The present invention relates to the use of compounds which enhance the transcription of endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) for treating stem and progenitor cells in the cell therapy of patients with ischemic heart diseases such as coronary heart disease or ischemic cardiomyopathy. Treatment of such cells which are isolated from bone marrow, for example, with an eNOS transcription enhancer prior to their administration improves their functional activity and ameliorates neovascularization of the heart and cardiac regeneration.
本发明涉及使用增强内皮型
一氧化氮合酶(eNOS)转录的化合物,用于治疗缺血性心脏病患者的干细胞和祖细胞的细胞治疗,例如冠心病或缺血性心肌病。例如,对从骨髓中分离出来的这些细胞进行eNOS转录增强剂的处理,然后再进行其输注,可以提高它们的功能活性并改善心脏的新生血管生成和心脏再生。
