Journal ArticleDOI

SDF-1 expression by mesenchymal stem cells results in trophic support of cardiac myocytes after myocardial infarction

TL;DR: The results indicate that stem cell transplantation may have significant beneficial effects on injured organ function independent of tissue regeneration and identify SDF‐1:CXCR4 binding as a novel target for myocardial preservation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Granulocyte colony stimulating factor in patients with large acute myocardial infarction: Results of a pilot dose-escalation randomized trial

TL;DR: Despite demonstrated mobilization of precursor stem cells in a timely fashion, in this small, pilot-scale randomized trial involving patients with large myocardial infarction, it was unable to demonstrate improvement in left ventricular function at 30 days.
Journal Article

Asymptomatic acute inferior ST elevation myocardial infarction from thermal injury complicating radiofrequency ablation for atrioventricular re-entrant tachycardia.

TL;DR: An unusual mechanism leading to acute myocardial infarction as a complication of a commonly performed electrophysiology procedure that should be recognized by both interventionalists and electrophYSiologists and treated aggressively with percutaneous revascularization is presented.
