Human mesenchymal stem cells

Multidisciplinary approach to myocardial regeneration: In vitro and in silico studies of stem cells behaviour

Stem cell therapy is a regenerative medicine technique consisting in
introducing new cells into a damaged tissue in order to restore it. In this paper we
present our multidisciplinary approach about the possible use of the Human
Mesenchymal Stem Cells in treating heart failure. A multidisciplinary team
composed by biologists, mathematicians, cardiologists and bioengineers was
selected in order to investigate the feasibility of repairing the necrotic tissue
damaged by myocardial infarction by means of Mesenchymal Stem Cells and to
