| Abstract | In the past few years, it has been established that the heart contains a reservoir of stem and progenitor cells. These cells are able to differentiate in cardiomyogenic, endothelial, and smooth muscle lineages in vitro and in vivo and, following injection into an infarcted myocardium, these cells prevent the remodeling of the left ventricle and improve cardiac function. The aim of the present study was the immunophenotypic characterization of resident stem cells in the tissue of a chronic left aneurism, an analysis of their localization, and distribution in various aneurism areas.Fifteen samples of aneurism tissue obtained surgically were analyzed. The number of cells positive for c-kit stem-cell marker was about 3327 ± 234 cells per 1 cm$^{3}$ tissue. Single cells were found in fibrous, muscle, and adipose parts of aneurism tissue. Most of the cells were revealed in fibrous tissue near large vessels; however, the coexpression of c-kit and markers of endothelial cells was not observed. C-kit-positive cells did not express CD34 and CD45 markers and, thereby, were not of hematopoietic origin. The majority of c-kit-positive cells expressed MDR1, another stem-cell marker. These c-kit-positive cells did not proliferate, since they did not express Ki67. About 20% of these cells expressed an inhibitor of cyclin-dependent kinase p21$^{cip/Waf1}$. C-kit cells did not express markers of cardiomyocytes (Nkx 2.5, Gata 4, Mef2c, α-actinin), endothelium (Ets 1, CD105, wW), and smooth muscle cells (Gata 6, SMA). Single-cell clusters made up of 70–100 c-kit-positive cells (in cell niches) were observed; however, no markers of cardiomyogenic differentiation were expressed in these cells. Thus, aneurism tissue of the left ventricle contains c-kit-positive cells that, are most likely resident cardiac stem cells; however, their regenerative capacity should be further explored. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
