Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Regenerative therapy has recently emerged for treating cardiovascular diseases, and numerous preclinical and clinical studies using various types of stem cells are being conducted. For example, induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cells represent an unlimited source of a variety of cells because of their great potential for differentiation and are therefore one of the most promising sources of cells for cardiovascular regenerative therapy.

This Special Issue invites both original articles and reviews, providing the readers with a comprehensive elucidation about cardiovascular regenerative therapy, tissue engineering, stem cell therapy, and stem cell biology.
