Although myocardial ischaemia usually manifests as a consequence of atherosclerosis-
dependent obstructive epicardial coronary artery disease, a significant percentage of …

Administration of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) to diseased hearts improves cardiac
function and reduces scar. These effects occur via stimulation of endogenous repair …

Although tremendous progress has been made in conventional treatment for ischemic heart
disease, it still remains a major cause of death and disability. Cell-based therapeutics holds …

Adipose tissue (AT) is a highly heterogeneous organ. Beside the heterogeneity associated
to different tissue types (white, brown, and 'brite') and its location-related heterogeneity …

The chick chorioallantoic membrane (CAM) assay model of angiogenesis has been
highlighted as a relatively quick, low cost and effective model for the study of pro-angiogenic …

Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is currently one of the primary causes of mortality and
morbidity worldwide. Nanoparticles (NPs) are playing increasingly important roles in …

Rationale: Adipose-derived stem cells (ASCs) are a potential adult mesenchymal stem cell
source for restoring endothelial function in ischemic tissues. However, the mechanism that …

Vascular tissue engineering is an area of regenerative medicine that attempts to create
functional replacement tissue for defective segments of the vascular network. One approach …

Advances in early reperfusion therapies focused on the revascularization of the ischemic
tissues, in the last decades, lead to reduced mortality in acute myocardial infarction (MI) …

Intervention with mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) reveals a promising therapeutic tool to
treat transplantation and autoimmune disease due to their immunoregulation capability. But …
