BACKGROUND: Recent researches demonstrate that transplantation of bone marrow stem cells in the area of myocardial infarction can directionally differentiate into myocardial cells having normal physiological function and can promote newborn vascularization so as to repair infarction myocardium and improve injured cardiac function.OBJECTIVE: To observe short-term clinical effect of autologous bone marrow stem cell transplantation (ABMSCT) in percutaneous coronary artery on the treatment of acute myocardial infarction.DESIGN: Self-control study.SETTING: Department of Cardiology, Xiangtan Central Hospital.PARTICIPANTS: A total of 27 patients with acute myocardial infarction, including 16 males and 11 females, were selected from Department of Cardiology, Xiangtan Central Hospital from June 2004 to December 2006. Their ages coronary artery was finished after onset emergently; in addition, blood flow of infraction related vessels recovered to grade TIMI3. All patients provided the confirmed consent.METHODS: Operative procedure: All patients were performed with emergently interventional therapy of coronary artery after onset of acute myocardial infarction. One week later, percutaneous cavity tube technique was used to establish infarction related arterial pathway, and guiding filament was used to send micro-perfusion tube into stents. And then,separated bone marrow stem cell suspension was poured through central cavity of micro-tube into the distal end of infarction vessels. Operative evaluation: Dynamic electrocardiogram was evaluated for 24 hours before and after transplantation; in addition, left ventricular ejection fraction and myocardial perfusion defect scores were detected before and at 6 and 12 months after transplantation; otherwise, recovery state and complication were observed in follow up at 6 and 12 months after operation.defect scores: At 6 and 12 months after operation, left ventricular ejection fraction was higher than that before transplantation, and there was significant difference before and after transplantation (P＜0.05). While, myocardial perfusion defect scores were lower than those before transplantation, and there was significant difference before and arrhythmia were not found out, cardiac arrhythmia was not increased, and cardiac arrhythmia combining with malignancy not have any complications and in-stent constriction after operation.

0.05).Myocardial perfusion defect scores were decreased significantly from 14.8?3.0 to 10.5?1.8(P

ObjectiveTo compare the effects on left ventricular remodeling of bone marrow mononuclear cells transplantation one week and three months after acute myocardial infarction.MethodsAcute myocardial infarction models were successfully established in 15 swine,which were randomly divided into three groups:placebo group,early transplantation group and late trasplantation group.One week after model had been established,early transplantation group underwent bone marrow mononuclear cells transplantation,and then so did the late trasplantation group three months after acute myocardial infarction.B-ultrasound and single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) examinations were performed to assess the left ventricular end diastolic dimension( LVd),left ventricular end diastolic volume(EDV) and left ventricular ejection fraction(EF) before and one week,three months,six months after acute myocardial infarction.ResultsThe LVd of late transplantation group [ (54.20:t:3.70) mm] was lower than placebo group [ (63.20 ±5.63)mm],but higher than early transplantation group [ (47.40 ± 1.14)mm].The EDV of late transplantation group [ ( 163.00 ±6.96)ml] was lower than placebo group [ (209.40 ± 18.69)ml],but higher than early transplantation group [ ( 135.40 ± 4.93 ) ml ].The EF of late transplantation group (0.25 ±0.02) was higher than placebo group (0.19 ±0.02),but lower than early transplantation group (0.37 ±0.02).ConclusionsBone marrow mononuclear cells transplantation can alleviate progressing ventricular remodeling,even it is performed three month after acute myocardial infarction,but its therapeutic effects are inferior to early transplantation's.

Objective To investigate the effects of bone marrow stem cells autologous transplantation on left ventricular remodeling after acute myocardial infarction. Methods Acute myocardial infarction models were successfully established in 10 swines, which were ran-dom divided into two groups, placebo group and trasplantation group. One week after operation, bone marrow stem cells autologous transplan-tation was performed, and control group was administrated with placebo. B-ultrasound and emission computed tomography aexaminations were performed to assess the left ventrieular end diastolic dimension, left ventricular tip wall thickness, left ventricular end diastolic volume and left ventricula ejection fraction before operation, one week, three months after acute myocardial infarction. Results Compared with that of control group, three months after acute myocardial infarction, transplantation group witnessed smaller left ventricular end diastolic dimension, thicker left ventricular tip wall, smaller left ventricular end diastolic volume and higher left ventricular ejection fraction. Conclusions Bone marrow autologous transplantation after acute myocardial infarction can alleviate left ventricular remodeling.
