Abstract
Chronic ischemic heart disease remains a major cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. Although revascularisation strategies and pharmaceutical therapy are able to delay ventricular remodelling, until today no therapeutic strategy is available that might prevent or even reverse this process of remodelling and consequent ventricular failure. In the recent past, experimental and clinical studies have demonstrated the capacity of bone marrow stem cells in cardiac repair and regeneration of compromised heart muscle. Several clinical trials showed the safety and efficacy of autologous bone marrow stem cell transplantation in the patients with acute myocardial infarction or chronic ischemic heart disease. Today the therapeutic strategy of cell administration during cardiac surgery or coronary artery intervention is entering the clinical practice. In the following Review we will highlight biological as well as methodological backgrounds, indications and clinical results of cardiac stem cell therapy for the treatment of acute myocardial infarction and chronic ischemic heart disease.
期刊介绍：
Current Pharmaceutical Biotechnology aims to cover all the latest and outstanding developments in Pharmaceutical Biotechnology. Each issue of the journal includes timely in-depth reviews, original research articles and letters written by leaders in the field, covering a range of current topics in scientific areas of Pharmaceutical Biotechnology. Invited and unsolicited review articles are welcome. The journal encourages contributions describing research at the interface of drug discovery and pharmacological applications, involving in vitro investigations and pre-clinical or clinical studies. Scientific areas within the scope of the journal include pharmaceutical chemistry, biochemistry and genetics, molecular and cellular biology, and polymer and materials sciences as they relate to pharmaceutical science and biotechnology. In addition, the journal also considers comprehensive studies and research advances pertaining food chemistry with pharmaceutical implication. Areas of interest include:
DNA/protein engineering and processing
Synthetic biotechnology
Omics (genomics, proteomics, metabolomics and systems biology)
Therapeutic biotechnology (gene therapy, peptide inhibitors, enzymes)
Drug delivery and targeting
Nanobiotechnology
Molecular pharmaceutics and molecular pharmacology
Analytical biotechnology (biosensing, advanced technology for detection of bioanalytes)
Pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics
Applied Microbiology
