Abstract (original English)
Cardiac regeneration strategies and de novo generation of cardiomyocytes have long been significant areas of research interest in cardiovascular medicine. In this review, we outline a variety of common cell sources and methods used to regenerate cardiomyocytes and highlight the important role that key Circulation Research articles have played in this flourishing field.
What this study does not prove
- • This study does not prove SVF is an approved treatment or a replacement for standard care.
