PDF]
Background - Further to promoting angiogenesis, cell therapy may be an approach for cardiac regeneration. Recent studies suggest that progenitor cells can transdifferentiate into other lineages. However, the transdifferentiation potential of endothelial

Cardiac Fibroblasts and Myocardial Regeneration [PDF]
The billions of cardiomyocytes lost to acute myocardial infarction (MI) cannot be replaced by the limited regenerative capacity of adult mammalian hearts, and despite decades of research, there are still no clinically effective therapies for remuscularizing and restoring damaged myocardial tissue.

Muscle atrophy is a common complication of heart failure. At present, there is no specific treatment to reverse the course of muscle atrophy. Exercise training, due to the safety and easy operation, is a recommended therapy for muscle atrophy induced by ...

Regulation of Cardiomyocyte Proliferation by microRNAs and Small Molecules [PDF]
Understanding the molecular mechanisms regulating cardiac cell proliferation during the embryonic, fetal and adult life holds a paramount importance in view of developing innovative strategies aimed at inducing myocardial regeneration after cardiac ...

Cardiac stem cells: A promising treatment option for heart failure. [PDF]
Cardiovascular diseases are the most common cause of death in the world. The development of heart failure is mainly due to the loss of cardiomyocytes following myocardial infarction and the absence of endogenous myocardial repair.

Reprogramming for cardiac regeneration
Treatment of cardiovascular diseases remains challenging considering the limited regeneration capacity of the heart muscle. Developments of reprogramming strategies to create in vitro and in vivo cardiomyocytes have been the focus point of a considerable amount of research in the past decades. The choice of cells to employ, the state-of-the-art methods

Bone marrow-derived cells can acquire cardiac stem cells properties in damaged heart [PDF]
Experimental data suggest that cell-based therapies may be useful for cardiac regeneration following ischaemic heart disease. Bone marrow (BM) cells have been reported to contribute to tissue repair after myocardial infarction (MI) by a variety of ...
