Abstract

This review will summarize current knowledge regarding the effects of peptide growth factors on human cardiac myocytes in vitro and, when known, in vivo. Excellent reviews on this general topic which include studies of animal experimentation exist elsewhere [1,2], and thus this chapter will confine itself to human studies only.
