Cell Sheets

One patient in Osaka was recovered from his heart disease. He cured his sickness by implanting three layers of "cell sheets" which were made from his cells in his legs. He had a sickness of the big heart that cannot pump out his blood efficiently. Therefore he needed to place his strong cell into his heart. He was the first successor in the world using the cell sheets. I believe this is good treatment for younger kids because this cell sheet only urge the movement of heart not doing by itself. And it is their own cells which cause less problems. Then we can have less surgery. As the matter of fact, the possibility of success is low. I consider that future treatment of heart disease will be this cell sheets. With the benefit of less harm, I think this is eligible for the cure.
