The incidence of human autologous transplanted skeletal myoblast (SkM) cell death in ischemic myocardium was higher in the first few days after cell therapy. We proposed that human SkM treated by human stromal cell-derived factor (SDF-1α) protein or tranfected by SDF-1α, precondition them against oxidative or anoxic injury.
