flt1 inactivation promotes zebrafish cardiac regeneration by enhancing endothelial activity and limiting the fibrotic response
2024-09-11
Abstract excerpt
VEGFA administration has been explored as a pro-angiogenic therapy for cardiovascular diseases including heart failure for several years, but with little success. Here we investigate a different approach to augment VEGFA bioavailability: by deleting the VEGFA decoy receptor VEGFR1/FLT1, one can achieve more physiological VEGFA concentrations. We find that following cryoinjury, zebrafish flt1 mutant hearts display...
