Abstract
Background: Cardiac cells regeneration and stem cell therapy have shown a lot of progression in the recent years. Understanding the new technological advances in cell therapy will ultimately allow us to achieve a goal of cellbased cardiac repair.
Objective: in our paper we aim to assess the recent literatures published in this field and provide a simple yet a comprehensive review.
Methods: PubMed database was used for articles selection, and the following keys used in the mesh {skeletal myoblasts, Cardiomyopathies, Ischemic Heart Disease, and Myocardial Infarction}. A total of 47 articles were enrolled according to our inclusion and exclusion criteria.
Conclusion: SKM treatment of IHD have been progressed since its beginning, a lot of obstacles have been solved, but still significant work need to be done to overcome the remaining ones. The recent results are very encouraging, and promising to emphasize more in this filed.
