Novel tissue engineering strategies based on the combination of the polymeric devices and adult stem cells for cardiac repair
Cardiovascular diseases (CVD) are the leading cause of death worldwide. Among them, myocardial infarction (MI) is the main CVDs, causing 7.4 million deaths each year. The current therapies for MI are palliative rather than regenerative. Since that, the tissue engineering (TE) strategy has grown inve...
