Thesis
Cardiosphere-derived stem cell culture, characterisation and labelling for in vivo testing in the infarcted heart
- Abstract:
-
Cardiac stem cells (CSCs), isolated from heart tissue explants and expanded via the formation of cardiospheres (Csp), are a promising candidate for cell therapy to prevent heart failure following myocardial infarction. To allow early administration to patients, isolation and expansion of CSCs must be performed in the shortest time possible. Hence, this project aimed to optimize culture conditions and characterize the cardiac explant-derived cells (EDCs), Csp and Csp-derived cells (CDCs) produ...
