hi,
I dont know whether this is a new article, but I think its a new one because it was released in July 2012 in the "regenerative medicine"-Journal..And I am happy to share...I also would like to read the full article. But now there is only an abstract online freely available...
Its adipose/stromal stem cells from the belly and seems to improve emphysema in animals.
Its evidence again that stem cells DO help us !
But here it helped more in a paracrinic way, meaning, it does secrete factors like HGF and CINC-1 to repair lung...

Results: ASC [= the stem cells]transplantation restored pulmonary function (arterial oxygen tension and alveolar–arterial oxygen tension difference) almost to that of normal animals. Enlargement of the alveolar airspaces was inhibited....
Conclusion: Not only HGF, but also CINC-1, secreted from transplanted and viable ASCs (=Stem cells) presumably contributed to lung repair through angiogenesis.
