Suggests systemic inflammation may impair bone marrow regenerative capacity after AMI.
Do peripheral blood cytokines predict bone marrow endothelial progenitor cell colony outgrowth and cardiac function after acute myocardial infarction?
Increased peripheral blood IL-6 is associated with bone marrow impairment after AMI, which can be reversed in vitro by blocking IL-1 or IL-6 receptors, suggesting a potential therapeutic target to improve regenerative capacity.
