Abstract
The aim of this work was to investigate major unresolved issues in cardiac stem cell therapy, including the optimal types and doses, the optimal delivery methods, and the biosafety and efficacy. In a canine acute myocardial ischemia model, we studied differences in bone marrow mesenchymal stem cell (BM-MSCs) distribution when delivered by transendocardial (TE) or intracoronary (IC) route. 10 Adult dogs (6 TE, 4 IC) received DAPI-labeled allogenic BM-MSCs (100×l06 cells) 7 days after occlusion/reperfusion of the left anterior descending (LAD) and were sacrificed 14 days later.
