Recent translational research in the emerging field of cardiac cell therapy has paved the way for novel experimental and clinical treatment strategies. However, neither the ideal source and type of cell nor the critical quantity and mode of application have yet been defined. This article summarizes the pre-clinical session of the fourth international symposium on stem cell therapy and applied cardiovascular biology (Madrid, Spain, 26th–27th April 2007), with the focus on application in the clinical arena.

Key Words: Heart failure • Myocardial infarction • Cytokines • Stem cells
