This editorial refers to ‘The acute and long-term effects of intracoronary Stem cell Transplantation in 191 patients with chronic heARt failure: the STAR-heart study’by B.-E. Strauer et al., and ‘New insights into paracrine mechanisms of human cardiac progenitor cells’ by H. Maxeiner et al. both published in this issue on pages 721 and 730.Heart failure (HF) is a leading public health problem resulting in an increased risk of cardiovascular complications and mortality. Despite advances in medical therapy, the prevalence of HF is still increasing. The Framingham study demonstrated that the life time risk for developing HF is one in five for both men and women. 1 Evidence-based treatment of chronic HF is mainly focused on suppressing the chronic neurohormonal activation, which may prevent the deterioration of heart function. 2 However, despite many therapeutic strategies patients diagnosed with HF have a poor prognosis. Conventional medical strategies for the treatment of HF due to myocardial infarction (MI) do not attempt to correct the underlying cause (ie loss of viable or functional myocardial tissue), raising a need for strategies aimed at myocardial regeneration and repair. Therefore novel approaches to increase the number of functioning cardiac muscle cells in the failing heart might open new avenues for the treatment of patients with advanced HF.
