TREATMENT OF PERIPHERAL VASCULAR DISEASE USING UMBILICAL CORD TISSUE-DERIVED CELLS

摘要

Compositions and methods of using cells derived from umbilical cord tissue, to stimulate and support angiogenesis, to improve blood flow, to regenerate, repair, and improve skeletal muscle damaged by a peripheral ischemic event, and to protect skeletal muscle from ischemic damage in peripheral vascular disease patients are disclosed. In particular, methods of treating a patient having a peripheral vascular disease with umbilical derived cells and fibrin glue are disclosed.
