Research Notes on Bone Marrow Cells Improve Heart Health
A recent study shows that placing bone marrow cells directly into the heart can help improve blood flow and decrease symptoms of angina. Researchers have recently discovered that patients who suffer from decreased blood flow to certain areas of the heart (chronic myocardial ischemia) may benefit from bone marrow cell therapy. Patients who participated in the study and underwent bone marrow cell therapy showed an increase in the left ventricle's pumping ability, as well as an improved quality of life.1
Fast Facts:
- This study used only male patients.2
- Bone marrow cells were injected directly into the damaged area of the heart.3
- Men undergoing bone marrow cell injection also reported an increased ability to exercise, which can lead to improvements in other health conditions.3
