Chamber-enriched gene expression profiles in failing human hearts with reduced ejection fraction
Abstract Heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) constitutes 50% of HF hospitalizations and is characterized by high rates of mortality. To explore the underlying mechanisms of HFrEF etiology and progression, we studied the molecular and cellular differences in four chambers of non-fail...
