| Research Abstract |
Therapeutic angiogenesis by the implantation of autologous cells is a promising treatment for ischemic diseases. However, the poor retention of the cells after implantation into ischemic tissue is a major problem that related to poor potential of cell-based therapy. This study shows that hypoxic preconditioning enhances the therapeutic potential of implanted cells by increasing their retention. This approach is a short-term and simple method of enhancing the angiogenic potency of implanted cells. Further clinical trials are required to confirm the efficiency of this method.
