Joshua Hare, MD: Stem cells to repair myocardial infarcts
August 12, 2010
Interviewed by Steven Greer, MD
Dr. Joshua Hare, Director of the Interdisciplinary Stem Cell Institute, University of Miami Health System, discusses a recent study published testing stem cells to repair myocardial infarcts. They used a porcine infarct model to follow mesenchymal stem cells injected into MI’s. The infarct areas diminished and heart function improved. Moreover, the stem cells seemed to be the cause for the recovery rather than nonspecific inflammation.
