Second Generation Cardiac Cell Therapy: Combining Cardiac Stem Cells and Circulating Angiogenic Cells for the Treatment of Ischemic Heart Disease

Blood-derived circulatory angiogenic cells (CACs) and resident cardiac stem cells (CSCs) have both been shown to improve cardiac function after myocardial infarction (MI) but the superiority of either cell type has long been an area of speculation with no definitive head-to-head trial.
