Sustained Delivery Of Insulin-Like Growth Factor-1/Hepatocyte Growth Factor Promotes Endogenous Cardiac Repair And Regeneration In The Chronic Ischemic Heart
2013
Journal of the American College of Cardiology
The aim of this study was to test the sustained release of insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) and hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) using an injectable supramolecular hydrogel based on ureido-pyrimidinone (UPy) moieties in order to recruit and activate endogenous porcine cardiac stem/progenitor cells (epCSCs) towards the infarct borderzone leading to increased myocardial repair in a porcine model of chronic myocardial infarction (MI).
