New Stem Cell Technique for Cardiac Regeneration

Overall Winner in the Cardiovascular Innovation Awards 2008
This new technique uses heart stem cells to repair the damage to the cardiac muscle caused by heart disease. In a heart attack, heart muscles die, yet existing treatments don't repair the damage to the muscle and have a limited effect on heart function. Professor Schneider was among the first to show that stem cells exist in heart muscle, and then developed techniques to purify progenitor cells from a patient's heart and grow them in a laboratory. THe Imperial College team proposes to graft the human cells into injured cardiac muscle, under clinically relevant conditions, to obtain safety and efficacy needed to justify a phase i human trial.
