Cell sources in cardiac tissue engineering

In spite of numerous developments in the treatment of heart disease, especially myocardial infarction, many sufferers with heart attacks, experience chronic heart failure and are concerned with this sickness till loss of life. Several therapeutic strategies consisting of drug-delivery, the heart’s outside and inside gadget and eventually, heart transplantation is utilized to enhance the quality of life of patients, which are exceptionally costly for patients and health system. The expectation to rescue these patients has increased, by investigations in tissue engineering and cell-based therapy. Cardiovascular repair area is an exciting novel therapeutic idea. Cell therapies have revolutionized the approach of treating heart disease by the idea of developing cardiovascular tissue. Cell therapy strategies in this area can contain Direct injection or transplantation of cells into damaged tissue, tissue engineering techniques for the improvement of substitute tissue and healing procedures that prompt the heart to regenerate damaged tissues.The aim of this review study was to investigate and explain the type and role of stem cells in treating heart disease.
