Clinical trials with autologous adipose-derived stem cell (AdSC) therapy for ischemic heart diseases (IHDs) are ongoing. However, little is known about combinational therapeutic effect of AdSCs and statin poly(lactic-co-glycolic) acid (PLGA) nanoparticles on the ischemic myocardium. We investigated the hypothesis
