Left ventricular function following BMMC therapy. (A) Representative M-mode images of heart at 5 weeks after LAD ligation with administration of control BMMCs (left), db/db BMMCs (middle), or PBS control (right). (B) Quantification of left ventricular fractional shortening (LVFS) demonstrated a significant improvement at 5 weeks post-MI in animals receiving control BMMCs compared to db/db BMMCs or PBS (*P < 0.05). Abbreviations: M-mode, motion mode; PBS, phosphate-buffered saline; LAD, left anterior descending.
