Summary | Implantation of three- and five-layered myoblast sheets yields favorable results, with better improvement of cardiac function, induction of angiogenesis, more elastic fibers, and less fibrosis. Thus, layered myoblast sheets, in optimal numbers, may attenuate adverse cardiac remodeling of the infarcted heart. |
