DOI: 10.1002/jcp.27117
Abstract: Cardiac fibrosis is a pathological remodeling response to myocardial infarction (MI) and impairs cardiac contractility. Long noncoding RNA (lncRNA) metastasisāassociated lung adenocarcinoma transcript 1 (MALAT1) is increased in patients with MI. However, the functions of… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/7651_2020_300
Abstract: Myocardial fibrosis is a hallmark of cardiac remodeling, which can progressively lead to heart failure, a leading cause of death worldwide. The effector cells of fibrosis in the heart are cardiac fibroblasts (CFs). There is… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s00109-017-1529-1
Abstract: Wnt signaling is dysregulated in heart failure (HF) and may promote cardiac hypertrophy, fibrosis, and inflammation. Blocking the Wnt ligand Wnt5a prevents HF in animal models. However, the role of Wnt5a in human HF and… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s00395-022-00919-6
Abstract: Cardiac fibroblasts constitute the major cell type of the murine and human heart. Once activated, they contribute to an excessive deposition of extracellular matrix (ECM) leading to cardiac fibrosis and subsequently organ dysfunction. With the… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.biochi.2018.02.017
Abstract: Cyclosporin A (CsA) is an effective immunosuppressive agent, but its myocardial toxicity limits its widespread and long-term clinical application. In this study, CsA treatment led to damages in myocardial fiber structure, an increase in myocardial… read more here.
