Summary Provides a view into potential future applications of bone marrow derived stem cells in the field of cardiac repair. This work introduces the biologic underpinnings of hematopoietic cell transplantation, basic stem cell biology, immunobiology and histocompatibility, with emphasis on indications and results of transplantation for specific diseases
