Novel Treatment Measures of Acute Myocardial Infarction: A Review (original) (raw)
2015, American-Eurasian Journal of Toxicological Sciences
Myocardial infarction is the leading cause of congestive heart failure and death in most developed and developing countries. This review focuses on novel treatment methods like stem cell therapy and nutritional factors projecting towards treatment of acute myocardial infarction. Stem cell therapy for conditions characterized by myocyte loss in myocardial infarction and heart failure is intuitively appealing. Stem cell therapy, initially introduced as a novel approach to regenerate injured cardiac myocytes, has now been widely gaining popularity as a feasible strategy for repairing injured myocardial muscle tissue. In certain cases inefficient cellular metabolism and blood borne nutrients is important factor in determining whether cardiac pathology will develop or not. Metabolic dysfunction could result from intracellular deficiencies of magnesium, coenzyme Q 10 , carnitine and certain B vitamins, nutrients which play a role in synthesis of ATP. Nutritional treatment is potentially e...
