Abstract

Gene therapy and stem cell applications represent the forefront of innovative treatments in interventional cardiology, offering potential solutions for previously intractable cardiovascular conditions. This review explores the current advancements, mechanisms, and clinical implications of gene therapy and stem cell technologies in the treatment of ischemic heart disease, heart failure, and myocardial infarction. The integration of these modalities into interventional procedures has the potential to revolutionize patient outcomes by promoting myocardial repair, enhancing angiogenesis, and improving cardiac function. Despite promising preclinical and early clinical results, challenges such as delivery methods, immunogenicity, and long-term efficacy remain. This article provides a detailed analysis of the latest research, clinical trials, and future directions in the field, highlighting the transformative potential and obstacles that need to be addressed for widespread clinical adoption.
