Cardiosphere-derived cells improve function in the infarcted rat heart for at least 16 weeks--an MRI study.

AIMS: Endogenous cardiac progenitor cells, expanded from explants via cardiosphere formation, present a promising cell source to prevent heart failure following myocardial infarction. Here we used cine-magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) to track administered cardiosphere-derived cells (CDCs) and to me...
