Determining mechanisms of cardiomyocyte proliferation-driven vascularisation
Although survival rates after myocardial infarction (MI) have improved, permanent loss of heart muscle cells often results in progressive heart failure. Restoring blood supply through angiogenesis (the growth of new blood vessels) could protect vulnerable …
