I have done a litterature search on pubmed regarding bone marrow cells converting to cardiomyocites and all I found was they do not. Can you assist me in this?

Bone marrow-derived hematopoietic cells generate cardiomyocytes at a low frequency through cell fusion, but not transdifferentiation.
Nat Med. 2004 May;10(5):494-501

Engraftment of engineered ES cell-derived cardiomyocytes but not BM cells restores contractile function to the infarcted myocardium.
