The biological basis for cardiac repair after myocardial infarction: from inflammation to fibrosis

SD Prabhu, NG Frangogiannis - Circulation research, 2016 - Am Heart Assoc
In adult mammals, massive sudden loss of cardiomyocytes after infarction overwhelms the
limited regenerative capacity of the myocardium, resulting in the formation of a collagen …

Inflammatory and fibrotic responses of cardiac fibroblasts to myocardial damage associated molecular patterns (DAMPs)

NA Turner - Journal of molecular and cellular cardiology, 2016 - Elsevier
Cardiac fibroblasts (CF) are well-established as key regulators of extracellular matrix (ECM)
