Can cold or heat shock improve skeletal myoblast engraftment in infarcted myocardium?
These data confirm the high death rate of in-scar transplanted myoblasts, demonstrate the ability of those that survive to proliferate and differentiate along the myogenic pathway but do not support the efficacy of either Cryo or HS for increasing the ultimate magnitude of myoblast engraftment.
Among CAD patients in Taiwan, those with low HDL-C and normal/underweight had higher risk of mortality.
