Global gene expression analysis in nonfailing and failing myocardium pre- and postpulsatile and nonpulsatile ventricular assist device support
12 May 2010
Abstract excerpt
Mechanical unloading by ventricular assist devices (VAD) leads to significant gene expression changes often summarized as reverse remodeling. However, little is known on individual transcriptome changes during VAD support and its relationship to nonfailing hearts (NF). In addition no data are available for the transcriptome regulation during nonpulsatile VAD support. Therefore we analyzed the gene expression...
