-- Two patients enrolled in Phase I clinical trials at Hopkins Final results of a study conducted at Johns Hopkins show that stem cell therapy can be used effectively to treat heart attacks, or myocardial infarction, in pigs. In just two months, stem cells harvested from another pig’s bone marrow and injected into the animal’s damaged heart restored heart function and repaired damaged heart muscle by 50 percent to 75 percent. http://www.hopkinsmedicine.org/Press_releases/2005/07_25_05.html Thanks Heidi, for the tip!
