Title: Evaluation the Side Effects of Repeated Bone Marrow Derived Mono Nuclear Stem Cells Transplantation in Patients With Lower Limb Ischemic Ulcer
Brief Summary: Critical limb ischemia (CLI) results from severe occlusive disease that impairs distal limb perfusion to the point where oxygen delivery is no longer adequate to meet the metabolic needs of the tissue, even under resting conditions. The limits of peripheral artery disease (PAD) compensatory mechanisms, such as distal vasodilatation and collateral formation, have been exceeded at this point. PAD is a widespread disease, affecting up to 15% of all adults older than 55 years. Formation of true new blood vessels, or angiogenesis, and development of collateral vessels from preexisting blood vessels, or arteriogenesis, is important in the pathophysiology of vascular disease. By stimulating these processes the investigators might be able to provide an alternative treatment strategy for patients with lower limb ischemia. In response to tissue injury and remodeling, neovascularization usually occurs via the proliferation and migration of progenitor endothelial cells (EPC) from preexisting vasculature. Indeed, recent studies have shown that bone-marrow mononuclear cell (BM-MNC) implantation increases collateral vessel formation in patients with limb ischemia. So the investigators determine to evaluate the efficacy of repeated MNC transplantation in patients with ischemic lower limb.


Options:
A: Inclusion Criteria:

* Rutherford scale of 4-5

* surgical or endovascular procedures are considered unlikely to have successful long-term revascularization, or have failed
* more than 4 weeks of critical limb ischemia

Exclusion Criteria:

* within 3 months of an acute myocardial infarction
* any contraindication for the administration of granulocyte colony stimulating factor (G-CSF)

* Documented PAD (By Ankle-Brachial Indices or Angiographically)
* Clinically stable (at least 2 months) history of intermittent claudication with no change in symptom severity in the 2 months prior to screening.
* On stable statin therapy for previous 3 months.
* Peak Walking Time (PWT) between 1 and 12 minutes on a standardized Gardner treadmill protocol.
* A Doppler-derived ankle-brachial index (ABI) of \< 0.85 in the symptomatic limb after 10 minutes of rest at screening. For subjects with an ABI of \>1.3 (non-compressible arteries) a Toe-Brachial Index (TBI) of \< 0.70 must be obtained for subject qualification, or if ABI is \> 0.85 to 1.0 , and a reduction of 20% in ABI measured within 1 minute of treadmill testing.
* On appropriate and stable medical therapy for atherosclerosis for at least 2 months.
* Able to give informed consent.
* Diabetics with a dilated eye exam excluding proliferative retinopathy in the previous 12 months.

Exclusion Criteria:

* Recent or current active infections (treated with antibiotics).
* Recent (3 months) change in statin therapy
* Critical limb ischemia either chronic (category 3 and 4 of SVS classification) or acute ischemia manifested by rest pain, ulceration, or gangrene.
* Lower extremity vascular surgery, angioplasty or lumbar sympathectomy within 3 months of enrollment.
* Participation in a structured exercise treatment protocol within 3 months of enrollment.
* Prior myeloid cancer.
* Unstable angina, myocardial infarction, TIA, stroke or revascularization in the preceding 4 months.
* Severe heart failure (Class III or IV), heart muscle disease or atrial fibrillation.
* Limitation on exercise for symptoms other than intermittent claudication such as arthritis or dyspnea.
* Uncontrolled diabetes mellitus (defined as HbA1c \> 10.0).
* Chronic renal disease (creatinine of \>2.5 mg/dl) or hepatic disease (\> 3 X elevations in AST and ALT).
* Ophthalmologic conditions associated with a neo-vascular response.
* Alcohol or drug abuse, or any other disease process that, in the opinion of the PI, will interfere with the ability of the patient to participate in the study.
C: Inclusion Criteria:

* Patients 18 years of age or greater with atherosclerotic vascular disease that is viewed as not readily amenable to reconstructive surgery and Rutherford Category 4 ischemia (ischemic rest pain) and Rutherford Category 5 ischemia (ulceration or tissue necrosis) and by the judgment of their referring physician are not reasonable candidates for revascularization options of either percutaneous balloon angioplasty or a surgical revascularization.
* Objective evidence of severe peripheral arterial disease will include an ankle brachial index (ABI) of less than 0.5, or, in the case of patients who have vessels calcified and thereby "non-compressible" vessels metatarsal pulse volume recording (PVR) that is flat or barely pulsatile in the diseased limb on two consecutive examinations performed at least one week apart.
* Patients competent to give informed consent.
* No active malignant disease that could involve the bone marrow, or history of treatment of malignant disease that could have damaged the bone marrow.
* Before being accepted for the study the patient must be screened for human immunodeficiency virus, hepatitis B virus, hepatitis C virus, human transmissible spongiform encephalopathy, including Creutzfeldt-Jacob Disease, Treponema pallidum, and have a negative standard infectious disease panel including a CMV PCR test.
* Patients who are hemodynamically stable.

Exclusion Criteria:

* Patients with poorly controlled diabetes mellitus (HbA1C \> 8%)
* Patients with renal insufficiency (creatinine \> 2.5).
* Patients with evidence of infectious disease as determined by e. above or other medical findings.
* Pregnant women (women capable of childbearing must have a negative pregnancy test).
* Patients with cognitive impairments.
* Other comorbid disease that would be expected to result in less than one year life expectancy
* Past malignancy or history of chemotherapy or radiation affecting the bone marrow.

* Infection as evidenced by WBC count of \>15,000 and/or temperature \>38 degrees C. Large area of cellulitis in the afflicted limb that in the opinion of the investigators would require the institution of antibiotics OR evidence of osteomyelitis corroborated by radiographic or scintigraphic examination
