Autologous bone marrow stem cell transplantation for acute myocardial infarction in 27 cases: Short-term curative effects / 中国组织工程研究

ABSTRACT

BACKGROUND: Recent researches demonstrate that transplantation of bone marrow stem cells in the area of myocardial infarction can directionally differentiate into myocardial cells having normal physiological function and can promote newborn vascularization so as to repair infarction myocardium and improve injured cardiac function.OBJECTIVE: To observe short-term clinical effect of autologous bone marrow stem cell transplantation (ABMSCT) in percutaneous coronary artery on the treatment of acute myocardial infarction.DESIGN: Self-control study.SETTING: Department of Cardiology, Xiangtan Central Hospital.PARTICIPANTS: A total of 27 patients with acute myocardial infarction, including 16 males and 11 females, were selected from Department of Cardiology, Xiangtan Central Hospital from June 2004 to December 2006. Their ages coronary artery was finished after onset emergently; in addition, blood flow of infraction related vessels recovered to grade TIMI3. All patients provided the confirmed consent.METHODS: Operative procedure All patients were performed with emergently interventional therapy of coronary artery after onset of acute myocardial infarction. One week later, percutaneous cavity tube technique was used to establish infarction related arterial pathway, and guiding filament was used to send micro-perfusion tube into stents. And then,separated bone marrow stem cell suspension was poured through central cavity of micro-tube into the distal end of infarction vessels. Operative evaluation Dynamic electrocardiogram was evaluated for 24 hours before and after transplantation; in addition, left ventricular ejection fraction and myocardial perfusion defect scores were detected before and at 6 and 12 months after transplantation; otherwise, recovery state and complication were observed in follow up at 6 and 12 months after operation.defect scores At 6 and 12 months after operation, left ventricular ejection fraction was higher than that before transplantation, and there was significant difference before and after transplantation (P＜0.05). While, myocardial perfusion defect scores were lower than those before transplantation, and there was significant difference before and arrhythmia were not found out, cardiac arrhythmia was not increased, and cardiac arrhythmia combining with malignancy not have any complications and in-stent constriction after operation.
