Immediate Intracoronary Delivery of Human Umbilical Cord Mesenchymal Stem Cells Reduces Myocardial Injury by Regulating the Inflammatory Process via Cell-Cell Contact with T Lymphocytes

To investigate the effects of human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cell (HUCMSC) delivery on the acute inflammatory stage of ischemia reperfusion injury, the authors transplanted HUCMSCs or HUCMSCs with cyclosporin A via the coronary artery simultaneously during ischemia reperfusion in pigs.
