Paracrine Mechanisms of Bone Marrow Stem Cell Signalling in Chronic Heart Failure

NCT01086787 · Status: UNKNOWN · Type: OBSERVATIONAL · Enrollment: 125

Last updated 2010-06-11

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The investigators hypothesize that chronic heart failure is associated with a general stem cell dysfunction, which translates into reduced paracrine function of adult stem cells from patients with chronic heart failure as compared to patients with preserved systolic function.
