Artery Blockage. For this treatment?

At present if possible than go for angioplasty if it is feasible. And EPC is one kind of stem cell therapy. Over the past decade, the old dogma of a static and unchanging myocardium has been challenged, and advancements in our understanding of SC ( stem cell, EPC) biology have led to new models for cell transplantmediated repair. While promising research has progressed the field of autologous adult-derived SC transplantation for myocardial repair, there remain many disadvantages to these procedures that have yet to be resolved. Additional sources of SC, such as embryonic SC or umbilical cord blood, also show promise in the field of cardiac regeneration, and are being considered as well. Despite work that remains to be accomplished, there is already a multitude of promising evidence that use of SC, either from adult, umbilical cord, or embryonic sources, could provide optimal therapies to repair the damaged and failing heart. Better to undergo angioplasty.
