DOI: 10.1161/circresaha.120.318277
Abstract: Supplemental Digital Content is available in the text. Rationale: Endogenously cycling adult cardiomyocytes increase after myocardial infarction (MI) but remain scarce and are generally thought not to contribute to myocardial function. However, this broadly held… read more here.
