Background

Wien, 11.01.2012

The Dying Stem Cell Hypothesis by Anker et al.

up to 25% of all transplanted cells are in the state of apoptosis

apoptotic cells induce transient immunosuppression

Myocardial Infarction

Necrosis

Attraction of immune cells

Secretion of pro-inflammatory cytokines

Amplification of inflammation

IL-1 IL-6 TNF-α
