IT LOOKS LIKE A COMPANY COMPOSED OF BIG NAME HOSPITALS IN THE US RECENTLY COMPLETED A STUDY SHOWING THAT ADULT STEM CELLS CAN HELP HEART ATTACK VICTIMS. TEXAS HEART INSTITUTE, MAYO CLINIC AND EMORY ARE AMONGST THE TEAM OF ALL STARS MENTIONED IN THIS ARTICLE. SINCE MOST OF THE ARTICLE IS SPOKEN IN DOCTOREZE (MEANING IT ISN'T WRITTEN FOR LAYMEN LIKE YOU AND ME), I WILL USE MY LINGUISTIC SKILLS TO TRANSLATE (I AM FLUENT IN MULTIPLE LANGUAGES).

Amorcyte, Inc. (Amorcyte) announced today the completion of the phase I clinical trial of its lead product, AMR-001 an autologous stem cell product for the treatment of damaged heart muscle following acute myocardial infarction (AMI).

TRANSLATION- AMORTCYTE USED ADULT STEM CELLS (THE PATIENT'S OWN) TO TREAT HEART ATTACK VICTIMS (PRESUMABLY WITHIN ONE WEEK OF THEIR HEART ATTACKS) IN A PHASE I TRIAL (TO DEMONSTRATE SAFETY).

Arshed A. Quyyumi, MD, FRCP, FACC, Professor of Medicine, Cardiology, at Emory University School of Medicine and the trial's principal investigator. This trial has demonstrated proof of principle for this type of cell-based therapy. We have shown that it is possible to take progenitor stem cells harvested and extracted from a patient's bone marrow shortly after a heart attack and deliver these cells back into the patient's heart with the intent of repairing the damaged heart muscle. We eagerly anticipate beginning a phase II trial.

TRANSLATION- THE TRIAL USING THE PATIENT'S OWN STEM CELLS WORKED! IT HELPED REPAIR DAMAGED HEART MUSCLE! I'M JUST NOT ALLOWED TO SAY THAT UNTIL WE FINISH A DOUBLE BLIND PHASE II TRIAL THAT SHOWS EFFICACY!- DM
