Long term survival of human skeletal myoblast cells in a porcine heart model of chronic ischemia

Our project is intended to ascertain the feasibility, usefulness and survival of human skeletal myoblast (HSM) as donor cells for transplantation into damaged myocardium for cardiac repair. Furthermore, the potential of HSM as exogenous gene carriers has also been determined.
