The source of the cells is the patients own fat or bone marrow or in some cases blood from the umbilical cord left over after a baby is born. None of these have any ethical issues and the stem cells havested are able to repair blood vessels and the heart itself in real people. This has been verified not only by improvements in symptoms, but, also objective lab tests such as the ejection fraction which falls so low before heart failure becomes fatal.

I am curious how you did it. I work on flies. Now, we want to use zebrafish to test the gene in blood or blood vessel. I totally have no idea. I am wondering if I can have your email address or request some zebrafish. Thank you for sharing your research! It is a really nice movie. I am curious how you did it.
