Abstract:
Objective To manifest the angiogenic effect and heart function improvement of transplantation therapy through the experiments of porcines. Methods The coronary arteries of porcines were ligated to create myocardial infarction and then the bone marrow mononuclear cells were injected into the coronary artery. Three weeks after transplantation the heart function was measured by echocardiography and left ventricular angiography. The myocardial blood perfusion was measured by single photon emission computerized tomography. The number of microvessels was also counted. Results After the injection of bone marrow mononuclear cells, left ventricular angiography showed the increasing of dP/dt. The myocardial blood perfusion measured by single photon emission computerized tomography increased. Collateral vessels occurred, and the number of vessels was higher than that of the control (56.6?11.7/mm2 vs. 37.2?8.4/mm2,P
