Regenerative therapy has rapidly developed as one of the most
promising treatments for patients suffering from severe heart
failure. Autologous bone marrow-derived cells and cardiac stem
cells have been clinically applied for cell injection therapy for
heart failure. As a next-generation therapy, tissue-engineered
myocardial-patch transplantation has also been started clinically.
As further advanced therapy, several researchers have started to
fabricate three-dimensional beating myocardial tissues. One of the
main problems in myocardial tissue engineering is
neovascularization within the tissues during scale-up. Several
innovative technologies have been developed to overcome the
vascularization problem. This book broadly summarizes myocardial
tissue engineering and regenerative medicine, which consists of
myocardial cell sources, cell therapy for damaged hearts, and
tissue engineering technologies for fabricating beating hearts.
With respect to myocardial cell source, it focuses on cardiac cells
differentiated from embryonic stem and induced pluripotent stem
cells. It describes the remarkable results obtained in the past and
the present to control neovascularization and presents the future
challenges in myocardial tissue engineering research.
