Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Little is known about the potentially unfavorable effects of mesenchymal stromal cell (MSC) activation on the heart. MSCs can respond to tissue injury by anti- or proinflammatory activation. We aimed to study the potential negative interaction between left ventricular dysfunction (LVD) and MSC activation. METHODS: We isolated MSCs from cardiac and subcutaneous fat tissues of mice with LVD 28 days...
