Human Wharton’s Jelly-Derived Mesenchymal Stem Cells Minimally Improve the Growth Kinetics and Cardiomyocyte Differentiation of Aged Murine Cardiac c-kit Cells in In Vitro without Rejuvenating Effect

Human Wharton’s Jelly-Derived Mesenchymal Stem Cells Minimally Improve the Growth Kinetics and Cardiomyocyte Differentiation of Aged Murine Cardiac c-kit Cells in In Vitro without Rejuvenating Effect

Cardiac c-kit cells show promise in regenerating an injured heart. While heart disease commonly affects elderly patients, it is unclear if autologous cardiac c-kit cells are functionally competent and applicable to these patients. This study characterised cardiac c-kit cells (CCs) from aged mice and...
